this is my third time of submitting an application for staff on this server, but since it's the only thing i play in tf2 these days, i'm just wondering if i could help instead of getting killed by every freekiller.

Hi, just gonna go over your application real quick.

First Application
Second Application

This is the third application you've submitted where you don't have the required playtime. Both of your previous applications have pointed this out

One teamban since your last application for MFK

Again-
This section is for you to show us that you know the rules and their proper punishments. Saying that you'll just punish them when they break the rules doesn't really show that you have a strong understanding at all. The more time you spend on our servers, the more familiar you'll get with our rules. Feel free to take a look at some of our accepted applications to get a general idea of the kind of effort we're looking for.

It feels like you're not really listening to the feedback that you've been given on your past applications. We have encouraged you to increase your playtime before and it feels like you're treating it as an optional checkbox. To be clear, we've only accepted applicants who lack the 3 days of cumulative playtime because they've shown a sufficient understanding of the rules and how to properly apply punishments. That is not a common case.

Please reach out to us if you have any questions. Thanks

as i answered to one of your questions:

Is there any other information you would like us to know about?
if i'm even gonna get accepted in the first place, just tell me the basics so i don't screw up in the first week

and also, as i answered one of your questions:
Have you managed servers previously? No

_____________________________________

If i didn't have an understanding of the rules, there wouldn't be a Reason to apply in the first place.

Also, i've mentioned that my way of punishing people depends on how much the situation escalates. For example, if someone has been saying naughty words, such as the F slur in a sentence like "oh f" then it's a small mute (30 min), And if a usage of such word Is used against someone, than the mute/gag will be dealt with by giving a longer mute/gag. Depending how bad the slur Is, And how it's being used, the punishment of a mute/gag shall be prolonged (such as 24h) for more harmfull slurs that people would get punished by anyway, since even baiting it with something such as a single letter Is still offensive to the other party.

More playtime DOES NOT help me get familiar with the rules, to get more familiar with the rules, i read them, And that's why admin's wrote them in the first place.

The feedback that has been given to me in my last applications, "was" (to say the least) helpfull with changing my ways of treating others around me differently, which also showed me a better way to enjoy jailbreak. As feedback for the applications, it wasn't helpfull at all. Instead of telling me what to change in my application, they've just told me that i'm lacking hours on the server, which (as i Said) does not help with understanding the rules or anything else, it's only usefull to get to know the community, And the kinds of people that i play with And that Are around me, which i'm well aware of, but as we all know, there Are others with not so nice behaviors, that tend to ruin the Fun, And that's why i made this application in the first place, to punish those who are breaking the rules, ruining the Fun for others, And just straight up being toxic.

The purpose of this reply was just to show that if such people like me who lack on having 72 whole hours on a video game, who don't have the proper requirements, that it doesn't mean that i haven't read the rules, And that i haven't got even the slightest understanding of the rules or how to play, because as a player of the jailbreak community, i have to read them to keep playing like i'm supposed to, and to keep the Harmony And peace of jailbreak, And that's why i'm here with this proposal to help you keep that peace intact. i'm just someone who Is aiming to overall help the server grow, And become an outstanding member of the community.

Just to be clear, this reply is just for my opinion with my side of the view towards the reply of the admin. I have explained everything that i needed, And if there Is anything to be disgused, please let me know in dm's on *"Discord"*.

I Wish you a great day, And have Fun.

This isn't a Christian Minecraft server - These people don't punish for simply saying 'oh fuck'.
Your understanding of the rules is rudimentary at best. You've ignored feedback from your previous applications, meaning you're not willing to listen to those that have the knowledge you do not.

To be a successful applicant you need a basic understanding of the rules and the common sense of when and how they apply to certain situations. You are applying for JAILBREAK, which is quite a bit more complex with the rules and context in which they apply than say... Saxton Hale servers.

If you're looking for a permanent handholding during the first week, you shouldn't be applying. You'll be too afraid to punish people that actually need it, and you'll jump the gun on the tiny things that really shouldn't need punishment.

You NEED the playtime so you can UNDERSTAND where the rules apply. The interpretation has some flex to them, and severity/intent of the infraction is key to how you deal with broken rules. They're not completely rigid as that will harm the server and obviously that's not wanted.

Your playtime (For jailbreak or all servers?) has barely increased by a day in five months. Are you applying to be helpful or to simply have the power and enforce your own view of how things should be?

You've made no attempts (on the forums, Discord reports idk) to help the server(s) by reporting problem players, so you've not put your 'knowledge and understanding' into practice. Becoming staff now would be like throwing you into the deep end of a pool and you've never swum in your life.

You're argumentative and unwilling to compromise on a very simple request due to a false belief - get your hours up.

Further edit: Two managers told you to increase your playtime in your apps and this is your response to the post given?

Have you read the forum guide on how to apply? Yes

Now that you have done this, you need to apply what you learned from the guide into your applicaton.

You also need to be an active player of the gamemode/servers you want to moderate.

Hello Andrew,

Thank you for your interest in becoming a moderator for Blackwonder. After reviewing your application, we’ve decided not to proceed due to a lack of activity and a disregard for suggestions from fellow staff members, which are vital for maintaining a cohesive and supportive team environment.

I encourage you to focus on increasing your time on our servers before considering reapplying in the future.
