TOPIC: [TTT Super Admin] Nepgear™'s Application

I feel that the time I spent as an Admin as well as a Moderator prepared me well for this position. In my time as an Admin I always tried to keep the server clear of rulebreakers and keep the fun activities on the server by interacting with the staff and the users. I had 1 abuse report against me, which didn't got handled, because the user didn't fill in the template, but I still looked into it and did listen to what the user had to say and what I could improve on in the future (read more on that here) and learned how to enforce the rule better. When someone was in need of help I always tried to help them, if it was a other staff member who struggled with a report or was it a user who didn't understand the rules of the server or the game. I even sometimes helped people writing an application for a staff member position, if they needed help. I helped choosing new staff members. I had a lot of fun on the server and tried the best to support it, but I feel like I could do more for the server in the position of a SuperAdmin.








I am always helpful and friendly to other people. Since I came on the server I tried to come along with as many people as possible, with staff as well with the user base. If someone had a question I was glad to help and support the person. I even looked over the newer mods as I was a mod by myself and tried to help by difficult situations or answer question when they got some. I did the same when I got Admin, when there was a newer Admin I looked a bit over them if they had trouble whether if they should ban a person or not(as an example). I always stay calm by handling reports or when I get insulted by a user. I am always open for criticism and glad to take it so that I can improve on it, to get a better staff member.




I usually check the forum multiple times per day and post something when I got something to say, as an example I respond to staff applications with criticism or why I don't think that they are ready for the position so that they can improve on those things to maybe get the position one day. I try to get some appeals but whenever I check the forums and see a appeal it is already taken by another staff member(feels bad man). When I see another TTT related post where someone is asking something I try to give them an answer when there isn't already an answer. For my Teamspeak activity, I am usually every day online on Teamspeak when I am playing TTT so if someone wants to talk to me or need help in any form I can help them.




Every time when I am handling a Report I try to understand both sides. I look into every report with care and even when someone didn't gave quite a good response, something along the line's like "What lol", I try to find out why they killed/tried to kill the person if they had a good reason for it, because I had this situation way too often that people just wrote that in the response and had a valid reason for kill/try to kill the person. When a person didn't have a valid reason to kill/try to kill the person I give them a fair punishment. My report-count was quite high when I started as a moderator and at the beginning when I was an admin, but is now rather low (I think around 100), because I am online at night hours when there are barely 10 people online and nobody is rulebreaking usually.




My past experiences from leading a staff team are from owning/moderating multiple Teamspeak servers. I had responsibilities such as looking for new good staff member as well as looking that no one is abusing there given administrative power's or if they are nice and polite to the player base. I even had some experiences on Zarp leading and helping other staff member, as I said previously I helped newer mods and admins with decision when they needed help and that gave me experiences in helping others too.




Since I became staff I always tried to play a lot on the server. I usually get more time than 4 hours per week, but I always had at least 4 hours per week. I doubt that I can play as much as I can now, because my studies are getting harder, but I am sure I will get more than 4 hours per week. I attended nearly every meeting since I became staff too.







The first scenario I can think of is when a hacker is on the server. I did not encounter that many hacker on the server, but when I encountered one I couldn't do anything due to that admins and moderator aren't allowed to punish for hacking. Normally I contacted a super admin or a head admin that they anti-cheat him and punish him for hacking, but you can't get an superadmin+ on the server all the time. When a hacker is online and he is rulebreaking, like Mass RDMing or RDMing you can punish them for that and you get rid of him pretty quick then, but when a hacker isn't rulebreaking this scenario gets a bit difficult. You can't punish him for RDM and you can't punish him for hacking, if I was a super admin I could easily anti-cheat him and punish him then.






I would look if the person who wrote the abuse report did fill in the template correctly and if they didn't tell them that they have to fill in the template. After they did all of that I would post that I am handling this abuse report that other staff member know that someone is handling this. I would then proceed with carefully reading through the report and reviewing the proof. I would contact the accused staff member and ask them about it and why they did this. After that I would contact the user, who reported the staff member, to hear their story. Then I would come to my conclusion, if the evidence is invalid or the staff member has some more evidence that proofs his innocent I would deny the report.





But if the evidence is valid or the staff member doesn't have some evidence to deny the given evidence I would accept this report then














I would contact the staff member through Steam/Discord and ask them why they banned him. After they give a good reason to why they banned him this long I would still check his rapsheet and if after checking the rapsheet everything is ok I will leave the ban as it is. However if the staff member does not give a good reason to why they banned the user for this amount of time I would then proceed to tell the staff member that this ban has a excessive length and ensure to tell him when to ban and how long to ban at any situation. After that I would lower the ban to the time I think is appropriate and try to contact the user that his ban has been lowered.





