Hello, before I will start my application I would like to thank each & every one of you that you took the time, the trouble of clicking on my application. It doesn't matter if you don't support me or if you leave negative feedback, I appreciate just the action of taking your time & clicking my application. Well then, here we go.


Your in-game name:
tomtomiko


Which timezone are you in?
GMT +2


What country do you live in?
Slovakia - Central Europe


What languages do you speak?
There is a diversity of languages that I can use to help & benefit the server and those include more than 5 languages from all over the world, plus all of these languages are from countries that play on Skyblock with a fair big amount of players everyday. The languages include:

• English - I have two languages that can be considered as my mother tongue. One of these two languages is English. I have grown up in my home town in Slovakia, while attending English classes. Moreover I have been speaking Slovak & English simultaneously, so I can be considered an excellent English speaker. English has played an important role in my life & as you can see I have been successful until now.

• Slovak - As I already mentioned before Slovak is my mother tongue. I have grown up in the country I was born & I love this language since. I have seen quite a few Czech & Slovak members on the server(Czech & Slovak is really similiar), so I would greatly benefit the server using these languages as my support.

• Croatian - I visit Croatia every year which means that I have some knowledge of the language. I can speak fluently so if any Croatian player stops by, I am able to help him in any way possible.

• Czech - Czech is a nearby country next to Slovakia. The language is really similiar so I don't have any problems in speaking it. I have seen quite a lot of Czech speaking players. So this language should be of help.

• German - Apart from English as my main language, I was learning & I am still learning German in my school. I can consider myself a fluent German speaker because I am able to communicate with people that come from Austria(German is the main language in Austria, and is close to Slovakia) with barely no problems. There are quite a lot of Germans on the server from my side, as I have seen, so if any German speaking player by coincidence happens to stop by, I'll rush to help him.

• Mandarin - Mandarin has played a big role in my life, I don't think I could live without it anymore becasue I am so mentally attached to it that I just can't bring myself to stop learning this wonderful language. I attend private lessons since I was in third grade(I'm in year 9 now), which means I have been learning Mandarin for 7 years. If by any chance a Chinese person happens to stop by, I'm the person he should consult with.

Note: I am planning to learn Spanish, Russian, French & Japanese. In the near future as well. That would greatly benefit the community.



Do you have 2FA enabled? Yes/No
Yes I do have 2FA enabled for purposes stated here



Do you have the necessary means of capturing evidence? (i.e. recording software, screenshots, etc)
- I own Camtasia and Fraps for video recording
- I am able to screenshot for scammers and proof of rulebreaking

Why do you think you should become a mod?
There are several reasons as to why I should be given a chance to moderate and those are:

• Approachable - In my 6 years of online minecraft gameplay, I have built some charisma & kindness on servers. I have experience in online gameplay(chat-wise), that not many players have. This characteristic is helping me communicate with players more and have meaningfull conversations with players, I always try to make people laugh even though they had a hard day. No matter what the cause I strive to make their face shine again. In my past experiences I try to be a player that has respect, but is fun to be around with. Or better said, be comfortable around with. And lastly, even in my worse day of my life, I try to be as positive as possible to ensure a good and positive community.

• Experience - Can be helpful in a variety of ways. I have experienced the bad sides & the good sides of servers. In this period of time I have experienced negative approach towards people like harassing, terrible arguments which lead to devastating after effects, trolls and so on....But I have also experienced some positive approaches. I have gained knowledge & experience on how to resolve chaotic situations. Situations which others thought that couldn't be solved. Everything that I have been a part of in these 6 years, I would like to share with this server & with this astonishing community. Lastly, without this experience I could misjudge a person’s intention & I could punish them falsely & therefore a big mistake could happen.

• Quality - I highly cherish quality and manners when it comes to staff. Moderators are supposed to be an example for other younger or less experienced players. Being professional is key to having respect and have all the situations under control. Every moderator should treat players equally and with utmost respect. When staff are going to set high standards at moderating and then behave according to them people will respect and treat everyone equally and therefore there will be less arguments and in the long run, a better community. I intend to make a good example for every player out there by respecting every player and judge correctly in every situation.

• Bringing people together - I have this weird, but very important & useful characteristic. I am able to bring people together, you're probably asking "How is that going to help the server?" Here's how. We live in a world where negativity & darkness prevails, but, what is the key for peace & positivity? Exactly, bringing people together no matter how different they are. A good example for this is Obama's speech in 2004. And here I quote

"Yet even as we speak, there are those who are preparing to divide us, the spin masters and negative ad peddlers who embrace the politics of anything goes. Well, I say to them tonight, there's not a liberal America and a conservative America there's the United States of America. We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of America."
This is a perfect example of bringing people together, Obama has perfectly shown that there is only the United States of America & I want to show upon this & remind you that I own, maybe not so well right now, but I do own this characteristic & will use it to bring the people together & therefore creating a positive & happy community.

How long can you be active on the server everyday?
I am dedicating as much time as possible to the server for the reason that I enjoy playing, talking with the community & am having a great time spending my time on Skyblock.net. Here's a schedule of when I can be online, of course I am going to explain everything in detail so that you have full understanding as to why the schedule is as it is.

• Monday - 18:00 - 22:00. Before 18:00 I go to a debating club where I drill my debating & argumentive skills, later I start my regular swimming lessons which take about an hour and a half till 17:30 & after that I can be home at 18:00 which is when I start my daily dose of Skyblock.net

• Tuesday - 17:30 - 22:00. I attend regular private Mandarin lessons which require a lot of time for the reason that it is considered the most difficult language in the world at the moment & it does live up to its name. I dedicate one and a half hour of constant Mandarin learning with a private tutor & just a fun fact, I have been learning Mandarin for over 7 years now & I can fluently speak & write in Mandarin. After my course I take a daily dose of Skyblock.net once again.

• Wednesday - 18:00 - 22:00. The almost identical schedule applies to Wednesday, I have a one and a half hour lesson of Mandarin & after that I can get on Skyblock.net & explore the world of awesomeness.

• Thursday - 17:30 - 22:00. My Mandarin lessons apply to three consecutive days. Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday. After I finish my Mandarin lesson I am once again back to Skyblock.net.

• Friday - 18:00 - 22:00. On Friday I have a swimming training which takes place from 16:00 - 17:30 just as Monday, after that I am free to be on Skyblock.net. During the period of time between 14:00 - 16:00 I can attend Skyblock using Minechat & use that time to help the chat.

• Weekends - All day & I'm proud of it.

How long have you been playing Skyblock?
I may have mentioned this before, however I have been playing skyblock since it has been released & dedicated my time to learn a lot about how it works. Knowledge is very important.



Have you ever been banned in the past? (Forums & In-game)
No fortunately I have been never banned, I am not having any problems with obeying the rules & also enforcing them.



Do you have any past experience as a moderator?
Yes, let me explain, keep in mind that I have not been a moderator on any large scale server. However I can show that I am qualified & have past experiences as a "moderator"

In school I am the main person that organizes field trips, problems in class and a bunch of other things that have helped me experience the burden of being a "moderator" in a sense. I know how to handle a mass of people in real life without any problems, thus I can apply this experience and knowledge to this server and help everyone out there.

In conclusion I am experienced in real life when it comes to moderation & am able to apply this experience on a minecraft server without any problems.


Do you meet the requirements for staff? Yes/No
I do meet the requirements for achieving moderator position. I have shown that I am able to help anyone with struggles & I have shown all in-game, forums.

And lastly I would like to thank everyone who stopped by and read my application. Even if you don't support my application I would like to thank you that you at least used your time to evaluate & give me feedback.
