    To start this off, I wanted to say that I've been on the server for about a year and a half. Through all that time I've been asked to do this because of my natural nature towards helping, compassion and ability to put myself in other people's positions. I finally decided to give it a shot, so here we go. I appreciate you taking the time out of your day to give this a read.

    Your in-game name: AngryGinger1123

    What timezone are you in: Eastern time zone.

    What languages do you speak?: I speak fluent English and I am studying Spanish
    .

    Have you ever been banned? (if yes, why?): I have been banned over a year ago. I was coming onto the server as someone who didn't read the rules or understand the procedures and had island farmed. I got caught one day and all the materials were taken away. I do sincerely appreciate the mod that had done this, I think it was Moonlight, because it gave me an appreciation for the server and its people. Out of all things, I believe it was a step forward to finding the server that truly made me happy to come on each and every day and help others. Events have a funny way of making everything come into place and I have learned my lesson from this, I've apologized multiple times over the year and it's turned almost funny that it's been the most extravagant server I've ever gone on and I only began to realize that when I was banned.

    Why do you think you should be a mod?
    I apologize for the length.

    Helpful: I've been told many times that I am extremely helpful and informational. I put myself in their position and try and give all that I can. If I do not have that information I will ask others for it to do all that I can to give a little help to anyone who needs it. I would want someone who would do the same for me, so I try to do it myself. If I was unknowing and clueless I would want someone who had the thought to put into their situation, so I try to be the person I would need or did need when I was unknowing.

    Compassionate: Since I was young I have been able to show compassion towards others. My sympathy has always been strong in my characterization, I find myself putting my own being into a position of someone else and I feel bad or sorry for them and try to help as much as I can. I'm always concerned about people, to know if they're safe. Even if I don't know them well or at all, I care about everyone I come across. I'm a big believer in be who you needed when you were younger, so I try my hardest to be that mother figure that cares and is concerned about everyone because I always needed that when I was younger or going through a rough time in my life. I willingly open anyone to come into my arms and let me guide, listen or help them in any way possible. I may seem rude or inconsiderate but it's honestly the opposite. I'm always rude because it's my personality and I can hardly control my sarcasm. I feel it's better to be honest about it than to lie and say I'm always polite and sweet.

    Unbiased: I am a very unbiased person and always have been. I try to keep every situation controlled and calm, and even if I can't I will always try to keep everything under wraps. I treat each stranger, each friend, a lover, a family member or anything else completely the same. Understanding, compassion, my personality and informational in a lot of the things I do. I find that it's easier and it makes everyone a lot more calm to treat everyone the same, though maybe I haven't been so in the past I have used the practice for several months and find it coming naturally.

    Understanding: I am a mother at heart. I feel that everyone has a point where they feel misunderstood or not fitting in with everyone else and I know I needed that reassurance when I was younger. So I do try my best to be who I needed when i was young, especially with the younger players but I know the older ones need that as well. I may be younger than them, but I have a lot of life experience which shows me how to comfort and make others feel at ease as well as lending an ear to have them be listened to and even if not understood, feeling heard.

    Informational: I try to keep my opinion out of most things, sticking strictly to facts. Though I do lace my opinions in some of my arguments, discussions or conversations I try to stay more on the factual side as to not offend, be wrong in any of my statements, or treat opinion as fact.

    Loving: I'm a mother at heart. I care for a lot of people and I want everyone to feel at home, at ease and heard when speaking to me. I'm very compassionate and though I do not show it often, it's always been a trait in my heart that I try to show more and more as each day passes.

    Respectful: Respect is a key point to me. I try to respect everyone around me and I am usually respected in return. If I'm not respected I will tell the person that I do not like how I'm being treated and will remove myself from the situation if continued and have another person deal with that situation. I also keep my respect for that person and instead of removing myself, letting them know that I refuse to be treated like this and if they continue I will get someone of higher position to help them into shape. I will always be treated the way I feel deserved.

    Stubborn but willing to change: I am stubborn in my beliefs, but I am always willing to change. If I find or am presented with an idea or change of habit that would benefit me or the people around me, I am willing to accept myself to that change. Otherwise, if it is for selfish benefits of a single person or another situation similar, I am very stubborn.

