Have you managed servers previously? Yes
Which servers have you previously managed?
I have been a moderator on Ozzy TF2, Aurora TTT/DarkRP, and Moat.gg TTT. Unfortunately, all three servers are dead, and I have no real proof of my time on Ozzy or Aurora. However, there's a lot of info about Moat.gg that I can direct you to, as well as put you in contact with other staff members, including a previous "senior admin" (the second-highest staff position on the server) if need be.
On what servers do you usually play on and which one would you like to moderate?
I highly enjoy multiple game modes, usually focused on amplifying the wacky nature of TF2. The servers I frequent are:
US Orange 100% Crits; 85.117.240.61:27055
US 2Fort; 85.117.240.3:27030
TX Dustbowl Class Wars; 45.35.1.186:27185
US HighertowerX x1000; 85.117.240.57:27035
US Dustbowl Class Wars; 85.117.240.9:27110
US Highertower Randomizer; 85.117.240.12:27010
US Highertower x100; 85.117.240.10:27000
There are several other servers that I haven't spend much time on, but that are very similar that I wouldn't mind staffing, such as:
NY Hightower No Carts; 104.194.9.222:27155
US Gun Game; 85.117.240.18:27040
US Turbine 100 Cap Limit; 85.117.240.5:27100
Once again, pretty much any of the core game modes of TF2, I'd be willing to staff the servers. I have VERY limited experience with Jailbreak, and it would take quite some time for me to ever feel comfortable staffing those servers. Same with Deathrun, VSH, and Dodgeball.
Why would you like to become a moderator?
I enjoy keeping servers fun and clean. I find myself filing a lot of reports, most of which are accurate and result in action. I believe there's only one spray report I've filed that was declined, which I still personally maintain that it violates the "common sense" rule for pornographic/suggestive sprays. (To me, conveniently placed censorship hair/a shirt pixels off from exposing a nipple is suggestive enough to warrant punishment.)
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
I know a few of the staff, but have not exactly spoken at length with any of them. I'm not too fond of reaching out and taking up people's time without need, so most of my interactions have been directly related to server-related problems. As I don't have any permission to list names, I won't put any down. However, if any of the staff members I have interacted with are willing to let me put their names here, please feel free to contact me on Discord. (I can probably think of two that I've at least played with/while they were on the server a handful of times.)
Edit 2: I have obtained 10000 Cold Knight's permission to list his name.
How often do you play TF2?
Quite a lot. Over the years, I've accumulated over 3000 hours on TF2. I had a previous account with around 2300, and my current account is just about to hit 1000. I have about 60 hours in the past two weeks, so I'm on quite a bit. My real-life schedule is week-to-week, so there's no real consistent days.
Please give us your ideal way of punishing players, specific to the server you want to moderate
Punishment ladder, here we go.
Micspam/Racism/Slurs/Player Harassment/Non-English language via voice chat:
1st offense; 1 hour mute
2nd offense; 4 hour mute
3rd offense; 12 hour mute
4th offense; 1 day mute
5th offense; 3 day mute
6th offense; 5 day mute
7th offense; 1 week mute
8th offense; 1 month mute
9th offense; 6 month mute
10th offense; permanent mute
Evidence would be collected via recorded video footage
Chatspam/Racism/Slurs/Player Harassment via text chat:
1st offense; 1 hour gag
2nd offense; 4 hour gag
3rd offense; 12 hour gag
4th offense; 1 day gag
5th offense; 3 day gag
6th offense; 5 day gag
7th offense; 1 week gag
8th offense; 1 month gag
9th offense; 6 month gag
10th offense; permanent gag
Evidence would be collected via screenshots of in-game chat, as well as chat logs
Inappropriate spray/Objector/Photo Badge:
1st offense; permanent sprayban
Evidence would be collected via screenshots
Unique to this rule: The definition of "Inappropriate" can be subjective. I definitely tend to lean towards the stricter side and err on the side of caution, but finding the balance is something I strive for.
Hacking:
1st offense; permanent ban
Evidence would be collected via recorded video footage, and I would most likely collaborate with another staff member for a second opinion unless the hacking is blatant
Abusing the !calladmin command:
1st offense; 1 hour ban
2nd offense; 4 hour ban
3rd offense; 12 hour ban
4th offense; 1 day ban
5th offense; 3 day ban
6th offense; 5 day ban
7th offense; 1 week ban
8th offense; 1 month ban
9th offense; 6 month ban
10th offense; permanent ban
I'm fairly certain evidence would be easily accessible on Discord
Exploiting:
1st offense; 1 hour ban
2nd offense; 4 hour ban
3rd offense; 12 hour ban
4th offense; 1 day ban
5th offense; 3 day ban
6th offense; 5 day ban
7th offense; 1 week ban
8th offense; 1 month ban
9th offense; 6 month ban
10th offense; permanent ban
Evidence would be collected via recorded video footage
Unique to this rule: I feel that this is the only rule on this list that I need to provide an example of what I would consider "exploitation". As far as I'm aware, the only exploit on the servers I play on are engineers building teleporter exits into spawn to allow enemy spies to access spawn, or players abusing airblast/knockback mechanics to push enemy players into their spawn.
Advertising hacks via voice chat:
1st offense; permanent mute
Evidence would be collected via recorded video footage
Advertising hacks via text chat:
1st offense, permanent gag
Evidence would be collected via screenshots of in-game chat, as well as chat logs
Spawncamping:
1st offense; 1 hour ban
2nd offense; 4 hour ban
3rd offense; 12 hour ban
4th offense; 1 day ban
5th offense; 3 day ban
6th offense; 5 day ban
7th offense; 1 week ban
8th offense; 1 month ban
9th offense; 6 month ban
10th offense; permanent ban
Evidence would be collected via recorded video footage
Griefing:
1st offense; 1 hour ban
2nd offense; 4 hour ban
3rd offense; 12 hour ban
4th offense; 1 day ban
5th offense; 3 day ban
6th offense; 5 day ban
7th offense; 1 week ban
8th offense; 1 month ban
9th offense; 6 month ban
10th offense; permanent ban
Unique to this rule: As far as I'm aware, there are no ways to grief on any of the game modes I have listed as ones I could potentially staff, aside from my one personal gripe with the Beggar's Bazooka being used to crash players on x100 and x1000 servers. It's been made clear that this server does not punish players for this, and as such I never would, but I would be first in line to support the intentional crashing of other players to be considered Griefing.
Is there any other information you would like us to know about?
I feel as if I've been fairly clear on my application, but of course if anyone has any questions or concerns about anything they see here, just let me know and I'll either address the concern, or change my information.
In addition to having staffed previous servers, I also hold several positions of various management at events in real life, with a wide range of responsibilities and skillsets. I can always elaborate if needed, but I realize that these may not be considered applicable.
I feel as if my weakest part of this application is my complete lack of current moderator recommendations, and will be reaching out to a few to see if I can edit that section to include a few names.
1st edit: Before it's pointed out by somebody else, I would also like to address an instance of what could be viewed as donor abuse. (See https://bans.blackwonder.tf/index.php?p=commslist&searchText=STEAM_0:0:30671710&Submit=Search). This player had been previously punished for harassment, and he was back at it. I unfortunately mixed up gag and mute in my tired mind for this vote.
