I've been administrator three times for a collected 6-7 months of staffing now over the past two years and while the first time was over a year ago and I couldn't remember half of the rules, the second time helped me relearn how to use all the commands and the rules that comes with using them. I Learned a lot of the old lead tead through hanging out on teamspeak (Kurze & Nepgear in particular have helped me out a lot). I have handled a good amount of reports on the server throughout the past 5ish months with many different situations.

---

I’m active on the forums (I check it at least daily), although I mostly only reply on TTT related posts. When I respond to Administrator & Moderator applications I will give my honest opinion and say what they can improve on (activity, recent punishments etc.). I’ve handled appeals both by & with other staff members. I have also helped with some or at least voiced my opinion on the matter. When responding to an appeal I try to write my conclusion in detail to hopefully avoid any unnecessary confusion.
Examples: 1,2,3,4,5.


I always try to be kind to other staff & players, if there's anyone asking any questions I will always try to be helpful by answering them to be best of my ability (I highly doubt that anyone has ever seen my “throw a fit” at someone). I try not biased towards others, I’m very forgiving, and believe in second chances. If given the opportunity I will give the most lenient “punishment” e.g. if someone accidentally killed someone I’d rather give them a verbal instead of warning & autoslaying if possible. The player could for example be a rookie and not quite sure how it all works yet. I think most of the things stated above is reflected in my job as an IT Supporter as I deal with a lot of people who can be quite stressed & unhappy at times. ^^’


I have been an administrator on Zarp three times within the past two ish years and have gained a lot of experience through handling reports in-game, handling appeals, helping out other staff members, hanging out with other staff members and therefor believe I have very good knowledge of our rules and ethos.


When I'm playing on the TTT server I will most likely be online on TeamSpeak to be contacted about anything and to talk with other staff/members of the community. Obviously I will be on steam as well throughout most of the day to be contacted there as well.

When there’s a cheater on the server with no lead team member present or available, by either slaying them which might make them leave or by banning them for continuously mass RDMing if possible. Obviously, this only applies to the more obvious cheaters, if the cheater online is playing by the rules then I can only wait for a lead team member to come online to hopefully deal with the situation. I will always try to spectate them till I’ve collected enough evidence, and then either contact a lead team member or post it on the forums.

---

I’m going to assume the template has been used and filled in correctly, if not I would refer to the template and possible offer my help with filling it out. I would announce that I’m handling the report, and read through the report to make sure I have a good grasp of the situation. I would then contact the victim that made the report against the staff member to hear their side of the story. Lastly before making my conclusion I would contact the reported staff member for their side of the story. I may need to ask other lead team members for their opinion. I would then either reply with:

• If the report abuse has been accepted:

  Hello victim, thank you for taking the time to make this report.
  After talking with you and the accused staff member, and considering the evidence provided. I have come to the conclusion that he did indeed abuse his powers against you. The staff member was in the wrong in this situation, and I have taken action to insure that this will not happen again.

• I would go into detail on the exact reason for its denial.

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?

Preferably I would have the staff member come on teamspeak because it would be easier to communicate on there (I think this goes for most of the situations IMO). I'd ask the staff member why he thought it was an appropriate length of time to ban the user. If he does not give a valid reasoning as to why he banned the player for an excessive amount of time I would tell him how to properly handle the situation to make sure that the players ban is shortened, and that it hopefully does not happen again in the future.

---

A staff member is dealing with a user but is struggling to do so in an appropriate manner. How would you resolve the situation?

I would help the staff member out by guiding them towards the right direction, but I would try not to tell them exactly how to do it. Potentially refreshing them on our rules, & ethos to help them out. When they’ve finished the case I may tell them what they can improve on in the future. If the staff member wasn’t treating the reported player appropriately I would tell them that they’re supposed to set a good example and link them to our ethos. I would then tell them that they should always try to remain calm and not throw a fit at anyone even if the player is being disrespectful or racist towards him.

---

A staff member accuses another staff member of breaking rules, how would you help resolve the situation?

I will firstly try to get both staff members on TeamSpeak so we can talk about the incident. I would like to hear both stories from the staff members involved, and I would ask for any evidence of the staff member breaking the rules. If the evidence proves that the staff member did indeed break the rules I would talk with them to hopefully ensure that this does not happen again in the future(this obviously depends on the seriousness of the rule breaking). If no evidence was provided or is invalid, and the staff member denied breaking any rules I would not take any action (although I would keep it in mind if any other cases should occur in the future).

---

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?

I’d ask the two staff members involved to calm down. If they continue arguing I would remind them that this is unacceptable, and they should remain respectful towards each other especially because they’re representing the server/staff team (and it obviously isn’t very nice). Afterwards I would try to resolve the issue at hand by speaking with the staff member who started the argument. I’d ask him what happened and hear what he has to say. I’d tell him that what he did was wrong, and I would ensure that this does not happen again in the future if something like this comes up again. I would talk with the other staff member and hear his side of the story, tell him the others POV on the matter, and try to resolve the situation. Afterwards I’d try to the two staff members in a chat so they can talk it over (whilst supervising them). If one of the staff members involved doesn’t wish to resolve the issue at hand I’d bring it up in the next LT meeting.

---

You spot a staff member breaking rules to the point of harming other users, how do you approach the staff member?

I’d contact the rule breaking staff member and get them on TeamSpeak. I’d make sure that he’s aware of what he has done wrong, and that no users are further harmed. I’d apologize to the users effected by the incident and assure them that this will be dealt with. Depending on the seriousness of the abuse I would:

• For more serious abuse:

Emergency demote the staff member because he used his powers in a way that is not allowed. I would tell the staff member why he was demoted to not cause any unnecessary confusion and get a Head Admin involved. I would inform the other lead team members why he has been demoted and bring him up in the next lead team meeting.

For less serious abuse:

I’d basically just give them a verbal warning and makes sure that he’s 100% aware that what he did was wrong and that it should not happen again. They may be a new staff member or at least not known for doing anything to intentionally harm anyone. Lastly, I’d tell him that it will be brought up in the next lead team meeting.
