Have you managed servers previously? Yes

Which servers have you previously managed?
TF2 Fyre-G Jailbreak (Australian Jailbreak) - MOD
TF2 Raffel Deluxe (Misspelt on purpose) - MOD
Gmod Dopefish ZS (Zombie Survival)- TRIAL MOD
And a couple Minecraft servers here and there way back ;) (not gonna bother looking them up cuz they dead boiii)


On what servers do you usually play on and which one would you like to moderate?
BlackWonder AUS | Jailbreak - Admin Privileges (mod/etc)

Why would you like to become a moderator?
I've played this gamemode for quite some time now and know the in's and out's of Jailbreak. Being playing the game since a Jailbreak server called GhostTA where my love for this game started (around 7* years ago), and since then have followed the game closely throughout the many adaptations from each server group to the next. As of now, i fully understand the current rules and can't wait to have fun playing some Jailbreak whilst having the power to moderate rounds and keep the fun going :)

Do you know and have spoken to any of the current staff members? No

When are you usually available to play?
Either during the Day when i wake up ;) 10am-4pm/5pm or late at night if i'm not working or such 8pm-12am.

Please give us your ideal way of punishing players, specific to the server you want to moderate
Some very basic punishments:

Purposefully FK - Teamban 1 day - 3 days - 1 week - 3 weeks - month - perma (+ respawn red)
Accidental FK - Slay (+ respawn red)
Mass FK - Teamban 1 week - month - perma (+ respawn reds)
Mic Spam - Warning - Mute 1 hour - 8 hours - 1 day - 7 days - month - perma
Chat Spam - Warning - Gag 1 hour - 8 hours - 1 day - 7 days - month - perma
Harassment - Kick - Ban 1 hour - 8 hours - 1 day - 7 days - month - (bullying) perma
Offensive Spray - Sprayban Perma
Ghosting or Delaying - Warning - Slay
Hacking/ Dox - Perma ban


Other (In general) - Warning - slay/ kick - teamban/ban/gag/mute 1 hour - 8 hours - 1 day - 3 days - 1 week - month - perma
^ Includes sticky traps, armory camping, freeday abuse, ammo glitching, favoritism, LR denial, griefing, etc...


Is there any other information you would like us to know about?
Still got a lot of my binds from previous admining and know how to use them :).
Would also love to discuss more about the current rules on my other post on the forum ;P. I'm really keen to get the server in shape and meet more of the BlackWonder community as i already know many vets from Aus Jailbreak communities.


Are you proficient in languages other than English? No

Edited
- Updated punishing players section
- Updated Colour Scheme

Hi Foxless,

I have you on my friend list on steam, so I can tell you were a JB Veteran. However, I believe you only started playing on BlackWonder 1 day ago and I don't think that is enough playtime to be applying for a Moderator position especially for Jailbreak. The rules here are much different from any of the old Aussie JB servers and it took me quite some time to transition to the different rules.

Regarding the punishment section, it's lacking a lot of detail and I would recommend reading previous moderator applications that have been accepted as a guideline because they will have a detailed punishment ladder for different types of violations. E.g. For a free kill, the ladder usually goes 1 day tban- 3 day tban - 1 week tban -2 week tban- 1 month tban etc.

So far, I haven't had a good experience with former AUS JB mods as they have come on trying to do stupid games that was previously allowed such as "Dodge the Rocket Day" and in general there has been a lot of MFKs from previous mods.

Ultimately, you need more time on the server before applying because playing 1 day on the server is not sufficient. This is only my input and it is not my decision whether or not the app is accepted or declined.

Good luck,

-breezie

Pretty fair feedback, thank you :).

And yeah i'm not really aligned with other admins whom were a bit over the top way back such as Cynnicalpillow (i'm sure you remember him ?). But yeah i was actually a mod as well for Ara's first Steam Group way back.

