    SKYS Staff Application

    • About Me / Introduction •

    My name is Sky, you may know me as SkyGuyGamerz or Sky_Guy_Gamer from classic. And I mainly play on the survival server, since classic isn't really supported anymore and the community has moved on to survival. I have started to play more economy recently and have found it to be quite fun, I have met some new people and will continue to hope to find others. I joined this server a while ago when I got my first laptop. I found out about the server by typing random server IP's into the Minecraft server list, and since I heard about a survival map known as SkyBlock. I thought why not try skyblock.net. And now here I am part of my favorite childhood Minecraft server and community. I love this server and use it to cope with the things in my life that are stressful.​



    • Information From The Template •


    • Your in-game and discord tag •
    My Ign is SkyGuyGamerz and my discord is SkyGuyGamer#1251
    My nick name is Sky/Skys

    • What time zone are you in? •
    I live in Eastern Standard Time (EST)

    • Can you speak any additional languages? •
    My first language is English but I do know a tiny bit of Spanish
    from learning it in school. If needed I can use google translate.

    • Do you have the necessary means of capturing evidence? •
    Yes I can use OBS to record videos, I can use the integrated
    Windows Game Capture feature, I can take screenshots too.
    And in case all fail I can use my phone's camera to record
    and to take pictures.

    • How long can you be active on our platforms every day? •
    It differs on what platforms since I got school.

    • For Discord •

    Any time during the day I may hop on to see if there's
    anyone that needs help in the help section on discord.
    Also, ill come say hi to any active chatters in the general channel.

    • For Forums •
    It's a bit like whenever I feel like it, same as discord. I can
    check it on my phone whenever or where ever I am.

    • For the server •
    I try to always get in some time on skyblock each day of the week.
    I cannot play as much on weekdays as I can on weekends due to
    school and out-of-school activities like hanging out with friends.
    For weekdays I can get up to like 3 hours and for weekends I can
    play up to 5+ hours. I can also get on the server through an application
    on my phone whenever if needed.

    I will mainly play and talk in the afternoon as in the morning I like
    to sleep and have to go to school. And if there's a big issue where people need my help I will most likely stay on longer to help with that situation. Any of these times may change
    due to the things I have to do IRL.

    • When did you first join Skyblock? •
    I don't know exactly when I first joined the server but I do know that it
    was before August 2015 as I have a video on YouTube that I made on
    the classic skyblock server! I have taken multiple breaks from skyblock
    and I have always come back. If I do take any breaks in the future
    I know for a fact that ill come back because of the community.

    • Have you ever been banned on any platform? •
    I have not been banned on any of the platforms.

    • Do you have any past moderation experience? •
    Yes, I have run and helped out with a few different servers
    and helped configure plugins on them. I know what to watch out for.
    I am a moderator on the skyblock discord server!

    • Why do you think you should become a staff member? •

    Here are some reasons why I think I should become a staff member.

    • Helpful •
    Whenever I see someone in need of help whether that's on the discord,
    forums, or on the skyblock server. If I know the answer even though I'm not staff I
    will do my best to help as quickly as I can. And if I don't know the answer I will still
    try my best to help and or find someone to help.`

    • Patient •
    I can be very patient if I need to. Like if there's a person who needs help
    with something that could take a while I'm am perfectly fine with helping them
    for as long as they need.

    • Understanding •
    I am very understanding and can understand if there's a problem, or why
    people do things. If there is a problem I won't try to make a big scene about it
    and will chat in private chats.

    • Respectful and Polite •
    I try to always be the nicest I possibly can with whatever is going on in my life.
    I will respect everyone who I will talk to and will only focus on the problem or question at hand.
    • Honest •
    I am a very honest guy. In fact, I don't like to lie, it makes me feel bad. One time at a drop party I
    I got the dp head on both economy and skyblock when I was just supposed to get it on
    economy. So I very much could've not said anything and just kept both the heads, but I know
    it was a glitch and it could ruin the economy of the server. So I told a mod and gave him the head
    and stuck with the one I got on the economy server.
    • Active? •
    Now yes, I know that I take breaks from skyblock every now and then. But I always
    come back to this amazing server. Every time I left either because I was bored, or had
    something in my life that was happening at the time. I spend a lot of my week on skyblock and love being able to talk to the community whenever. I use my phone daily to check the forums and chat for a bit on discord.

