Steam Name: Jim_Jam
Forum Name: Jim_Jam
What server(s) are you active on?: TTT, Teamspeak & the forums.
I am From: The UK
Time spent with ZARP Gaming?: Almost 4 years now :')
How often do you come on the forums: Multiple times everyday
Why You?:
Throughout the 3 years (almost 4 now) I have spent on the forums I have learnt how they work and more importantly what is required of forum staff members. I have great activity on the forums as I come on and make posts everyday and help out users where-ever I can. I go through the applications and give feedback wherever I feel will make an impact and the majority of the posts I make are either me providing a users with something they missed from their application (such as their gametracker or SteamID) or simply me giving feedback on an applicant. If I were to be given forum staff, I would be able to help out users much more efficiently as I would have the power to edit applications.
In the past I have been a moderator in the Server Application section. Because of this, I know the powers and responsibilities I will be given and I know how to staff on the forums and what is expected of me as a section moderator. I am currently a Super Admin on TTT and I have great knowledge about the rules across all of Zarps servers and how they are to be staffed meaning I have the capability to suggest ways for users to improve their applications.
As forum staff I will have the power to lock posts in this section. I can think of 3 reasons why I would need to use this for the server applications section. The first is when an application is revoked. This is done when an applicant edits their main post saying they have revoked the app. The second reason is the ones that have the outcome posted on them (which is done during the meeting) and finally the applications that apply for a position that they are unable to apply for (E.G. Someone applying for Teamspeak staff when the apps are locked or someone applying for a Leadteam position whilst only being a Moderator). The most useful thing I will be able to do as server app staff is edit posts. There has been many situations where a user has either failed to include their gametracker link (and even SteamID (shoutout to Aek for not knowing how to get someones SteamID)) and I have replied to the post giving them the link. If I were to be staff in this section I would be able to edit it in myself saving the job for another staff member. Not only that, I will be able to fix BBcode on applications to make them look more appealing and easier to read. And for people that are new to the forums I will also edit in the template on their application, making it as easy as possible for them.
Thank you for reading my application, be sure to post anything you think I need to improve on, all feedback is greatly appreciated <3
I think it's worth getting rid of that LM for this role. Sacrifices must be made.
