    This is my Re-Application. I know I have done some dumb things that I really regret but I address them below and apologize in advance. Hope you enjoy :)

    Aside from that, I am a 13 yr old boy from New York (United States) who enjoys playing minecraft and other video games. Overall I just like to have fun and I hate when people try and take away that experience from others. For that reason, I am applying for Moderator.
    Also a little note for Cyp: If you're reading this, know that I've been in this community for over 2 years. I was mod for over 1 year. Its been about 1 year since my demotion. Yet I'm still this desperate to have my position back (look at the edit list of this app)I hope you notice my dedication to this community.

    Your in-game name: TimePlaysGames, but you can call me Matt

    Which timezone are you in? EST (Eastern Standard Time)

    Which languages do you speak? English, Spanish, and Google Translate if needed.

    Have you ever been banned? (if yes, why?) I have been banned twice; Once for a misunderstanding a long time ago (early 2014) and once for my demotion. I have also been banned on Teamspeak for harassing a Moderator. I feel like the Teamspeak ban was the most significant because I demonstrated how immature, hostile, and just rude I can be. I feel like I have learned from what I have done and corrected my behavior for the future. I am older now and I can promise that I will never do any of the stuff that I have been punished for, especially when holding such a high responsibility of being a Moderator.

    Why do you think you should be a mod? I think I should be a Moderator mainly because I have improved alot. I like to think that during my time as a Moderator, I did a good job. When I was active I was respected and I think I helped the community in the small ways that I could. If I did actually do a good job as a Moderator, I strongly believe that I will be much better at my role.​
    • I have improved my temper. I don't see myself lashing out at any players and/or staff. During my time as a Moderator that was one of the things that I needed to learn to control. Now I am confident that I wont lose my temper. After all, I'm dealing with people on the internet that I don't even know personally. Why get mad?
    • I have improved my social skills. Being nice with people and learning to deal with problems is one of the main parts of being a Moderator. Throughout the entire day, people will be asking question after question and creating appeals. Dealing with those in a friendly and professional matter is crucial for helping people and being respected.
    • I have become smarter. I will always do stupid things considering I'm 13. But showing that I can be a little bit smart will show people that I know what I'm doing. And let's just face it, nobody wants help from a dumb mod.
    • I have gained more experience. After being a mod for over a year, I've pretty-much experienced everything. That means that I will be able to handle almost every situation professionally and confidently. And I can answer any question thrown at me.
    All of these improvements show that I can be even better then before. There are some more reasons that I should be a Moderator aswell. I can be very active (considering It's the summer), I know how to use most of the plugins and Moderator tools to my advantage, I know how to use all of the Moderation tools on the forums, and I can be on the forums pretty much all day. Here is some more reasons I should be promoted.
    1. I'm very patient with people who need help. I obviously won't get upset at someone who needs help, and I will take all the time they need to explain to them.​
    2. I don't take anything personally. I'm not going to go off on some random over the internet. I've learned to control my temper.​
    3. I know how to deal with ban appeals. This is something I feel the current staff need help with. I'm strict in my appeals, but I don't deny every appeal that comes to me. I believe appeals are one of my main benefits.​
    4. I know how to work with the negative. There's been many people in the community that have been known to be "bad" and for the most part I have never had a problem with any of them. In fact, I consider myself friends with them.​
    5. I am drama free. HUGE problem with the current staff. I swear it's really freaking annoying with all the stupid staff/player drama. It's a minecraft server, grow up.​
    6. I don't target players. This also has to do with being drama free. I'm not going to try and get a specific player banned if they don't deserve it.​
    7. I am extremely fair with my bans. If someone is obviously malicious and keeps getting banned to try and find loopholes, why would I have them unbanned? Why would I keep them unbanned, but perm ban the non-donor for ruining someone's crops?​
    8. I am very active now. I'm usually on teamspeak all day and playing .net during that time.​
    9. I am really really really active on forums. I love using the forums because it's a great way to communicate with people. I can always be on to deal with spambots, rule-breakers, ban appeals, etc. I also am very familiar with particular sections (that only special people have access to ;)) and know how/when to lock, archive, delete, ban, warn, etc.​
    10. I consider myself an extrovert. I'm not shy around players and I'm very eager to chat with and help players whenever needed. I think this is a good quality to have so people can trust me as a moderator and so I can help as many people as possible. In the time I was a Moderator I gained lots of friends and personal relationships (you can tell by the people who support this application :p) this proves how this could be a helpful quality in the long run.​

    How long can you be active on the server every day? As said above I can be very active since It's the summer. I would say 2-3+ hours per day. Of course, there's vacation and some days that I really want to Moderate and some days I want to take a break. but overall I can be (and I am) active. I don't really want to do one of those "active timelines" because I know that my hours aren't always certain. I can never guarantee my hours for one particular day. I can provide a general time, however.

    Also considering there's no logblock (or grief, mostly) I can always be watching the chat with minechat when I can't be active on my pc :)

    Do you have any past experience as a moderator? Nope, sorry. :t Yes; I have been Moderator on skyblock.net, Admin on a different server and hosted my own private server. Biggest server being skyblock of course.

    Thank you for reading my application! :> This is literally a dream of mine. If you know of any ways I can improve it please comment below. If you support/don't support please explain why. Cya!
    Edits:

    1. I guess I forgot to address this earlier. I'll definitely try to be more active as a player. But to be fair there isn't much keeping me active on the server. I don't work on my island or do any trades. I will be active to do my best helping as a normal player, however.
    2. I'm now active (and have been for a while) :>

    Activity of course. Just seeing you on helping out in chat would be good.
    Other than that, I support. You were great.

    Support,
    Yeah you've been banned. You deserve a second chance. You seem really mature.
    I don't see you on a lot though. {Time Zones Maybe}.
    Good Luck!

    Thank you all for the support :heart: Means alot after all the stuff I've done.

    Also, activity seems to be a common criticism on this thread and I understand that I haven't been active. I have definitely been trying but it isn't the biggest goal for me. Being active as a donor and being active as a mod dont have the same impact in my eyes. Trust me if I do get promoted I will be active since it is a responsibility.
