Before Reading: Hello, before you read my moderator application, I would like to make a few disclaimers. I know to be a forums mod, you must be a mod on an actual server, which I am not. I am deciding to try something new because it may work. So please do not leave rude/disrespectful comments on trying to correct my knowledge when I already know that. Please note, your feedback is very important to me, so please give me as much feedback as you have, whether it be positive or negative. Thanks, and enjoy reading my forums moderator application! What is your MineCraft name: SkarYT [Soon to be changed to SkarHD] Why do you play minecraft: I play Minecraft because it gives me a chance to breath. I have a very busy life, and whenever I can find free time, I choose to be on the forums. I am on the forums almost 24/7 [Besides about 8-10 Hours of sleep] Minecraft has been a very good game for me since I was 11. That's when I decided to start playing. As I said earlier, and I may mention many times, this application is for the forums. I would be more than happy to help out on the Minecraft server, but I am making this application for the forums. What is your TimeZone: Pacific Time Zone (UTC-08:00) When are you usually online: I am on the forums from about 8:00am-11:00pm. As I said, I am available on the forums whenever, and I read about every single thread posted! How many hours a day can you play? How many hours do you actually play: I am on the forums about 10-14 hours per day [I know, its sad xD] but, I try to help out players, by showing some the moderator application format, and giving them a few rules/guidelines to follow. How long have you been playing SquadCraft: I have been playing Squadcraft for about 3 and a half years. I decided to start playing back in about 7th Grade, now I am in 10th grade. I don't play as much anymore, for I am on the forums a ton, and have a pretty busy life, but like I said, I would be able to take on any challenge you would like me to do. What's your favourite memory on SquadCraft: My favorite memory on Squadcraft was when I bought the 'Gold' rank the first day I joined, and my friend alex_a_13 bought the 'Diamond' rank. We played all night, from about 10:00pm to 7:00am. We built a base, and had a zombie spawner going, man we were doing well! Where do you spend your time at SquadCraft: I spend my time on the forums. When I do hop on SquadCraft for about an hour or so, I spend a lot of my time on Skywars, or Factions. Why do you want to be a moderator? What is your goal as a SquadCraft moderator: My goal is to help other players. I would really like to add to the cause, because our wonderful moderators [@EA_Sharks, @-=[CREEPERBOT360]=-, @PukingRainbowz , and @xSkaro, @iiDragonZz ] spend so much of their time helping out the server, and I feel as if it needs more attention on the forums. I see @xSkaro, @EA_Sharks, @PukingRainbowz, and @iiDragonZ on the forums almost as much as myself, but I still feel that I can add to the cause of helping. The forums is a very friendly community, and thats why I like it. I believe that anyone should have a chance to become moderator, but some cannot find the format, or some need an example. So, thats where I come in and help them out. As a moderator, how will you effect SquadCraft: I will effect Squadcraft by giving every player a chance. I believe that everyone deserves a chance. Some people can ruin their chance by swearing, or hacking, etc. But I believe new players, who don't know where the format is, etc. Still deserve a chance. As a mod, I will do my best to not only guide new players, but also help them out in the greatest way that I can. Do you want Mod just to have Mod next to your name: Not at the slightest. I am very aware that many people have come in and tried to do such. I will do everything I have said, help/guide new players, and make the experience for everyone... better. What happens if you are not chosen to be a moderator: I will not be upset at all. I understand how busy the staff team is, and most of you guys don't have time to read my app. I totally understand. What kind of skills do you have: As I said earlier, I am very helpful. I really like to help new players who don't know the rules, or don't know where the format is, etc. I am also kind to other players. I think that everyone deserves a chance to be respected. Have you ever been banned? If so, Why: No, I have never been banned. On my BigTea account, I was banned once, but it was all because of a misunderstanding Evravon had. I was shortly unbanned after that. Have you ever cheated, used hacks? If so, Why: Yes, I used to hack back when I started Minecraft. I was mostly due to peer pressure, but I'm not going to write some long story about how it wasn't my fault. Because it was. I was the one who downloaded it, put it on my computer, and did it. So, yes I did use hack, back about 2 years ago. How do you treat younger players: I will treat them like the rest of the players. I will give younger players extra guidance, and help, because at most times they need it. But I will be more aware of swearing. (not that I won't be already, I will just be more strict about it) Do you use teamspeak or skype: I use both. Surge already has me added on skype, but if any other staff member would like to add me, feel free to PM me. I can also use Teamspeak whenever needed. List the things you've done to help the SquadCraft community and the SquadCraft server: I've helped out lots of players. I have showed newer players where the mod application format is, or the ban appeal format, pretty much every format needed, I've showed a player where to go. I have also created a General chat guidline thread, just to make moderating easier for staff members. (Thread here: http://squadcraft.net/threads/a-few-guidelines-for-general-chat.13783/) How many applications have you submitted before? When was the last one: I submitted about 6 applications. My last one was about 3-5 months ago. Is there anything else you would like to say: I just want to say thank you. Thank you all for even giving me the chance to apply, because becoming a moderator on the forums page would mean so much to me. I really enjoy talking to players, and helping them out. As I said before, I specialize in guiding players to do the right thing! Do you have any experience as a staff member of any organization? (doesn't have to be minecraft): Yes, I have been a helper on the Hypixel server. I decided to resign because it took up way too much time, and I had never really enjoyed it because of the amount of players/servers there were to handle. I just felt very overwhelmed. Tell us about yourself, about you, your character, personality and values: Well, I am planning on becoming a police officer, firefighter, or joining the Military when I get older. I like these jobs because they all involve helping, which I love doing! Most would say that I have a great personality, but others may disagree. There will always be people in life who do not agree with you or your opinion, which is fine with me. Thank you: Thank you all so much for reading this application. Please remember I made this for the forums, but I am more than glad to help out on the server! Have a great day/night, and again, thank you so much for reading! -Skarmick
