Why would you like to become a moderator?
The active Blackwonder Jail-Break player base needs me!

I am an active Blackwonder Jailbreak player. I would like not to say, even one of the most experienced Jail-Break players on Blackwonder. I was playing this morning, when the urge to make a mod. application, hit me because of a massfreekiller. My goal is to make the Blackwonder servers a community-friendly place for every player. No hackers, no mic-spamers, no toxicity among any players and to have a nice and chill atmosphere. In the last couple of years i have experienced a lot of stuff on Blackwonder servers. One of the biggest problems in my opinion, is a missing, active admin/ moderator player base on the Jail-Break servers. Since i am also playing on other Jailbreak communities(when the Blackwonder servers are empty), i see the difference between Blackwonder and other Jail-Break communities. They got an almost 24/7 online admin/mod team. But I will solve that problem! My love for the Blackwonder community is endless and it is my most favourite Blackwonder community.

Having been an admin in the Blackwonder community in the past, I consider my chances of this application being accepted to be rather slim. However, I'm writing this application because my hopes of promoting the Blackwonder community outweigh my fears of rejection. My commblog list is long and well aged but i aged too and thus i became more mature.

If you think I can advance and improve the future of the Blackwonder community,

Hi Rob, i am writing from my other account now. It was faster for me to make a new account than trying all of my password combinations i have. I know there is the "Forgot Password" function but somehow i didn't recieve any password reset email...After a couple of minutes trying all of my passwords, i finally revived this account.
Is there a way to transfer the application to this account?

Hey Ducklurch,

Thanks for your patience while we work on the backlog. Your dedication to the community cannot be understated; we appreciate your support over all of the years.

I think it's worthwhile addressing the elephant in the room for the sake of people who may be looking at other applications for inspiration, and for those who may be in a similar predicament. You were removed years ago for admin abuse, when you were still a young teenager. I believe that a well-thought punishment ladder, relatively clean chat logs, and thoughtful reasoning for your staff application have demonstrated your growth over the years. Your penchant for blw.tf is perhaps the only thing that remains unchanged. I think it goes without saying what will happen if you choose to abuse permissions again.

The only real downside I want to emphasize is choosing such a wide swath of servers, and not covering all of your bases with them in your punishments. Maybe this is just me being a stickler from being one of the only trade-centric admins, but I think it's important to understand how to punish people trying to middleman, what to do in the event of someone running away from a spycrab, and more. It kind of reminded me of business students who in their applications talk about wanting to work at "FAANG" companies. The corollary criticism then being that they are casting too wide of a net, and they appear to lack a particular passion. Whatever- I'm getting persnickety, it's clear that your passion is JB, but I'd be careful asking for more perms without providing the level of substance you did for JB.

Welcome to the team! If it wasn't clear, you have perms on JB servers.
