Have you managed servers previously? No

On what servers do you usually play on and which one would you like to moderate?
I play primarily LA | Jailbreak. I would like to moderate LA | Jailbreak and possibly AUS | Jailbreak.

Why would you like to become a moderator?
For AUS | Jailbreak, you may notice a lack of playtime on this server since I primarily play on LA | Jailbreak and the ping kind of makes me less interested on playing on here as a main server, but I do see help being needed here on the discord server frequently, and was hoping to be able to do something to help make the server more enjoyable for the players. If I do get moderator for AUS | Jailbreak, I'll hop on the server more frequently and help out. As for LA | Jailbreak, this server is the server I play the most. I love playing on here and this server has sparked my interest in TF2 and Blackwonder. Ever since I had gotten donator, I had done my part of calling votes to punish players to the best of my abilities, but sometimes, almost all the time, the player needing to be punished will evade the vote, join back and start ruining the experience for all the people on the server. I would like to become a moderator so that the people on the server, new and old, can hopefully experience Jailbreak as I did, welcoming, friendly and loads of fun. I would also like to respond to reports, and hopefully get a helping hand from a staff member for my first few responses to kind of guide me and teach me so I can do it independantly.

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
Herald11
Lox in a Box of Cox™
Overkill
Tax Fraud
Wanka

When are you usually available to play?
(PST) Monday to Friday : 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM | Saturday and Sunday : 10:00 AM - 1 AM. Also, from July to September, I have break off of school, so I can be more active and put extra effort into moderating.

Please give us your ideal way of punishing players, specific to the server you want to moderate

Is there any other information you would like us to know about?
Haven't been teambanned a single time
Have only been gagged once by Herald11 for 2 hours for ghosting the Warden's HP as a new player. I have since then realized my mistake and haven't done it since.

This is not my first application. My first application can be found at https://blackwonder.tf/threads/console-cucks-moderator-application.17505/ . As you can see in the responses, my chatlogs weren't the best. I have been improving on this and I personally feel like I have done a lot better since my last app considering chatlogs. I do swear on chat and it is a bad habit, but nothing is used maliciously against my fellow players at Blackwonder, and if it is, it was a joke and I sincerely do apologize for it.

Also, I have 17+ days on Blackwonder servers, which almost all of it is Jailbreak, and some time on Combat Surf or MGE. This amount of experience makes me confident that I can be a helpful and active moderator to help out the servers.


Thank you for reading my application and if you have any concerns, reply below with them and I'll respond to it as soon as I see it.

Hi Console!

First, your application seems fine, I don't see any problems with it.
I'm not a JB staff, so I won't say anything about your JB punishments but your other punishments are fine. My only concern about your punishments is that you jump from 6 hours to 1 day and from 2 days to 1 week, In my opinion, you should try putting a punishment length between 6 hours to 1 day and also one between 2 days to 1 week.

When it comes to your chatlogs, I just took a quick look and couldn't find anything really bad since your last application.
Your discord chatlogs are fine too.

Please don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to offend you but when I look through your chatlogs, I feel you are a bit immature but that's just my impression of you.

In my opinion, it would be better for you and your chances of getting accepted if you waited a bit more. You chatlogs were really bad when you first applied and they are only about 2-3 months old.

I don't really have an opinion on you right now. I do see as a possible fit for the moderator role based on your application but I won't say anything for now. I'll wait until other staff members that know and play with you gives their opinion.

Good luck!

Hi Console!

I will not comment on your chatlogs any more than necessary, and I do have to agree that yes, they do seem immature. Now we can't pretend that those bad chatlogs never occurred, but I believe you can only hold them against someone for so long- and maybe it's just me, but I think that period has passed.

Onto your punishments, which seem pretty monotonous (not a bad thing), I would give a couple more intervals in between punishments, as you seem a little bit 'jumpy' when it comes to punishing. For example:

Freekilling: Slay + Warn > 1 hour teamban > 6 hour teamban > 1 day teamban > 2 day teamban > 1 week teamban > 2 week teamban > 1 month teamban > Permanent teamban

I would add a 2- and/or 3-hour interval in between the 1- and 6- punishment intervals. Since most punishments follow the same sort of ladder, I would just keep a note of that for all future punishments.

Mass Freekill: 1-week ban + Permanent teamban + Respawn REDs freekilled

Usually, people know what they are doing when they MFK, so there is no warning necessary. Not for me, at the very least. On another note, we can't expect yo to know any exact numbers for punishments so don't sweat it.

