★ Introduction ★ Hello my name is Misty! I have not been on more than 5 servers and two have since been retired. I have been here a couple years now and have always enjoyed what Mineverse has to offer. I have made a mod app in the past but it did not get much support, mostly due to format used… basically a wall of text so I am using Delta’s layout. (Hope you don’t mind!)★ What time-zone are you in ★ My time-zone is GMT -8 Pacific Coast (Oregon ;) ) ★ What is your location ★ I live on the West Coast of the United States and am on various hours of the day and night. I am a night owl and am on even when there are only 4 (yes 4) other people on survival, the server I play the most. ★ How old are you ★ I am 30 years old, but will still turn 5 when I see bubbles. I am an old woman by minecraft standards as most of our players are between the ages of 10 and 16 and feel like a mother protecting her pups when online. ★ What is your in-game name ★ My in-game name is currently __BadWolf__ but used to be Mistycrow. ★ What languages can you speak ★ I speak American English, I say American because we have such a loose version of English. ★ Evidence of rule breakers ★ When it comes to catching hackers I use both screenshots and videos. I will use first whichever I think is more necessary for the rule the other player is breaking. • Screenshots • When the issue is in chat, my first reaction is to take screenshots. I have the screenshot folder pinned to my easy access in my start menu. • Recording • If the issue occurring is with something the player is DOING and not SAYING I will hit record and upload it to my youtube account for reporting purposes. ★ How long can you go online Mineverse ★ I live off of SSI and have no life. I used to be a volunteer at the local animal shelter but that wasn’t working out so my schedule is as open as a child during summer.• Sunday-Saturday• I usually get up around 12-2pm and stay up until dawn as I have insomnia. The only times I would not be available is when I am babysitting my nephew(s) which occurs about twice a month or so. ★ How long have you been on Mineverse ★ I have been a member of the server for about 2 years and the forums as well for that amount of time.• In-Game • I have been playing for most of the two years with a 9-month hiatus. • Forums • I am constantly on the forums. If I am checking out Facebook, I’m checking out the forums. I am on the forums more than the server at times. Usually when just waking up and before my coffee kicks in. ★ Have you ever been banned before ★ I have, on survival. There was an issue where I was telling people about a warp to the end and someone, right after I said it, created it into a death warp and I got punished for it. Before being banned I had fixed the death drop and claimed it so that people would not be able to make it into a death warp again. This was in the old map and I gave evidence of my repair yet was still banned for a bit. That was the only issue I have had on this server and I understand why it happened and harbor no resentment. ★ Have you ever been a moderator ★ Yes, I was staff for a now retired server called Lucky Kingdom. There I had the opportunity to monitor the actions of our large member base and have dealt with pretty much every sort of problem there could be from grief, disrespect, spam, bots... you name it. I was always referred to as the kindest staff member even by those who had been banned. I feel I am very good at talking with members about the rules they are breaking and sometimes would come to a solution that did not require banning, such as them fixing grief they had caused, apologizing to the member they had disrespected or paying back for something wrong they had done to another. There have been times when it was difficult to talk with a member about what they did that was wrong and it had not worked out and they ended up being banned but I do try to use that as a last resort. ★ Why should you become a mod ★ I am a very firm believer in adhering to the rules. I like everyone to have a fun and enjoyable experience while on the servers Mineverse provide. When players are not obeying the rules, it makes it less enjoyable. I often create reports of people when I am online with sufficient evidence as to what rules they are breaking. I know we have several mods already and people are constantly putting in mod applications so I thought I'd give it another shot. When a player is not obeying rules, I try to talk to them about it in a nice way and letting them know that they are breaking a rule and to please stop the illegal activity they are doing, be it disrespect, spam or other. Sometimes I get a good reaction and people actually do stop. Those that do not, I put in a report for. • Kindness • I try to be as kind as I can and help out others when they have a question… be it about Mineverse, a feature of Minecraft, how to craft something, rules or just need an open ear to rant to about something. • Popularity • I don’t really know how popular I am but in the old map I seemed to be rather popular, or at least my shop was. • Trustworthy • I always tell the truth, never abuse my power and adhere to the rules as much as possible. • Calm • I try not to get worked up when dealing with someone and try to talk it out in a calm manner. Kids can be finicky little buttheads sometimes but if you are calm and talk to them with kindness, respect and understanding, sometimes you don’t even need to ban and they will want to make amends for their actions. This doesn’t always happen, mind you, but it does make things easier. • Respect • I am as respectful as I can be. Sometimes I will say something that might come off hurtful and if so I always apologize and try to make up for it. • Experience • As I said above, I have been staff of another server and I do have experience dealing with wrongdoings. I have been a minecraft player since before the Nether was even thought of. Shortly after the introduction of beds. Yet every day I am still learning new things about the game, about the people on the server and about the plugins within the server. • Maturity • As a 30 year old woman I consider myself pretty mature, if you are not mature at this age… There is something wrong with you. lol ★ Outro ★ I hope I have the support of my fellow members and thank you for taking the time to consider me for moderator. ~Bad Wolf~
Support. Please separate the sections though, and possibly bold the questions. The wall of text can be hard to read. Good luck! Edit: All mods are global now, as well.
Everyone is a global mod now, so you have moderator privileges on every section on Mineverse. Just saying :P Support.
I am truly sorry I just noticed that now. Even though I have been looking at forums constantly so I don't know how I missed it. I read your app a second time and you honestly seem like a very good candidate for moderator. I am leaning towards support very strongly but there are a few things that I want to see improved. Or really just 1, be more active on forums is all I ask of you. Other than that you seem like the perfect person for mod. Along with one more thing so I guess 2 not 1. Be more active on more game modes. I have only seen you on survival. So I am strongly leaning towards the support side of neutral. Just improve on those two things. Good luck, Signed, SnakeVenomPvP
I give you my full support, I know you're a really caring person which is honestly great as we don't have too many people on these forums who are like that, you're also really active on Survivial which is what we need. Good luck!
Yes. Yes! YES! Misty, you don't know how much I support you. You have got to be on of the kindest and respectful people here, and you are very mature. You are active and know the community well. There is not one thing that I would ask for you to change, and I think you will make an amazing moderator. Good Luck <3
