    Introduction
    Hello, my name is Trinity, although I am called trin by most of the community! I have been playing skyblock for 7 years on my personal account, although with lots of breaks in between playing. I started playing on /skyblock originally and although it will always have a place in my heart, I love the calm environment of the economy server and find myself there more often compared to what I used to be. I’m currently in high school and enjoy playing Skyblock in my free time.

    Your in-game and discord tag:
    My in-game name is twxntyonepilots, and my discord is trinity#6597

    What time zone are you in?
    I am in the Eastern time zone, GMT -5.

    Can you speak any additional languages?
    I’m currently learning Spanish and I'm fluent in English

    Do you have the necessary means of capturing evidence?
    Yes, I can use OBS for recordings and I can use Gyazo for screenshots. I also use f2 and Imgur if there are multiple screenshots needed.

    How long can you be active on our platforms every day?
    Discord: I can be on discord for the majority of the day due to it being on mobile and being able to access it on my computer whilst at school too. The only day I am unavailable on discord for the majority of the day is Friday due to the fact I have no service on my phone and my school's internet doesn't allow me to access discord.
    Forums: I can be on forums about the same amount of time as discord. I check it regularly throughout the day, and even though my computer at school does allow me to check forums, I don't check it there.
    In-game: My activity peaks on the weekends as I'm now about to go back to school in person.

    When did you first join Skyblock?
    Sometime in 2014.

    Have you ever been banned on any platform?
    Yes. Multiple times, both in-game and on forums. I was banned on the discord once? From what I remember.
    Here's a picture of my forums punishments just so it's not just based on what I said.

    I would like to also say that even after such a rough and bumpy history, and even sometimes having my own personal bumps here recently, that I feel like I have changed from how I used to be in the past. I used to be really nasty and toxic for no reason other compared to the fact I was insecure and took it out on other people. I didn't know how it felt until it happened to me. I know that what I did shouldn't be excused or forgotten. I just wanted to explain what I did and how I have changed from then. And I'm also sorry to anyone who may be reading it that was on the other end of my nasty comments.

    Do you have any past moderation experience?
    I moderate a discord server that has now gone inactive - but it was called The Leaky Tap. I owned my own discord servers, and I co-own on a smaller friends server. I helped own a few members' servers from here.

    Why do you think you should become a staff member?

    Active

    I check forums often, and I am in-game a majority of the day. I check up on the discord regularly, joining voice chats as well. I do my best to involve myself in the community, often chatting with players. When I’m out and about, I check forums and discord regularly, always checking in to see if anyone needs anything. I’m able to reach out to players on every platform, which I feel is very beneficial for not only me but others as well.

    Mature

    I am very mature for my age. I am able to joke around yet still have a good time. I can also take action/give warnings when needed. In the past, I have had instances where I have not been quite mature, but I can assure you that I have changed how I act day to day in chat.

    Unbiased

    I’m not scared to take action against any of my friends. I’m very fair when it comes to punishing people with who I may be close to. I wouldn’t let my personal opinions or preferences hurt how I punish anyone on the server, whether it is me not punishing someone who I am friends with or over-punishing someone I don’t like. I don’t let my feelings get in the way. If a friend was breaking the rules, I’d take the same action on them as I would just any other player.

    Understand the rules

    I know the rules very well. I have a history on this server, which is long, to say the least. I feel like that since I have this history, I know the rules well due to the fact I used to do my best to disobey them. Having such a long history has made me familiar with what to do in certain situations and how to handle them correctly. I also check up on the rules regularly, in-game, and on discord. I make sure that I know the rules to the best of my ability and I do my best to stick by them. I enforce them in chat if someone is breaking them. I can tell people what's against the rules if they ask as well.

    Honest

    I am a very honest person. I’m honest with every player I come in contact with. I make sure that I don’t sugarcoat anything and I’m straight up. I don’t lie about anything. Being honest is a good quality for applicants, as well as anyone in general.

    Approachable

    I do my best to make myself as approachable as possible. I maintain a friendly attitude, and I’m always kind to others in chat. I’m constantly talking and I believe that also makes me more approachable. I make sure I can make any player feel safe in the community.