    Easy learner: I am usually able to grasp concepts very easily. I am intellectual and an easy learner which makes it easier for my brain to grasp onto things and keep them there. If I know I will struggle with having a certain piece of information I will write it down on a sticky note or a notepad and keep it beside me for future reference.

    Quiet but stern: I am a very quiet individual but when I do speak or share my opinion I am very stern and loud spoken. Not in an arrogant way, but if asked or presented with an opportunity to share my opinion and open a mind to a new idea, you bet that I will take hold of that opportunity and put my two cents in.

    Hard worker: I am hard working. If I do a task, am forced to, or want to do I will always give my entire effort because I find no reason to half a** anything at all. I am always proud of my work and feel the need to present it when given back to that person, so it is always at my best effort and capability to make it as wonderful as possible.

    Been here a while so I understand the players and rules: I've been here for about a year and a half so I have read and recited the rules so much they should be burned into my face. I understand player situations, how to handle things, how to calm a crowd and how to control panic from a group or a single person and allow them to fix the situation or to fix the situation as best as I possibly can.

    Quick friend maker: I'm very friendly. Though I'm known for being a little harsh, people are always gravitated towards me. I think it's the funny laugh, haha. But I always have good conversation starters, though I am quiet if you give me a good topic I'll talk for ten years, and I love people. I'm a real people person.

    Not afraid to do tasks: I have never been one to back away from a situation or task. No matter how large, difficult or how much I do not want to I will always grab that situation in my hands and push forward. I take it head on and refuse to back down until I am satisfied that I have given my entire effort.

    Honest: Anything but honesty to me is a waste of time, period. I am always truthful and I find no point in a lie because in reality, lies do more damage than the truth could ever do.

    Patient: I had anger issues and impatience for a number of years. As time passed I realized I needed a change. I slowly started working on my issues and it molded me into the calm and patient person I usually am. Now, not to be confused with me always being patient and polite because that would be a lie and I refuse to lie here, but to know that is usually how I am and if I am not I will end up removing myself as to not offend, hurt or make anyone upset.

    Independent: I'm a very independent girl. I refuse to rely on anyone else for my happiness and I refuse to be a part of anyone or have anyone a part of me. I am a whole by myself, I make myself happy and at the end of the day, I'm only by myself. I have me to rely on for my mental state, happiness, opinions and adoration for life itself.

    Open minded: In my home I was raised to believe in religious tolerance, understanding of different opinions, advice, love, compassion and adoration for others. I have a very open mind with a lot of understanding and respect which helps others feel at home when speaking to me. I love perspective and I love letting others know they can be themselves without the fear of judgement or a fight because I have a different opinion, belief or etc.

    Respected: I am known for a lot of different things, but I am well respected. I am helpful but also rough around the edges so that makes some people afraid, some people admirable and some people down right hating me but that doesn't change the respect aspect. I believe this is a good quality trait to have because if no one takes you seriously, you will get nowhere when you try and be stern.

    A known name: I feel this is pretty self explanatory. I'm a known name which also ties into me being respected. I am known for being a hard a** but also very caring to others in an opening way. To get to that point with me you have to know me a little bit and get me to open up, though I am also a mother at heart and an open book. I just show my care for some people in some ways, not specifically targeting or being biased; just on personality wise, and others in some other ways.

    Not at all easily manipulated, bribed or swayed in opinion: With this point, I've learned my lesson from these things. I can easily pick out manipulation tactics, bribing, and trying to sway my opinion towards or away from one or the other thing. It's become an instinct and I refuse to back down unless it is an actual change to benefit me, not just others or themselves. I try to help others with this as well, since not many people are able to tell when they're being used for own selfish benefit.

    Mature: Though I am only fourteen years of age, I've been through quite a bit which has pushed my maturity levels past what an average fourteen year old would have. This makes me an eligible candidate because I know how much maturity is needed for moderation.

    I feel as if this is an important aspect to add in. I am not perfect. I'm not anywhere near perfection, but I am trying to work my qualities into something that does not dissipate or become troublesome. I remove myself from situations I feel bring out not so pretty qualities in me, and of course I listed a lot of my positive qualities. I do have cons, like I do get impatient occasionally or I do get angry occasionally or I can be rude, but I do try to change these things. I am only human and I am working for improvement everyday.

