Your DiscordID
Portaleffect

Have you managed servers previously? Yes

Which servers have you previously managed?
Intox Jailbreak

On what servers do you usually play on, and which servers would you like to moderate?
Jailbreak and/or other servers if help is needed

Why would you like to become a moderator?
I believe I’m able to distinguish and enact fair and reasonable judgment and punishments on an individual case by case basis

I think jailbreak in particular has a problem with lack of present moderation at current times.

TF2 jailbreak is something I’ve played ever since I began in 2012 so I have a very solid grasp on the entire gamemode and general rules (though I know they differ from server to server)

I managed to secure a moderator spot in a jailbreak server (2013-2016ish) when Intox was a larger company than it is today so I have knowledge on how to moderate as well as a broad understanding of the source engine

Ps
(I also manage IRL at my job so I think I know how to deal with most people)

PsPs
(Blackwonder is the best bc we get unlocked bhop 🥰)

Do you know or have spoken to any of the current staff members? Yes

Please let us know the names of staff members you know or have spoken to
That’s a long list. I think I’ve spoken to and made known my presence to every moderator (on jailbreak) and some admins. To list a few I’ve spoken most to:

Honey
Mehf
Ducklurch
Deitific Presence

How often do you play TF2?
Almost daily after work

Please give us your ideal way of punishing players, specific to the servers you want to moderate
1st: Check what the current ONGOING problem is (does immediate action need taken? Racial slurs, Micspam, etc.)
2nd: Check past chat/warns/bans. Has this player offended previously, what was it, what action was already taken.
3rd: Appropriate actions taken based off conclusive evidence

I believe it’s important to hear our players a lot of the time.
Some people have a bad day and say things they don’t mean etc. If you rule with an iron fist, players are unlikely to want to return to BLW. So I believe chances should be given in a lot of cases

Is there any other information you would like us to know about?
I’m a spy main sorry

Are you proficient in languages other than English? Yes

Are you proficient in languages other than English? Gangsta

I’m no longer affiliated with intox in any way. I don’t even know if they have tf2 servers anymore. I am on their discord and inactive though. I join a lot of discords and don’t really do much

PortalEffect(s) was my name on intox during the period I played. some other aliases included
- - - (Triple dash)
TheWarden (I no longer have access to this account)

Jailbreak #2 in particular was the specific server.

your response doesn't really indicate that you know which punishments are applied for which rules, which is what we're looking for. your method for acting is fine but we need you to elaborate

Just some extra details

Playtime is fine and sessions are growing more active

Actually totally forgot about that FF ban a few days ago. Meat grinder incident that believed to be legal FF

Donor teamban was actually a vote system abuse as well (donor ended the round shortly after calling vote to use a “majority win” vote exploit. That’s neither here nor there imho now.)

Honey and mehf were both staff at some point I always thought. Probably close to a year ago now?

As far as punishments go, for examples.

- if a player is spewing racist/hate speech.
(Instant mute 60 min for first offender)
(No tolerance after first offense. Perm mute. Would need appeal.)
(Some cases are more extreme than others in this specific area. Some I would perm mute instantly if it gets out of hand)

- if a player is MFK
(2 hour Teamban for first offense)
(1 day after second offense)
(Perm teamban for third offense)

- if a player is vote dodging/Alting
( ban. Needs appeal)

- if a player is caught posting phishing links
(Perm mute. No tolerance)


-if a player is caught with an inappropriate sign/spray

(Revoke privilege. Needs appeal and shown that it has been changed)

-if a Blu is purposely baiting/trolling reds
(1st offense Warn)
(2nd offense Slay)
(3rd offense 3 hour teamban)
(4 or more offenses would need specific punishments imo. Does he/she know the rules? Are they doing this repeatedly knowingly or unknowingly?)

Hope that clears up some of it. Any others in particular I can address.

You've solidly cemented yourself as someone I have to watch, not someone who should be watching over others. Considering the last time you had donor we had to revoke it due to you going on a votekicking spree with Heckter, I'm not exactly supportive of you asking for even better perms now.
