I'mma be real with ya'll I don't think I deserve much, I'm just applying because It's something to do that'll help me be able to help others. I enjoy being able to help others and being staff is the biggest way to do it. I've always disliked troublemakers and being able to deal with said troublemakers mean's I can make this server a less toxic place and a place that can be played and traversed without running into issues with other players or having to face inter/extra-server drama while playing the game. I'm a nice guy, I listen, I know what I'm doing(most of the time), I have binds set and I already have a general grasp on what to do. Quotas and meetings are something I can't meet usually but I almost always try my best when it comes to those.  I just wanna be able to help however I can. 

Scenario questions: 

: How would you handle someone that is Mass RDMing and when you bring him/her to an admin sit all they do is curse at you?

If I took a sit and the person the sit was made on started swearing like a sailor, I would firstly gag them and explain that this is no way to treat people on the server and he should take time to reflect afterwards. Then I would ask the person who made the sit to present their evidence while I check logs as well to confirm their story.

Once I watch the clip and check logs I would then go over and calmly explain to the suspect in question that they have been confirmed to have Mass RDM'd and that I will have to issue a warning and I will be contacting my higher ups for a 5 day ban. I will then explain to them that they can use this time to reflect and come back ready to play once the ban is lifted.

After that, I will go over to the person who made the sit and explain that the perpetrator will be dealt with and that they will be returned momentarily. After returning the player I will warn the perpetrator and contact a higher up to issue the ban. 

 

:  You've Pulled someone into a sit for (___) and they simply couldn't care less of whatever punishment they are receiving.  

In this case there's only 2 things to do,  follow your orders as staff, explain their punishments and administer the Punishments, They don't want to be there and neither do you, get the sit done as soon as possible so everyone could have a somewhat good day.     If they don't care, there's zero reason to be logical with them or have them listen to reason, because they won't listen. Give the punishments and close the sit, and go on with your duties as a honorable staff member of Gaminglight. 

 

: You are involved in a staff sit that involves 5 different players. The players begin to get frustrated and the sit becomes very toxic and unproductive. What would you do in this situation?

I would first tell the players to calm down and to explain what happened. If they continue to argue, I would gag every player and ungag each player at a time so that they can each give me their points of view on how the situation happened.
I would then check logs if it was something such as RDM, and ask if any of them have any footage or pictures of the incident so that I can make sure what was happening is true. After being provided the footage, I would go the player that made the problem and ask them to explain themselves.
  If they don't seem apologetic and doesn't intend to actually follow the rules of the server, I would punish them accordingly.
I would also make sure to let them know that if they don't feel what I did was the correct action for me to do, they can appeal their warning/ban on the forums. 

 

 

Note: I don't expect this one to go through since I just got back a few days ago, and some things have changed but, people still recognize me and I still know everything I need to know

You definitely had a bit of a rough patch last time you were here, but you owned up to it and took the necessary measures. I believe you can be an effective staff member if you keep that same mentality and just remember to think before you act and speak.

yamato your format hurts my eyes

[Lovelock]

Going to be honest I have not seen you properly on the server since your last warn in 2022, I also will agree with Sulfur the format does hurt but I am giving a -support for the fact I have not seen you properly

[Saint :)]

As someone who used to be around with him during his first go-around as staff, I do believe that he would be an effective staff member to have around.

During my time with him two years ago, he was a very engaging community member, however he did have the tendency to get a bit heated with players at times, but that was only because he was very emotionally invested in the server.

But with that being said, I do think Yamato is ready to take up the mantle again as staff, and I look forward to working with him should he be accepted.
