How do you feel that your time as an administrator has contributed to becoming a super administrator: Teamspeak/forum presence and ablity to handle reports efficiently.
This is my 4th* SA application, and I will admit, the first two (or atleast one) were to see what I needed to do, to become a legible candicate for SA. I've been told three main things. Improve Teamspeak, forum and meeting presence. Since then I believe I have done just that. I check the forums every day after doing something, even in the middle of doing something. Other than those things I'm a typical admin, I've improved dramatically on handling reports, becoming less lenient in punishments, which is something often complained about. I also go into the teamspeak whenever I'm on my computer and have time to sit and talk with people, and I believe I'm heard in the weekly meetings.
What makes you a good candidate for the super administrator team?: I feel it is a better place for me than as an administrator
Well other than the fact that everyone would absolutely love to have me in the LT meetings, I think becoming LT would also be a better place than admin for me in this server. Seeing some of the other admins we have, I believe that there should be another level of "seniority" of "power" above that, which is SA.
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: Hacker suspicion that I had to wait for an SA to check on.
I had my suspicions that someone was hacking. I quickly messaged the discord in efforts to get a Super Administrator online, later private messaging one to get a quicker response, whilst I waited for them to get online I spectated the suspected hacker to collect evidence since that's all I felt I could do, and is all that I could do as an admin.
Explain how you would review and handle an abuse report against another staff member: By: Gathering evidence; Talking to the reported and reporter; Coming to a logical conclusion; Taking multiple factors into account.
Having had one against me, I would follow a very similar method. I'd reply to the report with "handling" if no-one is yet to and then read through the report. Look through the evidence, and if it doesn't sufficiently show the abuse or I feel it could've been taken out of context, I will get the reporter and reported into Teamspeak or some form of a group chat to talk it out. Whilst talking it out I'd be sure to keep it calm, relaxed and make sure that things stay that way throughout the issue. If however, the evidence is sufficient enough I would go about talking to the reported staff member, still asking for some kind of response as to why they were reported. Through that method, I feel I could efficiently decide whether or not it was abuse, and at that point deciding what punitive measures to take.
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?
There are lots of different reasons to ban someone, that I believe most of the Admins + are very familiar with. People say TTT staff are too lenient, some TTT staff say the same. I think this is fair, as even I have banned for too short. If I saw someone ban for much too long, perhaps accidentally or not. I'd simply ask them about it, see their reasoning behind it. If it was valid then I learned something, if it wasn't I'd convince them to have the ban taken away so they could then shorten it. 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?
For example, a staff member is acting very informally towards a reported player in an open chat, often dismissing what the reported player has to say and not coming to any reason or logical decision. I'd simply message them about it through admin chat or the "psay" command and make them question what they're doing, refreshing them on our ethos and then watching them continue with the rest of the situation. If I still feel it was improper I would intercept in the chat, give the correct punishment if any at all, talk to the reporter and reported player, and then the staff member involved afterwards about what they did wrong.
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?
I'd want evidence first. Not going any further without it and if they provided it, I'd then ask them to post a "Report abuse" on the forums towards them, rather than listening/watching them talk about it in the server whilst they continued to play or handle reports. 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?
Try to stop it as early on as possible, hopefully turning it either into banter or stopping it completely, as it would be unhealthy for two staff members to be sour with each other. If the feud continued then it would be resolved in a more formal manner, possibly involving a private Teamspeak talk or a text chat, dealing with it as soon as possible.
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?
I'd first remind them of our server rules, as well as our staff ethos. Possibly they're a fresh staff and aren't usually known for this, I wouldn't take it to the forums, just pull them out and remind them, a verbal warning as such. However, if it was a continually reckless staff member then I would gather evidence and be sure to post a "Report abuse", following the correct template as I did and ask a member of LT to deal with it.
TL;DR:
I'd make a great Super Administrator
Pros:
- Lot's of experience in staffing
- Engaged in the community
- Loved by many
Cons:
- Lack of language diversity (but I have google translate)
- Don't go on the teamspeak enough
- Haven't responded to any abuse reports myself

I'm ngl here, I would've voted yes for you for SA on prop hunt if you had more experience and you don't lack any on TTT so I don't see many reasons for you to be denied.

Great candidate, I see great potential in you. There are some things you could improve on ofcourse (everyone can improve) I would love to say them in TS. But they are just minor things, you've being handling things great and you're active on the forums as on TS
