TOPIC: [SSRP Administrator] Nafe's Application

Give and explain 3 situations in which it would be appropriate to use the ban command:

Scamming

Player A and Player B agree to coinflip, they go through the process of creating the rules and do not use one of the protected systems. Player A and Player B both agree to the rules and proceed on with the coinflip, Player B winds up losing the coinflip and does not hand over the items he agreed to. He should then be banned for scamming until he agrees to pay up.

When a user exceeds a reasonable amount of warnings / varying other punishments

Player A decides to join server one, his only real intention is to cause trouble and in this particular instance is just looking to RDM some players. He ends up doing so for long enough to attract the attention of people, he winds up getting himself reported and put in a sit. The admin takes one look at his rapsheet and sees that this player has multiple recent punishments and clearly isn't learning from the warnings he is being given. He then ends up being banned for RDM + x Recent Punishments.

Exploiting

Player A is on the server when he discovers an exploit, rather than reporting the exploit immediately he choses to use it to his advantage. He winds up digging himself a hole and inevitably gets caught, in most situations a ban would be handed out, length depending on the severity of the exploit and duration of it's use.

Explain in detail the main functions of the F1 menu and how this can be used to help you deal with situations on the server:

The F1 menu is effectively the hub of staffing on the server, you will use this menu to take reports, view the logs and active NLR. In the main screen of the F1 menu is where you can view the reports on the server that are either in the process of or have been completed, when you want to take an unhandled report you must do so by taking the oldest one and right clicking it and choosing to handle it, depending on what the report is you can either bring the user (make sure to check with them first) or teleport to them. You can then proceed on with the report in whichever way suits that situation. You can also right click the report whilst handling it to either abort or finish it.

The next tab, logging will be useful in nearly all admin situations. This particular tab gives you information based off of things such as kills, arrests, name changes and much more. As an example, a kill log would look something along the lines of "Nafe (STEAM_0:0:80532056) killed themself in Recreational District", followed by a time and date of the particular instance.

The active NLR tab tells you all the players on the server who currently have NLR, in what district and when their NLR is due to end. I personally haven't ever used this menu for staffing and prefer to use the HUD display when looking at a player, to see what their NLR is. I am sure in the right situation this can be useful, but I have yet to come across it and therefore cannot really give much insight on it.

Finally the recent warnings tab, this tells you the recent warnings given out on the server since it's last restart cycle. This can be useful to see if a player has been frequently troublesome. But again, when you have the rapsheet in place it can be much easier to look directly at an individual rather than the server as a whole.

Explain in detail how you would handle the following situation:
You witness Player A being verbally abusive towards you through voice/chat whilst you are carrying out your administrative duties.

Depending on the words used and the situation, I would usually settle for a verbal warning. This is with an exception to discrimination as the powers that be would prefer that was dealt with properly. If the user continued to act like a child and throw verbal abuse toward myself or others I would proceed with punishments such as voice/chat mutes and or anything further if necessary.

Explain in detail how you would handle the following situation:
Player A makes an appeal on a ban that was placed on them permanently for prop spamming, putting great apology and detail into the appeal, admitting to what they did. Explain the process of how you would handle this appeal.

Firstly I would mark on the appeal that I was handling the appeal. Then I would proceed to contact the banning admin and ask them for the situation to be explained further, to gather as much information as possible. Once I have done this, if I feel it is necessary I will speak with the user who was punished and find out their side of the story.

Typically you would take the staff members side unless there is valid proof. In this particular instance the user has been banned for an extended period of time and is greatly apologetic. I then type out a response to the ban appeal, accepting the punishment and will ask a forum staff member to deal with the rest of the thread appropriately.

Why I should be promoted:

I believe I should be reselected as an SSRP administrator as I am a capable individual who has a good history as a staff member, I am beyond knowledgeable when it comes to usage of powers and how to handle specific situations. I am a former head administrator on SSRP, however I held many other high ranking positions within the community see my signature for a few examples...

I have recently made a return to SSRP and have been interested in returning to the staff team with the intention of reclaiming my previous ranks, I enjoyed my time previously as a lead team member and a staff member overall and I am sure I will again. I have done my best to gather as much activity as possible since coming back, with my evenings and my days off work I think I have done fairly well in that regard.

I am very active on the ZARP Teamspeak and very easily approachable elsewhere in the community. I do my best to help everybody I can and I am a fairly neutral person and do not like taking sides, so I can handle reports and sits quickly and efficiently.

I do have a recent warning, and my activity is the best. So I would like to take this chance to apologise to YisYas (punishing admin) for taking my banter a step to far the night the punishment was given, I did not think you were going to lose your cool that quickly, and I had overlooked that fact you were already the target of rulebreakers for the duration of that evening and by doing what I did, only added to the frustration. As for my activity, I am known for staying around for long periods of time so you I can guarantee you that the activity that I have shown this week will continue on for a very long time to come, providing the player counts stay up.

Thank you for taking the time to read my application.

Once again gonna ask the SSRP members who clearly seem to think there's a reason to vote no for me, to actually give me a reason they don't want me to get staff? It's particularly odd that I am getting denied for things I haven't done, and to regain the trust I never lost (in my eyes at least...)? Last I checked I never left on bad terms and since coming back I have only been punished once and that was on my first day back?

Denied for behavioral issues for this bro unlucky

I find it very odd you keep getting denied for the same reason without any elaboration

Contact the LT members.

The only one Ive managed to speak to is Xnator who is baffled as to why I’m getting denied, I haven’t had a chance to contact the others this evening as I’ve been busy.

The real CM

Nafe is an incredibly friendly, helpful and has been a great asset to the team in the past, doing a great job as a Head Admin, with no issues since his resignation. Quite upset that I wasn't able to make the meeting this week as I personally would've loved to have seen him being accepted again.

I have contacted several members of the staff team personally and none could give me any reason as to why Nafe was denied this week. I see no reason why he should be denied!

Great guy when he is on the server, I do love RDA'ing you

Quite a big issue with the meetings then if none of the staff can even give 1 reason of his denial, seems like bias is slipping into the meetings.

There is a chance that it is simply the fact that people are not willing to own up to their opinions, but I will be doing my best to attend next week's meeting to be sure!

TheXnator wrote:
What's the point in attending the meeting if you can't back up your reasoning, wouldn't the staff want to give reasons so that the individual can improve? seems a bit silly to me like but I appreciate the transparency.

narexa wrote:
Personally I would like to see those who voted no coming forward and giving Nafe some of their reasons so he knows where their issues are coming from, however obviously there's no way for us to force anyone to do that (and nor do I even know who voted what)

In the novel it is written that Liu Bei visited Zhuge Liang three times and it was on the third visit that Zhuge accepted Liu's offer to be Liu's advisor. It doesn't help that you're applying for ssrp staff approval tho

Trusted with powers - Good attitude - Willing to help the server - Good reputation - Detailed app - Good activity

+SUPPORT

Sigh, i am here to write this support message once again.

The real CM fella

BUMP - If you think I need to "regain my trust" with you, then please do not hesitate to comment
