a7) Do you have any prior staffing experience? If so, where? I do. I used to be SuperAdmin back on a server a couple of years ago called AtonGaming. i was staff for maybe a year and a half? I have also been Admin on multiple other servers, i dont remember all of them but one was TylersDarkRP. Not only have i staffed multiple servers, ive even owned my own server. Sadly due to financial reasons, it never got real big. But i had multiple people tell me if i could have kept it up financially, it would have been a great server.

Please answer these questions with your honest opinion.
b1) Why do you want to volunteer for XenoRP? Well i see a lot of things i wanna help fix. I can be on a lot until i start working again and then we will see how i can flex my schedule but even when i start working again, i will be able to get on. But i see a lot of times where people need a staff member and there are no staff on duty. If im being honest i love to take calls, so more than likely im gonna be staff on duty almost all the time. But i see a lot of the time there are a lot of people on and almost no staff on duty. I want to change that. I want to help take as many calls as i can so the staff that enjoy RP'ing more than other staff members can do that and not have to worry so much about taking calls. Honestly in general, i just love helping people out as much as i possibly can.

b2) If you were to get accepted, what do you think would make you a good moderator? Well like i was saying i tend to enjoy being a Staff on Duty more than RP'ing. so i feel like with that being said i think thats one reason why i think i would be a good moderator. Other reasons is that i have pretty good people skills, im pretty good at listening to the way that people talk and/or say things and figuring out which one is lying. Ive always been really good at telling how people are just by listening to them or seeing them. Also i have a pretty good understanding of the rules and ULX. I might have to touch up on ULX some because it has been a while since ive played GMOD. The rules part, each day when i get on i read the MOTD for a couple of minutes just so i can remember the rules a little bit better. 

Please provide descriptive answers for the following questions:

c1) Define RDM/RDA and describe how players who perform those actions should be punished. RDM: This is Random Death Match. RDM is where you, intentionally kill another player for no reason what so ever. Depending on the offence. 1st i would say a warn and see if the RDM'er is willing to give the person he RDM'ed back what he/she had lost. 2nd offence would probably be another warn and jail time. 3rd offence would be a ban, 3 strikes your out. Thats the way ive always ran things. RDA: Being completely honest i dont remember the actual name for it XD HOWEVER! RDA is when you randomly arrest someone with no reasoning behind the arrest. 1st offence would be a warn and unjail the person that was jailed. 2nd another warn along with a jail time for the RDA'er. 3rd time would result in a ban.

c2) Explain "NLR" and provide examples of instances in which it is violated. NLR: New Life Rule. New Life Rule is where you come back to the spot of your death within 120 seconds after being killed. Some instances would be say someone is getting raided. Well they get upset that they lost and dont want to lose their printers, bitminers, etc. So they run back to base to try and stop them. This is breaking NLR. At any point that you come back to the spot of your death within that 120 seconds is breaking NLR. But its only honestly a big deal if you come back with the intent to stop who killed you or whomever may be raiding your base. 

c3) Define "metagame" and provide examples of its occurrence. Metagame is using info you have gained from outside your in game knowledge. For example, say a Thief and a Police officer are in game together and also in a party chat. The thief friends a player, goes inside his base, sees if the guy has illegals and then tells the friend that is a police officer. Meanwhile the police officer places a warrant on the guy with the illegals and then arrests him and destroys his stuff. This is Metagaming. 

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? Well i would do my best to try and make them stop without letting them know i am going to talk to someone above them. Then i will go to someone that is higher up than the staff member abusing their powers and report them. I would also get a recording of this happening so i have proof and this way i dont get blamed for trying to get them demoted just because. (yes i have had that happen to me XD tried to tell a higher up, didnt record the staff member abusing, and then i got demoted...)

d2) During a sit, you see someone outside of the sit Mass RDMing. How do you handle the situation? Depends on the type of sit im in. If its for someone that accidentally RDM'ed or something like that, i would just tell them to hang one a sec and then go down and ban the person Mass RDM'ing. However if im in sit where something might happen if i leave the two alone, i will jail both until i have dealt with the guy Mass RDM'ing and then come back to finish the sit for both situations. 

d3) Only two other players are online, and they're building in the streets. I would still ask them nicely not to build in the streets. if it keeps happening then i will warn them or do whatever i need to. You NEVER want to allow a few people to do whatever they want. 1. it leaves a terrible impression on the server for new players when they join. 2.the players building will tell their friends about it and then they will get on and then all hell will break loose. Never a good idea to let anyone break the rules just because they are the only other players on the server. 

I also want to add that i realize im pretty new and not everyone will know me. Im doing my best to try and talk to each staff member separately so i can get to know them. i just felt like i should go ahead and put this in giving the situation regarding the lack of staff going on duty. Not saying that the staff on the server are lazy or bad or anything. its just i felt like i could make it to where other staff can continue to RP and i will take the sits. I hope that sounded right XD  

Also want to add as well. Im 18 years of age, i do have a mic, i am pretty active on the server and i am on the discord
