Explain "Random Death Match" and give an example scenario:

RDM is when someone randomly kills another player. RDM / Random Death Match is one of the most common rule breaks in DarkRP. RDM would usually be dealt with a warn or if the users RDM's in large numbers then a small to medium ban should be issued. Repeat offences of single RDM should result in a warn each time and if multiple mass RDM's are carried out then a perma ban should be issued. For a direct example, Player X kills Player Y when he was building his shop for no reason other than he wanted to build there.

Explain "New Life Rule" and give an example scenario:

New life rule or NLR is when a user returns to the place of death within the time limit set by the server owner. For Zarp this is 3 minutes and it is done by districts instead of a single place of death. An example would be Dave killed Bob in a raid, Bob gets mad and returns back to his base before the timer was up. A NLR break is usually dealt with a simple warning. Repeat offences should result in more warnings or a small ban. The user is allowed to interact with the killer in a new roleplay situation as long as they act like they are meeting them for the first time with no remembrances to previous / pre-death events including the murder.

Explain "Metagaming" and give an example scenario:

On normal servers metagaming is when someone uses in game specifics or ooc chat to reveal information that the player should not know example a player’s job. A example of this if a person said a user is a theif without actually witnessing them stealing. But with Zarp, metagaming is when users do not use the right chat channels to communicate. OOC is for out of character and IC is for in character. An example would be when a gun dealer is begging people to visit his gun shop using OOC.

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.

In this situation I would bring both users to a area which no one was currently present which would usually be a rooftop and ask both of them to explain the situation, If there was a proper story behind it along with some proof or evidence, I would work out if either party should get a warn or if it was a direct RDM with proof then I will issue player Y with a warning. If there was a misunderstanding or something of that sort, then a verbal warning will be issued.

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.

Even though it is a peak time I would still listen to the story and see if there is any extra proof or evidence to support it. If it was clearly a NLR rule break, then a warn or verbal warning will be issued depending on the situation.

Explain how you would handle the following situation:

Player x calls for help in the OOC chat because his bank is being raided

Player X is metagaming by saying he is being raided by using OOC. Raiding is an in game roleplay action so should only be spoke about using the IC, Advert or Me channels. I would explain to him that he is metagaming and if he does not know what that is then I will explain the rule of metagaming.

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

I have helped as much as I can be answering questions both in game and on the forums. I am a previous SSRP Moderator and I am dedicated and well prepared for any situation. I am mature and will deal with any problems in a serious matter but I will also listen to what people have to say. After being on countless other servers, this is one of the most exciting and interesting servers I have been on and it is by far the most fantastic with the amount of custom content so it would be a pleasure to help keep the server clean. I see so many rule breakers, I report whenever I can but sometimes reporting is not enough. With the power of moderator, it will make it easier to help fight rule breakers and on another note it would be a pleasure to work alongside the dedicated administration team of Zarp as I did once before.
