► How do you feel that your time as an administrator has contributed to becoming a super administrator:

I have been an Admin on Deathrun for about 1,5 months which isn't that long but I have really enjoyed being an Administrator as it comes to Moderating the server and keeping the server clean against rulebreakers. I know the rules very well and I haven't caused any bad incidents. As an administrator, I have dealt with several rulebreakers and I've handled them successfully. I have also trained a person while being supervised by Lead Staff, So I have gotten some experience with training someone.


► What makes you a good candidate for the super administrator team?

- Active
- Approachable
- Active on Forums and TeamSpeak
- Friendly Player
- Motivated to help the server
- Knows Commands Usage


► 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:

I have been in several situations as it comes to mass rulebreakers or normal rulebreakers, And from what I've known is that I haven't really needed an LT member for help, I only had a few struggles with people who were having ongoing arguments and other things. If there was a problem I usually do it myself or I get some support from another staff member who is online on the server. If there's something wrong, I would probably post it on the forums or I would do it the easy way, Just message an LT member.

► Explain how you would review and handle an abuse report against another staff member:

When I'm handling an appeal I would reply with "handling" so people would know that I'm handling the report. Then I will talk to the reported staff member and the person reporting the staff member.
I would ask the reporting person if they have gotten any proof of the staff member abusing their powers. And then I would ask if the staff member could prove him/her wrong. When I have enough evidence I would reply in either two of the following ways.








► 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 would ask the staff member who they banned, When they tell me who they have banned I will try to find the Steam ID of the banned player. When I have gathered the information i will look at the punishments and see why they got banned and if they have received warnings or other kinds of punishments.

The ban length could be deserved or not deserved, but if it wasn't deserved then I would reduce his ban, and I will do this by unbanning the banned players and I will reduce this ban (by a lot or a little bit, depends on how long they have banned him). When I have reduced the ban, I will try to get in contact with the player, and I will message them through steam or TeamSpeak if they are online, and tell them their ban has been reduced.

► 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?

This problem would mostly happen with a new staff member like a new moderator who just got accepted.
If the player is struggling with dealing with a player, I would assist him a little bit through the Admin chat or ask the Staff member to hop on TS and tell him how he could deal with the player or punish the player. If the Staff member still struggles with dealing with the player, then I'll take it over and then I will deal with the player, And then I will tell the player how he could handle the situation the next time it happens.

► 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 would ask the Staff Members to hop on TeamSpeak and we would talk about what exactly happened.
Then I would ask the Members their side of the story, I will ask if the staff member who accused the other staff member if they have any proof. Then I will let them discuss and let them have some arguments.
In the end, I will handle this situation just like a report, I could just talk to the rulebreaking staff or punish the Staff Member


► 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?

I will try to calm down the players and ask them to hop on TS or Discord, Then I would ask Them what happened. Then I will try to find a solution to what they are arguing about, I could change the subject so they won't think about their argument. Or i could ask some questions or something that makes them forget about their arguments. I could also check if this happened before and I could do something about it. If it has happened before then I could bring it up in the meeting.

► 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 would get Staff to get in a call and talk about this person and about his rulebreaking, I could talk to the player and asking what he's doing, and telling him about what he's doing is very wrong. The actions of this player could end up into a verbal warning or into an Emergency Demotion and the Staff members could talk about if the player could keep their rank.
Or I could wait and discuss with the Lead team before deciding on what action to take.

I'm sorry if this application is a little short, I'm not a man of words and this is my first time writing an LT application.
Please give your fullest opinion on me and my application
Thanks!

Good luck mate

I always do this when multiple Administrators online, I always ask Can I punish this guy? just to let them know that I'm gonna deal with the rulebreaker.
That's all.

I've known you for a bit now, and played with you quite a bit. There's some stuff I'd like to point our;

You're active and usually helpful to users in need of assistance, your overall attitude is pretty good and you know the rules well. You might be a refreshing addition to the leadteam.
However, I must point out that you aren't too communicative by nature, and I think being communicative is very important for someone who wants to be in a leader position. Also, in the past I have experienced some immature behaviour from you, and since we are friends it went fine and talks were done, but I am not sure if you could handle some harder situations correctly, calm and collected with users.

For now, I'd say your chances are pretty average, and I wish you the best of luck!

You're active on the server and clearly have a good attitude towards it but you've also shown time and time again how you are clueless in certain situations such as a few weeks ago when you muted/gagged someone for racism and warned them for the same offence (i was told this was not the first time). I've seen you make errors on the forums several times about things like gag lengths and you seem to be responding "ok" to people calling you out for things once every while. On top of this, you say you're approachable but you always lurk in ts channels and only use text chat in game so it's quite hard to communicate with you sometimes and i feel like it would be hard for you to handle a situation with staff arguing for example when you never talk. Looking at your other reasons for why you should be promoted, it's nothing that screams super admin candidate.

There are also problems with your questions like you wouldn't get in contact with a staff member who banned someone for too long to tell them their mistake or at least get an understanding of context?

Big

You know how I feel from DM's but good luck!

Yoo good luck bro but I find that you aren't ready yet

I think there are enough superadmins currently compared to the amount of admins and mods.

Think nogtog got it perfectly, and you asking can I punish this guy isn't the same as saying you're going to punish someone it shows you don't really know what to do in certain situations and if you actually wanted to tell other staff you were going to handle something you would say you are going to not ask to

This has been voted on already, can it be locked please?
