Have you managed servers previously? No

On what servers do you usually play on, and which servers would you like to moderate?
While playing TF2 I spend a majority of time on community servers most prominently Blackwonder's Zombie Survival and Zombie Escape. I am quite familiar with the server-wide rules that Blackwonder enforces as well as the specific rules that are enforced within these two gamemodes and thus wish to mainly moderate Zombie Survival and Zombie Escape.

Why would you like to become a moderator?
As a person who has dedicated their time on these servers for more than 3+ years, it would be an understatement to mention the amount of troublemakers I've seen, and not to forget the moderators far and few between often times these said troublemakers are overlooked, missed, or even entirely ignored whatever the case these players avoid consequences without care. I am purely pursuing the position of moderator to solely punish players that disturb the peace of the server and nothing else.

Do you know or have spoken to any of the current staff members? Yes

Please let us know the names of staff members you know or have spoken to

How often do you play TF2?
On average I play TF2 for 3 hours a day, 6 hours each on weekends, totaling around 30 hours a week.

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

Are you proficient in languages other than English? No

If anyone is curious as to what the BLW sub-community discord server I mentioned is please refer to the image below. These links are located on the main Blackwonder.tf discord server held within the "sub-communities" channel. The server I referred to on the thread is the very top one, "Blackwonder.tf Zombie Survival." I am the owner of that independent and officially endorsed sub-community discord server and manage it as a hangout place for any members that are interested in the gamemode and community.

Hello Venusari (AKA Gary)
Gonna go over your app since I have some interactions with you

You have pretty good playtime though some gaps between play sessions but you seem to be trying to get in more play sessions (For Zombie Survival)

Only 1 ban from 2021 otherwise no prior punishments I was able to find

Recent logs are pretty clean

Now I'm gonna go over some experiences with you in game and discord, your pretty nice in game and always wanting to help improve the game mode with some new balancing ideas as well helping some players. On Discord your pretty chill and get the community's vote on changes, help manage part of zs, and some interactions I had with you are mostly positive.

Now to some cons I will bring up, you were pretty inactive only occasionally joining the server up until April 26th when you started becoming active, but like mentioned above there are some gaps but mostly a nit pick.

You also commented on a report (here) when it wasn't needed back in 2021

Another thing to bring up, while you do have knowledge in map making, the last map you made for zs was back in 2021, a pretty long time since. The activity is mostly what you could improve but other wise I don't have much negative experiences with you. (Though definitely update this if anything new pops up)

But overall, Zombie Survival can really benefit having another mod on the game mode. Most of the problems you had were around 2 years ago and can be shrugged off. Other staff might comment on this since your applying for more than one gamemode.
Otherwise that concludes my reply and Good Luck.

Hello,

Your activity on our servers has since fallen, but I would be a hypocrite to judge you for that; I more than anyone else know that life can get in the way and managing has to take a back seat sometimes, and it seems like your activity follows the same pattern. Sole concern aside, decently solid app. There's some formatting ugliness with the punishment ladder, but I don't have a much to criticize; it's clearly thought-out and some love and effort was put into this. Welcome!
