About this application: Let's just start off with one simple explanation. I wasn't banned from the rank Moderator, I was demoted for inactivity. I would also like to say that, while in the past as a Moderator, I was always a bit overwhelmed. But, I was a great Enforcer. Even then, that doesn't hinder my chances at becoming a Moderator, as everyone changes, and so have I, I've grown older, more mature, and now have a much better understanding of the rules. Although this application was used initially, I used it again because it contains the same meaning that I put into it when I first made it. In all this, all I ask for is another chance at being an Enforcer at first, we don't have to jump into Moderation yet.
NOTE: This application isn't posted now to be accepted now. I'm posting it now, just knowing that it will be determined at a later point in time. So don't go saying that I posted this too early or you never see me on, it's because I just returned.
WHY SHOULD YOU BE AN ENFORCER/HELPER: I believe that I should become an Enforcer because I feel that I can be a good Enforcer as well as a good contribution to Perp-Head's staff team. I also feel that I should become an Enforcer because I see players everyday breaking the rules and others not doing anything about it. The reason I see this is because I am usually on during times when other staff members are not due to me living in the GMT -7 timezone. This helps because most other staff members live in Europe rather than my time zone or somewhat similar to mine. I am usually online from about 6 - 7 AM and 5 - 8 PM GMT on weekdays and on weekends I am online from around 9 AM - 9 PM GMT time giving me the chance to help while others cannot. I am a very active player and in my opinion, a great staff member too. I have very good grammar and can speak very well english. I can communicate with even the toughest players and can usually figure out a solution for rule breakers. I feel like I know the rules quite well and that I could enforce them properly.
Something to add onto this, is that I've been a Helper, Enforcer, and Moderator before, so I know the punishments, ban system, warning system, rules, laws, and pretty much all around everything there is to know to be a staff member.
I also believe that I should become an Enforcer because I have a know-how of punishments and what to do in situations that involve problems. For example in a situation where my friend has RDM'ed a cop because he gave him a ticket then went into a situation with me and DC'ed I would not only ban the player for a reasonable amount of time, but I would also treat my friend with the same respect and equality that I would treat another player that has done the exact same thing that my friend has done to get him / her banned. ( I know that Enforcers cannot ban, I was just giving an example
)
I have two bans on record ( Perpheads bans ) and no VAC bans. I feel that bans shouldn't matter in this occasion unless they were serious bans. My two bans were for stupid mistakes that I made and am honestly sorry about, and they were only two days aswell. I also feel that my timezone is the perfect one for this server because it is when most admins or moderators are not online and when I can help the server the most. I see players all the time breaking the rules and when I could help but I cannot, and I would love to be able to do so.
I have had tons of experience with being a staffing rank meaning Enforcer, Mod, Administrator, or even Owning a server. I have done all of these and I still do but I feel that I am especially committed to this server and that I really understand all the rules, laws, players, and the correct punishments on this server. As being an Enforcer I would always make sure to do the right thing and to never break the rules. I already know the rules thoroughly and I think that some Enforcers do not know all of the rules and may just abuse their rank. I want to be an Enforcer so that I can help players that need it and deal with rule breakers that get annoying. I know how being an Enforcer works as I used to be one.
One example of this is what happened today. Dealing with multiple rule breakers, I felt that I handled the entire situation as professionally as possible. During this, I explained all the rules that they broke, why they broke them and they ended up getting banned as a result of Ayjay's Ban Request that he made as he was there with me at the time, spectating the situation. I feel that this situation, has truly proved that I know the rules, laws, and proper punishment, even after being gone for so long, because I've been looking over the rules and building up a much stronger understanding. I finally feel that I am again ready to become an Enforcer and do what I did before, except much, much better.
I feel that I am a very good RP'er and that I could help improve others RP'ing and rule following if I were to become an Enforcer. Many people have been with me in an RP situation and I believe that they can support me in saying that I am a good RP'er and a good rule follower. I have a total two weeks meaning enough to fit the requirements. I would love to help out the server even more than I already can as a regular player and Enforce the rules and help make the server a better RP'ing place.
While playing Garry's Mod, I have about 600 hours, all mostly spent on Perpheads. Stating this, I feel that my experience in role-play is very high, therefor meaning that I would have tons of experience and good judgement in RP situations.
HAVE YOU BEEN ADMIN ON ANY OTHER SERVER: Yes I have been on quite a few. One being Perpheads, all the way up to the Moderator position. Others too, however they were not Garrys Mod servers but very similar in the sense of RP. I am a very trusted administrator on these other servers and they are quite popular aswell. I infact own one currently and find that I own it quite well. ( Just my opinion )
DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO SAY:
Although some do know of my bans and three warnings, I apologize for them all. Two of the warnings go with the most recent ban and the third warning was for an immediate problem that I had to solve and I should have been safer instead of running across the highway. What happened was I was a SWAT officer and the Mayor was corrupting the city on purpose. He had just recently given the SWAT team a van right before the bank robbery took place. When the alarm ran off, I first looked both ways before crossing the highway, then dashed across to go get the van. I know this was a mistake and I apologize for it, I was rushing and I probably should have taken the underpass. The first ban on record was a mistake between me and Ind, I was talking to him during an admin sit about a traffic incident or something like that and I misunderstood him when I thought he gave me permission to go, when in fact he was not done talking to me. I made a ban appeal, and was unbanned shortly after. The next ban was a big mistake and I felt no need to make an appeal because I know what I did and I made a rash choice that I shouldn't have made. I got into a situation with some other people and they tried to mug me. I had money in my pocket ( About 11k ) that I just used to purchase some clothes and other stuff. As I was walking back to the ATM to return my money they mugged me and I pretended not to have any money. They then told me to drive off and I backed up slowly to 'look at a house' because I was considering purchasing it. As I backed up to it they shot my car. I went up and tried to take one of them out by hitting him with my car and missed.
I understand that this was a huge mistake and that is why I am posting it here, to show you all that I am sincerely sorry and that I have learned from my mistakes. I really want to help this server and I feel that I am more mature since my last incidents and that I have learned from them. Since these experiences and other personal mistakes in real life, I have much improved my game play, choices, RP, helping, and just in general playing. In real life I have changed my way of thinking very hard before doing something that I know may not be right or not. In this, I hope you understand that I am trying to change and that I am pretty much there and I feel that I am ready for this postion, however, if you feel different please tell me, I would love to hear your reasons
(Please note that recent means around a year ago, I am just saying recent because it was the last ban I ever received.)
I also am going to be more active on the TS server than I was because I feel that I can help players to the best of my abilities in that part as well.
I would love to hear your feedback about my application and my in-game activities. If you give me + Support or - Support or +/- Support please give a reason why so that I may explain my reasoning and improve my application for the better. Any support would be appreciated, aswell as negative support ( Only if you feel that I have done something negatively. ) would be appreciated so that I know where to improve. All feedback is great! Thanks!
* I have good understanding of the rules
* I have been with the community since December ( I joined the site in January )
