(4b) Do you understand that you can be let go at any time for excessive inactivity at our discretion? - I understand that completely. Yes
(5.) Do you understand and agree to not only comply with, but also enforce the rules of the server when necessary? - Yes
(5a) Please explain each of the main server rules and what they each mean, to convey to us that you understand and comprehend them wholly.
1. No fail RP: Don't break character if currently participating in RP.
2. Be respectful: Do not call people hurtful names, no racism, just be a generally decent human being XD
3. No RDM: randomly killing people is a big no no, especially mass rdm
4. Obey staff and RP leaders: listen to teachers/ staff/ and enforcers
5. No free-spelling: randomly casting annoying or damaging spells
6. No metagaming: making use of knowledge while in RP that a player has learned out of character, which their character does not know
7. Do not mic spam or chat spam: playing music or screaming into the mic, or spamming the same thing in chat over and over again.
8. Telemail is for RP purposes only: Use telemail only for arresting people or announcing homework for example
9. No ERP: No talking sexual in any way shape or form!
10. No exploiting or cheating of any kind: that's pretty self explanatory tbh. but for context no speed hacks jump hacks or killing exploits.
(6.) Tell us a little about yourself and why you would like to be accepted for a volunteer staffing position on SBS. (100 words or less) -I have played this server for years and constantly am thinking of ways it could improve. I love G-mod and play almost daily. This server at the times I play usually doesn't have any staff on at all. I would just love to keep the server a great place to RP.
(7.) In your opinion, which quality of yourself do you feel that you need to improve on the most? - i do not trust people and that's a problem in my real life.
(7a) In your opinion, which skill set of yours do you feel that you need to improve on the most? - I am bad with money would love to get better at that.
(8.) How would having you on our volunteer staff team benefit our server and what qualities set you apart from the rest of the applicants? - Well i really care about the server for 1. I am on usually when there is no staff available. 2 i am very patient and understanding. I don't get too overly excited and try to look at things rationally. I would be a great fit for the simple fact that I don't want to see the server fail!
(9.) Have you ever previously maintained a game server staffing position, or currently are, on any other Garry's Mod servers? If so, which ones, and in which staffing positions? (List them if possible) - Unfortunately not.
(10.) Have you ever previously been banned on any Garry's Mod or SBS servers? If yes, then please list approximately when, how long, and the reasoning(s). - NEVER
(11.) In your opinion, are the server staff or the players of more importance? Why? - the players because without players you don't have a server. but at the same time staff are just as equally important to make sure rules are enforced properly
(12) How would you rate your skills overall out of 10 (E.g., patience, response time, etc.) - I will be completely honest and say an 8.5
(13.) If you find yourself in a 'staff-sit' where you're unsure of how to fairly distribute punishment and or handle the situation or discrepancy at hand, what do you do? - the biggest thing is proof for he said she said situations. If there is no proof the best thing to do is top calm both parties and explain to them that proof is needed for any action taken, unless I see it with my own eyes. if its a situation where i just plainly don't know what to do I would simply ask a staff member who might be available at the time. All in all sometimes its better to go at your own discretion with things. you can never account for every and all situations that might arise.
(14.) You both understand and realize, that by applying for a volunteer staffing position on the server, you are sacrificing the complete freedom of being able to role-play and or socialize freely all the time without any interruptions, and are obligated to handle all server issues and or volunteer staff position tasks at hand no matter the situation and to the best of your abilities? - i understand this and am ready for it!
(15.) If applicable, please provide a list of all your previous volunteer staff applications, provide a link to them if possible, and list any reasons why they may have been locked. If they were previously accepted, please provide a short explanation of why you are no longer volunteer staff at the time of this application. (Disregard if this is your first application) - I haven't been staff before on any Gmod servers. would love to change that though :)
I just want to say thank you for taking the time to look at my application and I hope you have a wonderful Day/ Evening! ?
