Colonial Marines Character:Natashya Katuysha

Age:17

Gender:Very Complicated, if you'd like to talk about it, PM, etc.

Timezone: Currently I am in America, although I do mainly live in Germany. I live in (UTC-06:00) Central Time (US & Canada)

On average, how many hours are you available per week to moderate?
As many as required, I am in courses in school here in Texas, which I only go from 7:00 AM, CDT, to 11:30 AM CDT, so I am able to moderate from there, untill around 10:30, 11:00 PM CDT on weekdays, and all night on weekends

Do you have any previous experience in being staff (not just SS13)?
Yawn station has been up for years, I went from being a lowly mod, to head mod, admin, head admin, and now I am the owner of the server, the ACTUAL host, just hosts it for me, thats my main experience, as well as running a few steam communities in the past, and owning several DayZ Mod servers back before private hives existed in DayZ Mod.
Did you play any of the previous Colonial Marine servers?
Yes, the older version.
Have you had an application to Colonial Marines before?
Not that I am aware of.
Are you currently a staff member elsewhere (not just SS13)? If so, where?
Yawn Station 13, where I am the head Admin/owner, although I'm never really active, as the server is basically dead, except on the weekends, when maybe 3-4 players get on.

Have you ever been banned for more than 24 hours on Colonial Marines?
I think once, but I'm pretty sure all bans were wiped or people were forgiven for all previous bans or something such as that a while back, because I recall that happening.
Common Staff Situations:
Write a description of what you would do in each situation (BELOW) the situation. If you start it on the same line, I'll assume you can't follow directions and auto-decline your application.



1. A player is firing his weapon in the briefing area near the start of the round.
PM the player and tell him to stop what he is doing, and please explain to you what is going on, if MP's arrive, ask them in LOOC to please hold on for a minute while the situation is diffused, PM anyone who was at the scene of it just to be sure there was nothing else going on, if nothing was there, ask him to please not do it again, and if MP's are still there let them deal with him, as it is then a IC problem


2. The Sulaco has a breach to space.
Repeat in OOC ((Nearly got caught on this one as I just remembered by going through and checking again, as it used to be a rule)) That breaching is not against the rules, if they say it is, ask them if they have a problem with that rule, to please discuss it on the forums.


3. The marines want the nuke codes because they claim they are losing too many marines. There are currently 4 aliens and 20 marines in your /who.
Give a message from CC back to them alerting that sensors show many healthy marines, and that the request for codes are denied.


4. A Sulaco researcher has made several napalm grenades and hands them out to marines. One of the marines throws the grenade into Logistics. There are no admins or other moderators online.
Warn the researcher that Napalm/Fire Bombs are against the rules, and warn the marine especially about it, add notes to both, if more than a few high ranking officers were killed, or alot of people died, ban the marine and PM anyone that the Researcher had gave a bomb to to drop theirs for deletion.


5. A played is starting to talk about the things he did with your mom last night over Ahelp.
Turn the other cheek, and hit the mute player Ahelp in player panel. with that cheek without dignifying something that ridiculous with a response.


6. You notice a marine with a name that doesn't fit our naming rules.
Warn him about his name, and ask him if he would like it changed to something more suitable, and what that would be, and ask him to change it next round as well. Add a note to be sure.

6a. The marine is arguing that: They've used the name for several years, noone has told them to change it before, and that they didn't know it was a rule.
Ask them as politely as possible to review http://cm-ss13.com/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=1363, on the section of Marine Specific rules. Add a note as well.


7. You see a Sulaco Doctor with an M41A rifle strapped to his back running around the briefing area. There are wounded in medbay, and the other doctor is in surgery.
PM the doctor, and warn him that he cannot have weaponry unless he is about to die, then ask him why he is not working in medbay, check his notes, and add a note over this.


8. You see a Squad Medic performing surgery on the planet. He claims it was because there were no doctors in the FOB.
PM him and warn him about it then suggest he might have instead requested a doctor come down to the FOB, make sure to check notes incase he's known for this for further punishment.


9. The round is stagnating. There are 30 marines and 4 aliens. The marines won't leave the Sulaco, and the aliens won't attack. What would you do, to "encourage" the sides to engage each other?
Send in a CC report stating 'Scans are showing very little in the form of life signs on the surface, yet the Sulaco is showing many, Sulaco, report your situation' afterwards, request the marines attack.


10. The round ends, and a marine starts unloading his weapons on other marines.
Give him a 3 hour ban.


11. A marine who has recently awoken is using soap to slip other marines.
PM him and ask him why he is doing this, it is likely he is just a troll, if this is the case warn him and write a note down, check notes as well just to be sure he's not known for doing such, if he is a troll, give him a 1 hour ban, if he comes back after the one hour ban and continues to troll, give him a 12 hour, just let it rack up.


