    SOFTWARE DEVELOPER APPLICATION
    Jonah Kim​
    P.S. My age is not 15, as stated in my forum account, I will tell anyone who DMs me.

    BRIEF DESCRIPTION:
    Hi guys, my name is Jonah, otherwise known as OhSkqy in Minecraft. I am actually not a new member, as I used the account "ItzJonahMC" previously on the server for a long time. If you look into it, you will find that I am a God rank who used to be very active; I just ended up changing my main account.
    My goal with this application is not to be the server developer, as I know I am not active enough to even be a helper, if that rank exists. I have been noticing a wide spectrum of bugs, glitches, and overall problems with the server that stunts its potential growth. Therefore, if accepted, I would love to help repair the server, one plugin, and one server at a time.

    BASIC INFORMATION:
    Your in-game name:
    OhSkqy
    What timezone are you in? Pacific Time Zone
    What country do you live in? Washington, US
    What languages do you speak? English, Spanish, Korean
    Do you have the necessary means of capturing evidence? (i.e. recording software, screenshots, etc): Yes. However, I am going for a developer position, not a moderator, so the need for reporting and capturing evidence is not as important as some other ranks.
    Why do you think you should become a mod? Developer. I will post my credibility and stats down below, but the reason that I am applying is that I do not want to see my childhood server be reduced to a crumbling mess. I have spent years of my life on this server, (albeit a different account), and I want to be a part of its revival.
    How long can you be active on the server everyday? If needed, I can be on around 3-4 times a week, but am available every day for programming new programs.
    How long have you been playing Mineverse? Perhaps 3-4 years, on my other account (ItzJonahMC)
    Have you ever been banned in the past? (Forums & In-game): My (ItzJonahMC) forum account was banned, however, I do not remember why as it was so long ago.
    Do you have any past experience as a moderator? Yes, as a child I created multiple servers and created custom java plugins and algorithms. Also, I helped the staff team on some other small-time servers.

    Do you meet all Mineverse's requirements for staff listed below? Yes
    Do you have 50 Post Count?
    Yes, on my other forum account (ItzJonahMC)
    Do you have Two Factor Authentication set up? I am in the process
    Have you had 2 Weeks registered on the Mineverse forums? Yes, on my other forum account (ItzJonahMC).
    Do you have Skype and Discord for offline communication? Yes, I have discord.

    MY STATS:
    First, I would like to review my high school academics that I hope will prove my credibility as a software developer.
    Disclaimer: I will definitely send proof of my accomplishments if asked.

    AP CLASSES:
    AP WORLD HISTORY (5)

    AP LANGUAGE (5)
    AP LITERATURE (5)
    AP GOVERNMENT (5)

    ACT: 36

    Other accomplishments:
    • High school valedictorian (Western US)
    • 99th percentile in high school
    • Varsity Tennis Team Captain (3 years)
    • HOBY Participant (1-2 sophomores get picked to go to a prestigious seminar about leadership.

    • pretty girls, snapchat me : itzjonahmc
    • Jubilee Reach (4 years) (Helps financially disadvantaged children.
    Why am I eligible for developer?:
    Along with my determination to help the server, I am qualified in all of the programming aspects of being dev.
    • Took 3 AP Computer Science classes in high school
    • Microsoft Internship for Junior and Senior year
    • WANIC Summer camp classes (4 years)
    • Scholarship for UW Computer Science (<5% acceptance rate)
    • Waitlisted for Harvard and Princeton
    • Fluent in Java, JavaScript, C, C++, Python, Ruby, etc
    Activity on the server:
    Recently I have not been active as much as I should have these few years, but I feel that if I am promoted, I would be able to direct my passion for Mineverse into hard work to help the server revive.

    FINAL NOTE:
    Thank you for reading this application. I know that a single page of information is very little to work with when determining the type of person I am, and seeing if I am someone who can benefit the server. However, I hope that I have shown enough in my application to jumpstart some thoughts, and even if I am not accepted, I will probably apply again in the future, with more experience and activity on the server.
    I suspect the biggest argument against my promotion will be my inactivity on my server. I am working hard to dedicate time into my childhood, literally, and will continually strive to improve. Also, as stated before, my previous account ItzJonahMC has many hours on this server, although I don't know if there is a way to check.
    Again, thank you, and I hope you consider me as a great addition to the server.

    P.S.
    Please remember guys! This application is not for moderator, and therefore I won't need as much social presence, although it is still important. I will more often be sitting in the background creating programs for you guys. I hope I covered enough information! Thank you!

    Kind regards,
    Jonah K (OhSkqy)

    I'm not really sure if this is a thing. Your academic, leadership, and extracurricular list is amazing though.

    If they are looking for a plugin developer, I think that you would be the perfect candidate; support. Your academic performance and accomplishments show me that you are more than qualified to take on this position. My only concern is that you are doing so many things concurrently and it might be too much for just one individual. But then again, this is my perspective and it may be a bit of an oversight. Anyways, I give you my full support and I hope that they can accept your application. Good luck!

    Yes, I understand. Are you saying no support because my application is in the Moderator Applications section?

    Well I do meet all the requirements, on my ItzJonahMC account. If proof is needed, I can link my minecraft account to my forum account.

    Support, I don't know if I can though... I took AP Computer Science A last year. I skipped the principles course and plan to take IB HL Computer Science next year. May I ask what you got on your AP tests for your computer science classes?
