    Welcome to my application!
    Heya, Welcome! I feel like I am ready to apply again because I just feel ready, I got active member and 500+ post count on the forums, and I got Loyal Member on Discord! :) But, Before I start, let me say this: I have made other applications in the past that were extermely bad and immature -- people thought they were jokes. (Seriously...) I have learned from those and have matured in time and age, and overtime got better from those. I also took
    a reasonable couple weeks away from skyblock/Minecraft because I was thinking to much about it, but now I have been back for about a month now and I think I am good. :)

    ---------------------------------------------------------
    Your in-game name:
    My in-game name (IGN) is Splat1221 and I do not plan on changing it any time soon. Splat1221 is also my usual nick.
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    What time zone are you in?
    My time zone is Eastern Standard Time. (EST)
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    What country do you live in?
    The USA. (North America)

    ---------------------------------------------------------
    What languages do you speak?
    I can speak and write English as my first language, though my spelling is not always the bes.
    I can speak and write spanish pretty well, and I am still learning more.

    Then I know basic hebrew, but very little.
    And I can also use google translate if I need too. (I have an app
    on my computer, I have Seri, and an Alexi.)
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    Do you have 2FA enabled? Yes/No
    Yes, I do. I also have Two Factor Authorization on my email so it’s double secure.
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    Do you have the necessary means of capturing evidence? (i.e. recording software, screenshots, etc)

    I have F2 and my phone to take pictures/screenshots and I have F9 set to record my screen as long as I have my recording softwere "Action,"
    and just in case I also have OBS, and Filmora. And... just to be extra sure I can record... I have my phone. :)
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    Why do you think you should be a mod/helper?
    I would like the position of Helper to signal other players that they can come to me for help. I can be pretty active on all skyblock platforms to
    help people whenever and for whatever they need.
    Some characteristics I believe I have are...

    Helpful-
    Lets say someone needs help -- Moving a spawner; building; changing a spawner; asking a command like, “How do I leave Ma J?” ... I will help!
    If a question thread comes up or someone has a question/needs help on Discord, etc; I will help.

    Kind-
    When someone achieves something like a goal in a game, a life goal, etc; I always congratulate them.
    Example 1: When someone wins the typing game, (skychat) I always say, “gg,” representing Good Game to congratulate them.
    Example 2: If someone shows me a new skin they made, I would say it’s awesome and congratulate them because every skin is a piece of art.

    Fast typist-
    I am a fast typist and can answer a lot of questions/resolve a lot of problems quickly. Unfortunately, my computer does not self correct so I can make typing errors when I am typing really fast and fast or if I am not looking at my key board.

    Mature-
    I am mature. You might say; “You got banned for greifing! How is that mature?” It is not.
    I have learned my lesson for sure. I have done some stupid things. I get it now since I have also been the victim. It makes you realize the impact you can have on others and it is not worth doing things that hurt others to get ahead!
    Funny-
    I know how to make people laugh and feel better if they are sad; I always make sure to censor my jokes when necessary,
    and not go overboard and make a player feel bad.

    Fast Learner-
    I am a fast learner when it comes to new things, and I can easily adjust.

    Active-
    I am active on Discord, Forums, and Skyblock. This is good because I am on when other helpers are not.

    Experienced-
    I’m experienced in life and know how different situations feel, and how I can make them feel better. For example; Someone shares that a family member of their’s dies.I know how it feels, and I know how I can
    make the player feel better.
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    How active can you be on skyblock?
    2-4+ hours on weekdays when I have school, But right now I have a day camp so +1 hour online, and On the forums and discord I can add 30 minutes.
    3-5+ hours on weekends when I don't have school although sometimes Ill be offline for about an hour to have fun with my family. :)

    Other than that, I usually have discord open on my monitor when I am playing Minecraft or using my computer and I can be on the forums/discord when I am not on my computer, too.
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    Have you ever been banned in the forums/in-game?
    Yes, I have been banned as previously mentioned for greifing and that brings down the support (a lot). I griefed someone and
    it was not OK. I have learned from that and I know I will never do it again because it ruins other peoples fun.
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    Past experience as a mod?
    I do. Long story short I guess. A friend in real life started a small sever where I was an admin. About a year after,
    most players stopped playing and the sever went blank with a bunch of issues. Nobody even the owner
    was able to do anything and I resigned from my position. But... I was an admin/mod/co-owner/helper etc; and I do have a bunch of experience with this position.
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    Offline Communication
    And also as my offline communication I have the forums, (_Splat1221_) Discord, (Splat:heart:#4649)
    Thank you for your consideration! I wont disappoint you! (Please write you support and reasoning, thank you! I put a lot of time into my application :)))

    Hello splat, I think you should work on fixing your application's formation a tad to make it look and feel more professional.
    I will be sticking with neutral I have only seen you recently start playing again and you don't help out in chat a lot from what I can see. I will reconsider my status later
    Good luck :)

    Neutral leaning toward no support

    So splat nice to see that we are getting more applicants :) however I don’t think you’re ready yet you came back from a long break. I don’t see you helping as much as you maybe should. I also think that you’ve done some immature things, so when didn't want to eat on your restaurant you nagged me about it a couple of times, tp’ed me the to restaurant. Please remember all your actions as visual and think 1 extra time before you do what you do. However you’re very friendly and active just try to help more and try to be more mature, I know it’s hard sometimes.