I see no other outstanding problems in your application as of right now. I do take a liking to how often you report, and that I have not seen a false report from you yet, nor one without evidence or any hassle at ALL for that matter. I think you'd be fine as a Moderator, given your playtime, maturity, and integrity.

Hello console,

I won't be commenting on your chatlogs since Lala and Lox said all that I wanted to say.

Here are my opinions about your punishments:

the standard now is a week teamban, and the ladder goes from there.

Freehitting: Warn > Slay > 1 hour teamban > 6 hour teamban > 1 day teamban > 2 day teamban > 1 week teamban > 2 week teamban > 1 month teamban > Permanent teamban
Force-baiting: Warn > 1 hour teamban > 6 hour teamban > 1 day teamban > 2 day teamban > 1 week teamban > 2 week teamban > 1 month teamban > Permanent teamban

Team killing: Slay + Warn > 1 hour teamban > 6 hour teamban > 1 day teamban > 2 day teamban > 1 week teamban > 2 week teamban > 1 month teamban > Permanent teamban

As said before, the jump from an hour to 6 hours is a big one, I'd add something in between, and the jump from 2 days to a week is also a bit big.

Sticky Trapping: Warn to explode stickies at a safe time > Slay if not complying > (extended if blu) 1 hour teamban > 6 hour teamban > 1 day teamban > 2 day teamban > 1 week teamban > 2 week teamban > 1 month teamban > Permanent teamban
you would teamban a red if they sticky trapped? Normally sticky trapping is a ban.

Generally, I think if someone would take you under their wing, and with some help, you'd make a nice addition to the staff team.

Thanks for applying and good luck!

Hey Lala! Thanks for reviewing my app! I'll take the punishment section review and keep it in mind. I kept my ladder this way after spending time looking over other admin applications to see if they were acceptable times and not too crazy, but I could always tweak my ladder, so thank you for bringing that to my attention. I understand that you think I'm immature and I can see why, but my chat use isn't the same as the times I am on mic, as I do try using my mic for problems that need to be addressed as some people don't always look down at their chat all the time. Overall, I appreciate the feedback and help. Thanks.

Heyo Lox, thanks for reviewing my app as well! I do agree my chatlogs weren't the best when I joined Blackwonder, and there is no excuse for it, but I do believe that those days of being toxic are behind me. The date of the chatlogs may seem recent if you are just checking my TFStats, but personally, weeks feel like months when I'm on Blackwonder. It may be because of how much I play, but truly, I haven't said anything nearly as bad since that "toxic phase" As for my punishments, I was conflicted between adding more intervals myself, but after reviewing some more applications, I thought that the ladder I made for punishing was good. Also, the monotonous punishments, I was worrying about this as well, but on my first application, the only real issues I feel were my punishment ladder and my chatlogs, and in the replies I got on that application, I was told to keep my basic punishment ladder the same and use it as the primary ladder to use for punishments. Also, for the exact number part you brought up, this may seem weird, but since I'm oddly good at math, or at least basic math, I do know the minute values to the punishments needed and I don't mean that at all in a sassy manner, as I'm just reassuring you that it won't be a problem. Overall, thanks for the advice and I'll definitely take the part on my ladder into consideration.

Hello Gibus! Thanks for reviewing my app! I personally did not know that, as just recently on AUS, a MFK was banned from Blackwonder for 1 week, so I assumed that the punishment I put on there would be correct, but thank you for clarifying. As for the punishments, I did this ladder after reviewing admin applications for a while, and thought that this ladder would be sufficient at punishing players fairly, but I can always tweakit as I'm always looking for feedback. Now on to the sticky trapping question, this one I reviewed my older app and used the punishment for that and put it in, but Broken had asked me if someone repeatedly sticky traps, what are you going to do. I then stated that since I can't teamban REDs, I would have to slay them over and over, and as for BLUs, they'd get the punishment ladder. I myself, personally didn't see any server ban punishments from the applications I looked over, and if that was the standard punishment, then I apologize for this mistake. Also, in the quoted area of my sticky trap punishment, it does say (extended if blu), so that no one would be confused. Overall, thanks for reviewing my app and I'll definitely take those adjustments into consideration, and thank you for clarifying the sticky trapping punishment.

Good afternoon Console,

As I explained to you in a DM, I kept this app open a little longer to see a better/larger picture of your behavior on the servers. I am pleased to say that only positive feedback was given by the current mods, and I would like to say welcome to the mod team. I'll be sending you a DM in a bit with additional information. Congrats.
