How do you feel that your time as an administrator has contributed to becoming a super administrator:
As a current administrator, and previous SSRP Head Administrator, I've had a lot of time to contribute going to this position. My time as an administrator has been a fun one, but also I've done a lot of work in and behind the scenes in regards to dealing with staff and players. I fully understand what is expected from a Super Administrator and each time I've been promoted to the rank I've always tried my hardest to fulfill my responsibilities and surpass what is expected of a lead team member. I have a lot of previous high ranking positions, and each I've learned a lesson or multiple lessons from each position. This has all encompassed me as an applicant and I feel I have more than enough experience as a staff member, knowledge of the position, and the willpower and knowledge necessary to carry out the job.

What makes you a good candidate for the super administrator team? ( in this part you can go as detailed as you want): There are many contributing reasons to why I believe I'm the best candidate for Super Administrator currently.

Experience
Firstly, I believe my past experience to play a major role in me getting this position. Below I'll list my previous positions that I believe play a key role in giving me great experience for this role.

SSRP Head Administrator
BHOP Owner
Forum Administrator
TS3 Head Administrator
TTT Head Administrator
Minecraft Head Administrator
Murder Super Administrator
Deathrun Super Administrator

These positions have taught me a lot, and I worked very hard for them. Last time I resigned, I was a SSRP Super Administrator as well so this just goes to show that the position won't be new to me and I'll be well accustomed to the role if promoted.

Work Ethic
Secondly, my current hustle and work done in the Community since my return has been very well received by the community and player base and I've worked hard to get up to the point of typing out this application. I've been super active on the Forums, Teamspeak, and SSRP. Doing Appeals, Report Abuses, F1's, and being active on Teamspeak talking to users and staff alike is a key part of showcasing your efforts toward a position and Lead Team is no different.

Great Asset
Thirdly, I believe me being promoted would provide a great asset to help repopulating the server. A second active USA Timezone lead team member would be very healthy for the server and current lead team. I provide a unique perspective being a long time ZARP member and SSRP player at heart. With the experience, knowledge, and initiative to be in this position I believe it makes me the best applicant for the job.

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: There surprisingly hasn't been a situation I've needed a lead team member all that urgently, but have encountered situations like this in the past. Usually its with an obvious hacker that I cannot ban for cheating, but can request an anti-cheat and just punish them for server rule breaks like RDM which they undoubtedly do.

Explain how you would review and handle an abuse report against another staff member:
First, we'll assume this is an abuse report through the forums. I'd respond 'Handling' or something similar, and proceed to review the accused staff member's name, the story, and the evidence. If there was a clear connection between both story and evidence, let's say he RDM'd another player. If this was the staff members first offense, I'd state on the thread something like this:
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?

First, I'd review the reason of the ban, the length, and who the admin and banned user are. I'd contact the staff member and attempt to speak to them hopefully over TS3/Discord if possible, but steam as a second resort.

I'd ask them exactly what the situation was and what the player did to deserve the ban, then let the staff member know that I felt that the length was a bit too much. In most cases, the staff member would agree that they could've been a bit more lenient and hopefully convince them to lower their ban. If for some reason they're very aggressive or defensive over their ban, I'd attempt to contact a Head Administrator and explain the situation as they have the ability to overrule punishments.

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?

First I'd attempt to examine the sit from a distance via spectating them or being cloaked and watching noclipped. Once I identify what the staff member is struggling with, I'd step in and deal with the situation and afterwards speak to the staff member about what I believe they could have done differently and give them constructive criticism.

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 really approach it from the perspective of dealing with most F1's. I'd take both parties sides/stories separately and then move them in to discuss it together. If it was deemed that one of the staff was in the wrong, or both of them were, I'd speak to them, let them know what they did wrong, and if possible take it to the lead team meeting. If not, I'd clear up the accusations and help them work it out between themselves. I'd let them know that grudges aren't acceptable as all staff need to be able to effectively communicate with each other for doing their jobs.

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?

If I assume this was in administrator chat, I'd need to consider a lot of things. Such as, is the staff member causing this disturbance alone? Are their more than one person causing problems? Is the staff member un-hinged? I'd attempt to calm things down by speaking to them privately and letting them know to drop the shit in game. Like most disputes, I'd attempt to calm both parties down and get both sides of it. If it was a one sided thing where one staff was causing problems, obviously I'd have to consider if this was the first time they've done something like this, or the opposite, perhaps it's been a long term thing where they've had problems like this. If it was, I'd let them know this isn't the first time they've been disrespecting other staff or causing drama in game, and would take it to the lead team meeting if necessary.

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?

Obviously the main thing staff are there to do are to stop users causing mass disturbances or disturbances in general. Although on the extreme side, if one of our own staff members are doing this they're obviously completely disrespecting their position and misrepresenting the staff team. If it was something I'd immediately have to handle, I'd attempt to get in contact with a Head Administrator or higher to dish out an emergency demotion.
