TOPIC: [SSRP Admin] TheAp4ch3's Application

Explain how you feel that your time as a moderator will contribute to you becoming an admin.

Well, i think i learned a lot of things in my moderator time, the first thing that comes in my mind is the professionalism. And yeah i think ZarpGaming taught me how to be professional. Also i know the rules very well. And of course there are some things where i am not sure what i should do, but that is why i am on Teamspeak, i ask the other admins/mods about their opinion and they help me. I can handle most of the difficult situations myself though.

Explain a situation as a moderator you encountered that was an obstacle you had to work around (EG: defiant user).

It's often an obstacle when the one who has broken a rule can't speak english. I mean it's nice that people from different countries play on this server and enjoy it, but communicating with them without knowing the language they speak could be quite difficult. Fortunately, i always found a way to tell those people what they made wrong. Sometimes i asked another staffmember who can speak the language and sometimes i had to use Google Translate. (Which is not the best thing to use to translate sentences by the way). Also there were people arguing with me, telling me what to do and people looking for excuses. But i think i could handle those situations quite well.

If you had to write an email to train a moderator in between 200-300 words, what would you say to give them the full grasp?

First of all, thanks for applying. You are now a staff member of ZarpGaming, you are now a person that is responsible for the rulebreakers/questions on the server. First of all remember, that you can't use an abusive command when you are in a roleplay character. That means, every command that can give you advantage when for example raiding someone or doing other RP things is not allowed. Example: If you raid someone and /freeze him so he can't do anything about it. That's abusing and will be punished. You can use your commands against rulebreakers for example as a gangster. But you can't give yourself an advantage.

How to get Mod on Duty?
Press F4, go to jobs and choose "Moderator on Duty". You are now not allowed to roleplay.

How to handle F1's?
If there is a red box that says "1 unhandled request", then there is an F1 that is not handled. If you want to Handle an F1, press F1. Now you should see how many seconds ago the F1 was made, also you see the name and the Description of the F1. Right click on the request you want to handle and click on "handle this" and then use the Go to player button or just type in chat /goto (Player). When the request is handled Press F1 and right click to the F1 you handled.. Then you will see the button that will delete the F1 when you have it solved "Mark F1 as finished".

Now let's look at the main commands:
/freeze: A command that is used for people who run away from you. If you type /freeze (player) the player can't move until you /unfreeze.
/goto: Is a teleportation command that allows you to go to a player. /goto (Player) [Teleports to player]
/bring: Brings a player to you! /bring (player) [Teleports a player to you]
/warn: Warns a player, if he did something wrong. /warn (Player) (reason). [After 3 warns kick after 4 Warns temporary ban.]
/kick: Kicks a player out of the server. /kick (Player) (reason)
/tp: Tp's a player where you look at/ Tp's you where the player is looking at. /tp (you) (player) or /tp (player) (you)
Kick, bring, goto and freeze are Commands that are accessible through the tab menu, so for the best result use tab.
/slay: kills a player. [Rocket = Fly and explode, explode = obvious, normal = just die, silent = vanish and die.]

Explain how you would handle the following situation:

Player x appeals their ban in great detail, apology and effort. You check the ban list and find that you banned them permanently for propspam, and that this is their first ban. How would your response to the appeal be?

If the player takes much time to do his appeal he would show that he is still interested to play on this server. So if he promisses me that he does not do anything of that again i would give him another chance and lower his ban. The reply would look like this: "Hello Player, due to the fact that you put so much effort in this application and appologized i am ready to give you another chance. Your ban will be shortened to 5 days. I hope you realized, that what you did was not good and could've ruined everybodys gaming-experience.

Why I should be promoted (we recommend around 150 words).

Well, i was Admin before and needed a pause (Had to learn a lot for school as my marks weren't the best.) , and i missed ZarpGaming and i came back. So i know the rules and what you can do as an Admin, and i know what you should not do as one. Also i know the old staff-members and am already friends with some new ones. I have a lot experience on Administrating as i was Admin in this community before (twice). Never did anything terribly wrong that i got demoted.In my opinion i am Admin Material, as i handle every situation calm and professional, even the difficult ones. I am not shy to talk to somebody and i am not afraid to say my opinion and my ideas for the server. I am sometimes online when other staffmembers are already in bed. I also have read the rules and have them in my head.
I am in the community since October with my new nickname.

I will not leave this community again in the near future. School was difficult because i was too lazy in the first 6 months and had to do twice the work in the last 6 months. Will not make this mistake again..
