How do you feel that your time as an administrator has contributed to becoming a super administrator:
I feel like I have been Admin long enough and want an upgrade. I have been Admin twice before for 2 - 3 months each time, if you didn't know. It was with a different name: Tjeerd. I have been in plenty of situations where I helped players get around on the server and they were happy after. I really like helping people and with Super Admin I can even train new staff members to become even better then me to clean up the server and make it a fun environment for everyone.

What makes you a good candidate for the super administrator team? ( in this part you can go as detailed as you want):

- Friendly
I am very friendly in-game and to other staff members. If someone has a problem they can come to me and I will help them with what I can.

- Active + Dedicated
I've been really active lately and planning on keeping it this way. My dedication to Zarp is enormous. I try to help the server get even better than it is now. I try to come up with ideas to make the server more fun, or try finding bugs so they can be fixed. I try to make it comfortable for new staff members, just talking to them in general helps a lot.

- Trust + Experience
I am trusted with powers and use them in a serious and adult way. In my opinion I have enough experience as an Admin. I have been Admin twice before in the past for 2 - 3 months. This shows that I'm experienced enough for the Super Administrator role in my opinion.

- Forums
I try to be as active as possible on the forums, from applying to deathrun apps to just simply reading report abuses and watch SA+ handeling them. I do this to learn from them.

Explain a situation as an administrator you encountered that was an obstacle that required the help of a lead team member but you had to work around it when no lead team member was available:
One time I was playing and 2 moderators started to argue trough admin chat about who was going to handle the AFK guy. I tried to calm them down but they didn't stop arguing. I wanted to contact an Sa+ but at that time I didn't have any in my friends list. So I tried again to calm them down. Then they finally stopped and listened to me. By then the AFK guy already left but atleast they stopped arguing.

Explain how you would review and handle an abuse report against another staff member:
Firstly I would reply something like "I will handle this!", so the other staff members know I'm handling this report.
Then I would read trough the report thoroughly, and check the evidence the players has given. After that I will contact the staff member to hear what happend from his point of view. This I would write down. Then at the end I would look at it once again and make a conclusion.

If its accepted:


If its denied:


Explain in detail how you would act in the following situation:
A staff member bans a user for an excessive amount of time, how do you approach the staff member to ensure that everyone is treated fairly?
First I would contact the staff member and say him that the ban length is for an excessive amount of time. I would explain what the right amount of time is in this situation. I would guide him trough the proces of reducing the ban length and give some tips on the right amount of time in certain situations.

Explain in detail how you would act in the following situation:
A staff member is dealing with a user but is struggling to do so in an appropriate manner. How would you resolve the situation?
I would help him with dealing this situation. I would first calm him down, so he can take on this situation. If he is stressed out he can't think straight and maybe give the player the wrong punishment. Then I would guide him trough the process of what to do. If it is as simple as warning someone, to banning a player I would help them. Then I would ask him if he needs any more explanation of the ulx commans he has.

Explain in detail how you would act in the following situation:
A staff member accuses another staff member of breaking rules, how would you help resolve the situation?
First I would contact the staff member who is accusing him for breaking rules trough private chat. I would ask what the story is and if he has any evidence. If they don't have evidence I can't take action against the other staff member. If he has evidence I would look at it. If you can clearly see that the staff member is breaking a rule I would say that he needs to make a report on the forums to report the staff member. This is so the lead team knows about the situation.

Explain in detail how you would act in the following situation:
A staff member acts in a disrespectful manner towards another staff member and or sparks an argument within the staff team. How do you resolve the situation?
First I would speak with the staff members seperately, to hear both sides of the story. Then I would let them speak to eachother in a room to fix the problem they have. If it can't be fixed by the easy way I am going to be harder on them. Telling them that what they are doing can lead to a demotion.

Explain in detail how you would act in the following situation:
You spot a staff member breaking rules to the point of harming other users, how do you approach the staff member?
First I would tell the staff member to stop breaking the rule. I would let an HA know about the situation. Then if he continues to break the rules with his powers I would contact an HA to demote the person so that he can't break rules again. Then in the next lead team meeting there will be a vote about if the staff member gets his powers back or not.

He asked me for things to improve on and I see literally nothing. The reason he is applying is because no one has given him anything to improve on, feel free to be the first.

Good luck TooSlow!

If he has nothing to improve on why hasn't he been accepted.... there is clearly something missing here

Currently I believe you are the 3rd best candidate for this position, however feel free to prove me wrong.
Good luck!

A Good Pianist wrote: Or not.
If the only thing he is missing is standing out from all the other mods (at least from my opinion) not a lot of people will know that and point it out so he can improve , so I'm pointing out the fact that you don't stand out enough TooSlow4U and you need to improve on that. Other than that you are a perfect candidate. Good luck!

Thanks for you advice Nickolas! The only thing is, I don't know how to improve that! If you can give me examples when I stand out that would be nice! Thanks again!

TooSlow4U wrote: There isn't one single thing you can do to improve on "standing out" but a lot of small little things that make it up, for example being willing to help out the server at any time is something that i think you already have. Talking to the Lead Team in team speak helps you stand out to them. One last thing is that , for example when i was a trouble in terrorist town administrator(before i got super admin) i had gained so much respect that staff members would ask me questions instead of the lead team because of how much trust i had gained in them.

Thanks for your answer! I'm already improving on talking to the LT! I already have some members that I can speak to very well. And ofcourse I try to be helpful to every player, but you already said that I did that : ) Thanks again!

Just bumping it for fun!