    How long can you be active on the server every day?
    I hope ya'll can understand that I do have some things that come up unexpected and I have to leave for a few hours, but I will always warn whenever I find out that I won't be online.

    Monday: Three pm to midnight, anywhere between there. I usually stay on about three to four hours on a Monday just killing time.
    Tuesday: Three pm to midnight anywhere between there. Three to five hours on a normal day.
    Wednesday: Three pm to midnight, anywhere between there. Three to five hours on a normal day.
    Thursday: Three pm to midnight, anywhere between there. Three to five hours on a normal day.
    Friday: Three pm to as long as I stay up, which is anywhere from two am to seven am.
    Saturday: From when I wake up which is usually noon to anywhere between two am to seven am.
    Sunday: From when I wake up which is usually noon to anywhere between two am to seven am.

    For Friday, Saturday and Sunday that is where I usually do my activities in my life, but I always warn ahead of time that I won't be there from so and so to so and so. I would say anywhere from two hours to seven hours on those days depending on my plans and if I have to get ready or leave.


    Do you have any past experience as a moderator?:
    No, I don't have any past experience. Though I should mention that I have been offered moderating positions, such as Stel's server and other servers I have played on in the past. Random ip servers, survival normally. I like to stay as a normal player and help out as much as I can from there. But I have experienced genuine care for this server and to make it better as much as my abilities will allow, so I want to come up into the staff team. Though I have no prior experience, I know most of the mods very well and respect them highly.

    I know commands such as /tp [name] [name], /tp [name], /ban [name], /tempban [name], /mute [name], /kick [name], /ipban [ip] and etc.

    Thank you for reading. If you have any suggestions they will be taken into account and I really do appreciate it, you guys.

    -Really caring/motherly like.
    -Can be serious or funny at any given time.
    -Maturity skyrockets the average for her age group.
    -Responds fast with as much information and detail as possible.
    -Very active.

    Although people have their flaws, yes. You seem to be very open minded about them and try to fix them, making it hard to point out.

    I believe you would make a fantastic moderator. Its simply just what you do naturally.

    Goodluck~

    I feel as you've changed drastically over the past few weeks when you've apparently been thinking about applying for the moderator position. I still, however, believe you need to control your temper a bit more before you become a moderator, as a player in need of, e.g. being scammed, doesn't want to deal with their leader or guider being upset. You are honest, strong-hearted, and you're pretty much everything on your application you said you are. Now, I would suggest not swearing in your application or in-game, as moderators can be reported for reasons like that. It's supposed to be a g-rated server, so that's the last thing that we would like to encounter - that being a child wondering what swear words mean or anything along those lines.

    I believe you do have the potential to become a moderator, but just take the things that I said and really work on those. I'm giving you a 90% support until you can change these things.

    Good luck ^^

    I really do appreciate the honesty. I am trying to help myself, it hasn't been that I've been trying to apply for mod. Actually, I was just helping and Stel approached me and told me to go for mod because I would be good in the position and after that and the many other people trying to edge me towards doing it, I sat down for an hour and a half and wrote the application. I'm always trying to improve myself, and I apologize for the swearing. I know we have had problems in the past because of it, but I'm really trying to better myself. Thank you for the support, Lem. :heart:

    No support.

    Last time I talked to you, you had a toxic attitude. You were making jokes about cancer and the way you stand for your claims are in an immature way, specifically by insulting the other player. I could provide screenshots, but my computer is currently not accessible at the moment. You'd have to really work on your attitude and your behavior to change the amount of support I give.

    But anyway, it's really Cyp who decides, so good luck :)

    Before you go off making claims about me, I would like to explain myself.
    If I was making jokes, it was probably with a really good friend of mine. My humor is dark and I don't usually show it, but when I do it makes me laugh and brights up my day a bit. I didn't realize I had a toxic attitude at all, since you're the only person to ever say so. But that doesn't make it any less valuable information. When I insult people, they're my friends. They understand my humor and don't get offended by them in the slightest. I don't insult other people normally, but sometimes it slips because of my unable to control sarcastic personality. But, like I said to Lem, the past few weeks I really have been working on myself. Not because of the mod application or anything like that, but because I found traits in myself that I didn't like.

    Anyway, I really do thank you for the feedback. I'll try to work on the things you mentioned.
