    HeyItsRed
    Hello I'm Red and thank you for reading my application I hope its good!. Anyhow I've been on and off moderating Different games and Minecraft for a while now and have matured and grown over time. I've gotten to know the community a lot over these 5 years I've been here. Most players I have known have come and gone and I've come to accept this. Although they will be missed. If you want to know more about me, Here's my introduction
    Red's Re-Introduction | Skyblock Forums


    Your in-game name:

    HeyItsRed (I don't plan on changing it anytime soon).


    What time zone are you in?

    Central Daylight Time.


    What country do you live in?

    I live in the United State Of America


    What languages do you speak?

    Fluent English, Basic Spanish, Basic German.


    Do you have 2FA enabled? Yes/No

    Yes

    Do you have the necessary means of capturing evidence? (i.e. recording software, screenshots, etc)

    I have Bandicam, OBS and Windows' snipping tool

    Why do you think you should become a Helper?

    Cooperation - I can easily make friends and work with other people and in some situations this is key. Even when I don't I keep it professional.

    Helpful - I try to help anytime I can and anyone I can. This is mainly on economy due to the lack of moderation But I try to vary.

    Concentrated - I'm able to focus on one thing at a time and not try to take it all on at once and get it done.

    Determined - When I put my mind to something I'm able to get something done quick and efficiently and quite well.

    Responsible - When I am left alone I can normally handle things on my own; Like how I make myself dinner, put myself to sleep, wake myself up, Etc. Etc.

    Kind - I am generally nice to players old and new. I feel like every rank is equal and don't condescend over other players.

    Approachable - People can come to me in an urgent manner and I'll be there within seconds. Also if someone needs help they wont be hesitant to come to me or second guess it.

    Equal - I make sure things aren't biased or one side gets more then the other. Its more of a perfectionist thing then anything but a redeeming quality nonetheless.








    How long can you be active on the server everyday?
    Around 2-4 hours everyday.

    How long have you been playing Skyblock?

    Since August 2013, or around that time.


    Have you ever been banned in the past? (Forums & In-game)

    Yes.


    Do you have any Past experience as a moderator?

    I used to be a Super-admin, Senior Admin, Staff Manager, and Co-Owner, on another server I was Admin, and on a server for Garry's Mod I was Senior Admin as well.

    Do you meet the requirements for staff? Yes/No

    Thankfully Yes!

    Hey red, Thanks for applying. I don't think you're ready at the moment, as I rarely see you in game, and when I do see you in game, you're often not helping. I don't think I've seen you in the discord or forums much at all and I simply think that you need a lot of improvement. You're a great guy and I'd love to see more dedication. For now, I'm going to say no support :)

    This isn’t necessary.
    I don’t think you’re very active in game and you don’t have a large forums presence.

    Not putting a lot of effort into this response as it is quite late at night for me and I'm not really a part of the skyblock community currently. Might edit later with a more in-depth response.

    stance: Neutral

    Be more confident, don't start your application talking about how 'bad' it is, because that not only shows a lot about you as a person but also puts the idea in the head of the person reading the application that it will be bad before they've even read it. Also try to stay on topic and refrain from giving irrelevant information or needless detail (e.g stating that you have access to a built in feature to minecraft, a simple response of 'yes' is needed'). It will seem like I'm contradicting myself here but also try to add more detail about why you actually think you should become mod rather than listing basic qualities you have that are pretty much a norm. The people who decide whether or not your application will be accepted aren't going to go out of their way to contact someone who you supposedly moderated for previously, and take their word that you suit this position, they want evidence of it from you working on skyblock itself and being active as a member of the discord and forum community. I can't comment on your activity as as I've previously stated, I don't play on the server anymore, however from other's comments here, you need to improve on that, or atleast your responsiveness to those needing help on the server itself.

    All in all, if you take anything away from my response then my job will be done. I wish you luck in your journey towards becoming a member of the staff team, and hope you can become the best you can be.

    EDIT:
    Your grammar here and elsewhere in your application is lacking, try to improve on that before applying as you are trying to show those deciding what happens to your application that you are best applicant for the position of mod, having clumsy punctuation and spelling + vocabulary on your application suggests lack of care/effort put into your application. Also, your response to oak shows immaturity and that you are not heeding his advice.

    Neutral. I would highly recommend you add more on Why you should be a mod? section, in my opinion it is not much. Your in-game activity needs to be improved upon but I do see you sometimes which is good, least better than nothing.

    Discord you are fairly active, though I mainly see you in the meme channel quite a lot.

    Forums I think you're alright maybe improve the activity a little more

    I agree your application needs more too it
    I don’t think your self confident as at the top you stated “this dumpster fire of an application” I believe all staff members should have self confidence. They need it to know when to make certain decisions how how to make them I ASAP think your activity on forums can improve I don’t see you around much here or in discord and when I see you in game your almost always on economy I think you should balance your server choice a bit better and help out in chat more

    Overall I just don’t think your ready you aren’t too professional and I don’t think you have the responsibilities of becoming a staff member
    Neutral
    Good luck :)

    If you're not going to have confidence in yourself, I doubt anyone would have confidence in you.

    Now, as for your application... I don't mind short applications, but this looks extremely effortless and lackluster. I know getting straight to the point is good and all... but idk, it feels lackluster. I don't want to be rude, but I agree with you on this being a dumpster. Look up above and listen to other people's feedback, and change your application in the appropriate ways needed.

    Like another user said earlier, this isn't needed. You can be respectful without formalities, sir. I understand everyone has their own ways of showing respect, and as cute as this is, I really feel your application wouldn't change if you had this or not. What I'm saying is that it was pointless having this. Brownie points tho!

    I think this is quite blunt in my opinion. Bluntness is good, but also has many flaws. Like, this looks rude even though I know you didn't mean to come off as rude, especially since I'm 99% sure the user didn't mean to promote themselves on your application.

    Tbh that's amazing and all, but spend more time on the other servers too where there are more users playing. You'll be noticed more there, trust me.

    Okay, overall though I'm giving you no support. I do think it's cool that you want to be a moderator and help out, but I think I speak for many others when I say that you're definitely not ready.

    Its basically a hell hole of helping on skyblock, the helpers helping the mods helping the players helping the applicants helping like just the other day ago i asked someone if they needed cobble and i went to there island some other applicant was already there giving them cobble.

    In economy everything is quiet and there is barely any applicants or mods its like the wild west in /skyblock in the sense that everyone is trying to help eachother and its hard but in economy its so casual and everyone knows eachother. its a tight community


    And sorry AncientOak if i came out rude it wasnt intended

    And at the beginning About the dumpster fire its just a harmless joke poking fun at my previous applications that were sloppy and horribly written



    So honestly if you want to really see helpfulness ask anyone on economy and they'll likely know my name besides maybe timezone differences everyone knows me there and thats where i help out most i know i need to vary on skyblock and economy but skyblock is such a war zone that its impossible for anyone to help someone although on later hours during the week days so that there isnt much competition





    also nice glee Gif

    Doesn't you qualify as a helper bc you do that

    Also, the hours you have put are way to high and you won't be able to keep up with that *say you do or dont*, but being honest mods to put 3 hours everyday only really play 3 hours a week so yeah

    No support.

    Okay interesting, but referring to this as a "hellhole", no matter how true the statement might be, this is something that uou should keep to yourself
