How would you handle a TS3/Discord appeal?:

Firstly, as one does on all appeals, I would read through and review the appeal thoroughly. I always like to make sure I reach the best possible verdict, so I'm not afraid of taking my time.

Once I'm finished reviewing the appeal - and the accompanying evidence, if any - I will contact the staff member who is responsible for giving out the punishment. I'll make sure to discuss the situation the best I can and get a good insight into both perspectives before I reach a verdict. As per usual, I won't ignore the staff member if they say that the punishment is valid. However, I will reserve my right to conclude the appeal without the full assistance of the TeamSpeak staff in question, in the case that the punishment is overdone or is straight up invalid.

Explain some of the administrative features of TS3/Discord and when they're used
appropriately:

Kick from Channel or Server:

Being perhaps the most used power on TeamSpeak, the kick commands are used to kick a client from their channel or the server respectively. These commands can be used quite similarly, and have roughly the same effect, and are useful for single-or-multiple rule breaks. For instance, if a user is perpetually mic-spamming, despite having been told on multiple occasions to stop by a staff member, a kick from the channel (or server if the user further disobeys) will suffice.

Ban:

More uncommonly used, the ban command is used if a user has committed a serious - or extremely repetitive - breach of the TeamSpeak rules. For instance, threats/acts of DOX- or DDOSing, perpetual/repetitive rule breaks, or if a user attempts to evade a punishment given to them on another account.

Set (Server/Channel) Group:

Very commonly used amongst lead team members upon new member joining the staff team, the set (server/channel) group command is used to set a user/client's server or channel group. A good example of this would be if a user is added or promoted on a ZARP server, a TeamSpeak staff member will give the user their respective group. Such as DarkRP Moderator or DarkRP Administrator. Rarely, this can be used to assign channel groups. However, that is mostly related to gangs- and gang ownership.

Delete Users' Avatar

Being probably the least used power, this command is useful if someone's avatar breaches the TeamSpeak rules. Such as if the users' avatar display pornography, gore or anything else that would be considered inappropriate.

What would I do differently with my new powers? (we recommend around 50 words):

The TeamSpeak Head Administrator rank would give me access-- not only to new commands but would also allow me to handle ban appeals, report abuses and so forth. I'm on TeamSpeak 24/7 and although I'm unable to reply all the time because of sleep and school, I'm always quick to respond if someone pokes me on TeamSpeak or contacts me on Steam and tells me to go on TeamSpeak. I'm always able to assist anyone whenever I am needed, and I believe Head Admin powers can only go to make this an easier task overall. Additionally, I'll be able to help people on different fronts which I would otherwise be unable to do.

To sum it up, as a head admin I will focus a lot on handling appeals and abuse reports that were off-limits previously, I'd also be able to further extend my hand to help people in different, not only more difficult but also simple situations such as giving the appropriate groups to a new TeamSpeak staff, training a new TeamSpeak staff and so on.

EXTRA CREDIT: How much does DEADMONSTOR sell client icons for?:

I asked around three months ago, and I believe I was redirected to CaptainF1 and I was asked to pay around $100 million SSRP cash. Looking at all the other applications I can see that DEADMONSTOR offers a cheaper service at $50 million SSRP cash which I thoroughly appreciate.
