TOPIC: [SSRP Admin] Sexy's application

But Soxey, you just got mod, you can't apply till you've been to at least one meeting. And to that I say I've been to numerous meetings. So fuck you EMP, not anyone else just EMP.

Explain how you feel that your time as a moderator will contribute to you becoming an admin.
I've forgotten how essential spectating is. It's very hard to catch rule breakers when you have to TP to them to see what the fuck they're doing. If it wasn't for frentium proving those amazing videos I would've had a hard time getting them removed from the server.
Explain a situation as a moderator you encountered that was an obstacle you had to work around (EG: defiant user).
Not being able to spectate those who I suspect are breaking rules, that's the one thing I miss. It can be hard to catch them myself and I have to rely on users more.

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

So you got mod? On behalf of the staff team congratulations. Now I must start off by telling you not to abuse, you'll get caught. EMP has 90 screens, 1 for each player, and he watches them 24/7. He'll catch you and break your neck.

With that out of the way let's get started on the basic concepts of being staff:
Presentation: You must always give the player respect, present yourself as if you where attempting to impress them.
Trolls & Assholes: Now that you're staff you'll get people who want to make your life to hell, they'll make fun of you but you must keep your cool under these situations, if you need to quit the game but do NOT act on anger.
As long as you enforce the rules, don't use your powers to better yourself and give some respect to the player you will NOT be demoted. No matter what they say.
Just act cool and don't snap.
Commands: Using commands is useful but be wary of how they work. Some commands like /tp can target numerous players. As such if the command is given "/tp a". All players with an "a" anywhere in their RPname, steamname or steamid will be TPed. Make sure you find a unique section of the name or use the steamid.
Logs: Logs are imperative to determining who is telling the truth and who is lying. These are your greatest tool but do not tell the entire story. As such they need to be used in conjunction with the players account of the incident to allow you to form a judgement.
Staff chat: Chatting with staff is easy and only requires your messages to begin with either a "@" or "/// ".
Warning: After you have found someone to be breaking a rule you can determine what to do from here. You can simply use a verbal warning as a light punishment or /warn them using the following commandI'd give more but I think this is enough

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?
It would entirely dependent on the type of prop spam (Trying to crash the server or not), the time since the ban has been instated, and various other factors but if the effort is there I will most likely reduce the ban time.
Why I should be promoted (we recommend around 150 words).
I believe I should be promoted as I have proven myself time and time again I can be trusted to not abuse the dangerous powers of an admin. I understand how to properly use and not abuse all the powers given, I understand how to separate knowledge from being staff and being user (You'd be surprised how many staff accidentally use information they gained by being staff)

I also would enjoy being promoted as I could utilize the spectate command, the most powerful and dangerous command available to admins. Which would allow me to deal with players who I suspect of breaking rules without need for players to constantly be recording.

Another reason is I need this next step in an attempt to beat tea leaf's record from going from moderator to Super Admin. I'm gonna need every week I can squeeze if I'm going to prove myself for Super admin.

Yes.

what's wrong with this post =-=

#SoxeyhatesEMP

#Sexy4Admin

And to that I say you should've asked for permission to apply straight for Admin, go to a meeting before you can apply for admin, or ask for admin without going to a meeting.

It isn't that hard.

It's soxey, why do we need to vote on him?



Incredibly trusted, very experienced and can definately be mature when needed, despite the application.

Just doing my job.

Soxey is a great guy and provides great support on SSRP so a HUGE from me!

Even if the person has done so much to the community. They should be treated equal?
What about paramontana? No offence but he got off easy because he is so beloved.
Explain pls

Fun fact: He did get permission to apply straight to admin (as far as I have heard if not who wouldn't have given the permission :3 and would have most likely been accepted) but he wanted to go from mod to SA....

I am the Walrus wrote: TFW I can only make the mod applications that go REALLY long. They start at 4AM during summer and 3AM during winter and I don't get internet until 5AM. Also getting up at 5AM before my exams is a bad idea.

Anyway I'm still within the application specifications. I've attended a meeting before, if I attend this one it will NOT be my first.

Blocked wrote: He still has his rank for doing something most people get perma banned for. Not to mention Bilbo got demoted for much less.
He also showed he couldn't be trusted by lying to the lead-team directly for a rank that requires trust.
I'm not debating weather he should be demoted or not but rather that he was an exception. Even admitted by yourself during our discussions.

My point here being is that we need to be more strong on points. We can't give someone an exemption then turn around later telling others that we cant.

Yeah, bringing paramontana into this was just gonna end in a shit storm.
Still EMP should've fucked him up by attending the meeting.

why are people talking about me in some ones admin application??
wish you best of luck soxey even though you seem to strongly dislike me
still think you're a good admin. and will have my vote

Plus even if I have to do 1 meeting as a mod. that means I get it next week.
Get yo numbers right

-Support

Reason:
-Too Soon.
-Needs to work on f1's (I've saw you do some, Due to timezones though)

I hope you guys understand that Soxey could've went for admin immediately but decided to go for mod instead because reasons

I can't possibly think of your other inclinations to make these remarks. Nope, not at all.

Great guy, experienced staff member and has been to his first meeting

Yes:
...nothing stated with regards to when said meeting had to be.
