InsertCleverNameHere-- Staff Application

Post by InsertCleverNameHere » 21 Jun 2015, 18:32

Byond ID:InsertCleverNameHere

Age:16

Gender: Male

Timezone: EST

On average, how many hours are you available per week to moderate? As much as you need me.

Do you have any previous experience in being staff (not just SS13)? Yup, several SS13 servers (N-E, Johhnys Sever, And I'm currently a dev here :P.)

Did you play any of the previous Colonial Marine servers? Just a little.

Have you had an application to Colonial Marines or New Eden denied before? Nope

Are you currently a staff member elsewhere (not just SS13)? If so, where? Well....Technically here, although I feel my skills would be better suited as a Mod then a spriter as I'm not all that good and there are many people better suited (Aka abby) I can still sprite when needed. But I'd be much more usefull as a Mod.

Have you ever been banned for more than 24 hours on Colonial Marines? I believe so.

If a player was shooting everyone in briefing at round start how would you deal with the situation? First I would teleport the player away then freeze him, I would heal anyone who was injured then begin to question it. Although this looks easily classifiable as grief. After the questioning (Which would must likely end in him DCing quickly considering it is blatant grief) but I would explain to him how that can easily fuck over rounds point him to the rules where it specifically states this is against the rules and let him know it is a bannable offense. If he were to stay on for the questioning and was polite and realized what he did was dickish the time would be much more reduced. I would also update his notes when it was all said and done as I know how important that is.

You notice that a xeno is breaching the Nostromo and is unable to seal it with resin. How would you deal with this and what punishment would you give for a first offender? I would quickly PM the player sending him a link to the rules and explaining what he had down wrong. Assuming he isn't a massive cunt about it understands what he did wrong and agrees it won't happen again I would seal the patch fix the Atmos in the area and update his notes. He was one of those "FUCK CM AND SCREW THE RULES" I'd fix the breach and give him a standard 24 hour ban for such a siutation after updating his notes.

The marines want the nuke codes to detonate the Nostromo because they claim they are losing too many marines. There are currently 4 aliens and 20 marines in your /who. What do you do? Do the whole IC "Bioscan" that is often done then inform the marines "We can't afford to lose the station over four random heat sigs, get out there and pony up boys!"

A Sulaco Medic 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. What do you do? First I would question the marine as to why he tossed a Grenade into LO. But many things would vary. Like if anyone got killed, if he had thrown anymore and what not. Depending on all these things and his general attitude his ban length would vary and finally I'd update his notes. Then I would move on to the Medical doctor and ask him why he was handing grenades out, and assuming he didn't give them to a single dude just so he could toss it into the LO office, I'd update his notes and warn him on making grenades. (Although this situation seems outdated as if I am correct grenades no longer work since all the Igniters on the Sulaco were removed, however don't quote me on this."

What would you do if a player started to talk about the things he did to your mom last night? Don't really get OOC offended too often. I'd be like "Oh yeah! You were in my mum for one night! Well guess what mate! I spent a whole 9 months in that bitch!" If he were to just share a laugh with me I wouldn't do anything further. But he continued to spam me with insults after warning him several times, I'd update his notes and ban him informing him that such disrespect is not approved of on CM.

Any additional information you'd like to add? I'm going to be gone this week (Starting in half an hour) So i won't be on the server but I can keep up with this thread via my phone!

I thought, you wanted to be a spriter, and not be on staff?

You clearly said that here:

-1 from me, Your ALREADY a spriters, And from what I can tell for you applying to this I just imagine you in the future thinking your both a dev and a moderator, You can not be both... It just does not work out in the code of conduct.

I do not wish to continue on the dev team and be a mod. I'd rather swap to the mod side of things. As I feel I'd be better suited there. Also in that thread was because I was new to the sever and just wanted to sprite. But now ever witnesses the lack of mods on my time zone and the much better devs I'd like to swap over. (I apologize for any typos as I'm on my phone with tiny ass buttons)

I've never really had an interaction with you, but I have read your logs. Here's what I found:

You sometimes metagame:
[15:20:22]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : Someone pry it
[15:20:52]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : To engineering
[15:20:57]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : Thats where we last saw their leader [You shouldn't know the Queen is an alien leader]
And you sometimes don't:
[14:22:44]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : His lung is broken
[14:22:46]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : I don't know surgery
[14:22:50]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : We need to get him onto the Sulaco
But you also get worked up easily:
[14:26:48]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : YOU ALREADY ARE RETARDED
[14:26:59]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : YOU HAVE NO LUNGS
[14:27:01]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : YOU FUCK
[14:27:10]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : BECAUSE YOU HAVE AUTISITIM
[14:27:13]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : WE CAN FIX THAT
[14:27:19]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : JUST GET BACK IN THE OTHER BAG
[14:27:31]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : YOU ARE RETARDED
[14:28:15]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : CALM DOWN
[14:28:18]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : WE ARE GETTING YOU HEALED
[14:28:20]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : YOU DUMB FUCK
[14:28:32]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : MEDIC
You did stand up against racism:
[04:12:36]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : ANTHONY
[04:12:41]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : WATCH THE FUCKIN RACISIM!
And you do communicate A LOT. And you can also RP properly:
[21:09:58]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : I'm not your mother
[21:10:01]SAY: insertclevernamehere/Insert Clever Name Here : I'm your sister
You play in the afternoon, when we sometimes don't have admins/mods online.
You seem pretty intense about CM. I don't know whether that is a good or bad thing, but I'm giving you a +1.

If you would permaban a player, you owe it to him to look into his logs and hear his side of the story. And if you cannot bear to do that, then perhaps the player does not deserve to be banned.

I'm not sure. It leaves a bit of a sour taste in my mouth, that you applied first as a spriter, specifically stating you didn't want mod. Also, you did get a referral from someone, but they referred you for your sprite work, not as a moderator, with him citing your personality as a reason for you to not be a mod.

Me and Dave didn't really get along. If he were to apply here I'd have said the same thing about him. Good coder not a fan of his personality.

See, My concern is that you literally got the spriter job 5 days ago and your ALREADY applying for a moderator position, That shows that you might try to pinball around and thats where my concern comes in at. Not to mention what Apop has said so far regarding that you were suggested as a spriter not a moderator.

-1

Poor spelling and grammar
Poor attitude (as shown by screenshots)
The "I don't want Mod access" switcharoo is not very confidence-inducing
Broke our rules with the custom "Pro Terrorist" IDs
Overall immaturity

I'm cool with you being a Spriter for us if you'd like to help out, but I honestly don't believe you're Mod material.

This is.... insanely common actually, devs who suddenly don't want to be devs and try to switch over. If you had gone for mod in the first place and didn't make any sort of statement about wanting to be a device not mod I probably would've supported you. However, a few things are important when you're staff and I'd say trust is high on that list I don't understand your intentions and I've just witnessed you break your word in under 5 days.

-1 from me, I don't think anything good would come from this.

Mm, -1 from me. Like mentioned, it seems a great waste to apply and become a spriter just to go for mod sometime later. If i were you i'd just stay spriter, tbh.

Thats a fair point... It'd be nice to see him follow up on some of his previous obligations as a + to this app.

And the topic stays open as the imput is not yet done. I will give it some time and when I see the comments stopping I will move this. Or Apop can move it when he sees fit

Well, as a closing thought on this app, I think that he is definitely capable of performing moderator duties, but changing his mind from spriter, specifying that he didn't want to be mod, and then changing his mind is what killed his chances here. As a personal recommendation to the player: don't get discouraged. If you perform some spriting duties, do a good job, and remain active and helpful, I see a very good chance of your next application getting approved.
