    By your logic a Helper tag and mod permissions on a video game mean nothing, so why are you even applying.

    Nice filter bypass and provocative topics.

    I cant vote due to my lack of post but I think you would be a good classic mod because I have seen you on classic as my first impression of you and you seem to be fit for the job, also we dont have a mod that plays much classic which would be nice. you obviously wont get the position because of the non supports but I wanted to voice my opinion.

    I have withdrawn my support from this application. I met with him many weeks prior to this skin situation. During this time I got to speak with him in a VC and as I do believe he is usually a rule-following kind player this has come out of left field for me and I can't support this player anymore.

    I used a Donald Trump skin too, Trump is offensive to a lot of people too, but that's okay, and hitler is not?

    It wasn't supposed to be a joke, I was looking for a new skin and thought oh, this could be a good one. Because its a skin. In a video game. Shouldn't matter. It was made for players to use. Why else would a skin have been made?

    When did anyone say your Trump skin was okay. Also, last time I checked, Trump did not start a world war.

    Using what I have previously told you in chat, just because something exists does not mean it is okay. That is just like saying "Oh, I shot them because guns are made for people to use". Do some thinking here man, it's not allowed in the skyblock rules.

    This will be my last statement here about this player. Good day! :D

    I do help a lot though, I don't see you very often which is probably why you don't see me. Again the skin wasn't a joke, it was a skin I was planning on using until people got all pressed over a skin in a video game.

    I was making a point, crazy how you cut off the whole conversation, and only kept that in. There was more to that conversation and you know it.

    This is a video game buddy not real life. This is a skin in a video game. Not a gun.

    Sadly, I'm going to no support. I cannot talk on your activity or how much you help, mainly due to our difference in time zones. Based on the pictures and reasoning to the skin, and the response you had to it being bought to attention, it is clear that you cannot take criticism or own up to doing something wrong. It is important to accept all comments made, especially on your application.

    To further talk on the skin, it is false to compare somebody like that to a politician, whilst Donald Trump may not be the most liked of people, he is nothing like the public figure of the skin you used.

    Best of luck

    Why would I own up to something when I didn't do anything wrong? It's a video game. And I changed it 3 MINUTES AFTER. 3 minutes. wow.

    I was only going to post the once on this thread, but just to address this statement, I'll make an exception.

    Whether you had the skin on for 3 minutes, 3 hours, 3 days, etc. It doesn't make it any less wrong, nor does it being a video game. You did something wrong and whether you changed it after 3 minutes, you still did it, and it was still wrong. The platform, the time, the meaning, none of that makes it any less wrong, it was still not the right thing to do.

    Please can all comments regarding skins stop.
    This is not the place for you to argue amongst yourselves.

    We appreciate you may not like an action a specific applicant has taken part in however let’s focus on constructive criticism rather than arguing. This will help a player grow much more and learn from their mistakes.

    Any further argumentative comments will be deleted. Let’s use this application for it’s specified purpose.

    no support.

    you haven't handled this whole situation well and you haven't proven to be someone who is ready to become a mod. Sure you might be able to assist newer players with basic commands but being a mod needs more than that. You don't seem to be fit for the position just based on what I've read on this application. It's a shame because u genuinely do seem nice in chat when I do see you.

    In reference to this skin debate above.
    Being on the staff team means you should have a good understanding of the rules of the server.
    Having an inappropriate skin is not on.
    Sure people make mistakes and people are understanding of that.
    You just need to apologise and move on.

    (Skyblock Official Site | Skyblock)

    INAPPROPRIATE USERNAMES/SKINS

    Inappropriate usernames and/or skins will result in an immediate removal from the server until the username and/or skin is changed. Examples of inappropriate usernames are usernames that promote other servers, contain vulgar language, or target sensitive and inappropriate topics. Examples of inappropriate skins are skins that contain inappropriate visuals, relate to major world events or historical leaders that are reminded of sensitive and potentially offensive subjects, or contain racial slurs. The examples provided are simply provided for further understanding and are not the only examples of inappropriate usernames and/or skins.

    No support. I was really going to give you a neutral rating but after seeing your responses, good luck trying to a support rating from me LOL. Your responses here already tell me you are not even ready to be a moderator, Being a helper (and eventually moderator) requires you to work with people from all backgrounds and to be open and accepting. You clearly don't seem open nor accepting. Your recent post literally brought in politics which is something you have to avoid as much as possible. More so please go read a history book before making the same mistake like you did.

    I’m going to have to go with no support reading your application I had thought you sounded like a great choice but after reading the comments and your application one of the things you said is not true for this situation you do seem to be toxic about things that have been discussed in the comments and have said some ignorant things when you could have just been polite about it and apologized and tried to work on what had been done but you took on defensive and saying it is not your fault at all but it is fully on you the 2 people you have mentioned are totally different situations and saying what they have done is basically the same is willful ignorance.

    moving on from this to be a helper or a mod you have to be accepting of all race and faith/religion and you don’t seem to be and it is sad to me because at the start you really did look like a promising person for staff and if things were different I would probably have been neutral/support but hopefully you can work on things that you have done and try again

    I hope next time things will be different

    Oh I've already learned. Like I said in 42 replies already, the skin was changed after 3 minutes.

    You just said I am not accepting of race or religion? You dont even know me, youre a random person over the internet, how are you going to say I am not accepting of race or religion. You sound dumb.

    This thread is getting a little heated. The user shouldn't have had the skin, and if that causes your viewpoint on their application to change, that is alright. People are allowed to feel uncomfortable with something you have done, even if it was for a short period of time. Calling others dumb is not going to make people feel better after seeing you with that skin. Please keep replies informative, respectful, and calm. This goes for all users who have interacted with this application or are planning to.

    That wasn't the person you replied to, and I'm pretty sure he meant he doesn't care about what your opinion is, he still is going to treat you like a human being no matter what
