Have you managed servers previously? No

On what servers do you usually play on and which one would you like to moderate?
► BlackWonder US | Trade Minecraft ◄ and ►BlackWonder US | Minecraft World ◄

Why would you like to become a moderator?
Well i've played Tf2 for a long time, longer than my account has been around and it's always bugged me when i see those annoying mic-spammers or people with aim-bots and I would like to make a change. the people on the servers i want to moderate/play always get irritated when there's a rule-breaker and same with me, and since i play there regularly and not only when somebody calls to complain about a hacker i think i'd fit the bill to be moderator.

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

Please let us know the names of staff members you have spoken to or know
I'm friends with Ash Shaw and steam and I talk to him regularly, as well as i have done a game night with Ash and Chig Bungus before and have met Chig Bungus on Tf2 sometimes.

How often do you play TF2?
Almost every day.

Please give us your ideal way of punishing players, specific to the server you want to moderate
This Applies to both servers i wish to moderate as they are both the same thing:

AFK for too long: Kick

Mic Spam: Warning > 30 Minute mute > 1 hour mute > 6 hour mute > 12 hour mute > 1 day mute > 3 day mute > 1 week mute > 1 month mute > Perma-Mute

Chat Spam: Warning > 30 minute gag > 1 hour gag > 6 hour gag > 12 hour gag > 1 day gag > 3 day gag > 1 week gag > 1 month gag > Perma-gag

Innapropriate Objector or Spray: Spray ban until proven to have non-nsfw spray. If done again will be spray banned permanently.

Hacking: Record of proof + Perma-ban

Hack Advertisements: Permanent gag.

Exploiting: Warning with Slay > Kick > 1 day ban > 3 day ban > 1 week ban > 1 month ban > Perma-ban

Abuse of Call Admin: Warning > 30 minute ban > 1 hour ban > 6 hour ban > 12 hour ban > 1 day ban > 1 month ban > Perma-ban

Mod Impersonation :Warning > Kick > 1 hour ban > 6 hour ban > 12 hour ban > 1 day ban > 1 month ban > Perma-ban

Revealing and undercover mod: 30 min mute > 1 hour mute > 3 hour mute > 12 hour mute > 1 day mute > 1 week mute > 1 month mute > Perma-Mute

Spawncamping: Warning > Kick > 30 minute ban > 1 hour ban > 6 hour ban > 12 hour ban > 1 day ban > 1 month ban > Perma-ban

Is there any other information you would like us to know about?
Not that I can think of.

Are you proficient in languages other than English? No

Hiya Florbo, happy to see you're applying for moderator. I'm going to take a look at your application.

First of all you do have the required amount which is perfect!
1613686004365.png


Your recent chatlog history are relatively clean, I do recommend using "/" before basic server commands in the future such as "/rtd" as it doesn't spam the tfstats logs, but that's insignificant.


Moving onto your Punishment lists~

AFK for too long: Kick
This typically isn't applicable for trade servers unless the server is full. In which case it's obviously fine to do so.
30 Minute mute
We rarely ever ban anyone for just 30 minutes, typically starts at an hour.

On what servers do you usually play on and which one would you like to moderate?
► BlackWonder US | Trade Minecraft ◄ and ►BlackWonder US | Minecraft World ◄
Seeing how you want to moderate predominately trade related servers, what would be an appropriate punishment to someone caught Sharking/Scamming?

Mic Spam: Warning > 30 Minute mute > 1 hour mute > 6 hour mute > 12 hour mute > 1 day mute > 3 day mute > 1 week mute > 1 month mute > Perma-Mute

Chat Spam: Warning > 30 minute gag > 1 hour gag > 6 hour gag > 12 hour gag > 1 day gag > 3 day gag > 1 week gag > 1 month gag > Perma-gag
Would you punish someone being Racist/Xenophobia differently?

Lastly, how would you handle someone evading punishments?

Just some last side notes,
1. I'd love to see you be more engaged on our forums.
2. I noticed you've picked up a soundboard lately and I sternly recommend either not using it on our servers, or keep it minimal.
3. Wish you the best of luck on your application, it all around looks pretty good to me but needs some additions (Feel free to add them here, don't make a new application!)

Well hiya Ash! here's my response to your questions.

As for the 30 minute mute part you quoted, not exactly sure what you were talking about there since you said ban and not mute, and i assume that comes from the mic-spam section.

As for Sharking/Scamming my punishment would most likely be: Warning+Gag for 30 min. > 1 Hour ban > 6 hour ban > 1 day ban > 1 week ban > 1 month ban > Permanent ban. though to be honest i'm not quite sure what your policy is on the severity of punishment when it comes to scamming.

And when it comes to racism, i'd probably just the minute i see it mute/gag them for 30 minutes and tell them what they did wrong. and if they try again i'd continue the punishment chain quoted. obviously, if they never stop i might ban them because i just find racism intolerable.

Thank you, and have a good day!

Hiya Florbo, let's go over your application.

This is a perma ban for first offense, why bother going through the same process over a period of time when you can avoid the issue in the first place. This should be treated the same way as hacking.

In regards to outside of your application, I have noticed that you are active in our discord, not only through general chat but also in #requesthelp, which is always good to see that you're involved in the community.

Other than that, I have one question in regards to your punishment ladder. What would you do in the case that somebody is sending random trades on our server?

As what Ash had previously stated, I believe that you should also become a bit more active on our forums, as your only posts are this application and a mute appeal. Best of luck on your application and stay safe!

Hey Chig, as for the part over sharking and scamming thank you for a response to that, i wasn't quite sure on your severity of punishment on scammers.

along with that, for sending random trades i'd probably do: Warning > Kick > Ban for 1 hour > Ban for 3 hours > ban for 6 hours > ban for 12 hours > ban for 1 day > ban for 3 days > ban for 1 week > ban for 1 month > Perma-ban.

And of course, i'll try to get more active on forums, thanks and have a good day!

For the mic spam, i'm sorry i got carried away. as for why you consider the donor vote questionable i'm not sure.

I was on the server for about 15 minutes earlier and @Alex.bsp joined before me. Aside from about 3 collective seconds, the player didn't speak before or after you called a vote on him. Even after sort of cringy "gotcha" attitude when you called the vote.

I'm not sure how long it was ago before that point but he had been doing it earlier than when i called the vote there, if you check on discord #requesthelp i had previously asked if i should but by the time i came back from asking if i should vote-mute he had stopped. i assumed it would qualify as continuation of the mic-spam but if not i apologize for the mis-use of my judgement on the situation, and apologize if this affects my moderator application. for now, this will be the only response i can make for now as it's late where i am.

I have had to repeatedly correct him about simple rules such as spawncamping on trade maps. He also argues loudly with other players over mic.
