Explain "Random Death Match" and give an example scenario. Random Death Match (RDM) is when someone gets killed by someone for no reason at all.
RDM Example: Player X has just joined the server and is at spawn. Player Y walks into spawn and pulls out a weapon and kills Player X. This is RDM because Player Y killed Player X for no reason at all.

Explain "New Life Rule" and give an example scenario. New Life Rule (NLR) is that if you die, you may not return to the area you were killed at until the 3 minute NLR clock is gone from the top of your screen. Also you must roleplay that you do not remember anything from your past life.
NLR Example: Player Y has built a good base and has taken his building sign down. Player X see's that there is no sign and raids Player Y and killing him in the process. Player Y respawns and immediately goes back to his base where he died to try to kill Player X again. This is breaking NLR because Player X returned immediately without waiting the 3 minutes.

Explain "Metagaming" and give an example scenario. Metagaming is when someone uses OOC and says something like "Help me my base is being raided, 10k to anyone who kills the raiders!" or anything else in character and that is wrong because OOC is meant for out of character chat like for asking questions or just talking with the other players.
Metagaming Example: Player Y types in OOC "Help me Player X is raiding me, someone kill him!" This is Metagaming because Player Y used OOC for something that his character would say.

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. I would handle this situation by asking both Players there side of the story. Then I would ask Player X if he had any proof. If not then I would tell them it said in the logs that Player Y killed him. Then I would warn Player Y based on which story I believe.

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. I would handle this situation by asking both Players their side of the story. Then I would tell Player Y that it said in the logs he NLRed. I would then warn Player Y and I would return them both to their last position.

Explain how you would handle the following situation:
Player x calls for help in the OOC chat because his bank is being raided. First I would say in OOC that what Player X did was not allowed so anyone who saw it wouldn't think it was allowed. Then I would teleport to Player X and tell him that he metagamed by typing about his bank being raided in OOC and then I would verbally warn him.

Why I should be chosen (we recommend around 150 words): I should be chosen to be moderator on this server because I am very active. It is the only thing I play on when I'm on garrys mod. I am very friendly and so are most of the fellow players on Zarp. I know a good portion of the admins/mods and they are all really nice and very helpful. I realized that there are usually around 80 people on the server and with all of those people there are a lot of F1s. I would like to help out the staff so they don't get too overwhelmed with complaints and accusations and the players by fixing whatever problem they have to the best of my ability. I have had by far the most fun on this server then any other server or gamemode in garrysmod.

The way you said you would handle the RDM and NLR situations are bad. You're saying that you would in no way talk to the players in question and warn based on kill logs. The kill logs alone are not valid proof of NLR or RDM. You should always talk to the players and ask for stories and proof from both of them. The logs are mainly there as a backbone for the stories the players would tell or to identify who killed them in the first place. You should base your warns on possible confessions, screenshots, video or such. At times you may need to leave someone without them being warned as there is no valid proof to show that he broke NLR or RDM'ed.

On the bright side I really like your explanations of what RDM and NLR are. You also don't have any recent warnings and you only have a total of two warnings. You are also quite active.

In short all I feel you need to do is improve the way you say you would handle staff situations and possible rule breakers.

I understand and I am sorry for not including that but I do understand that you should ask for any proof I just forgot to include it.

Active, No recent warns, I've seen him help people so.......

Thanks for applying for staff at ZARP DarkRp! During our weekly staff meeting your application, question answers, game trackers and in-game warnings are checked and then the staff team votes on your application.
