    Neutral, I’m not on the actual game very much right now and I’m abroad anyway but from what I’m aware you’re active on eco and that’s great, we always need more eco staff. But I don’t see you very active on discord or forums which is where I’m on mostly right now, but you seem pretty chill and reasonable, so if you bump your activity up across those servers (which is expected for staff applicants) I don’t see why :neutral: can’t turn into :support:

    See you round :)

    Cheers MrEPro.

    I will be working on my forums and discord activities.

    Really appreciate the feedback and hopefully turn you to a full support soon.

    Hey dawg I think some more eco main staff members would be great, but I don't think you're a great fit! When I was active on eco you and Kitty713 were very active (and chatted a lot), but I remember a lot of those messages being fairly negative. I never saw you say anything positive OR helpful in chat.

    I think your responses to the no support comments you've received are a good example of why I don't think you're a good fit for the team :)! You should try being a nicer person and learn from all feedback!

    Thank you for your feedback SuperCoolWimp.

    I believe that the responses I have made so far to support and no support are transparent and answered the questions asked. I believe I am being very open and honest in my responses to questions given.

    I will agree that in some past server interactions there have been moments where I have had issues with players as most if not all players have had at some point in there server playtime. This happens and we can all agree to disagree on that front.

    I don’t know when you were last active on eco but in more resent times I engage with new players and try to help them with questions farms commands etc.

    Again I appreciate the feedback and will work on how interactions have an effect on the wider community.

    Naturally, no one is perfect, but you would show a huge maturity and humility being able to apologize for past actions, instead of completely dismissing them. I'll vote neutral as I've never interacted or seen(?) 0blivion before(as I only play skyblock server) and I would rather not judge someone off posts on a staff aplication, but if you feel like gaining my support feel free to jump into skyblock as well and interact around. :)

    Thankyou for the feedback.

    I do pop onto skyblock but definitely not as often as I could. I will try to make more of an effort to visit and see if I can get that neutral to a full support.

    Well-written application, sir! Looks like you have tons of prior-experience too, both in-game and in real life! I just don’t think I’ve personally interacted with you enough to give 100% support (As I’m not an Eco player). We have definitely spoken before though, and I’ve got nothing bad to say about our one or two interactions!

    My response was removed, Oblivion! I hope you got a chance to see it!!

    I wonder who it was.
    I wonder why they did it.
    Could the mod who removed it please contact me and explain to me why it was removed?
    Thx : )

    Well, he is to be primarily Eco staff, there's only so much jumping back and forth he should be expected to do. Also likely dismissal stems from the likelyhood that such event never happened. I wouldn't be afraid to own up for my own actions, but if baselessly slandered, i'll stand my ground. Principles are also very important for a staff member.

    While I do think eco needs more staff and in future you could be a good staff candidate given your previous server experience, I don't think this is the right time for you to apply, so I'm giving no support for now.

    The main reason for this is your interactions with specific players. I would expect a potential staff member to ignore and report provocations, however your responses in some of the situations seem intended to rile up the opposing party instead of de-escalating. Of course, I don't have the full context of every situation you have been in of this kind, but I do think you could make different choices to better fit with your statement:

    I'll also note that I do main skyblock, but I've been playing eco more over the past few months and haven't seen much from you. This is fine as I think we're normally active at different times, but it means that I don't have many personal interactions with you to contrast what I see elsewhere.

    All the best and I hope to see you around if I'm online at a different time from usual.

    On a personal level, great guy, easy to chat to, helps greenies and dedicates a lot of time to the server that does not go unnoticed

    My no support is due to the reasons stated by Jane and other eco players like SuperCoolWimp

    Just about every time I log on, there is a new ridiculous argument going on in economy chat, largely spearheaded by your partner, but unfortunately, you do get roped in, and this happens so regularly it's kind of just a meme on economy now to the player base

    Don't get me wrong, I think the people who start arguments with you are just as culpable. Still, until you learn not to participate in them and log off, you are not fit for the position of staff. Even a lot of the time, I am on your side in the argument, but it doesn't justify the argument in the first place.

    Work on these things and your problems you have with some of the other dedicated players on economy, and you have a decent shot at becoming mod, but this is a long road ahead and is not where you are at currently. Keep trying and give it another 3-6 months...

