Explain "Random Death Match" and give an example scenario.
For me, I Feel Random Death Match is when someone purposely attacks / kills you without any fair reason, for example, an un-reasonable RDM would be when someone kills you for looking at them, or just to gain a "kill". However, a reasonable death match scenario is when, for example - someone raiding your home as a thief. Upon entering without permission (e.g locked door that has been lock-picked.) you are then entitled to engage the now hostile person.

Explain "New Life Rule" and give an example scenario.
The NLR (New Life Rule) is when you die, you cannot return to the same location, or area of death, no matter how death was caused. An example of this, is when your shop/home gets raided by thieves, you, entitled to do so, pulled a weapon and started to try to save your stock / property you unfortunately get shot and killed. For the duration that appears you are not allowed to return to that area, or even after the timer has counted down to seek revenge at the person whom raided, as you died, the NLR thus creates a "realistic" rule that disables your ability by set rules to seek revenge.

Explain "Metagaming" and give an example scenario.
Metagaming has many different meanings, but i believe that in the case of the DarkRP server i am applying moderator status to, means the following: Metagaming is when your charicter uses certain knowledge that their character otherwise might not know. For example, you see a group surrounding a house, a friend of the person in this house is outside seeing whats going on, and updating the status and location of the raiding players in the chat, the friend receiving the tactics via OOC is locked in a room with a window with sight of outside and the door, the friend outside says "hes outside the window" the friend inside, moves to the window and makes a kill. To conclude, metagaming is an unfair advantage with knowlage otherwise wouldn't be known as a solo player out of range of another friendly player.

Why I should be chosen?
Well, to start i was aiming to apply for moderator at 90 hours of game-play, i spend time in the team-speak server often whilst playing and was suggested today to apply and give it a go, so i thought why not.
The reason i feel i should be accepted as a moderator is i feel that i have a lot i could give to the community, I am a friendly, open person that is down-to-earth and understanding. I understand sensitivity in certain topics and issues and what is right and what is wrong. I previously have managed, and administrated many servers, including Minecraft, DayZ. Garry's Mod, Terraria and many more. With being a security officer (IRL) i understand customer services and expectations that general day-to-day customers and clients wish to receive.

I enjoy spending time on the Zarp - DarkRP server, It feels like one great community where everyone knows each other, i could just be innocently walking down a road and someone would should via mic "hey penguin, how are you today" and that alone is what i enjoy about it. The admins, moderators, and staff are extremely friendly, down-to-earth, stern, but fair. and enjoy having a conversation with them, this is what made me feel it is necessary to donate to the server which I love.

With that in hand, knowledge, and experience, i feel that my personality and skills match what is required of me to successfully communicate with players and admins to create and moderate a friendly and open environment, and it would be a honor to do so.

Thank You for the opportunity regardless of the outcome.

Your application is quite beautiful and well-made, but I don't think you're 21 years old, you sound and behave MUCH younger than that (no offense). You're also a very new community member, we haven't gotten to know you yet. I think you should reapply in 2 weeks.

Nameful, whilst i appreciate your quick response, and suggestion, i feel i should go-ahead with the application until i receive an accepted or denied. However, I, as you, are a gamer. and with all due respect no one is as mature enough as you'd hope, i have seen your ban appeals. I do not wish to harm what friendship we have, but i would like to receive input from other moderators and admins whom i have spent more time with. Upon receiving such responsibility, i am, as hopefully you will eventually find out, am a different man.

Please note, that there may be different time-zones, i am from London, unsure of your location, but i rarely see you at times of my normal entertainment times unless on an "all-nighter"

Finally, please accept my ID as proof of my age, i hope this makes you feel more comfortable that i have proved i am not lying to yourself, or anyone else interested in my moderator application.

To clarify, it says 06 03 92 dd / mm / yy if you would like a clearer picture, please request. i have however covered up my address and driving license number for my protection

I like you and had fun with you on the server, but i don't think you have the hours to be a mod yet.

Your app is very good, you have good rules knowledge but 27 hours is not enough to discover our server roleplay and situations.

Improve your playtime, then apply. I suggest 2-3 weeks.

Regards,
Gregory TW!X

TWIX how many hours would you suggest.

Hi all whom commented on my application,

please note since applying for this position i am now at 39.56 hours of game play.
I appreciate your honest opinions, and yours TiGs, everyone is entitled to their own say.
I understand your point TiGz, but without responsibility comes no opportunity.
whilst playing during the times you mentioned, i admit, i was breaking a few rules.
However, was i punished for them? no. notice i have 1, maybe 2 warnings. not many.

I have been banned one due to a misunderstanding which was resolved the same day. and un-Banned.
all im saying, requesting, is an opportunity to prove myself, I am a good guy, and if given the responsibility i would be able to prove myself, Probation maybe? 24 hours, and you will see the true extent of calm, kind, and responsible actions i have, under full supervision if you wish.

However, if my votes come to negative, i shall accept that and aim to prove myself for the long term.
I apologize if i have made mistakes within the server and will accept my actions.


Best Regards
James

Hello P3N9U1N, I think, although you've not been on the server long, you're good guy to talk to. I have seen you break a few rules, but i'm sure they'll be resolved the longer you play. Keep playing and you'll get where you want to be.

Best of luck.

Apply again for next meeting

We voted on your application in the weekly DarkRP meeting. You put a lot of detail into your app which was great but the staff decided they want to get to know you better before they accept your app, so please apply again next week!

Good luck!
