Application Questions
Why do you want to become an admin?
"I want to make BlackWonder better and safer!"... Well, yes I do however, this is a generic answer and not the reason I want to be an admin.
I served in the Army for 10 years. Structure and patience are very big for me. I was a Cadre for many years overseeing more than a thousand young men and women enlisting for the Military, helping build them up for their futures.
I want to bring more than just "making BLW better" or "I want to help deal with hackers". I want to bring that knowledge to the regular player that if something goes wrong there is someone around to help. Someone that can assist with issues whether its large or small.
I believe I can help with some of the disputes that happen. Overall I just want everyone to have an enjoyable time.
Do you know any of our current staff members?
Yes
If Yes, please tell us the their names.

While I know Drax, we haven't had the chance to chat a lot due to time zones being so different.
I have met several of the other admins however, have not had the chance to build a rapport with so I will not list them at this time.
Please tell us when you usually play and are available.
US CST: Weekdays 7pm-11pm Weekends are pretty open
How would you go about punishing a hacker, spammer, simple rulebreaker, etc?
Hacker - Get confirmation and then perma-ban.
Spam chat/mic - Give a formal warning through public chat/Csay so they can read it because some players have voice disabled. If it continues start with a 30min gag/mute, escalating to 1 day, then to a week etc. Punishments would stack over time if these go unheeded or if the player continues to disregard the rules.
General Rule Breakers (ie. trolling/griefing) - Give them a formal warning through public chat/Csay. If they continue, 1 day ban. Following that a week. As above punishments will stack if rules continue to be violated.
Spawncamping - Formal warning through public chat/Csay. If they continue, 1 day ban. Second offense 1 week ban. I would escalate punishments etc.
There are a lot of variables that could really make this long so I tried aiming at first time offenses. Punishments would increase depending on past offenses. Some I believe could be given more leniency or could be more strict conditional on the circumstances. I would make my decisions on a case-by-case basis. As Alex° has advised I would implement the slay/kick option after a formal warning to certain situations.
Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know.
If you were to search my name, you will easily find my WoW character. He is very old! He is still the GM of the guild we put together well over 10 years ago. Other than the Army giving me a great set of core values to live by I have a degree in Computer Science for Graphic Animation. Both of which I am passionate about. My degree allowed me to work in my other passion... gaming. I started out with Curse.Inc and now I'm working at Torch Technologies and getting into basic animations for future games.
While I have never been banned, kicked, muted/gagged, or punished I do have a black mark, albeit not a strong one. Following advice from RainbowRobb I believe it is sensible to bring up information about me that one could easily source from the internet.

I brought this to Robb's attention. He looked over it and told me not to worry. This is from a long time ago and it is easy to see that OzzyFurocity's Owner (Leon) gave clarity to the whole situation in this thread that diffused some of the comments. It is for this reason that I wanted to make the reader aware of this history. If there are any questions regarding this I will try to answer to the best of my ability.
I was also advised to give account of any reports I have made. I currently only have 1 report recorded, however this is because I have dealt with RainbowRobb and Alex° directly requesting their assistance with issues in the servers. Though contact is only made when I have demos/screenshots as supporting evidence. So far those issues/people that I have brought to their attention were found to be in violation of BLW rules and were handled accordingly.
