b1) Why do you want to volunteer for XenoRP?

 

Currently my life has slowed down and with the free time I have been given, staffing seems to be a good choice for that time. My prior staffing experience may not appear as a monumental time for me but as you will see within the next answer below to the b2) question it opened my eyes to staffing as a whole. So other than the time I have on my hands I feel as though I can be a helping hand and I strive to attempt that whenever I see an opportunity.

 

b2) If you were to get accepted, what do you think would make you a good moderator?

 

When I was first staff on CRUSHED I was at a disadvantage as I was one of 5 staff members (one other trial-mod, a super admin, a head admin, and an owner) after a loss of people. To be a trial-moderator on a server that runs 40 people at a time and not have a broad range of commands/capabilities was hard. As a result I was under some stress, but I powered through this challenge, and climbed many ranks to become an admin within a couple of months. XenoRp has many traits I found on CRUSHED. If there is anything I have learned throughout my time as a staff member on CRUSHED, it is that staffing requires a sense of profession and maturity. I want to represent the server in the best way I can. By bringing to the table my past virtues and knowledge, I can ensure not only help to staffing team, but to the server's brand and what it looks to represent towards its community.

 

Please provide descriptive answers for the following questions:

 

c1) Define RDM/RDA and describe how players who perform those actions should be punished.

RDM (Random Death Match): when a player kills another for a none rp related reason.

RDA: is when a player arrests another person for a non-roleplay reason.

Both RDA and RDM are warn able unless the person keeps doing it and or is gaining other mass amounts of offenses within the same session

 

c2) Explain "NLR" and provide examples of instances in which it is violated.

NLR is when in a role play situation, (typically a raid) a player dies and then returns to the situation and effects the role play situation/player after the fact

Ex: P1 (Player 1) gets raided by P2 (Player 2). P2 shoots and kills P1. P1 returns to their base and proceeds to resume role play killing P2 or affecting the raid in any way.

 

Ex2: P2 adverts “mug drop 10k or die, you move you die.” and proceeds to wait 10 seconds. After 10 seconds P2 kills P1. P1 walks up to P2 after the fact and arrests/damages/kills or affects P2 in a non-role play manner because of the mugging.

 

c3) Define "metagame" and provide examples of its occurrence.

Metagaming refers to the use of a game knowledge/information typically that is used to affect a role play occurrence. 

Ex: P1 takes a camera and uses a phys gun to observe the items within a base

Ex2: P1 is raiding a base and sees an easier access if they can get to the top of the base so they place a prop enabling them to climb and access that section.

 

Please explain how you would handle each of these situations:

d1) You see a higher up is abusing their powers to the highest severity, how do you react?

 

There are two outcomes from my perspective. First I would open OBS and record as I am lower in the ranking meaning in certain situations the footage would make me more credible if the staff member is denying it. If I am able to record the situation I would first make sure I have proof, then alert a staff member.

Staff member online:If one is on then I would try and call in discord to explain the situation. They would asses the situation with me and after a conversation we would make a decision on how to proceed.

Staff member offline: If there are no staff members online then I would try to dm whoever is online on discord. While waiting for a response and recording I would ask the staff member if they understand what they are doing. The footage would keep me safe from false prosecution and I would be able to at least delay the situation until I can get help from someone else.

 

d2) During a sit, you see someone outside of the sit Mass RDMing. How do you handle the situation?

Well my priority is to maintain the role play of others and govern the server so I would tell the people in the sit to give me a second. Immediately after I would move the rule breaker to a separate area (rooftop, or less populated area). If another staff member is one and volunteers to take care of the Mass RDMer then I would allow them to take over and get back to the prior sit. If not I would grab their steam ID, make sure the player knew what they were doing was wrong and then ban them before returning to the sit.

 

d3) Only two other players are online, and they're building in the streets.’

Two players isn't really enough to role play so as long as nobody else joins and is bothered by it I see it as two people who are wouldn't be harming anything or anyone. If i were to stop them that might infringe on their point of view of the server which is not ideal.
