I am sure I have more of which contain a lot more game time. But I have changed my Steam name and in-game name a lot due to the fact of being in various communities or playing with friends in a gang and what not.

Estimated Server Time Round about 60 - 100 Hours

Languages I speak English, Slight French

Explain "Random Death Match" and give an example scenario. Random Death Match or RDM is where someone randomly kills another person for no reason what so ever. An example of this could be where a thief acquires a gun and runs around killing everyone for no reason what so ever.

Explain "New Life Rule" and give an example scenario. New Life Rule is where someone is returning to their point of last death within a certain amount of time. An example of this could be where a thief was killed during a mugging and the thief returns to their point of death instantly and kills anyone that was in their NLR zone.

Explain "Metagaming" and give an example scenario. Metagaming is where players are using out of game information to benefit them within the game. For example your friend could walk into a house and get killed during a raid and your friend tells you exactly where the players are for you to kill them. This isn't allowed.

Explain how you would handle the following situation:
Player x accuses player y for RDMing him, the console log shows that player y killed player x. The first thing I would do is ask both players for their side of the story of what started the whole RDM situation. Finally I would ask why the player X was lying about the situation and do the correct actions for lying to staff.

Explain how you would handle the following situation:
Player x accuses player y for breaking NLR, the kills are pretty close together in console (a few lines apart) at a peak time. The first thing I would do is ask why player Y is breaking NLR and tell player Y to stay well away from the NLR zone for the right amount of time. If Y fails to comply I will obviously start going down the route of warnings.

Explain how you would handle the following situation:
Player x calls for help in the OOC chat because his bank is being raided. Because the player is using Out of character chat I would ask them why they are FailRp'ing because they are sort of meta gaming by being ooc at the wrong place and wrong time.

Why I should be chosen (we recommend around 150 words). I feel that you should choose me over another moderator because ever since I have left secondary school, I have matured a huge amount. I also should be selected because I have been staff on other Garry's Mod servers. The ranks I had on these servers were Superadmin and Community Manager on quite a large community but unfortunately the communities didn't seem to last due to server fees and lack of donations. I don't feel that this server is going to disappear any time soon due to the sheer amount of daily players and the wide growth of the community. I feel that I deal with everyone in the way I would like to be treated (respected) therefore I let everyone have their own say instead of just banning or warning someone for no reason. I feel that I have some comedian in me aswell. So most of the time I am serious but every now and then I will have some banter with the admins or players. Finally I do have a YouTube channel of which I will happily upload server video's to promote the server and show how good it is as I have played on it for a very long time and it's definitely improved.

None of your gametrackers linked have activity over the past 30 days.

When building gametime for an application, I suggest sticking to one steam name to build gametime on that gametracker.

• Application is great, taken time to perfect it and not rushed.

Gametime is good while there's no sign of activity.
Causing this;...To be an issue.



Explain "Metagaming" and give an example scenario.Not exactly on the right lines. This "out of game information" literally can be anything. Group, Advert etc.

Expand the following:
Player x accuses player y for RDMing him, the console log shows that player y killed player x.

Player x calls for help in the OOC chat because his bank is being raided.Not "sort of" but certainly. -Expand a bit.

I don't know if you have any warnings.

Hey Morgz,

I was told by a high member of staff that my game trackers may not be showing due to the fact of me not killing anyone. But I feel that what you are saying is that because I don't kill anyone and I am a good citizen I cannot be staff? xD

First and foremost, we'd like to thank you for making the effort to apply for a rank on the ZARP Semi Serious DarkRP. Your application has been discussed at an administrative meeting, and from there it has been voted on.


Unfortunately as more staff members voted 'no' than 'yes', the application has been denied.

The meeting host has taken some criticisms made by the admins and provided you with this feedback:

You are welcome to apply again at any point.
