Application Questions
Why do you want to become an admin?
I hate a lot of things. As a donor, I always try take on the responsibility of a server when no admins are around. There are times when some of my friends would ask me if I could get on their server to either: Go warden for a bit or (and this is the one I'm asked for the most about) deal with troublemakers. I hate going on a server when the first thing I hear is loud music or sounds, squeakers, etc. and then I see that blue team is full with people with no mics or free killers that have no idea what they are doing on blue team. I hate when I have to repeat myself or tell someone who is breaking rules to read the rules and they ignore me. Even after threatening to call an admin or slay/mute/gag/kick them. I try to enforce the rules every single time I'm on, and I feel like as an admin I can enforce them better and easier. I know how to report and record demos of people breaking rules . I'm also mature enough to make hard decisions and calls. I might not be the most charismatic guy in the world (much less the server) but I take things like breaking rules seriously. I have lots of vote mutes/gags/kicks under my belt, and I'm not afraid to do something when I know someone is doing something wrong. I ask lots of questions when I'm unsure of a rule. People say I have commanding voice.
As an early 2012 TF2 player, I've been to many servers and seen many things. I have been involved in many communities and servers before, and for some reason I just fell in love with BlackWonder. The community is AWESOME, the servers are AWESOME, and the admins + owner(s) are AWESOME. I don't want to become an admin for fame or power, the sole reason I want to become an admin is because I want to help BlackWonder.

Please tell us when you usually play and are available.
Monday 10:00 AM-10:00 PM EST
Tuesday-Thursday 10:00 AM-11:00 PM EST
Friday-Sunday: I don't have actual time tables for these because those days are spontaneous. I'll try to get on when I can. But if you need a time, I'd say it varies, usually available for 2 hours-12 hours. Some days I do nothing while other days I go out.
How would you go about punishing a hacker, spammer, simple rulebreaker, etc?
Color based on intensity of rule:
General Rules-
Hacking- Start recording and status in console while spectating them. Permaban from server.
Chat-
Spamming cheat advertisements: I take this very seriously and if someone does it, I'll usually start recording and enter status in console while spectating them because most who advertise cheats are usually hackers themselves. 1 Warning. If ignored- perma gag/mute (to be safe(this is debatable))
Spamming chat: This counts as spamming with binds or Lenny faces.1 Warning. If ignored- 30 Min>1 hour>6 hours>1 day
Mic-
Mic spamming (earrape or not): Warning. Mute 120 Min>6 hours>1 day>3 days
Jailbreak Specific Rules-
Freekill: If I see it, I'll ask them to slay themselves. If not, instant slay the blue who did it and I'll revive the person freekilled, as well as teleport them if needed to the rest of the reds. Teamban if its excessive for 3 days>1 week
Mass Freekill: Record, Type status, teamban for 3 weeks and Instant server ban for 1 week (If person did it purposefully). If it was by mistake (MFK'er thought he/she was last guard before warden locked + he/she made an appeal), Ban for 2 days and teamban for a week.
Over talking Warden with useless talk (blue or red: Saying stupid stuff while the warden is trying to give orders like "Have you seen the news about this missing dog?! It's crazyyyyy, blah blah blah" you get the idea: Mute 2 hours>4 hours>6 hours>1 day>3 days
Over talking admin during mic check: Instant mute 1 day>3 days
Delaying: Ask to hurry up and rebel. If not, slay in 30 seconds.
Griefing Blue or Freeday: Ask them to stop. If they ignore- Instant slay. If it's a blue, teamban 6 hours (first timer)>1 day>3 days
No mic on blue: Ask them to use their mic. If it is very poor or they don't have one, permamute.Then, If they make an appeal for it, I'll listen and unmute.
Unwardening: It is usually because they have no mic or aren't sure what to do. Teamban 1 day>3 days>1 week
Ghosting: 6 hour gag or mute for first timers>1 day>3 days
Ammo Glitching:Ask them to leave and come back because it resets the loadout. If they don't leave, Instant kick with reason (rejoin). I believe it stops them from getting ammo. If they are excessively ammo glitching, 1 day server ban.(still not sure how people "purposely" ammo glitch)
Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know.

