Common Staff Situations:
Write a description of what you would do in each of the following situations. Do not write on the same line as the situation - use the space below it or make space as needed. Failure to do this proves your inability to follow instructions and your application will be automatically denied.

1. A player randomly shoots someone at round start and MPs have detained him.
Do a quick investigation to find out the reason for shooting. If misfire, let the MPs have fun and leave it as an IC issue. In case that it's grief, aheal the victim and then proceed to bwoink the player asking for an explanation and warn him or ban depending on the situation.

2. The ship has a breach to space and a bunch of players have died or are dying as a result.
Repair the hull, fix the atmosphere and aheal whoever died due to the breach. After this I'll proceed to investigate the cause of the breach, if it has no player involvement, do nothing. If it has player involvement, track who did it, check note history and ban accordingly if intentional, warn if not intentional.

3. You see a player walking around the ship naked and clearly lost.
Ask for a mentor to assist the player. if no mentors are online I'll bwoink the quickstart marine guide or coach the player assuming that I'm not busy.

4. A player is being very rude to you in Adminhelps and requesting to speak to an Admin+ staff member.
Tell the player that being rude will result in nothing but a warning for him and that he can talk to me because I'm fully capable of attending to his issue and that if he felt wronged to just write a staff report about it. Apply a note about his bad behaviour. If he keeps being a jerk to me I would ban him for 3 hours.
Of course, I'll be respectful and professional, so I can look good in the forums after being reported.

5. You notice a player with a name that doesn't fit our naming rules. The player is arguing that: They've used the name for several years, no one has told them to change it before, and that they didn't know it was a rule.
Explain to the the player that his name is violating the naming rules, if no staff told him to change it it's because nobody noticed it before. I'll then check his notes, if someone already told him to change the name, punish accordingly, otherwise just tell him to change it and apply a note.

6. You see a Maintenance Tech running around in armor and carrying a rifle. The security level is green with no threat present.
IC issue. However I will keep an eye on him since this is a suspicious action from a OOC perspective.

7. You see a Squad Medic performing surgery on the planet. He claims it was because there were no doctors in the FOB.
I'll answer considering that this is possible.
Tell the medic that performing surgery as any role but Doctor or Researcher is considered powergaming and that it isn't obligatory for a doctor to stay at the FoB, if surgery is necessary evacuate the patient to the Almayer. Instruct him to finish the surgery and apply a warning for powergaming, job ban if there's already a recent note.

8. The round is stagnating. There are 30 marines and 4 aliens. The marines won't leave the ship, and the aliens won't attack. What would you do, to "encourage" the sides to engage each other?
Message the stronger team (Subtle-message to acting commander or Queen Mother announcement) to attack and die gloriously. Preferably a queen mother announcement, as all xenos will know that it's time to end the round.

9. The round ends, a MARINE starts shooting a hostile CLF member and the CLF member Adminhelps complaining he was killed after the round ended.
I'd tell the CLF that EORG only applies to friendly players and as such, there is no problems in killing hostiles after the round has ended.

10. A marine is running around disarming, punching and stealing gear at round start.
PM the marine and apply a warning. If there's a previous note about trolling, apply a ban according to the situation.

11. A marine has killed another marine. When you ask him why, he said it was because the other marine had punched him.
Confirm the situation through logs. PM the marine telling him that proper escalation must be followed when engaging in a fight with another marine and explain what it is. Revive the victim and punish the marine with a warn / note or ban according to the player's note history.

12. An issue arises that requires Admin+ abilities.
Contact an Admin+ about this issue. If there is no higher-ups online, use discord skype morse code slack.

13. There are minor racist comments going on IC. 9 of the 10 people are laughing and RPing but one player gets offended and Adminhelps about it.
Tell the offended player that these kind of offensive commentaries are accepted in-character and that he can deal with the situation through IC actions, such as telling them to stop.

14. A marine opens fire at round start in briefing killing multiple marines and instantly logs off.
Asleep the marine, in case he comes back, proceed to then aheal all victims and ban the griefer for 7 days. If there is previous notes about griefing, fill up an perma request.

15. You see a player playing a xeno larva/chestburster run towards the frontlines and die.
Explain to the player that larvae are a valuable resource for the xeno team thus they shouldn't kill themselves for nothing. Apply a warning / note, job ban is there is previous notes about the same behaviour.

16. You see a xeno memeing, saying AYYLMAO, REEEEEE etc in hivemind chat.
PM the xeno and notify him that we are a medium roleplay server therefore such memes aren't allowed. Apply a note.

