Explain "Random Death Match" and give an example scenario:
Random Death Match (also known as RDM) is the act of killing someone without reason. This is not to be confused with assault which is illegal in the RP but not againt the rules. Reasons to kill someone are: raiding your base (lockpicking/keypad cracking), not leaving your base after a warning, following you after a number of warnings, shooting at you, have a hit on them etc. Any killing that is not provoked and doesn't have a reason behind it is RDM, this rule is here to stop you being repeatedly killed unfairly, and to make the gameplay enjoyable. An example of RDM is seeing someone that annoyed recently, walking up to them and killing them.

Explain "New Life Rule" and give an example scenario:
New Life Rule or NLR is a rule made up of 2 very simple elements, 1: To not go back to the general area to which you were killed at for 3 minutes after death, and 2: to not remember how or why you died. It's actually a very simple rule but is one of the most commonly broken due to the urge we all have to run back and kill our raiders, however it must be obeyed to improve everyone's gameplay. An example of NLR would be not selling someone an item due to them raiding your shop and killing them earlier.

Explain "Metagaming" and give an example scenario:
Metagaming is quite simply talking in character in the OOC (OUT of character) chat. /advert should be used for in game events, althought sometimes can be used for OOC purposes, like an admin advertising an event. It's very simple and not the biggest issue on the server as it's easily prooved but still an important rule none-the-less. An example of this would be saying "Drop 2k or die" in the OOC chat.

Explain how you would handle the following situation:
Player x accuses player y for RDMing him, the console log shows that player y killed player x.
I would ask for the reason player y killed played x, if he gave a reason use player x and the console to proove/disproove his response. If I cannot proove not disproove it no warning will be given, if it is prooven that it was RDM player y would recieve a warning, if it was prooven that player y did not RDm then player x would be given a verbal warning for wasting staff time.

Explain how you would handle the following situation:
Player x accuses player y for breaking NLR, the kills are pretty close together in console (a few lines apart) at a peak time.
I would first ask if player y would like to contend to this as it is not solid proof but very likely that NLR was broken. If he cannot contest it with a good reason then a warning will be given to player y, however if the kills were a little far apart (using common sense to decide) then it would just be a verbal warning given.

Explain how you would handle the following situation:
Player x calls for help in the OOC chat because his bank is being raided
Very simple, inform player x what metagaming is and give him a warning for it.

Why I should be chosen (longer answer expected here - at least 150 words):
I have been playing Zarp for a number of months now and have found it to be the best DarkRP server I could find. When I find really good servers like this one I feel I should contribute to it by helping out. I have been a moderator before on a Minecraft server but chose to leave the position due to the terrible quality of admins (not like Zarp of course ). I have a good understanding of the rules, I don't lie when I click "I agree to the rules". I always do my best to help people and would love to be able to take the ridiculous strain off of the F1 reports that I have noticed recently at times. I know I'm not the oldest person to apply but I am mature enough to take on this job. I really do love this server and want to be a part of it, helping people to have a fun time and an enjoyable gameplay experience for everyone. I really hope that you choose me to be a part of this awesome group of staff on a great server. Thanks very much for reading my application and know that, if you hire me, I won't let you down. I recently posted a mod app and it got denied purely because of my previous breaking of rules, so I took this criticism constructively and have not been warned since. I have worked hard to just play and help people as much as I can and hope that you can see that I've changed. Thank you very much for taking the time to read this, I won't let you down

Your application is in the wrong category General Discussion and you are using the wrong template
Use this one zarpgaming.com/index.php/forum/12-moderator-application

The app seems to be quite different to your old one and you have changed.
It would be nice to see you as mod, at least trial mod to give you a chance.
I personally vote up but really its the admins decision whether you get promoted or not.
Either way +Support from me

Wasn't aware of new format, changing now

You reposted your application in the correct section.
