    Your in-game and discord tag:
    In-game: Adriansop
    Discord: Moony#1239 (nicknamed as Adriansop)

    What time zone are you in?
    GMT+1

    Can you speak any additional languages?
    Fluent in Dutch and English. Moderate in French.

    Do you have the necessary means of capturing evidence?
    In-game F2 function for screenshots, OBS studio for recording and chatcraft (android app) for taking screenshots of chat only.

    How long can you be active on our platforms everyday?
    I can usually expend at least a couple hours a day. I don't chat a lot but I come on Discord regularly as well. My schedule changes quite often but despite that most of the time I’m available during the evening.

    When did you first join Skyblock?
    Started in 2015 and played for a little while. Returned in 2018.

    Have you ever been banned on any platform?
    Once on request and once for a chargeback, both on Skyblock Survival in 2019.

    Do you have any past moderation experience?
    As a senior I participated as assistant to take a test on freshmen on their speaking skills in one or more languages (went for French). I'd give instructions for a certain real-world scenario to prepare the students for a conversation with me in French. If anything was unclear I'd do my best to explain it to them. At the end I'd grade them as well.



    =Why do you think you should become a staff member?=
    I've played lots and have gotten to know my way around the server. I'm familiar with both Skyblock Survival and Economy and frequently visit both. I'm also familiar with all the rules on the server (in-game, forums, discord and code of conduct). I've noticed that the team is currently missing a fluent Dutch speaker, and I'm hoping to fill that role. Below you’ll find things I would bring to the team.

    Knowledgeable
    I’m well informed about the server’s mechanics and commands and I know how to use them to help players with questions or general advice e.g. how to earn grass or set up shops. I have no trouble reminding players of our rules, or to guide them to relevant links such as discord and the forums.
    I'm not very confident with discord's functionality but I hope to build up experience for relevant things as I go.

    Teamwork
    Being able to successfully work together with others is not something I'm natural at but it has become increasingly important throughout my studies and I've participated in plenty of group assignments where teamwork is vital (sports too actually). So I have here and there experience in communication, support, results and accountability. Usually everyone lacks something; I believe that people making up for other's deficiencies is what makes for good teamwork.

    Open minded
    I’m open to new perspectives, ideas and opinions.
    Having a receptive mind helps seeing the factors that contribute to a problem. I make sure to respect everyone’s view and consider the possibility that I’m wrong or may change my perspective. For example whenever an argument arises between two people and they express their differences I don’t pick sides; it’s natural for people to have contradicting opinions. I listen to everyone’s perspective and hold no prejudice doing so.

    Problem-solving
    What I do as a student is finding solutions to difficult or complex issues.
    In practice it’s mostly technical; I write algorithms in various coding languages for tasks such as sorting numbers, winning tic-tac-toe, navigation (like google maps), DNA matching and natural language processing. In my free time I use some techniques I learn in minecraft for many things redstone related but also command block creations and customized singleplayer maps, and I recently got into creating minecraft plugins. In short I’m a little technical and as a moderator I can help in various areas regarding troubleshooting or playtesting plugins, warps and other server related features.

    Do you meet all the requirements for staff?
    Yes

    Adrian is a very kind and mature player, many times I've gotten assistance ingame from him with things like redstone, whether or not those mechanics turned out to be suitable or not, it demonstrated his ability to be helpful and knowledgeable. I have no doubt at all that Adrian would perform well under pressure and would become a key member of the staff team.

    100% support!
    • You're helpful on all the SB platforms and have a good understanding of the server!
    • You decently help out on Discord, it could improve a bit but it's fine right now!
    • You're approachable, kind and friendly! Love those traits in a person.
    • Your fluency in Dutch is also a good asset because I notice a lot of troublemakers sometimes break chat rules in Dutch and I've seen it a lot. It would definitely be beneficial!
    Good luck with your application! Would love to see you as a Helper :heartface:

    Honestly speaking, Adrian is one the nicest and most helpful players I've met during my time on Skyblock. There have been multiple situations where he gave me a helping hand with things I needed assistance with. With that, he's also extremely kind and friendly, and it's very fun talking to him over chat in-game.

    I've seen Adrian aid numerous players without ever wanting anything in return. His actions are always genuine as I believe that's just his character, and he is extremely mature and understands right from wrong, as well as the appropriate ways to handle situations.

    I definitely believe that Adrian fits every criteria there is when it comes to being a helper, and I truly think he is a very great candidate for the position. I'm glad he has decided to go ahead and apply as I do think he could be extremely beneficial towards the staff team.

    Best of luck Adrian!

    Adrian has my full support.

    I've known Adrian for a while now and I can only say great things about him. He's very involved in the community, fully understands the server and its mechanics, and is very kind and helpful. I've seen him helping out on numerous occasions and he is always very informative. You've proven to me that you're mature and well spoken which are both important attributes to be a staff member.

    The only few things I would say is become a bit more active in the discord, which is something a few other people have already mentioned. Discord is great way to connect to people outside of the game, so I'd love to see you there. Your balance between time spent on Eco and Survival is fantastic, so keep that up! That's all I have to say for now,
    best of luck Adrian! : )

    First off support :D

    Whenever I see Adrian in-game and on discord, he is very friendly and overall just a nice person to talk to. I have had issues in the past that he has helped me with and he is a good friend to me. One thing I can give as a tip is just to be a little bit more active in-game I'm not sure if it has to do with time differences but I feel as I don't see you on very much anymore. However, that will not affect my opinion and I think it would be great to see you as part of the staff team. Good luck adrian.

    You guys' support means a lot to me :>
    I appreciate your kind feedback! I know I'm not always as active but that's student life :') I've been on more than usual this week so perhaps we don't share an ideal time zone. Even so I do hope you'll be able to see me more often

    Support.

    Would be great to have someone with a specialty in game mechanics and redstone skills. Activity on all the platforms to me doesn’t really matter, you play and you put in the effort and that’s all that matters

    Adrian you have my full support, you have got to be one of the most helpful people on the server! The staff team could really use someone like you who also knows his ways around redstone and minecraft mechanics! Full support.
