Colonial Marines Character: Mostly xeno, but Daniel Sullivan or Robert Wilson

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Timezone: EDT

On average, how many hours are you available per week to moderate?
I usually play 2-3 games, maybe more so around 1-2 hours a day during the week and 5-6 on the weekend for a grand total of
around 20-25 hours a week.

Do you have any previous experience in being staff (not just SS13)?
Nothing major but I was an event coordinator on a Gmod combine control server.

Did you play any of the previous Colonial Marine servers?
No.

What are the 3 biggest servers you play on besides CM?
I only really play CM. I try to get into the other servers but CM is the only one that keeps me.

Provide links to any previous Colonial Marines applications that you've made:
viewtopic.php?f=127&t=16668&p=188154#p188154 - Pred app, pulled it because I went full retard

Are you currently a staff member elsewhere (not just SS13)? If so, where?
Nope.

Have you ever been banned for more than 24 hours on Colonial Marines?
From my memory, I've only been banned for 24 hours because I went SSD as a queen.

Have you ever been banned for more than 24 hours on ANY server? If so, which server, when, and what for?
Nope.

Are you familiar with the chat program Slack (its use is required)?
No, but I'm willing to learn it.

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.
First, I'd pull the logs of the incident and check who was targeted and if it was a misfire or malicious. Then I'd check notes of the player to see if he has had a history of this before. If it was indeed a misfire and very little history of this behavior, I'd warn them/issue a note and let the MPs deal with it. If it was malicious and the player has a history of being a shitter, I'd issue a 3 hour ban.


2. The ship has a breach to space and a bunch of players have died or are dying as a result.

The only way to breach the ship currently is through predator wristband explosion, which is an IC issue. Other than that, I believe these aren't possible.


3. You see a player walking around the ship naked and clearly lost.
Refer them to a mentor if one is on. If one is not on, then I'd message them with a welcome and a link to the starter guide.


4. A player is being very rude to you in Adminhelps and requesting to speak to an Admin+ staff member.
Players are not entitled to speak to whoever they want. I'd warn the player to stop being rude and that he has to deal with me.


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.
Check the notes to see if they are lying. If not, warn them to change the name to something else next round and note the incident.


6. You see a Maintenance Tech running around in armor and carrying a rifle. The security level is green with no threat present.
This is an IC issue. Let the MPs deal with it.


7. You see a Squad Medic performing surgery on the planet. He claims it was because there were no doctors in the FOB.
Not possible due to current mechanics.


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?
Send an High Command/Queen Mother announcement urging the sides to wrap it up.


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 player that hostiles are stilled considered hostile when the round ends.

10. A marine is running around disarming, punching and stealing gear at round start.
Since there is a need to cut down on round start shittery, I'd check the players notes first to see if they have a history of this. If they do, I'd apply a 3 hour ban or day ban depending on the notes. If there are no notes, I'd let them off with a warning and note it.

11. A marine has killed another marine. When you ask him why, he said it was because the other marine had punched him.
A case of improper escalation. Inform the player of their rule break, warn them about it and note it. If they have a history of it, apply a ban depending on the history. I'd then aheal the other marine.


12. An issue arises that requires Admin+ abilities.
I'm guessing this is where slack comes into play. If so, I'd use that to inform any Admins of the issue.


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.

Racism is fine IC as long is it isn't done in a overbearing way. I'd tell the offended player that this is allowed in an IC nature and that it's fine as long as it doesn't get out of control.


14. A marine opens fire at round start in briefing killing multiple marines and instantly logs off.
Check the notes of the player to see if he has a history. If not, apply a day ban and note it. If he does have history, apply a 7 dan ban.


15. You see a player playing a xeno larva/chestburster run towards the frontlines and die.
First of, as always, check the notes of the player to see history of this behavior. If he does, apply a job ban to xeno. If he does not, warn them that the next time they make an infringement like this, a ban would follow. Note it afterwards.

16. You see a xeno memeing, saying AYYLMAO, REEEEEE etc in hivemind chat.

Tell the player to cease their low rp shittery. Apply a note and warn if there's no history. If there's history, issue a 3 hour ban depending on the notes.


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".
Tell the complaining player that the hivemind is an interpretation of what the xenos perceive, so it's okay to call things their proper name as long as they don't meta the exact function. (APCs and such)


18. A Command staff player at briefing near round-start mentions there are aliens on the planet.
Tell the command staff player that they don't know anything at all about the alien infestation and warn him for meta followed by a note. If he has a history of this, apply a job ban to command roles.


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.
Check the logs to see how it was RPed out. If it was RPed out properly, it's an IC issue. If it was done is a shitty way, IE walking up and just shooting the player, warn them with a note.


20. You see a fellow staff member give wrong information in an Adminhelp or incorrectly enforcing a rule.
Notify the fellow staff member of his misinformation.

20a. You see a fellow staff member abusing his powers in-game.
Notify the staff members head of the power abuse.


21. You see a player talking in OOC chat about what he did with your mom last night.
Not if I tell him what I did with his mom first!

Any additional information you'd like to add?
I know I haven't been very active at all on the forums, but I always come back to CM. Sometimes I need a break, especially since school started and I recently had some personal stuff happen, which causes me to detach from CM. However, I noticed the need for moderators and I thought that I'd have played long enough to have a firm grasp on the CM rules.
I play Daniel Sullivan.

