    Apart from the spelling because of dyslexia, it looks pretty good. Maybe add background/longer history if you choose to.

    Things to correct:

    You can just say no for this. It just wants to know if you have been banned on skyblock :p.

    This is a confusing homophone I know, but the correct spelling is by* (just so you don't get a bad spelling rate).

    For the "How long can you be active on the server?" make it a table, for example:
    Monday 6pm-9pm
    Tuesday 7pm-8pm
    etc...(try be on at least 2 hrs a day)

    Okay so for now I am going to give you 60% support :p

    Here are my reasons:
    1)The colour will irrate people slightly, so get rid or it. Just have it black and the titles in bold/underlined.
    2)Don't write everything in bullet points! Just have reasonably sized paragraphs or sentences. for example change this:

    To something like this:

    3) Possibly add more to this ^^ section as well, and go deep into why you are passionate about becoming a moderator, and what the job of a moderator is exactly.
    4)I really like your enthusiasm and believe you are a very kind person, but you also might need to include how you will enforce the rules.
    5)You seem like you know what it takes, but you might need to add more to express that you do :D!!

    I really like you, and you seem really kind! Also I have a dyslexic friend in my year and she is awesome :p.

    Best of luck, and also please take this into consideration to fully show your potential :D ~

    You cannot buy horse eggs at warp trade (the 1st picture you posted ):p

    Other than that (and obviously the spelling) you seem like a wonderful person. I understand you have a good reason for the spelling errors, and I'm glad to see that you did your best anyway;).

    WHY IS MY ADBLOCK PLUGIN NOT STOPPING THIS POPUP- oh it's a Moderator application?! This is going to be amazing to read.

    Right off the bat: Remove your screenshots. Nothing in them is helping you on this application. Also: That wall of images is making me want to stab my browser with a knife forged with the sharpest Edge that Microsoft can make.

    Let's get this rolling like Limp Bizkit.

    Make this section vanish, David Blaine. Not helping you and this is actively making people want to throw toilet paper at your house.

    Now THAT is a level of enthusiasm you do not see outside of a methamphetamine clinic. Your smiley-to-text ratio is simply outstanding, you may want to cut back on that a little before a random cheerleader group adopts you as a mascot.

    You are also duplicating information the template will ask you, most of this section is not needed.

    May I call you "Etsy"? Awesome. My dear enthusiastic Etsy I need to point out the question is "What is your in-game name?". The answer is: xXEmeraldDaveXx. Skip the biography, you have more triple-X theme going on than Vin Diesel's film career.

    +1 for getting the "timezone" question correct. An amazing amount of people blow this one like Chernobyl.

    +1 again, concise and to the point. Your introduction was a Las Vegas-themed horror show but the rest of this application seems to be shaping up, sir.

    Cool story, bro. REMOVE THE SECOND LINE. No-one cares about bans on a different server, sir. Admitting to a history of foul play only hurts your application. There are no prizes for naked, weeping honesty.

    WAIT. Let me get another drink. This is going to be more fabulous than a crossdressing Mardi Gras parade and I want to be prepared.

    Alright, proceed.
    Your capitalization is giving me grammatical seizures. Review your entire application, watch the capitalization and put in some apostrophes for the love of crippled kittens.

    This is actually quite impressive. You have played here four years without a single ban? Your island must be absolutely insane, would you mind if I visited and took some pictures?

    I see we've jumped straight to the "wish fulfillment" portion of the application. Reword this to explain that you're tired of seeing spam and would like to be able to clean it up.

    This does not require Moderator powers. Remove, not helping your application.

    Is your name "Wikipedia"? If not then please move this down the "Do you have experience?" section.

    I dated a nice lady named "Patience" once. Her last name wasn't "People" though, for just a moment we almost had a beautiful reunion going on here.

    What's that? "Off topic, doesn't belong in an application"? Completely agree.

    Everyone lists this, sir. Constantly talking about how incredibly honest and mature you are tends to have the opposite affect: Everyone thinks anyone that has to talk about this can't really be honest (or mature).

    Just reading your application and seeing how you respond to critique pretty much says all we need to know about your maturity level, sir.

    DOES NOT REQUIRE MODERATOR to do this. Second time pointing this out, sir.

    Helping does not require Moderator status. Third time pointing this out, reword or find a better qualification, sir.

    Additionally "approachable and friendly" isn't a sought-after administrative talent. Vicious adherence to rules and brutal unbiased application of punishment are pretty much the defining traits.

    Rewrite this to explain why anyone cares. Example: "I am very organized and keep records of all punishments. That way I can follow up or disprove a complaint immediately."

    Excessively talking about how trustworthy you are makes you seem like a liar. This is the second time you've listed something like "honest, mature, trustworthy", sir. We assume you are, taking time out to talk about just how totally OMG honest you are at this will only hurt your application. Remove all of those sections.

    You're a teenager playing a video game and looking for recognition from your peers. Your "weird" level is approximately ZERO PERCENT. Remove this "qualification".

    This is a very realistic schedule. +1. Your spelling is atrocious-- what the heck is "deepens"??-- but you make a good point that no-one can be on all the time. Not my call whether or not 9 hours per week is going to be enough.

    Did you kill them? Not accusing, just asking sir.


    This is not part of the template. But why not, let's give it a read.

    Oh wow, I am toatally dysexlic aslo! (true story) Your spelling is mostly fine, but your capitalization is a level of horrifying I can only describe as "compulsive mannequin mutilation". Having dyslexia does not excuse you from forgetting to capitalize your "I", that's just lazy textspeech behavior. Correct it, please.

    -FANGIRL SCREAM-

    Remove this section. This self-promotion is more blatant than tattooing your own name across your chest.

    SIGN ME UP FOR THAT PRIVATE MASSAGE.

    There may be a few minor adjustments, sir. Or just totally ignore this, my opinion means absolutely nothing. Good luck either way, sir.

    You are quite welcome, that was very educational.

    Just needs some cleanup and a couple sections removed. Or completely ignore me, my opinions mean nothing. If everyone else likes your application, why make edits?

    Quite willing to talk to you about any of this, sir. Either PM or in-game (if I can catch you on). When can I get that private massage...?