As for more detailed punishment ladder, why are all mods having to make their own guidelines? Surely there should more scaffold for the server so all staff are aligned to the same punishments. But mine in more detail would include:


Purposefully FK - Teamban 1 day - 3 days - 1 week - 3 weeks - month - perma (+ respawn red)
Accidental FK - Slay (+ respawn red)
Mass FK - Teamban 1 week - month - perma (+ respawn reds)
Mic Spam - Warning - Mute 1 hour - 8 hours - 1 day - 7 days - month - perma
Chat Spam - Warning - Gag 1 hour - 8 hours - 1 day - 7 days - month - perma
Harassment -
Kick - Ban 1 hour - 8 hours - 1 day - 7 days - month - (bullying) perma
Offensive Spray - Sprayban Perma
Ghosting or Delaying - Warning - Slay
Hacking/ Dox - Perma ban

Other (In general) - Warning - slay/ kick - teamban/ban/gag/mute 1 hour - 8 hours - 1 day - 3 days - 1 week - month - perma


Anyway as for playtime I completely understand ?, I was pretty shocked to find that there is only one active JB server in Australia and i'm keen to get back into it. I just think the server has pretty limited staff atm and would love to share my experience of playing in the past with the current members and i fully acknowledge the new rules and what they entail.

I'm keen to play some more JB <3

Hey Foxless,
I̶'̶m̶ ̶g̶o̶n̶n̶a̶ ̶h̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶s̶a̶y̶ ̶n̶o̶ ̶b̶e̶c̶a̶u̶s̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶r̶e̶'̶s̶ ̶o̶n̶l̶y̶ ̶r̶o̶o̶m̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶o̶n̶e̶ ̶F̶o̶x̶ ̶s̶o̶r̶r̶y̶ ̶b̶r̶o̶.̶

In all seriousness I've seen you around in discord but never played with you in game. You seem experienced in jailbreak and I trust Breezie's opinion.
Your playtime currently stands at just under 4hours so I strongly recommend you play more for a few reasons, these being:
- get you playtime up.
- familiarise yourself with BLW rules.
- get known within the community
- I'd like to play with you to get a feel for you

From what I can see you aren't in the BLW discord, so I recommend you do that asap.

Your chatlogs are fine, although the Lenny spam isn't great considering it makes up more than half of your 37 entries. Once again just like playtime I recommend you play more so we can get more of an idea of who you are as a jailbreak player.

Have a look at some other accepted or declined applications to get an idea of the detail we would like in your punishment section.

To sum up a few improvements to your app and more playtime and you would be on the right path to becoming a mod.

Good luck and have a nice day
-The one and only Foxsera.

Hi Foxless,

We still need ladders for other offences as there are a lot of violations that can be broken. This is done so you can fully understand the rules and get to know all sorts of offences such as ammo glitching, trick orders etc. Treat this as doing revision on all the violations and their respective punishment ladders. Again, please refer to previously accepted Moderator Applications. Add more playtime, get accustomed to the new rules here and i'm sure you'll make a great Mod!!

I am going to be blunt and say that this makes me very nervous about your intentions here. You have all of the experience on other community servers. What makes you want to be here?

Hai,

Honestly I just love the gamemode ?. I've tried so stray away and spoon-full myself with lots of League (*cough* made it to plat last season) content and other games... but something keeps bringing me back. There's just something magical about dropping everything you're doing and playing a round of Jailbreak whether plotting a mass rebel or assisting the guards escort a group of reds around the map.

Apart from my experience with other community servers, I don't think there's a huge difference between past JB's and the current BlackWonder JB despite a couple rule changes that make the gamemode feel more streamlined. The essence of the gamemode still feels and plays the same as it's always been. My particular interest on the server is to play some more Jailbreak and keep the game enjoyable, and a way I know how to do that moderating the server ?.

Anyhow I adore the larger aspect of the community of not just the Australian JB but also from other countries and I can't wait to see what's next.
Thanks for your time ?.

My experience playing with you on AUS JB gives me the impression you are easily suggestible and will do whatever other people will tell you to, whether it's "for fun" or other nefarious purposes.

I hope you are having a great day. We do appreciate that you enjoy playing on blackwonder servers, but there is still concern about your intention here. Instead of allowing the application to drag on (having this many open for this long is a new thing). Please spend another couple of months on the servers before reapplying.