    Dedicated

    I’m dedicated to this server. I have been here since 2014, and I don’t see myself leaving anytime soon. I find my joy to be the same, if not more, to log onto this server and be a part of it. I enjoy every aspect of this server and I don’t see my interest dying anytime soon.

    Patient

    I’m a very patient person. I can help people when they don’t understand the short and simple version and may need a more in-depth description of what to do. I am also very calm, making it easier for me to help the player, even if I do have to repeat myself.


    Do you meet the requirements for staff?
    Yes, I do.


    Thank you for taking the time to read my application. Please leave any feedback!

    Support. I write this response as a fellow player, not a friend. Even though trin has had some issues in the past, she doesn't let it bring her down or stop her from applying. I believe she would be a great addition to the staff as she is always active and helps out constantly. Best of luck to you trin.

    I think there’s a lot to be said for someone who has a troubled past and can overcome that. While of course it’s a great thing to have applicants and staff who don’t have any ban history and always have chosen the right path, choosing the wrong path can be a great life lesson and lead you to understand a lot more about the world around you.

    I believe this to be true for trin. She’s had a troubled past on the server, but she has learned and grown from those days. She understands many things on this server in ways others do not and continues to impress with her willingness to help, support and enrich the community.

    I also want to add in addition that my thoughts here are genuine and not impacted by my positive relationship with trin. A simple visit to my profile is enough to see the many interactions I have with trin, but these are all very recent. I actually can’t say I ever really spoke to her before a couple of weeks ago and if this application was up then instead of now, my answer and feedback would be the same.

    Full support, good luck, and I urge others to read what I said and decide to support you as well.

    As someone who spends a lot of time on the server, I do know trin is an extremely active player. Although I am aware of some things she has done on the server in the past, I do believe she's learnt from it. You can't go back on the past, but learning from your mistakes will allow you to grow better as a person and help you in the future.

    When I am online, I always see trin helping people out or giving people advice in public chat. As she has been a player on the server for a long time, she has a large amount of knowledge about the server which will definitely help her if she were to become a staff member. In addition to this, a very large amount of the community are aware who trin is, and have a positive opinion on her due to her outgoing, kind and helpful personality.

    Although she may be seen as 'young', she is an extremely mature person and this is shown through the way she handles things & how she talks. As mentioned earlier, you are extremely active in game and this carries over to forums and discord. I am writing this response as another member of the server, and not just her friend. I think you would make an amazing addition to the staff team and I wish you the best of luck! :)

    Full support.

    I'm very well aware of your background and the downs you had to face. It is very unfortunate and you never deserved any of that. Some of your bans and have had to do with what was going in your life and its not your fault because of that. I've known you since 2016 and can say you have improved your behaviors since then. Sure there were a few problems but it happened so let it be. I see you almost always in game, on forums as well as discord. I've seen you help out though you it would be nice to help out a bit more but thats all I can think of for you yo improve

    Support!

    i have constantly seen comments from you in game and on the discord like 'women don't exist' etc and i have seen comments coming from you about wanting to partake in acts of self harm, both controversial topics and thus breaking the rules

    I will remain neutral.

    You are for the most part a kind person and you are an active player.
    I know you have a past, we all do, but I'm glad you have bettered yourself.

    However, I personally can't see you as a staff member. In the future, maybe, but now I can't support this application.
    You have caused a little trouble on Discord and have questioned the rules instead of following them, and this was recent.

    You still haven't really proven that you won't cause certain issues again.
    You're active, yes, but that's not enough to get you to Helper. You'll definitely have to prove yourself especially since you have a past here.

    Anyways, good luck, and if you keep having a good track record, I'll definitely think about changing my mind.

    Hi Trinity,

    I actually had an idea this was coming and was actually excited to see this. I know that you are a Survival Player however I notice that you come on Eco too, which is amazing. I’ve seen you help sometimes on Survival (I’m not always on) and seen you help on Economy. You are discord and Forums active which is really good and I think you are suitable for staff. You’d be an amazing helper on Survival who’d often come on Economy (or whoever you’d plan your playtime) and it’d be amazing for you to join the staff team.

