    Your in-game name:
    TheCarrotThief, but many call me Thief or Carrot.

    Which timezone are you in?
    I live in Oklahoma, so that would make me in the Central Standard Timezone.

    Which languages do you speak?
    I only speak English, If I run into a player that needs assistance, that doesn't speak English, I can always ask another staff member that speaks that language, or even a player.

    Have you ever been banned? (if yes, why?)
    I have never been banned, and I do not plan on being banned.

    Why do you think you should be a mod?
    I would love to be apart of the staff team because I've always loved to help others, making people happy is what I love to do. I have a strong passion for helping others, I am a leader, and I know right from wrong. I consider, skyblock to be sort of like a home. I go online to get away, and talk with others, to socialize and help. I've been playing skyblock for almost 2 years, it will be 2 years in January, 2016. I always try to maintain a positive attitude, and try my best, with everything and anything.
    Moderating is something that I feel passionate about. It's something that I want to do, for a long time. Being able to moderate would mean the world to me. Being able to help other smore, and being able to do more for others, it would make me happy. Giving me the position to be a moderator, would be wonderful, and I will not let you down if you give me the opportunity.
    When you're a mod, I feel that you must always be on top of things. I feel as if not a lot of moderators are always doing what they're supposed to be doing. I've seen a lot of mods, run around doing really nothing, and I hope to change that. This is also not to insult the staff, it's just to say that I see some mods not doing what they're supposed to do or they don't notice many things. I wanna be able to make a change in this community, and I know it's not going to be easy. I value in many things, and I will list all of them for you, and explain how I value in these things, and as to why they are important.
    One of the most important things that I believe that all mods should have, is activity, I value being online a lot. I dedicate most of my time into the server. Being online a lot, means you're able to assist many people that normally don't get helped. I am aware that there are times where the staff cannot help due to lack of perms, or the lack of being able to come online.
    I also believe that being a fast in typing is something that all mods should have as well. Being able to type fast means you're able to assist players that need the help, it also means if someone is spamming, you can prevent them from spamming anymore by being able to kick, mute, or in some cases ban the player(s). Having this ability will benefit the server greatly.
    When it comes to making tough decisions, it's not hard for me. If someone I am good friends with, breaks a rule, I will not be bias. In the past year and a half, I've seen mods be active in chat, and not really either pay attention or not really caring for when their friends cuss out someone, or even just simply spam. I believe that no matter what rank you are, if you break a rule, you will receive the same punishment as anyone else. No matter if you're my friend or even a best friend, you will be dealt with accordingly, depending on what the situation is.
    I believe that being trustworthy is a huge thing that you must have. I know mods cannot tell other players what's going on behind doors, and If I were to become a mod, that is how it will remain. Being honest is something I like to live up to, but when it comes to things like secrets I work my way around them. Things that need to be a secret will always be a secret, and being trustworthy doesn't always have to be with secrets, it also falls into being reliable, this is another thing that I believe that I have. When it comes to tough situations, and things needing to be done, the right way, you can count on me to do it.
    Being trustworthy branches into many other things as well, like being loyal. I really only play Skyblock.net. I really am stuck onto this community, I know this community isn't perfect, and I know the server does have issues, but for some reason, I really love this server, and I want to be able to give back to it. Being a moderator I know will not be an easy job, and I know it will also take away from a lot of game play, but I feel like moderator is something that I really want to do.
    I know I am still fairly new to the forums, but I've worked with Xenforo before, so I know my way around it quite easily. I've also worked on a few other servers, I know how to work with logblock (which we currently don't have, but rumors say it will be added back). I also know basic commands, (kick, mute, temp-ban, ban... etc).
    I'd like to thank everyone for taking the time in reading my application, I know I still have a bit of working to do before getting to moderator, but I know I can do it. I'd like to ask, if anyone has any suggestions, or constructive criticism, I would gladly appreciate it.
    "Don't give up just because of what people said. Use that as your motive to push harder."

    How long can you be active on the server every day?
    Sunday:
    6-12 hours.
    Monday: 6-12 hours.
    Tuesday: 6-12 hours.
    Wednesday: 6-12 hours.
    Thursday: 6-12 hours.
    Friday: 6-12 hours.
    Saturday: 6-12 hours.
    These hours are nothing more but a guess, or estimate, things might occur IRL.

    Do you have any past experience as a moderator?
    I have many experience moderating, and plenty experience administrating, so allowing me to be apart of the staff team would mean you're not getting an experienced player.

    Once again, thank you for reading my application, and all constructive criticism, is welcome and appreciated.

    The first time I saw you on the forums I knew you were going to be a great addition to the community, I can really see you being a moderator.

    I've been in this community since the beginning of 2014, I only just joined forums, and I'd consider myself active, thanks a ton for your feedback!
    I do what I feel is right, and you were being lashed out at, and no one else was sticking up for you.
    I've been playing for little over a year and a half. ^.^ Thank you for your support and feedback! :heart:

    I can see you becoming a moderator in the future. I believe you have a strong chance. The only negative thing I have to say is that you haven't been on the forums for long. I think that you'll be a great moderator. For now, I'll give 75% support. I'll keep an eye on you in game and I'll decide whether I should fully support you. Good luck.

    Support.

    I like this application, detailed, yet cut to the point. However, I do suggest getting to know more of the community better. I have seen you in game a few times, you're extremely kind. You'd be a great moderator, I see it in you. c:

    I was actually hoping you made an app cause I had a feeling you could be a good moderator ;p

    Support. I don't think your join date on the forums should really matter, as I became a moderator only after joining the forums a month before being promoted and there's been a few others who have been promoted after recently joining them.

    Support! You have a very good mod application and I think you would be a great mod, but you just recently joined the forums. That isn't a bad thing, but just continue to be active on the forums and after a while you will have a better chance of getting promoted.
