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 can you be active on the server every day? [School year] Server Sunday- 7 to 10 hours Monday- 4 to 8 hours Tuesday- 4 to 8 hours Wednesday- 2 to 3 hours Thursday- 4 to 8 hours Friday- 5 to 9 hours Saturday- 10-14 hours Forums: Generally same as Server Minechat: Sunday- 1 to 2 hours Monday- 1 to 2 hours Tuesday- 1 to 2 hours Wednesday- 1 to 2 hours Thursday- 1 to 2 hours Friday- 1 to 3 hours Saturday- 2 to 3 hours [Summer] Server Sunday- 7 to 10 hours Monday- 10 to 15 hours Tuesday-10 to 15 hours Wednesday- 5 to 7 hours Thursday- 10 to 15 hours Friday- 11 to 16 hours Saturday- 12 to 16 hours Forums: Generally same as server Minechat: Sunday- 1 to 2 hours Monday- 1 to 2 hours Tuesday- 1 to 2 hours Wednesday- 1 to 2 hours Thursday- 1 to 2 hours Friday- 1 to 3 hours Saturday- 2 to 3 hours 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.
lol I thought I told you I was ecb. Anyway, thanks for the feedback! Thanks for the feedback. Any suggestions?
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.
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
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
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.
