Sho Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 (edited) Hello! Thank you for clicking on my application. I hope you enjoy reading it. a1) What is your in-game (RP) name? It is currently, "Rapidfire the Reformed Thief". a2) Provide a link to your Steam profile. https://steamcommunity.com/id/rapidfiretheassassin/ a3) What is your Discord Tag? (ie: SomeUser#1234) Rapidfire (Jake)#3848 a4) What timezone are you located in? I am located in the Eastern Standard Time Zone. a5) How many in-game warns do you have? I only currently have two warns, each of which is over a year old now. a6) Have you ever been banned? If so, explain why? Nope. The closest I have been is kicked for reaching warning threshold. But that was over a year ago. Almost two I think. a7) Do you have any prior staffing experience? If so, where? Yes I do! I actually staffed Xeno a year or two ago, and I am back from boarding school now. I was unable to continue staffing but would love the chance to rejoin the team, if possible. Please answer these questions with your honest opinion. b1) Why do you want to volunteer for XenoRP? XenoRP is my favorite server on G-Mod. It is consistently one of the only servers I join, and I would love to see it grow. The staff are wonderful, and I understand it can be stressful. I would love to assist by moderating the server in times where others are offline, or unavailable. b2) If you were to get accepted, what do you think would make you a good moderator? I think I fit well with the staff and player base, and am dedicated to my duties. I am capable, and understand how to be an effective moderator, due to extensive training by (Stephanie? I can't remember the Admin who trained me..). I would be just, and strict when needed. I understand the rules quite well, and would enforce them accurately. I spend an expansive time on the server, close to 10 hours a day, so I will be able to cover a lot of time while online. I am good at dealing with people, especially children. I can handle rough situations, and typically defuse them without a problem. I have the confidence to inspire anyone who may come after me. 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 stands for Random Deathmatch. This occurs when a player kills another player outside of a roleplay reason. This is typically done by trolls or minges in order to get reactions. A player who commits RDM once will be warned. A player who Mass RDMs is banned for a week. RDA- This stands for Random Arrest. This occurs when a player arrests another player in game using the taser outside of a roleplay reason. A player who commits RDA will be warned. Mass RDA will result in either demotion, or kick. c2) Explain "NLR" and provide examples of instances in which it is violated. NLR- NLR stands for New Life Rule. This means that when you die, you forget everything that happened in your past life. This rule can be violated in many ways: revenge killing a player, returning to your base or the PD during a raid after dying, raiding a base and finding the printer room; and then heading immediately back, etc. Anything that you should not remember, can be abused. That makes it violating NLR. c3) Define "metagame" and provide examples of its occurrence. Metagaming is possessing knowledge you shouldn't know, and using it to your advantage. Again, there are many examples: A player refusing to let a Hitman in, solely due to the "Hit Accepted" tag above their head, a player dying to see through a wall; and then using that knowledge to influence a raid. (This also violates NLR.), shooting a player's hands through a door while they are lock picking. Those are just a few of the many examples. 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? I would immediately get in contact with someone above them, in order to report their actions. If they were not online, I would attempt to stop the abuse myself, while trying to contact an admin. I would figure out who the abuse affected, and find a way to repair the situation. d2) During a sit, you see someone outside of the sit Mass RDMing. How do you handle the situation? I would politely ask the people in the sit to wait for a minute, (or two.), while I !goto the person RDMing. I would then freeze them, and jail them in another sit location while keeping track of their STEAM:ID, (that way I can punish them if they LTAP.) I would then return to my sit and apologize for the delay. I would complete the sit and return to the RDMer, to ban him. d3) Only two other players are online, and they're building in the streets. I would remind them of the server rules. If they refused to remove their builds, I would remove them with the remover tool. If they continue to refuse to remove the builds, I would warn them. Further refusal would be a kick for violating server rules. Thank you for reading my application! I look forward to seeing the responses, and if I am accepted, I look forward to rejoining the team and helping, however I can! If anyone has any questions, you can feel free to PM me here, or comment on this post. Thank you!! -Jake (Rapidfire) Edited March 19, 2020 by 合法 最高の | Rapidfire Updated to have accurate warns.
