Now I’ve only seen you about 3 times and I haven’t seen you time farm but from what I’ve heard you do it a lot, if that’s something that the staff agree on then that must mean somethings wrong. I’m not against you I’m just pointing out the negatives for your improval. You still have a week.

I wouldn't use something that you don't even know is true as something against someone whilst voting. If you witness it then fine, but from experience people will exaggerate and cherry-pick stories if they have to.

Well unfortunately, the main fundamental element of timefarming, is just that,. farming. I do not intend to timefarm, therefore, I am not timefarming. It requires intent. I do not have that intent, therefore I do not timefarm, rather just spectate for long periods of time. I do admit this happens. However, it is for no more than 5% of my overall playtime, and there is always a good reason for me doing so. If any of the admins wish to question me each time, then I will be more than happy to provide an explanation. Nonetheless, I respect their opinions and the only thing that I can do is prove them wrong in future, something which I am currently doing, and intend to do throughout the rest of the week, hence the early application.

Thats what time farming is and you have an intent to be in spectator mode and not play. If you're not going to play then just disconnect

I agree with the spectator mode and not play, but never at any point did I intend to "farm time", therefore rendering it void. In addition, I was told by the very same admin team when I got pulled for "death avoiding" to go into spectator mode when I went AFK so I don't get caught for it, so I really can't win. Furthermore, A spectator mode seems pretty useless if the advice is to disconnect anyway. However, I respect what you have to say, and whilst I am not apologising for it, I do ureluctantly acknowledge your point, and I will consider such in future, thanks for your reply.

Considering how you've appropriately addressed the concerns surrounding your application and maintained maturity when certain members of staff were unable to do so themselves, I have no real concerns with allowing you a chance as moderator. Good luck.	SorIe Offline Marvelous Boarder Posts: 10840 Thanks received: 4296 Karma: 400

Thanks for applying for staff at ZARP Deathrun! During our weekly staff meeting your application, question answers, game trackers and in-game warnings are checked and then the staff team votes on your application.

Congratulations!

The staff team has voted to accept your application, which means you’re now a part of the ZARP Deathrun staff team.

Before you get started, an SuperAdmin + and possibly another Admin will help train you on the server and get you setup with your new rank. There’s also a handy guide created by the community which should help you get up to speed with your new menus & commands. And don’t forget you can always ask another staff member if you’re not sure about something

ZARP DeathRun Staff Meeting – Every Friday 7PM UTC

There’s a weekly staff meeting for the server at the above time, which is held on the ZARP Teamspeak server (IP: ts.zarpgaming.com). You now get a vote on the new staff members and we’ll keep you up to date with new events and server updates at the meeting.

Congratulations and thanks for supporting ZARP!