    Good luck

    Please do not overcolour your application. If you want, colour the headlines a readable colour. Black is fine, making your entire application green or blue is horrible.

    Um that's not how that works ;)

    You can do this without staff.

    All in all, I think you're nice, however, whilst I was staff and even now, I don't think you'd necessarily be fit for the role. I can explain if you'd rather me go into detail, although I'm not sure there's a point, as I have nothing to say that could be considered helpful.

    No support. I haven't seen you on (despite my busy summer schedule) for a while and im on every day or so. When you hop on I don't really see you help out, but then again you might be helping in private messages so who knows.

    Forums and Discord activity wise I rarely see you on both overall.


    I think you should rewrite that as it is giving me a cringe attack on epic proportions bro lmao


    I am pretty sure being the fastest typist is not something you can be proud of, unless you're in a competition lol


    To be fair I learn a lot of new things despite my age lol but idk if that should be included in or not. Someone help me on this


    How many times did you greif? I think you also should remove this portion
    Not necessary if you ask me.


    Work on increasing your activity, and helping people out and ill give u a support :p

    No Support,

    The staff application template that you put in the middle makes it a bit horrible.

    You just came back from a long break and I haven't seen you on yet.

    Just a random jump between took and a? seems reasonable. Extremely*, by the way.
    I think I am good? You're going into applying without any confidence what so ever?
    Instead of making the words this big, try something with a more reasonable thing. Ex. Welcome to my application! Bold words, not big.
    Great, another big title. I'm pretty sure you didn't need to put (IGN) too.
    One - if you're gonna try to center stuff, do it right.
    Two - more unneeded abbreviations?
    And did you just call North America a country? because the question was country, not continent..
    Best*
    Spanish*
    Hebrew*
    Siri*
    Alexa*
    Google translate isn't reliable.
    Oh, and it's "I need to" not too. Too if you was to referring as you, like, "I want a piece of cake too!"
    It.. it isn't "double secure" if it's on your email..
    Your phone shouldn't be a recording/screenshot, use an actual recorder and screenshot. (Gyazo, Imgur, Bandicam, OBS.)
    Software*
    Why is action is quotation marks?
    Oh hey, look, another random jump right at the start!
    Helpful makes me cringe, but most of these 1-2 sentences too.
    You're using the fact on how you say gg as you're kind..? I can say "gg" but still can be a stuckup prick.
    Fast typist.. isn't that needed..? "really fast and fast". Unneeded words, took me a minute to understand what that meant.
    Mature, griefing is spelt wrong. your mature part has nothing to do about being mature, besides the first 3 words. "I am mature". Don't state that you are, convince us.
    Funny, you don't need to be funny..? "I always make sure to censor my jokes" Mods shouldn't have to censor anything because they shouldn't be making jokes that should be censored. Stop adding random jumps too, for the sake of our sanity.
    Fast learner - great, I am too, but that doesn't make me suddenly qualified to become a mod.
    Active - Uh, using other staffs activity in your favor makes you look immature. "I am active when other helpers are not" - For one, must I mention we have 2 lovely, delightful servers that some staff cycle through, or some are on vacation? Better yet, some might be in /vanish. Just because they aren't visible doesn't mean they aren't there.
    Experienced - Theirs* This really isn't about being experienced, it's more just boasting on how you can "make a player feel better"
    You don't need to explain the reason you're gonna be off. Why is on randomly capped? I'll* Other then* Than is used to compared. Example, I like chocolate more than vanilla. But then is the difference, like, other then that.
    Griefing and griefed* Random space? Unneeded comment, 'brings down the support a lot'. Glad you're accepting your mistakes and realizing they're long.
    Yes/I do would of been perfectly fine, listing your positions would of been okay.
    Example; Yes, I do have past experience. I was an admin on another server.
    We see your forums name. No need to quote it. The 'please write you support and reasoning, thank you! I put a lot of time into my application' part is unneeded. If you're gonna have this comment, please make it grammatically correct. 'Please write your support status with reasoning, thank you!" is perfectly okay, but better off not there at all.

    It also seems that half way through you almost just, gave up on your application.

    Fix the headings, add color, fix your application grammatically.

    No support.

    trin You don't need to Gordon Ramsay his app. The app itself may need a retouch in the quality of the content, but I could read though it easily. I think that comparing the content as to how it relates to his in-game behavior would not only be valuable to the applicant, but to the server too. I want to see new staff members, and if it takes criticism to reshape themselves, so be it, but busting down on only the application isn't really useful to anyone.

    _Splat1221_ , as for you, you could honestly tidy the app a bit but I want to see you in-game and actively helping others. For now all I see is you asking around for upgrades. Hopefully I see good change and would love to see you end up on the staff team. Cheers.