    • Professional/Mature •
    Now yes I like to have fun and joke around from time to time but I do know when
    to be mature and when I can have fun. When there's an issue I will do my best to solve that
    issue with professionalism. When any kind of staff member helps out with a question or
    a problem they should take it seriously and do the best they can to help.

    • Knowledgeable •
    I know a ton about this server, all from other players and figuring them out myself.
    I know everything from the hidden commands like /esethome to the knowing
    command such as /vote. I also know how the server works and functions.
    I know a lot about the economy and the community. I also know a ton about casinos.
    Many people have things stolen from casinos as they are a big part of this server.
    Using my knowledge about casinos combined with being able to log blocks would
    make it very easy for me to be able to check if someone stole something. I know what to
    look for and where things could be placed in order to rig the casino for someone to win, I
    also really much like to play with Redstone and I understand how these things work.
    I also know how plugins work and how they work together.

    • Conclusion •
    I just want to be able to give back to the skyblock server and everyone in it
    including staff and the amazing community, I want to become part of the staff
    team to let new players or players with questions know that they can come to me
    and ask anything or if they need help with anything. I have had a lot of time to think
    about this and I have tried before, I'm hoping this time works out :)

    Feel free to leave feedback.

    • Do you meet the requirements for staff? •
    Yes, I do.

    For an allegation of corruption or bias could you Provide proof.

    otherwise your kinda just throwing something damming out without any context or proof

    You should try being more active and helpful in the discord, Marcawn has seen you there but needs to be more.

    Which means this is a neutral.

    i’ve gotten to known sky for a while and have seen them help out many times in-game. i’m not too active atm however i’ll be giving my judgement on what i overall know about them. they’re also very patient which is a good key trait in being a staff member. one thing they can always do is improve helping out and communicating on discord but i’m sure they’ll gradually do that. support !!

    Overall not a bad applicant. Just one thing that I am looking at and it has come up in the first paragraph.

    Knowing how to play on economy is crucial to being a staff member. Not knowing how to play the server or somewhat understand the concept or gameplay can really diminish your ability to moderate or assist other players.

    I think before I give you my support I would really like to see you more on economy and demonstrate that you can make the commitment to getting to know some economy players and how the server works.

    Your discord and forums activity lately has been quite good. I have seen you multiple times participating in conversations and this is a really good sign.

    I will be neutral for now, but hopefully in time I will see you on economy and be able to give you my support.

    Good luck man!

    Sorry Sky I also agree, since the server has multiple subservers and becoming staff for one means staff for all, I think it is crucial you have an understanding of all the servers you would be helping/moderating

    Best of luck with the application

    Sorry Ca1 but do you care to expand? Just that if there was a misunderstanding it is only fair on Sky that it is explained a little to help his application

    Yes I did not think they did bias or corruption I just was mad because I pay a high price as someone is bidding against me or telling SKY not to sell a certain item to me. But this may not affect their moderator, I don't know.

    Very mature of you to be honest, hopefully Sky is not being biased but I understand why you may have been mad, however it is good that you were forward about it

    Thank you very much for the feedback. As for economy, I will do my best to play it more and find some people from it.

    also thanks for the feedback I will work on it.

    Thanks for the clarification, I hope that we can be friends in the future.

    I've talked to Sky many times and he is really patient and willing. He is very polite and won't get angry and impatient. I think Sky is perfect for Helper and I think he would serve everyone great!!!
    Good luck Sky!!!

    Neutral for the time being. While I understand you're mainly a survival player, I think it's also integral to learn the mechanics of economy as well so you can successfully help players there too. In the past couple days I've been online with you on survival and I haven't seen you helping out as much in chat as I would've hoped. I suggest speaking up a bit more and popping over to economy on occasion too. I'm on economy a lot so if you ever have questions about it, I'd be happy to help you out. Good luck with your application Sky. :)
