How much time do you have in our servers?
1 day | 17 hours - I try to spend at least 2-4 hours per day on the AT3 server

Please list your schedule of when you would be on the servers, include day, time, and timezone
As I'm out of work for now due to a broken hand, here are my current schedules:
Monday-Sunday | 09:00 to 00:00 (with breaks in between, of course)

As I'll be back at work in a couple weeks (probably first/second week of January), my new schedules would be:
Monday-Friday | 19:00 to 23:00-00:00
Saturday-Sunday | 09:00 to 23:00-00:00

My timezone is GMT+2 (Switzerland).

How old are you?
23

Do you have a mic and do you use it?
I do currently own a mic but I rarely (read: never) use it for multiple personal reasons.

Tell us why you should be a staff member
As for my personality, I believe I'm someone who can keep their calm due to thick skin, which is something I'm fairly sure is sought out after in admin/moderator applicants. I'd also like to think that I can keep a clear head whenever in a stressful situation (not that a lot of stressful situations have a tendency to happen in TF2 servers) which is another quality, I believe, is sought after on admin/moderator applicants.

As for my game experience, I've been playing TF2 ever since it went free back in 2011, through multiple accounts (accounts I'm willing to provide should the need arise) and I believe I have enough experience with the game to properly detect hacking software, which is something that most admins I've met (in other communities, at least) cannot do.

I have some prior admin experience as I was an admin back on Panda.tf Community for a couple months (at least I think so, I was demoted for lack of activity due to RL issues) so I know how Sourcemod works (most of it).

And now, we reach the bad part of this application: I am currently banned on 4 (3, if you don't count FoG) communities for "hacking and toxicity" which, in my opinion, isn't something you typically look for in applicants. But, alas, I cannot control whether communities decide to ban me or not. I'm pretty sure I don't have to say it again, but, I have never hacked on this game nor do I plan to. However, when I was banned for the first time, I was fairly toxic and that community had a right to ban me for that. I ban evaded, insulted the community, all that bad shit because I couldn't understand why they had banned me for hacking. That is in the past however and I'm looking forward to turning a new leaf, hopefully with Harpoon.tf.

Lastly, I'm fairly sure that my current playtime on AT3 isn't enough to get accepted and I'll understand if I don't get accepted; this application, should it get declined, will serve as a learning tool for what I should do or not do in the future.

Thank you.

 

1. I am aware of this and I made this application, prematurely some might say, so I can gather information on what to do on my next application, should this one be declined.

2. I've tried to appeal every ban, on every community I'm banned from, multiple times (definitely too many times) and they were all declined due to those admins being convinced that I am indeed hacking, despite me providing multiple forms of evidence (handcam footage, PoV demos, recordings of my screen, etc...).

3. Aye, fair enough, I am indeed fairly new here.

4. I have a total of ~900-1000 hours on TF2 through multiple accounts, accounts I'm still willing to provide should any admin/regular member ask for them.

5. Actually on the 21st of October (my birthday, uwu) but I get your point.

Thank you for your input.