If the staff member is struggling with the user who is disrespecting or stubborn, because he is new or doesn't know how to handle the situation, I would just give them tips on how to handle this specific situation or take over if I have to. When the staff member is disrespectful against the user I would tell the staff member that he should not disrespect other players and tell them how to handle the situation correctly and ensure that this does not happen again. The third scenario I can think off is when a staff player is struggling with handling a report, I would just look in the chat, if a chat is open, and tell the staff member what he could do to resolve the situation.






I would first of listen to the staff who is accusing another staff. I would listen to what they have to say and ask for evidence and look at the evidence(if some were given). After that I would contact the accused staff and ask him about it. I would ask him why he did this and if he had a reason to do so or some other evidence that proves that his action were in the right. I would then come to my conclusion after that. If the accused staff member did indeed break the rules I would bring him up on the following lead team-meeting or talk to him and ensure that this doesn't happen again, whether the rule-break was significant or not. If the accused staff did nothing wrong or the evidence is invalid I would dismiss the report then.





I would tell them to calm down first. I would say to the disrespectful staff that his behaviour is not ok and that he should treat everyone on this server with respect. However when he continues to disrespect I would tell him to come on Teamspeak to talk with him and eventually bring him up on the lead team meeting. On the other scenario when they have an argument going on and both start to get heated I would tell to cool down a bit and maybe take a break, that they should go off the server and that they should talk about it the other day and that they should contact me when they want to talk. I would then start talking to both of them, when they calm down again, to understand them both and then try to resolve the situation in a spacer on Teamspeak.






I would tell them him to stop immediately with what he is doing and order him on Teamspeak to speak with him. After he comes on Teamspeak I will tell the staff what he did wrong and tell him that his behaviour is unacceptable and that a staff member should never act in this way. After that I would tell him to apologise to all the other player's he inflicted harm on and if the staff continues to break the rules and harm the user's I would bring him up in the lead team meeting.

Shows dedication to the server and puts much work & effort into it.

He is also in the top 3 in terms of report count across the staff team every week.

Knowing him for some time & judging from my experience from staffing with him on another TTT server I can tell that he'd be a great addition to the LT team of TTT.

I don't particularly see you as a stand-out administrator, nor do I see you handle anything forum related, nor have I seen you actively communicating with people in teamspeak, you need to be more active on teamspeak and the forums. Good luck though.

Good report, great guy from my first impressions, would love to have you promoted because of your attitude and results as a admin

I can give you feedback privetaly!

Cool guy, long app, I'm sold

Actually i am more active on the forums, happens to be everytime there is an appeal someone already took it and i am checking it multiple times per day but whatever. Second I am actually active on Teamspeak and I am talking to people like if you look at my activity for TTT everytime i play on the server i am on the Teamspeak

My Thoughts:

• Consistent Activity with a high total game time


• Actually really nice chill guy
• don't really see you on forums much (maybe just me idk )
• Only thing i can properly say is that your application is quite detailed and i can see the time taken to make this

Good Luck!

Well most of the time when I speak with House I am on a different Teamspeak, you could think like that cause you are online when I am not but i am actually a lot of times in an open spacer talking with other people

application is a bit of a cunt to read through so i didn't. but i returned on the server for 5 minutes and he told me to make a response so i'm gonna.

Look at the rest of your staff team, that should be enough to show he's SA material. If it isn't for you then meet the guy a couple times and you'll be convinced, if you still aren't after that then your vote probably doesn't count towards it anyway.

lots of love nep, we'll always have the fanfics <3

Like it was hard to poke him in the case of an emergency..

The same problems come up as said on House, you need a lot more community involvement, a lot more leniency and a lot more looking at context before you reach there, I have nothing against you apart from those things

After a month or so of proving you can talk to the community, knowing who people are what they like and having good laughs I'd be more inclined to change my opinion

Higher staff should always be talking with the community, the higher up the ladder you go the less playing you do (naturally of course) so it becomes vital you know what the community wants

Right now

If you don't get it this week and you're still determined, just keep at it and improve on the things that you may be lacking. I'm sure you'll get it eventually.
K bai

Super detailed app, good luck my guy

Good luck Neppie <3