17. A xeno player calls the shuttle a "dropship". A different xeno player complains to you that it's metagaming/failRP to call it a "dropship".
I'll explain to the complainer that the xeno hivemind is a translation of the xeno thoughts to english, so it's fine.

18. A Command staff player at briefing near round-start mentions there are aliens on the planet.
Ask the player how his character knows this information. With this I'll be able to determine if it is metagame or not, apply a note for metagame if necessary.

19. A Marine kills another Marine on the EVAC Pod to take the last spot and claims it was RP as he was saving himself.
Investigate the situation, if there was proper roleplay or escalation, leave it as an IC situation and notify both parties of the decision taken. However, if there is a lack of RP or no escalation in his action, check notes and punish accordingly.

20. You see a fellow staff member give wrong information in an Adminhelp or incorrectly enforcing a rule.
Notify the staff member behind the scenes, through msay or PM, about his mistake.

20a. You see a fellow staff member abusing his powers in-game.
Gather evidence then contact his respective manager through slack.

21. You see a player talking in OOC chat about what he did with your mom last night.
OK

Any additional information you'd like to add?
Extremely outdated form, update it!

unfortunately, HueHue Bibiex over here was a decent player and a good moderator so I can't just say -1 Brazilian.

the answers are good, they already know what they're doing as far as I'm concerned

[RobBrown4PM]

Pretty good answers, more or less nothing wrong with them.

Here's a scenario for you:

The Commander begins ranting and raving over coms and stirring the pot with the Marines that the CL is an antag, or is generally up to no good. Over the course of the round the Commander finally calls for a lynching of the CL, A small group of Marines go out of their way and do as such. Multiple Ahelps are placed by the CO and CL blaming each other. What do you do?

[ThesoldierLLJK]

If they're former staff they're former staff and all the answers are fine, I don't know you much, but as long as you left on good terms, I don't see why you should have to jump through extra hoops to get back on.

[awan]

Because I grill everyone who makes an app ill get you some questions as well.

Please tell me/us what you would do in the following situations.

1. You get an ahelp from a doctor saying someone has hidden all the surgery tools.
2. You disagree with a call the cmp made on marine law, you are in the round in the same squad as the arrested person and most of the squad disagrees but no one ahelped or faxed about it.
3. The RO has denied attachments, tensions are high and a player ahelps he has 5 people to mutiny with.

[Omicega]

Was a great mod before and I have no doubts he'll be just as good second time round.

Thanks for the -1, appreciate it.

I'd be surprised if this happens because Commanders have to go through a whitelist thus they hold a higher standard of roleplaying, this is an easy way to lose a whitelist.
Anyway, ask the Commander what the CL did wrong and why he ordered the lynching of the CL. While I wait for an answer I'll ask the CL what happened between them and if the commander did something wrong besides ordering for a lynch.
After receiving an answer from both sides, investigate the situation to confirm their statements (Logs, witnesses and so on). Based on the information I have acquired, I will be able to determine who should receive a punishment.
Certainly the Commander will be punished for at least ordering a lynch, from a warning to a ban, depending on the situation and note history, which probably will contribute a lot in a whitelist removal.
The CL may or may not be punished, depending on the results of my investigation.
If necessary aheal the CL and tell the marines who lynched the CL that they shouldn't follow an order that is against the server rules, apply a note.

If they're former staff they're former staff and all the answers are fine, I don't know you much, but as long as you left on good terms, I don't see why you should have to jump through extra hoops to get back on.

Thanks for the plus on- MORE QUESTIONS?
1- Aghost if not in ghost form, track the surgical tools using the release-obj command and check the variables. Bwoink the last player to touch the surgical tool asking for an explanation, apply a warning or job ban if repeat offender.
2- I wouldn't interfere unless it's something extravagant. If I feel it's necessary to do something I'd prefer to PM the arrested marine and tell him that there is no problem in sending an ahelp if he felt wronged.
3- Bwoink the RO and tell him that he shouldn't deny attachments for everyone, apply a note. Deny the mutiny and tell them that it's being handled.

yes.

[awan]

+1 I would have done something else in situation 2. I might have asked another staff member to look into it. 3. I would have started by replying to the original ahelp that the aCO can overrule the RO to not have to directly ooc tell a player not to do something. But that is my opinion. still +1

[Kavlo]

Good staff when they were still part of the team.

[Imperator_Titan]

Accepted. Bibiex is ex-staff and was quite good at their work when they were on the team from personal experience.
