[USA] TheChrisBush's 2nd App

TheChrisBush's 2nd Mod App​

Introduction
This is my second application as I felt that the first one was trashy, undetailed, and, to some extent, untrue. I also took some time off of Mineverse and in the meantime, requested my application to be closed. I also took a couple weeks off to mature and think about what it really would take to be a moderator. When I made my first application, I was inexperienced, inappropriate, and immature. I decided I would start from scratch, and create a better, more detailed, one hundred percent true application. So let us get started.

How old are you?
As of February 8, 2016, I am 13 years of age, and I will be until October.

Your in-game name.
My current in-game name is ecb1005. I have also had the username's xXItsABushXx and thechrisbush.

What time zone are you in?
I am in Central time.

What country do you live in?
I live in the United States of America.

What languages do you speak?
I am currently fluent in English, and I am planning on learning Spanish.

Do you have the necessary means of capturing evidence? (i.e. recording software, screenshots, etc)
I do have access to screenshots; however, I do not currently have a youtube channel, thus cannot upload any video evidence.

Why do you think you should become a mod?
One thing that I expressed in my last application was that I genuinely want to help the server. I am not applying for moderator for the perks, or the high status. I genuinely desire to help this server build back up to its highest potential.

Some other traits that I possess that I believe are essential to being a good mod are listed below.

Honest
I am not really one to lie. I am not perfect, but that just isn't an area I struggle in. If I am asked a question, or asked to tell my opinion, I am honest.

Kind
An essential trait to being a good moderator is being kind. In order to make a happy, pleasant environment, you need kindness. I would not hesitate to punish when a punishment is due, but I will not do so in an aggressive or abusive way. Kindness is an important trait that, I believe, is a trait that I possess.

Trustworthy
I am one that can be trusted. If I am given a task or job, you can know that I will do it to the best of my ability. If I am given powers such as /ban, /kick, and /mute, I would not, under nay circumstances, abuse them.

Helpful
For me, I like to help people. While I may not have the ability to help at all circumstances, I still try my best and see what I can do to help. I listen to people's problems and see what it is they need. I then, if at all possible, help. I believe that this is one, if not the, most important trait of a good moderator.

Respectful
I am respectful. I would respect admins as my bosses, mods as my peers, and players as my friends. I would give all due respect to all staff and players.

Listening
I've always heard something that I took to heart: "The first step to maturity is learning to listen." This is something I believe to be true. One of the things that, not just mineverse, but the world lacks, is listening. A moderator needs to be able to listen to a players needs and listen to specifically what their problem is. I have been working on that for the last 2 years or so, and I believe I have done a pretty good job at it.

Mature
I know what you guys are going to say: "But I heard you joking about this." Well, being mature doesn't mean you can't crack a joke from time to time. It means you need to learn to control yourself when it's a serious matter. I believe that is a trait I have.

Not Abusive:
I know how to correctly handle Moderator powers, and I will not abuse them. I
also will still punish players, even if they are friends. I know when I have gone too far, and when I have not gone far enough.

Loyal
Loyalty is a very important trait that all people need in all aspects of life. If I were mod I would be loyal to Mineverse.

How long have been playing Mineverse?
Almost 3 years, more or less. I am not sure exactly how long, but I know I started playing some time between Minecraft 3.0 and 5.0. I have been playing Mineverse for almost as long as I have played Minecraft itself.

Have you ever been banned in the past? (Forums & In-game)
I have been temp banned on lobby 3 for server hating, which was an incorrect ban. I have never received further than a warning on the forums for flaming.

Do you have any past experience as a moderator?
I do have experience on a very small server, that later was shut down. I will admit that the time I served was not significant and did not provide sufficient experience to operate a large server.

Neutral, just become more active on forums.

I didn't know you're ecb!!

 

Neutral

 

lol I thought I told you I was ecb. Anyway, thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks for the feedback. I'm usually on Creative, OpFacs, or Bedwars if you want to see me in-game.

 

I play BedWars and now to think of it you're very active there :')

Maybe I suggest making more reports on the pvp game modes?

Anyways, I'm changing to a support.

 

Thanks for the support! I usually don't play any of the pvp game modes, but do understand that I make an effort to play all of Mineverse's gamemodes.

 

Support

 

Thanks for the Support!

 

I am going to have to say no support.
1. Add a little more detail
2. Be more active on forums
3. Be more active in game. (I am fairly active on OpFacs and I can't say I have ever seen you)

Change these things and I will change to a support.

Signed,

SnakeVenomPvP

 

Thanks for the feedback. I'll be sure to work on these.

 

Support. This seems promising. Good luck!

 

Thanks Ivy!

 

Im not sure but i see everyone has the same layout (and this is the one you have) i think you have been copying a bit from other applications but as you have added loads of information im going to say Neutral Good luck

 

No support.
@SnakeVenomPvP said why

 

I pretty much kept the same layout, yes, but all the information is my own. I took a look at the accepted applications and pieced together what I thought would be best, but the actually info stands as 100% my own.

 

No support

 

Reason/Suggestions?

 

Support. Good luck
