DEATHRUN RELATED:

What is Ghosting? Give an example: Ghosting is a form of immoral "cheating" or bad etiquette in Deathrun whereby a player (who is usually dead), will communicate with a player that is alive and give them information that wouldn't otherwise be obtainable to the alive player. This information can be things such as which traps have been activated, or the location of other Deaths and Runners on the map. This gives them an unfair advantage, and, therefore, tarnishes the impartiality of the gameplay.

How would you deal with a disrespectful player?: I would firstly give them a verbal warning, ensuring that they understand that what they are doing is wrong, and that they know that they have been warned. Should the problem persist, then I will (powers permitting) mute them for an allotted amount of time (usually 5 minutes per say), muting them for 10, and then 15 if they continue to be disrespectful. However, if they are still disrespectful after the three mutes, then I would confer with other admins if they are available, and issue a temporary ban from the server (perhaps for 3 hours) and inform other admins.

Why should I be chosen for the role: I believe that my maturity, experience, and skillset place me above the other great applicants for this role. I have been playing on several Deathrun servers over the past few years, and even used to own one myself. I have been staff on multiple servers, and Zarp Gaming seems to be the best one yet. I really feel as though I could benefit from working with some of the amazing staff members (that I have been introduced to already), as well as bringing things that I have learnt from my several hundred hours on Deathrun, and make Zarp Gaming even better! I have loads of free time since I have finished college, and I would like to think that I will be able to join the servers at times where other admins may not be able to due to commitments.

Thank you for reading this application, and I look forward to hearing your response. See you in game!

Thanks again,

SwimminSteve

Keep up your activity man! Your application is also quite detailed. Good luck!

Detailed app, You're friendly ingame, Attitude is good, I feel you'd be a good candidate good luck!

Detailed app, good attitude, why not?

Keep up man ur great person

Thanks guys! Yeah I definitely have no plans to stop playing, I hope the admins see that too! Thanks for your feedback!

Thank you for your comment, I will take it on board!

Recent Punishment, also ignored the staff member when he was asking him why he broke the rule (Death Avoiding)
However, if you don't get anymore recents, i don't think that it should be that big of an issue

That punishment was minor, unsupported, and unsolicited. It also wasn't for malicious behaviour, and wasn't accompanied by any hardship or vulgar language or behaviour. This can hopefully be corroborated by everyone else who supports me in my application due to them seeing me for my suitability for staff, rather than an unfortunate occasion which need not be relevant, nor necessary.

I do thank you for mentioning it though, I take all comments on board!

Caught you death avoiding like 10 minutes ago

Been resolved and was established that things were unfortunate and unintentional. If necessary, I don't mind waiting to prove that I'm not that sort of person. Hopefully my history, present, and future will prove to you, like it has to everyone else, that I am a diligent individual, and that the past 10 minutes have no reflection on my behaviour and conduct as an overall player, nor my ability to perform my duty as staff. Thanks for your comment though, I love replies, whether positive or negative!

I'm thoroughly aware of what I did, but I am also aware of the reasons behind it, and the unfortunate aspects of the situation. As I've said before, I can apologise for what I've done, albeit it intentional or not, but as I know (and only I know), that I do not avoid being death intentionally, nor do I hate being death, I can't bring myself to show any more remorse from that, simply for the fact that I have been playing Deathrun for 4 years and know full well that I'm not that sort of person, and as such won't do it again. Had this been every time I am death, then perhaps. But as I have dozens of hours on this server and the 10 minute space in question is the only time (and with reasoning), I'm failing to see how this impacts my ability on being staff, that's all. As I said, however, I do welcome all comments and debate, so thank you for your input!

Thanks man! I completely understand why you and your admin team saw it appropriate to warn me etc, you are just doing your job and I respect that! What I did was wrong, but I am also glad that you can see past it and understand my intentions for the future! And you! You're a great person and I hope to see you in game soon!

Don't get wrong you was alright but then i noticed you got 3 warnings in the space of 2 hours all for the same reason DeathAvoid
Then you started to complain to me and eddie saying about how there was no evidence and you didn't do anything I don't feel you have the right kind of attitude to be a Moderator


This is just my opinion


Good Luck
