Which timezone are you in?

Well, this depends. for 26.89% of the year (as of my own personal census of the year 2012), I live in Florida, which is in the Eastern Time Zone (UTC-5:00) of the United States of America. For the other 73.11% of the year I live in Colorado (Mountain time zone; UTC-7:00). I live in the U.S.A. in case you missed that clue.

Which languages do you speak?

I speak English. Yes. I do. Precisely. I know some German and I am learning Spanish (I am learning it in school, even though the class moves at a snails pace). I am an expert at this magically wonderful tool called Google Translate, and have actually BEFRIENDED people from four different languages on Skyblock alone.

Have you ever been banned? (if yes, why?)

Of course. Do you expect a possible future moderator to not be banned? I've experimented with more than 10 ways to get banned (9 successful. These include: griefing, spamming, illegal trading, bad language, threats, insults, claiming I am a "hacker", stealing, and scamming,), and you may count me down for this. Or should you? I know how to get banned or kicked, and that's just what you need. I am the expert (of course, I've only done this with my friends. I'm actually a nice guy inside, and I really don't want to harm other players' orders of operation).

Why do you think you should be a mod?

Why? Well, I have awesome leadership skills, I have been loyal to your server for more than a year now, and unlike ANY OF THE MODS I will actually take a person's opinion, and turn it into an action (not to be rude, sorry). If someone reports scamming, I WILL INVESTIGATE UNTIL THE RIGHT ACTIONS ARE TAKEN. You know what would be nice? I love your server and all, but I could help organize the ultimate moderator online time schedule for you, so that no matter what, there will be a mod online.

Here's my proposition:

Mods can get so-called "points" for the amount of time they participate on the server. If points get to low, an automatic message will get sent to them when they log on warning them of possible revocation. But how to keep them on? Well, I propose the idea of payment in the form of...let's say...DIAMONDS??? More on this later. Is there already this system? Well, there's hardly ever any mods on...


I am a lot of characteristics you want. Loyalty, Participation, etc. I am those qualities. I hope you consider that I am very strict and straightforward. I hope this is a characteristic you desire.

I also possess the ability to be aware, and I will attempt to be all I can to increase awareness of illegal operations. There's too much "bad" going on. I also work very well together with others, as a [good] moderator needs. You know what? I've had no way to stop (besides reporting, which I do) any undesirable actions going on, and I promise whoever is reading this, that I can make this awesome server even more awesome.
You know what is important (besides participation, awareness, rule-following, loyalty, leadership, creativity, and taking proper, aggressive actions)? WANTING to be a moderator. I don't want to be a moderator for the sake of telling my friends "I'm better than you! Ha ha ha!" No, I want to help this server, make it a better, a more fun place, while participating in vast quantities to show my loyalty. I am Bucket105.



How long can you be active on the server every day?

Oh yeah, I go on an hour or two a day now. You see, when in Colorado during the school week, that's about right. Over weekends, maybe more. Although, when I live in Florida, I can be on for 6+ hours A DAY. Also, I know the gaps between the time moderators "take a break" and blow people off. I've discovered that the time (during the U.S. daytime) when the least moderators are on is 12:30 P.M. I've gotten away with many kicks and bans during that time (I want to fix this!).


Do you have any past experience as a moderator?

Well, sort of. I own a "server" and I am an admin on a friend's server. LET'S GET TO THE POINT! MODERATORS REQUIRE LEADERSHIP! I am a student council member at my school, I lead a club with a friend, and I AM AN EXPERT AT MANIPULATING AND DIRECTING OPERATIONS AS TO THEY GO PROPERLY! I would like to see how becoming a moderator can be. If I can learn to help as much as I can.



NOTE: I do not want to be rude to your server representatives and/or you, if my comments suggested so.

 

I don't support applicants very often. Not to say I almost never.
I actually enjoyed reading your application! Though it isn't the longest application out there, it definitely is well-written, detailed, and straightforward. Try to work on formal writing, however.
I would be surprised if you wouldn't get the job sooner or later. You're definitely the right guy for it.

 

Although your application is very good, just make sure you stay dedicated to an extent on the forums Because you are a new member here, and we need experienced people in game & on the forums as they are equally important for a moderator. Just wait this part out.

Now for your little proposition, although it is neat for mods to get rich on diamonds for being active, it seems like bribery in a way. Because although diamonds are a nice touch, it would feel like if this was carried out that people would try to get mod for perks, and even though it's a cool way for activity motivation, it's a mods duties to moderate the players. They should be active anyway or they would not have that prefix for long. After all, it is what they applied for. Isn't it?
Also your proposition is sorta off topic to your application.

goood luck xx

 

Good points. I do agree that it would kind of be bribery with the whole diamonds proposition.

 

I would not want to make it sound like I am benefiting moderators or possibly myself.

 

The whole diamonds/points proposition thing's somewhat off-topic, but other than that, the content of your application's written alright. Try not to use all-capital sentences, as they may seem immature. Other than that, just be more detailed in the 'Why' section & you should be good. (Maybe add some colour too~ )

However, your activity on the forums is quite poor (Considering you're new, I hope you get active from now on though~). I haven't seen you in-game either...so..I'll go with 60% support for now. Work on these & I'll reconsider fully supporting~! Good luck!

 

10% support. I have never seen you before but you sound ok.

 

I don't fully support you yet because you are pretty new to the forums and I have not seen you in game very much. So I will just wait and see what happens before I go full support or no support.

The diamond idea I have to disagree with. Mods become mods and are active because the love what they are doing. Not because of freebies. But I like the fact you had the courage to submit an idea. Keep it up
