    It's been a long day. Forgot to stock enough alcohol for the weekend, work is calling during off-duty time and my kid washed the car with a spray bottle full of bleach. A truly good person wouldn't take it out on someone else... but if the internet wasn't meant to be my personal Whac-A-Mole then how come I can register on the forum without a credit card?

    Buckle up, buttercup. It's gonna be bumpy.

    Get to the shelter.

    The effort required to reformat your application into a review was soul wrecking. A blind man masturbating to a magazine would have handled business quicker; I actually qualified for retirement while removing all of those codes.

    Twenty-eight <center> tags, fifteen <indent> markers, more <color> tags than Prince's obituary-- honestly I gave up for an hour and watched a couple reaction videos to calm down. God bless YouTube for incredibly inane content. This might be just me, though.

    Moving right along.

    o_O? "Even if we have had a slip up"? My Spidey sense is already going insane after four short sentences. Is this going to turn into some sort of mashup between passive aggressive bashing and an application? An applibashing?

    CalledIt.jpg

    This is a rotten food fight in the back of a slimy garbage truck. Get rid of it. How could you think starting a job application by slamming the current administration is a good idea? Talking about how Mods aren't there, people do not get help, etc: You do understand this is the group you want to join? They might remember you talking about how bad they are at this job.

    Flip this entire paragraph into a positive. "I come online but no mods are on" can easily become "I see a need for help and I think I can fill it". One of these statements avoids kneecapping your teammates.

    Dear God the real application hasn't begun yet. :facepalm:

    That nickname is missing more characters than a stuttering kid at a spelling bee. It's characterless in the actual, literal sense of the word. Missing capitalization, misspellings and a three word name all rolled together..? That is a three part sewage sandwich of sloppy proportions. If you put a random number on the end of that name your ISP would start adding a mandatory eugenics tax to your bill.

    I refuse to dignify your kitschy moniker by repeating it any more. I'm fixing this wall one failbrick at a time.

    Good time zone, with correct offset. +1 to you, sir.

    I absolutely must hear German spoken with an Australian accent. My life will be complete.

    I am more prepared than Sovereign citizen with a backyard bunker full of toilet paper and guns. Bring it.

    ShotsFiredBattleship.jpg
    whooosh! booom! failcoming!

    So now there will be three Australian mods who are preoccupied and inactive? Just repeating what you said, Mr. Assassin-- feels bad when someone else does it to you, right?

    Picture yourself on the current staff team. Now imagine hearing complaints that you are not doing enough for everyone. I don't know about you but my first reaction would be to laugh uncontrollably while making circular pumping motions with my free hand.

    Stop throwing crap at your future teammates. It's going to stick to you some day.

    After three paragraphs of pointing out Australian mods aren't online enough I am getting the feeling this "active" qualification might be a bit targeted.

    Not a bad starting qualification, Cassin. It is a bit circular in a "mod isn't active, people need help, inactive mod gives no help" kind of way: Can you put anything here about how you could personally fix that situation? Talk yourself up a bit, sparky. It's your application.

    +1, I like this. Add a line about why this is important, or just ignore me-- these reviews don't help or hurt your chances.

    AngryFace.jpg
    ARGH

    Do not disqualify yourself in your own qualification. The phrase "I am responsible; in the past I haven't been responsible" made me Google search the best way to amputate after a gunshot injury.

    You get zero points for brutal honesty in a job application. This is the place you write about the benefits of promoting you, how good the team would be, how your skills improve the community, etc. Leave out anything about how filthy your history is; if someone needs to know they will ask.

    Just to throw a Double Dare on this waterfall of taint drippings: "Responsible" is not something you can just claim to have. In fact the more you talk about being responsible the less people believe you. You need to give concrete examples here or it sounds like utter crap. Something like "I am responsible because..."
    ...I manage a day care with 14 kids for two hours a day.
    ...the head of my division trusts me to balance the quarterly books.
    ...my support group lets me run the AA meetings.
    ...the hamster in my room hasn't died in three years.
    ...I hold two part time jobs at the truck stop.​

    You have to show responsibility, not talk about it. Unless you can throw down the good stuff I'd recommend switching this section to something easier. Like "Timely".

    True. But... whyyyyyyyy!? How do you have patience? Why does this make the server better?

    Be honest: Are you one of those people that tries to make a sandwich but then just eats the ingredients raw? Sure it saves time, but something better could have come from putting it all together. This is not put together well.

    TableFlip.jpg
    The word is TYPIST. You are curb-stomping my pedantic soul. Every time "I am a fast typer" shows up I know for a fact someone just ignored their auto-correct and their third grade English teacher.

    +1 for giving a useful and extremely specific example regarding nick abuse. Just curious: Can't Moderators simply see the commands being entered? I may be wrong about this but when someone types "/nick ConTheWrong" doesn't that show up on a Mod's screen somewhere?

    Would it be better to read faster than to be able to type quickly?

    Started out well, but then you mashed up "response time" with your "dedication". A bit muddled there, sir. Can you untangle these into separate qualifications?


    Spell check would not have helped there, you need to read it out loud. Free pass on that mistake.

    Not a free pass: My God man, would you like a spare baseball bat? You are beating this "afk mod" thing to death. You really can't get this topic off your mind-- did an inactive staff member cause your parents to die or something? Are you Batmod?! o_O

    Hours look good, +1 to you.

    Good job on avoiding unnecessary details. +1.

    +1 for not mentioning inactive Moderators.
    +2(!) for actually stating what you did on the job. Nicely done!


    You are quite welcome, Mr. TheAssassin. I really have to ask: Did you write this entire application because someone wasn't online when you needed them? You didn't spend a lot of time listing good traits about yourself but holy Christ did you bring up inactive Mods a lot. o_O It felt like that particular issue was your personal Crusade.

    Best of luck to you, sir.

    I haven't really seen you in chat before, maybe because of different time zones and other occurrences. However, you seem to be a genuine guy and are one of the most active people on forums, even if sometimes you are a bit harsh on other Mod Applications, haha. So full support from me.

    (Also, is this thread outdated? Thought I saw Mic say you are already a mod, haha don't know if that is real.)

    Just remembered at Christmas 2016 u and your friend basically scammed and lied to me,
    U wanted my unplaced Santa 2016, u said 70 something Dias and 2 rare potatoes for the head, I asked u how much they were worth, u said 120 each I asked in chat someone msged me saying it was worth 120 each too (ur friend) I was convinced cus most people r good people on skyblock,
    I did the trade and then tried to sell the potatoes for 120 each and people told me they were worth like 40-60 Dias and then I got a mod involved by u refused to refund me and the mod couldn't make u refund me,
    Can't remember which mod it was,
    Could've been random but I can't remember,
    If ur that mod who tried to help 3 months ago then pls say :)

    Sry bro but NO SUPPORT XD
    forgot how rude and mean u were...

    Thats because I was told they were 120+. Im sorry about this, but I had sold a rare potato for 120 diamonds. Thanks for your feedback though, and could we clarify this in private message?

    Ladies stop fighting. If Conor's friend scammed you BenCraft, it has no reflect on Conor. There was a stage where Super Rare Potatoes were in fact super rare. Whether Conor received false information and relayed it on unknowingly does not make Conor a bad person. My island is the richest on skyblock, and Conor has my full trust on it. He is a good person, and he has my full support on him becoming moderator.

    Good luck Conor!