Regarding My Ban/Mutes:
Most of you already put what you think of me and I appreciate the brutal honesty. It's not like I'm trying to hide the fact I was banned for 3 days and muted for a week. I used to be an excessive mic spammer a year ago but I truthfully stopped doing that in around March. Since we are being truthful, I'll tell you about those times. You could decide whether you think I'm lying or not. Ever since I graduated, I did lots of things I'm not proud of. The day I was banned/muted for a week, It was the day my family was celebrating me and my brothers graduation/college application. That day, I handed In my college application and was looking to unwind. I'm from Lebanon and it is a tradition in my family to smoke and have fun. I got back home late at night that day and decided to go on tf2 stoned. As a side note, this is not something I regularly do. I'm only allowed to smoke every blue moon (6 months). The reason I stopped mic spamming was because I grew out of it. Someone gave me a long lecture of being mature and I strive to do that everyday. When I'm "out of it" (stoned), I become immature and dumb. I woke up next day seeing the ban and mute, and I told myself, "I deserve this". I shouldn't have played TF2 that late at night and decided not to make an appeal that day. Call me a hypocrite. Call me a liar. Call me immature. All I'll say to that is I appreciate the honesty. I strive everyday to become better than before. Ever since that day I stopped using my soundboard software on BlackWonder servers. I only use it on this one server that allows it at the end of each round, you can ask Jim about it (RAILBAIT), and for my Youtube channel.
I then got 1 mute after that which was from forgetting to stop my software after I accidentally hit my X key(play key)(I was on the other server and Copy invited me for some jailbreak) and the last one was Copyright and I making a joke. It was because I posted the discord server link in chat and we just laughed about it.
Activity-
Activity-
I know I should be more active on the forums and discord. I hardly talk because I'm a shy person to new people. I don't know many admins because I never get a chance to talk to them. It's like being the new guy at a party your friend invited you to and trying to make friends. I feel out of place or unqualified to talk to other admins because I just met them. Jim is an old friend of mine and Copyright and I were friends when he was a donor and I was a normal member. I go on the forums everyday since last week and I am posting more often than before. I used to go on sometimes last month If I had questions about something. I joined the Forum and Discord about 2 months ago. I didn't know about them before. I'm ALWAYS online on discord. If by activity you mean talking more, etc, that is something I can improve on.
Personality and Clarifications-
Basically: Laid back and playful when I'm not stressed. When I'm warden or telling someone as a donor that they are breaking a rule, I'm very serious. I'm shy and It is something I try to work on daily. I also explain myself A LOT, which is why these paragraphs are large. I selected no in "Do you know any admin commands?" Which was because I think admin commands are different from donor commands, being they are more complicated. I know to always use / and some other minor things like @<playername> or @all, etc. It's not like I've never seen an admin command before. I learn from seeing, and before when I applied for admin on this other server, one of the admins told me that if I was accepted they would teach me all of the admin commands. They had the server and everything for it, I'm not sure if you guys do it either. This is purely from my experience from before.
Final words-
I don't know if it's cheating or bad luck, But i saw most of your comments when I accidentally hit enter. I tried to clarify some things and I'm being honest when I say I was going to talk about the ban/mute before I saw the comments because i know that everything a job interviewer looks for in the beginning of a resume is the bad stuff that have little to no explanation. I appreciate all the feedback, and I hope after FINALLY completing this like I should've done in the beginning instead of being a dummy and hitting enter, you could see this from my point of view and criticize me correctly.
[Edit] : Pressed the Enter key while I was writing "Please tell us when you usually play and are available" and it automatically made the application, I was trying to make more space, my bad.
[Edit]: Few grammatical errors and completion of application.
[Edit]: Final grammatical errors and fixed some punishments that were a bit excessive.
[Edit]: Revamped punishment section to accommodate for increase/decrease based on sourcebans.
