Explain how you feel that your previous time as a Staff-Member will contribute to you as an Adminstrator:

In my previous time as a Staff-Member, I learned the fundamental knowledge of how the whole staffing on works.
I am familiar with the Rules and the Staff-Ethos, as well as with the knowledge of when and how to use my Administrator-Tools.
I have lots of experience dealing with rude or rule-breaking users and keeping a cool head and dealing with such situations professionally is therefore no problem for me.
Due to the long time that I am surfing for and the long time I've been playing on Zarp, I am often seen as a number one goto when it comes to surf related issues and in most cases I am able to help out!

Explain a situation as a Moderator you encountered that was an obstacle you had to work around:

I've never been in a situation I couldn't handle by myself but I'll make one up.

A player is using an exploit to beat records.

In this situation I would gather as much evidence as I can.
I would then forward this to a member of the Lead Team to have them ban the player.
If no Lead Team -Member is available at the moment, I would kick the player and forward the information to the Lead Team.

If you had to write a letter to train a Moderator in between 100-200 words, what would you say to give them the full grasp?:

I would start of by welcoming the new Moderator to the Staff-Team.
Then I would start explaining to him, what our main goal as a Staff-Member is.
I would then proceed with explaining the Staff-Ethos to him and answer questions if he has any.

After this, I would explain his new Moderator-Commands to him and where to find them.



I'll make sure that he understands, that it isn't all about punishing people, but about helping people and granting them a great time on the server!

Explain how you would handle the following situation:



Why I should be promoted / accepted:

I am one of the most active and longest playing users on the server and am well known by most players.
I've built myself a reputation of being a very passionate surfer, but also a very helpful and overall friendly player.
In the past I had some conflicts with other Staff-Members but that's the past.
I want to help the server to improve as much as possible and give everyone on the server the best experience!

I am as previously stated very active and I also have a lot of experience administrating surf servers.
I am able to help and teach most players on almost every map.
I have many ideas and suggestions on how to improve certain things on the server and would like to help out as much as I can.
I've already showed my interest in helping the server by writing some code for a Mini-Profile.

My passion for surf is very prolonged and it wont change in the near future!

Extra Information:

Permission to apply directly to Administrator was given by Mix3rz and Xnator.

Martin Great Guy!

Thanks to Nyx for doing the BBCode and banners

I was forced to apply by Nyx himself

---

Thank you all for reading!

Very great guy, love him much! make him atmen!

I was totally not forced to type this!

First of all his odds aren't that bad, second of all you shouldn't promote writing bad looking apps, because:

Shouldn't steal code then should he

Even if it were true, it doesn't matter for his application.
Things change within a year+

Even if it were true, which it is
and then there's the exploit he did on deathrun yesterday which almost killed the server

Since I didn't play at that time, I cannot judge it, so for me it is neither true nor false.
I won't just believe something anyone says about somebody else

He was alone on the server and we notified the Server-Owner and told him about the issue.
If anything it is good, that he found the exploit.

How about you read my whole answer?
I won't just believe anything, anyone says.

How about you don't ignore the clear problem

The problem is what? He is accused of stealing code in the past?
That was what like 1.5 yrs ago?
And as a Admin he wont have contact to code, there is no issue at all.

If you want to continue this conversation, how about you join Teamspeak or message me or Knuthulhu privat on discord?

The fact is that he's willing to just lie about stealing code, from a dead guy nonetheless, It's the thought behind it. The fact he's willing to do something as pathetic and lowlife like this. It's a mystery how anyone could trust him after it.

For you it might be a fact, it isn't for me.
And even if, I've seen people doing way worse, stealing code from someone dead or alive is nothing that can't be forgiven.