Thank you for applying.

All your answers are good, so I just want to ask you some extra ones to get those synapses in your brain firing.

1. Why do you want to become a moderator?

2. A player ahelps that he was killed by friendly fire. You investigate and determine that the other player was trying to kill a xeno and the other player stepped in front of a AP round burst and got decapped. The player who made the report says it’s not fair his round was ended and demands another chance. How would you handle this?

3. A player starts a fight with another player and it escalated directly to the other player throwing multiple knives at the player. Both parties are then detained by the MPs for fighting and other various crimes. The player who was knived made an ahelp and you determine the other player improperly escalated and issued a warning note. The one who ahelped it demands the other player be banned and you tell the MPs to release him. What would you do?

4. You see a doctor who is loading IVs with hyperzine and as he is treating wounded he is injecting them with space drugs and mindbreaker. No one has ahelped this, what would you do?

1. Moderating, to me, is about ensuring an experience can be delivered without collapse. CM, from what I can gather, has been around for years. It's all thanks to members who volunteer their time for the sake of the player and the longevity of the server. That's why I'd like to be a moderator; to help the longevity of CM.

2. Because the player stepped in front of the other player who was in mid-burst, it is entirely that players fault for getting decapped. I'd PM the player telling them that they should be more mindful of their surroundings, and try not to step in front of marines actively shooting.

3. The player has no right to demand bans over other players. Since I've already investigated and decided the best course of action was a warning ( assuming they have no history of this ), I'd tell the player that the offender was handled according to the severity of the crime, and no ban is necessary.

4. Well, since the doctor is injecting marines with contraband drugs and assuming they haven't ODed anyone, it is an IC issue that can be resolved by the MPs and CMO.

Answers are fine, anything wrong can be fixed during the trial period but I still have a few situations for you.

1. A marine pulls his gun, shoots two marines and then gets shot down. When you check his VV you see that he was punched by 3 people 12 times, shot them and then got shot, what do you do?

2. A player ahelps that the CL force fed injured marines ultrazine, how do you proceed?

1. Well, in any case, no one should shoot anyone because of a few punches. However, that does not excuse the other marines for punching him. I believe this would be another case of improper escalation and stupidity on both sides. First, I'd PM the player who shot the two marines asking him why he thought it reasonable to start firing on marines because of a fist fight. Then I'd tell him next time to grab the MPs, and note the incident.

2. I'd tell the player who ahelped to tell the MPs about it, because this falls under the marine law and is an IC issue.

While not really my place to comment, I'm going to.

I agree completely with this however, Ultrazine is highly addictive and if they don't get more they can become seriously ill/injured with no cure possible excluding continual intake of Ultrazine so that should be taken into account, it is similar to forcing someone to take space drugs and hallucinating, disorientation and other detriments from drugs like this are grief, I do not know if forced ultrazine counts but it might be worth thinking about.

Answers aren't spectacular so I'll go over them below.

1. This is generally an IC issue, as a mod you have to take into account who got punished and how ICly. The marine who opened fire first was gunned down in response, ending his round which is fair IC punishment.

2. This can more or less be grief as once you get addicted to ultrazine there's no going back and when you withdraw from it, its pretty bad.

So I think based on your answers you can be molded with a trial.

Just an FYI but a doctor injecting people with space drugs and other bad chems is not IC but griefing if they don’t have a proper roleplay reason ever.

Allow me to join the hype train and +1 this. Application is decently done, and I have no problems with having you apart of the team. Any issues that I may have, or anyone else for that matter can, and assuming this is accepted will be fixed during your Trial period. That, and I liked your responses to our interrogation, so all that’s left to do is give ya the +1. Use it wisely.

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.
Check the notes to see if they are lying. If not, warn them to change the name to something else next round and note the incident.
The player may have had a staff member ok their name in the past, however, that doesen't mean he doesen't have to change his name. If he is requested to do so, he has to. He is free to appeal it on the forums.
14. A marine opens fire at round start in briefing killing multiple marines and instantly logs off.
Check the notes of the player to see if he has a history. If not, apply a day ban and note it. If he does have history, apply a 7 dan ban.
If he has a history of it, place a 7 day ban and file for a perma ban request.
18. A Command staff player at briefing near round-start mentions there are aliens on the planet.
Tell the command staff player that they don't know anything at all about the alien infestation and warn him for meta followed by a note. If he has a history of this, apply a job ban to command roles.
I don't think you'll find to many players breaking this repeatedly. Good answer though.
20. You see a fellow staff member give wrong information in an Adminhelp or incorrectly enforcing a rule.
Notify the fellow staff member of his misinformation.


If they give incorrect information you can give them the right info. If they incorrectly enforce a rule, let your immediate supervisor know and throw it up the chain of command.
21. You see a player talking in OOC chat about what he did with your mom last night.
Not if I tell him what I did with his mom first!
You're likely joking (Atleast I hope you are), if not, brush it off and get on with things unless it persists. Every you go on the net someone is going to rustle your jimmies.



Overall, a decept app. I'll +1 this.

You have the right attitude for the position, and I see no problems having you apart of the team. Any and all issues that may arise I can assure you can be cleaned up during your trial, so all that’s left is this new and improved +1! How is it different? I mean, it never expires, so that's a plus. *badum tiss*
