For which server do you wish to be staff?
All-Trade

What position are you applying for?
Moderator

How many hours do you have in our servers?
2 days 13:22:17 hours

Please provide your GameMe page with the highest hours (OPTIONAL)


How old are you?
22

Do you have a mic and do you use it?
Yes and it is my main form of communication

Do you have any previous experience, if so, when and where?
My previous experience of moderation has been on Minecraft Community servers. The main moderator experience was on a now defunct "SuperiorMinecraft" server. The majority of the responsibilities on this server was using server plugins to reverse griefing and damage to property/structures, and banning those responsible.

Whilst a different game, I gained experience in dealing with griefing and collating evidence of incidents.

What ideas or skill can you provide for the benefit of HG?
One of my potential ideas is to try to get people to cut down on accusations of scamming/hacking without actually explaining what the situation is in it's entirity. I feel that potentially innocent traders could be mis-represented by a mis-informed player with personal "they scammed me" or "they are a hacker" comments

As well as this I pose the concept of "incognito staff" where new staff members do not have the "HG" tag. This allows them to observe the situation before an admin is present "potentially affecting the incidents" (i.e an individual with aim-assistance toggles his assistance off when an admin logs in).

Why do you think you would be a good staff member?
I have 730 hours of playtime in TF2; Of which the majority has been spent in Community servers dedicated to Trading. I have patience and have analytical thinking in judgement,

How much time do you think you can spend on forums/servers per day?
3-5 hours in my current arrangement

What do you think the current All-Trade staff are doing right?
The presence and "open nature" of the current staff is welcoming but authoritive if required. This benefits a friendly community run by fellow traders/gamers.

What do you think the All-Trade Staff, or Harpoon in general, could work on at this point in time?
The only thing that I feel as of lately is a staff member being in the server but AFK. I have had an occasion where there was an incident in the server and there was an staff member but they were at that point AFK

Why do you want to become a member of the HG All-Trade team?
I feel I can assist in the community with a friendly but firm if required presence. I also feel I can assist in times of day where the US staff are sleeping or unavailable.

Any miscellaneous information we should know?
Owls are awesome.