12. A marine has killed another marine. When you ask him why, he said it was because the other marine had punched him.
Ask him politely if he has read the rules and check his notes, give him a one hour ban, as a warning and cooldown time, and ask the other marine if he would like to either be healed, or cloned as normal



Any additional information you'd like to add?
If any of you Mods/Administrators know me for being an ass and such, as I have been to quite a few in the past, I've been going through a rough time, dropping my depression meds, and many other meds, as they were causing me quite alot of problems so I hope you can forgive me for my past rude behavior, and look towards the future, and start off with a clean slate here, I'm turning my life around, and I'd like people to know that I'm not the same person I used to be a few months ago, anyways, have a good day, It'd be a pleasure working with you guys.

Are you currently a staff member elsewhere (not just SS13)? If so, where?
Yawn Station 13, where I am the head Admin/owner, although I'm never really active, as the server is basically dead, except on the weekends, when maybe 3-4 players get on.

.

Well for starters you got hooked by the trick question.
Anyway. First things first.. your forum activity is rather low. And I also don't know who you are in game so I'm not sure how active you are there either. Maybe I just havnt ran into you. Also ban times are a bit on the low side as well. Someone can correct me but I think we have a minimum of 3 hour ban as most of our rounds here last a good 2 to 3 hours.
This is one of the requirments to be a staff member here. You must not already be a staff member on another SS13 server
Some of the answers are alright but can be improved on.
So for now I'm going to have to go with a negative for now. Based to change depending on other responces.

-1

[BeyondMyLife]

Just a message to you TR, My Forum activity is low, because I don't contribute to meaningless arguments, I only came on here for one suggestion, which was extremely liked, but never got put in, and the ideal for the ban time is if they come back and try it again, you ban them again, ban times can easily be changed and upped, as well as I am the OWNER of that server, which is inactive at the time, so I am in all technical terms, at full availability, just for further clarification, and wow, I just read this and it sounds pretty hostile

Just to add on to what you posted, /INACTIVE/ nobody is on it, I am currently retired from that server, and play on other servers, therefore it is not played on, never played on for a matter of fact, besides maybe on weekends, and I don't even get on then, so yeah, I am /INACTIVE/ staff on there, yet again, sounding a bit hostile. not meaning to.

[Feweh]

I have no idea who you are and ive never seen in-game.

Also, whats with the whole gender thing? Kind of erked me the wrong way.

EDIT: Neutral

[BeyondMyLife]

Ask SASOperative, or Apophis who I am, SASOperative knows very well who I am.

And to be clearly honest with you, I am on Colonial quite alot, if you knew me, that would usually indicate that I am a griefer.

About the gender, I am a hermaphrodite, with the male parts removed

And about me, I am currently 17 years old, missing both legs due to a staph infection from rusty nails around the house, I have prosthetics, and I use them often, so I'm basically a 17 year old cripple with female parts, enough for you to know me?

PS. I was just on the other day, lol, you were the CL or some shit like that who took over the ship and they were writing shittons of S.O.S's, when the bridge got flooded, I had just ran in as a engi, and was waiting to try to weld a bridge door shut, I got dragged out by aliens and killed while you guys all stared at me being dragged away, doing nothing? Remember? Hahahaha.... I hate some marines.

[Jack McIntyre]

I have seen your marine around before although don't really know of them that well. That being said I am neutral since you may have the experience from being the host/ex-host/admin whatever, but I also think that your tone may be taken in the wrong way, granted not saying that you always talk like that, but the problem with the internet is that people can't hear your tone of voice. That being said I am glad to hear you are getting your life together mate, don't know you from the past, but I would just say if you are accepted that we may need to just make sure that the players don't take your pm's the wrong way or such just due to the fact that you admit it yourself that some staff may know you for being a bit hard to work with. However that is why we have trial mods to start I suppose, but I will say neutral for now until I get to know you more.

[Westhybrid]

I've played a handful of rounds with you so far. While you're not exactly my favorite marine to work with, I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. My forum activity isn't exactly a shining beacon of example either, so I can't -1 you on that. I'm gonna remain neutral for now and wait 'til I see you in more rounds. From what I experienced, you seem very well versed in Colonial Marines as a server and a game, but your roleplaying was erratic and you were quick to start conflict with marines when there wasn't a need for it. That's not a reason to deny your app however, that's just my firsthand experience playing with your character. Looking forward to playing more rounds with you, and hopefully I'll change my vote.

Goin' Neutral.

[Lostmixup]

I've seen you on often. The answers are alright, a little bit vauge though. Fourm activity is low. A trial run will probably be alright.

[SASoperative]

I am going to remain neutral because I know you semi personally and I might have biased opinion.

[apophis775]

We actually don't permit people to be staff on multiple servers. It can create a conflict of interest.

Also, when we last spoke, you were quite insistent that you did "pretty much everything" on the other server, and the host was just hosting the box.

[apophis775]

Denied and Locked. Like I said, we can't have staff who are on multiple servers as staff.