    :nosupport:No Support:nosupport:

    I don't think you are fit for being a staff member for a lot of reasons. First of all, I feel like you are quite argumentative. Around 40% of the time I see you in chat, there is an argument going on with you included. I can think of a few examples where you've started the argument however, most of the time, you just join the argument. Second of all, you and your wife team up and pretty much bully a person who will remain anonymous in this reply. I have talked to this person and they say that they have such a hard time because of you and your wife. Third of all, you are biased towards individuals. For example, you report the replies here that are non-supportive due to lack of proof however, the supportive replies that still lack proof are not reported. Fourth of all, you don't own up to specific negative things you have done in the past. I have never seen you own up to anything in specifc. To be fair, you do say that you have had bad moments in the past however, just saying that is too broad.

    Now, I will admit, you aren't the worst person on the server however, I just don't think you are fit for being a staff member. I have seen you do good in the community on a lot of aspects.

    P.S. This reply isn't meant to be mean or offensive. I am just voicing my opinion on the topic of you being a staff member.

    I want to start by saying that I genuinely think you, on your own, have potential. Without Kitty’s influence, you come across as a different person — more level-headed and capable of contributing positively to the server. I’ve seen moments where you’ve been helpful and supportive, and I don’t think you’re a bad person at all.

    That said, I don’t believe you’re fit to be a staff member right now, and there are several reasons for that.

    First, you often come across as argumentative. Roughly 40% of the time I see you in chat, there’s an argument going on, and you’re involved in it — whether you started it or jumped in. That kind of energy can create tension, which isn’t ideal for someone in a staff role.

    Second, you and your wife, Kitty, seem to team up and target a particular person on the server (who I’ll keep anonymous). I’ve spoken to this person, and they’ve shared how difficult and upsetting it’s been for them.

    Third, you show clear bias. You report replies that are critical of you for “lack of proof,” but you don’t do the same with supportive replies that also lack proof. That inconsistency is a red flag when it comes to fair moderation.

    Fourth, while you’ve acknowledged having “bad moments,” I’ve never seen you take accountability for specific actions. Without that, it’s hard to believe genuine growth is happening.

    Lastly — and this is important — I know you live with Kitty, and I’ve personally seen that she uses your account, votes with it, and at times seems to control it. She’s consistently negative toward the server, and I’m seriously concerned about account sharing. If you became staff and Kitty continued to act under your name, it could create confusion, drama, and damage trust.

    Again, this isn’t meant to tear you down. I know you’ve done good things here, and I think you could be a great contributor — just not as staff, not right now, and definitely not while this account situation continues.

    I would also like to point out that one of the clear rules for applying for staff is that the application must remain confidential and not be shared or discussed with anyone. However, within less than three (3) minutes of this application being submitted, a comment was already posted—either by you or by your wife on your behalf.

    To any staff reviewing this: please treat this as a potential breach of the application rules. It strongly suggests that either a response was being prepared in advance or that the application was submitted with coordinated support, which may be seen as an attempt to influence the process unfairly.

    For reference, I’ve attached two screenshots:

    1. A screenshot of the application rules clearly stating the confidentiality requirement.

    2. A screenshot showing the timing of the comment in relation to the application submission, highlighting the possible rule violation.

    Not defending anyone here.. but if someone is married they might live in the same house. I tell my wife everything. I know my wife loves to support me from the biggest to the smallest things I do.

    I see there is drama in the forum, but cut the man a break.

    That's all I got.

    Absolutely insane bogus take, lol. I think the rule is written in a clear way and you have a very bad faith interpretation of it. I mean if you read the rules it clearly states that you shouldn't advertise your application in the discord, forums, or in-game bro, I think that obviously is in place so that people don't go around posting their application and saying "PLZ support me" or "MODERATOR plz promtoe me ASAP i maked my application!", brother you rly need to ground urself if you think that rule was created for any other purpose. Seems like a really really really cope response to try to make Oblivion look bad, but it really only makes you look bad lol.

    The rule you reference here refers to actively sharing the link of the posted application in places that aren't listed. Not sharing the application prior to posting. There's no rules against sharing the application prior to posting, and a lot of applicants typically do that for grammar checks, opinions, or other comments (like formatting might be off). If the rule was against sharing applications prior to posting, it would be worded as "Please do not share your application with others before you post it", or something similar.