    Without wasting more time typing, I’m going to give you my support. You’re a kind and understanding player who is definitely approachable and I know will be unbiased and fair. Good luck!

    Hey Trin! Awesome to see that you have put out a staff ap!
    I think that you are an awesome person and would make a good addition to the staff team!
    But for the moment I am going with Neutral however I am leaning extremely close to support.
    You are extremely active in game (from what I have seen) and on discord.
    It has been awesome seeing you on eco and i hope that you continue to visit us!
    As a not mainly survival player, I don't see you on there a lot as I am usually not there so I cannot comment on your helpfulness in chat over there. However, you are not very helpful on eco BUT this is more then likely because you are newish to eco and that is Perfectly fine :heart:
    As improvement I suggest trying to help out a little bit more on discord and eco when you can, please do not feel inclind to help if you dont know how to, there are plenty of us who can help them and you at the same time!

    Anyway, apologies for the amount of words used xD
    I wish you the best of luck and hope to move to support soon! :heart:

    Hey trin!

    I support! It is awesome to see you applying. I've noticed you coming over to economy and talking on discord and you seem really knowledgeable when it comes to the server. I can tell you enjoy playing and you are a great addition to the community!
    I think you would be amazing on the team.
    It would be amazing to see you on Economy a little more but when you do come on you are helpful to players and polite.

    Best of luck, Megan :)

    Thank you three for your support :heart:

    When I was making these comments, I was in a dark time and in a state where I was more just on here to be a rule-breaker, but I regret my actions that I did in that state and I would undo it if I had the choice.
    Thank you for your feedback Mai.
    Is there any feedback you'd like to give?

    Pillow I was wondering if you had any feedback on what I could improve? I noticed you had rated me neutral but agreed with a post that the person had supported me.

    Heya Trin; great to see you are applying for staff.
    I don't want to waffle on too much so will get straight to the point.
    The past couple of months I have gotten to know you a lot better than I ever did in the past and I like to think we have built a good friendship with one another. I understand you prominently play Survival so it has been nice seeing you hop onto the Economy server once in a while. I believe you are incredibly mature for your age and was blown away when you told me it the other day as I thought you were in your early 20s at the youngest.

    However, I understand you don't always show high levels of maturity on Skyblock, and to my understanding, you have caused trouble on both Discord and forums recently. Therefore, I cannot see you as a suitable staff member for the time being. I would just like to make it loud and clear that this doesn't mean I don't think you will ever make a good staff member, as I believe you do indeed have potential in the future.
    In addition to this, you have broken some other rules during the application process already:

    trin dm advertising.PNG

    As shown in this image, you basically DM advertised me your staff application over Discord. I am always happy to give feedback on any application if the applicant politely asks me to, although here you messaged me the link with no context whatsoever. This leads me onto think that you did this to a number of users.
    I know as a fact that you are not the only applicant that is doing this or has in the past, but this in particular caught my eye due to the link not even being accompanied by a short message.
    I personally do not find it honourable to "get the word out" like this, and this is a major factor in me not being able to support this applicant.

    I'm going to go with neutral for now, Trin.
    I wish you the very best with your application and I will come back to it when I change my mind.

    I think you misunderstood the rule. She isn't allowed to publicly advertise her staff application on any skyblock related platform Noobcrew owns. If its her own discord server, or through DMs then it seems fine. Although I do agree with you that she should've been more clear when she did send you the link in your DM

    From my understanding, if she is DMing this to users in the Skyblock server without asking them beforehand or without them asking, it may count as advertising her application. I think it's just best overall to ask users so that misunderstandings or things like this do not occur.

    I'm going to go Neutral for now.
    Recently, in the short time that I was a Discord Moderator, I did have to deal with you multiple times, I know that people change but I haven't seen anything to prove that you have grown as a person since these incidents.
    The incidents weren't anything major but they were generally rebellious against the rules, and questioned actions of Staff Members.
    Personally, I'd like to see some change before I support you.
    I think you have great potential as you grow, but its just about showing that this has happened, I'm sure in the near future you will be gaining my support :)
