Server Information
Have you managed servers previously?
Yes, just not any tf2 servers. I manage mc.adnascentiav.tf (very small minecraft server) and several competitive teams.
Are you familiar with admin commands?
No, but I have some general ideas on what they are and how they work.
On which servers do you usually play?
I usually play in order of playtime, dm_duel, mge, dodgeball, 2fort, Turbine, and a few more. this is across a few server networks not necessarily blackwonder.
Application Questions
Why do you want to become an admin?
I decided to apply after talking with a friend about the duel server I like to play on, and what being a mod/admin on it would be like. I was thinking that I want to be able to keep peace and help people like I do for my irl job. I really think that 'd be able to help because of my history with moderation that I get into later in the application but revolves around competitive exp. I think that i'm a good fit for being a mod/admin due to my critical thinking skills and my ability to handle players in my comp teams. I'm team player and i'd love to lend my abilities to blw.tf. I am pretty good at graphic design and I'm in college for programming, I have a website that I designed myself using adobe's portfolio service. Here's the link adnascentiav.tf. I want to be able to help keep the peace while maintaining the tf2 level of chaos.
Do you know any of our current staff members?
No, but I'm friends with several RGL and UGC staff members if that matters
Please tell us when you usually play and are available.
I'm PST, and I try to play as much as I can. Usually at night so 8pm - 2/3am PST but working around my job and school I will be as flexible as I can be.
How would you go about punishing a hacker, spammer, simple rule breaker, etc?
So it's about time to bring up my history with moderation, I'm a competitive player and I run teams. Usually 8-12 people sometimes more. These teams are usually 60-70% people who I don't know and are just trying out for my team(s). This means I have run into players who are less than favorable in terms of personality there's one player specifically in mind that I have the chat logs for anyone interested. but as for what that means for my application, I'm no wallflower when it comes to dealing out the correct punishments. Here's how I tend to think about punishments in matters of intention. If a player who obviously doesn't know what they're doing a slap on the wrist would let them know that no what they're doing isn't ok. However if someone with a history or that I've seen personally or heard about is doing the same thing over and over again a light tempmute or something along those lines isn't going to cut it. A person who didn't know the rules, while ignorance is no excuse would get a much lighter punishment. for instance if they we're chat spamming they might get a gag for 5-10 mins but when that gets lifted then i'd elevate exponentially. 5 minutes becomes 30, several hours, etc. While I don't necessarily have the rules and the differences memorized, for every league I've played in I try to have a strong understanding of the rules. This means that i'd be able to get them down very quickly. I really relate to the quote "talk softly and carry a big stick" in the sense that no person wants to be perma banned for a mistake but no one wants to be in a server filled to the brim with repeat chat spammers and people just bad mouthing everyone.
Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know.
All my comp exp is graphically summarized on my website adnascentiav.tf.
This part for me is I think where I'll shine, like I said earlier I have run several different comp teams which gives me a good experience with moderating schedules, talking with other team leaders to setup scrims and most importantly moderating many players. I've spent a lot of time researching how difference hacks work just because i'm fascinated by them, and i'd think i'm pretty good at spotting them even if it's something very subtle. Just a brief history of my gaming exp, I have roughly 5k hours on Forza driving games starting when I was 8. I started playing tf2 years ago but wasn't really interested until 1 1/2 years ago which is when I put in most of my 1.7k hours. Donating is something that I've considered but isn't quite in the books for me right now. I've won a few awards as a student for game design but I don't want to dox my self so I'll leave it at i'm good at graphics, and graphic design. You guys might be interest in me being in college for computer science and I've recently taken an interest in networking, and i'm thinking about getting my CCNA from cisco. I also moderate some discord servers kinda not worth mentioning since they're 30-50 people so pretty small. p.s. not relevant to my app but i'm #3 on this server https://tfstats.tf/server/351127
Thanks for reading my application and if you have any questions feel free to ask!
