Estimated Server Time:
Including old names: 6.189 minutes or 103.5 hours.

Languages I speak: I fluently speak English and Danish.

Explain "Random Death Match" and give an example scenario.
Random Death Match, abbreviated RDM, is the action in which a player kills another player without proper RP reasoning.
An example of this would be if player x as a citizen, walked up to player y, also a citizen, and shot him in the middle of the street, for no reason at all, then walked away.

Explain "New Life Rule" and give an example scenario.
New Life Rule, abbreviated NLR, is what occurs after a player have been killed. It means that they essentially have a new life and have forgotten everything, and can't return to their place of death for 3 minutes.
An example would be if player x was raiding player y's base and got killed, he then would not be allowed to come back and attempt another raid till his NLR was over.

Explain "Metagaming" and give an example scenario.
Metagaming is the action in which a player reveals information that would otherwise not be known to other players through the OOC channel.
An example would be that player x knew, through a raid attempt, that player y had money printers, and then player x decided to broadcast this information through the OOC chat so that either police or other criminals would try and raid player y's base.

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 first of all, ask for proof since that would speed up the process of helping the player in need, if there is no proof, I would ask player y why he killed player x and also ask player x what was going on when he was killed. After I have heard both accounts I would then take the appropriate action thereafter, and if player y did RDM, I would start out by giving him a warning and explain to him what he did wrong and why he can't do that.

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.
As in the previous explanation, I would first get both players accounts of what happened and ask for proof if there was any. Then I would ask player y why he would be breaking NLR and return to the place where he previously died, and handle him thereafter. If player y did not have a reason to return to the place of death, then he would get warned, but in a situation where player y is a policeman and there is a raid on the Police Department, the bank or a nuclear raid I would explain to player x did not break any rules, and is allowed to avoid NLR when these places are under attack or active.

Explain how you would handle the following situation:
Player x calls for help in the OOC chat because his bank is being raided
I would tell player x that he is not allowed to use OOC chat for that purpose, because that is metagaming, and that he should instead seek for help through /advert or the /pm system to receive help from other players in the situation of a raid on his bank. If player x however would keep asking for help through the OOC chat, I would take him aside and explain that it’s a rulebreak, and that if he does not stop, he would get warned.

Why I should be chosen (we recommend around 150 words).
First off: I was a moderator a year ago and I know the administrators stance on reinstating old staff due to "What if they just leave again." but I assure you with personal stuff resolved I am ready to get back into the game.
I also know that my current profiles do not contain a lot of playtime, at least not for server 1, but I do intend to play more on server 1 again, since I just recently rejoined I haven't had time to log a lot of hours again but I plan to.
The reason why you should choose me is because I am a responsible person who knows how to fit in line and follow the rules as well as uphold them. I take mod duty as a privilege unlike some who uses the tag as a reason not to get disrespected by players. I would also like to be reinstated as a mod because in the recent couple of days I have noticed how, even with a lot of people complain in OOC while having reported an F1, some staff members just keep RP'ing and not doing what they are there to do, while there are probably a lot of unsolved F1's which frustrates me to see as a person who wants people to have a pleasant time on the server. I can be harsh in my tone towards rulebreakers but I try my hardest not to be unpleasant while doing F1's as it's better to teach rulebreakers to do right with a warn, instead of losing players due to bad moderating and staff experience.

I wouldn't see it much of a problem viewing that you've been active ever since a few days ago with an abundance of gametime. If you keep it up by Saturday I see why not.

Otherwise you could show activity throughout around two weeks to show that you're really "back".

Good luck.

I'd rather apply now and help make a change sooner than later and yeah I will keep my gametime up till saturday.

*edit*
Also if anyone wants to post if I have any recent warns it would be nice. I remember Nexize doing that for almost all applications.

Great ex-staff member
Actively is great
Knows how to explain the rules
Friendly

hello Lskovfoged i have read you application and i have found some improvements that could be made to your application to make it just that much better. i wil also give feedback.

In this answer the metagaming explanation is sort of right but its not quite complete and a bit vague. a explanation of meta gaming could be something along the lines of Relaying in character information in a out of character channel or vice versa As Per the rules.

<code>2.3 Meta gaming - In Character related information should merely be relayed (when appropriate and coincident with the other rules) through the In Character channels. This also applies vice-versa, as out of character information should not be used in character.</code>

Also you might need some more game time because 1 week of game time is a bit low as you are just returning and you need to get used to the community again.

apart from those things good luck for the meeting and remember my final opinion will be in the meeting.

I use my example for Meta gaming as that is how I best find it portrayed through my words, I did however edit it a bit to make it more understandable. A vague explanation of the rule that is still clearly understood has served it's purpose of being explained. English is not my first language so some might be lack luster because I'm missing the words to describe it and I am bad at going back and editing because I feel like my first impression is the best impression, if people do not want to vote yes due to one rule vaguely explained that I have showed clear capability of enforcing and reporting then it's up to them.

As I have said before, the reason why I applied is because I feel like there is once again a need for people that will not sit around doing nothing while F1's are not handled, I know a lot of people apply each week, but some of these people are also new and not people coming back and with this it can end up with them handling F1's badly or with problems if there is a flood of them coming through without more help.

I still do not believe that activity really means much when I just recently rejoined and already logged as much time back in as I have, that is how I show I am back and also what I will keep doing, refamiliarising myself with the community again is done both through SSRP servers, Teamspeak and through the forums where I am once again active.

But please, do call me Nemesis, no one uses Lskovfoged about me any more except myself, at least not people who didn't know me before ZARP or aren't Danes.

To first start off, your application is very big, giving everyone a high chance of you staffing again, as you have alot to say about the topics you answered.

Your game time is quite huge from your old names plus your new name, I think that is no problem here.
Your grammar is very nicely typed and it seems like you know alot about staffing.
I dont really have any negatives about this application too.

I present you.. a..
