Please be advised I did have permission to submit this application early as I have not yet completed the week of holding the trusted rank.
Basic Information
1. What is your Steam name?:
Mordred
2. What is your Steam ID?:
STEAM_0:0:62264716
3. How old are you?:
19 in April, but I guess 18. 02/04/1998.
4. What is your current time in server and how often do you play?:
I currently have 39 hours (1 day, 15hr) and I play every day if I get the chance. Between university, which includes assignments, readings, lectures and tutorials, and of course, work, I spend the rest of my time gaming. Whether it be Gmod on this server or league of legends. Usually I'm on during the day and a lot of the time it's empty and I would have to wait for someone to join me and we'd slowly build numbers.
5. What time zone are you in?:
UTC+10:00 (Brisbane Time).
6. Introduce yourself to us (tell us about your skills, hobbies, ambitions):
Currently I attend Queensland University of Technology studying a bachelor of Creative Industries majoring in Creative and Professional Writing. My main hobbies would include reading and writing, gaming takes up majority of my time, and perhaps seeing friends pretty often. I started gaming from a young age, growing up with many different consoles. I have experience bartending, waiting and running in a restaurant close to where I live, as I spend a couple hours a week working there. Eventually I would use my degree to become a professional in my field, hopefully creative writing. Either becoming an author, editor or publisher.
7. What experience do you have with administration?:
Over the 4-5 years of playing Garry's Mod I have accumulated 2220 hours, with maybe 80% of that focussed on Trouble in Terrorist Town and the other 20% around DarkRP. I have moderated and administrated on many servers, two of which being Versound Gaming, and Random Gaming (both closed down years ago). With this experience I've helped trusted, admins and super admins with their duties, sometimes taking matters into my own hands such as the time I posted in the ban request forums.
8. What makes you feel like you should be accepted than another applicant?:
I believe my experience and attitude towards the game puts me before any other applicants. My maturity and unbiased behaviour makes my admin style easy to relate to, leaving me with very little complaints. From my perspective I am well liked within the community, offering help and feedback, also adding in my own personal suggestions where I can.
9. How are you going to improve our server?:
Although I believe I already am making a positive impact on the server, allowing me into the administration position will allow me to make a greater impact, helping cleanup the wrongdoers and overall making a better experience for every one. In my personal experience an admin should spend half his game time moderating, and the other playing. It is a responsibility and a privilege that should not be taken lightly.
10. What makes you trustworthy?:
I believe in the time I have been playing I have earn't the trust of nearly every regular player, to the point of becoming good friends. I think primarily my experience in moderating makes me trustworthy. Knowing what I'm doing and being able to do it independently makes me stand out among the rest.
11. Have you ever been punished on the server and if so why?:
No. If I had been punished I don't think I would be considered trustworthy. But in this instance, I have not done anything to make anyone think I was not to be trusted.
12. Name someone's steam name who can support your application?:
I don't think it's fair giving pressure to these people, but if I'm being honest; Mr Waffles, Some Random Gamer, Kortari, Natjosh. I don't want to push my luck by naming more people so yeah.
Situations
13. You have noticed that a staff member is abusing his powers and RDMing because he/she thinks he/she is invincible as an admin. Do you feel that this is right? If not, what would you do in this situation?:
I honestly don't think this would ever happen. Admins are chosen with much consideration and thought that someone who would lose their temper and start RDMing wouldn't be accepted. Anyway, obviously I would investigate before taking our action, find out the cause and reasoning, and if it's something that deserves consequences I'd approach a superior.
14. A young player joins that does not quite understand how to play, how do you show/teach the player how to play?:
Firstly I'd make sure he wasn't just treating it like a deathmatch, then I'd make sure he read the rules. In most cases he wouldn't actually do that, so I'd verbally talk him through it. Show him the basics. I've noticed that people usually skip the rules, so verbal encouragement really helps out.
15. One of the players on the server starts to impersonate yourself/another admin. How would you deal with this player?:
Being friends with most admins or higher it's easy to tell who people actually are. I don't personally see how impersonating an admin would get them anywhere without commands, but still they should be punished. You'd give them a warning to make sure they know they're doing something wrong, and if it continues I'd kick them to get the message across. If he comes back and fails to stop, I'd have to go further with it and give him a ban. Though I doubt it would come to that.
16. You are on the forums and you notice a player being abused by others in the shout box and threads. Are you in control of this/is this your problem to worry about?:
You learn at a young age that bullying isn't acceptable, and if they were feeling hurt by this, it's every ones duty to step in and stop it. At the same time it is the internet, it's a harsh place and everyone gets insulted eventually. You need to learn to get past it and not worry, it's just some random on the internet anyway. Knowing this, if someone was getting bullied and it wasn't just banter, I would step in to help out.
Declaration
I, Mordred, acknowledge the requirements and prerequisites that are needed to become the rank of 'Admin' in the community. I recognise that this is a trusted rank held by only a few and by submitting this application I promise not to devote my time to other competing communities. I acknowledge that I must administrate this server under the rules written by the Owner and I strive to promote a fun to play server with minimal discrimination.
