1) What position are you applying for? Network Server Supervisor
2) How important is this to you? This is very important to me, I have always wanted to be apart of a network, and this opportunity to help this network from the start is amazing, I Have always enjoyed helping people and working on servers.
Being apart of this would be a great challenge for my 4 years of admin experience.
3) Any past experience in this field or something similar? Yes, in the past i have owned my own Vanilla server, i did all the moderation and worked with the plugins, it was fairly popular, but i had to close it down due to not having enough money to pay for it. I used to be the head admin in a different network, it was not very big, but the owner closed it down because he could not afford to pay for the costs of the server. I also have administration experience on other games, I have been admin on many Gmod server, I was recently a Manager on a Gmod server, but the server became very in active so it was taken down, and now they only have 1 server, which I have chosen not to play on.
4) Have you ever managed a server before? Yes, I used to own a server, as I have said in the previous question
5) Age and maturity level(1-10)? Age: 16 Maturity: 9, like all people I do like to have fun and goof off, but in general I am a very mature person, and I know how to handle situations in a mature manner.
6)Skype and IGN? SlySocks
IGN: theonwolf89 (I will be changing it to SlySocks in the new update)
7) Would you still want this job even if it had high stress? I have had a pretty high stress life, but in a different way. I have done actions sports (Mountain biking, backcountry sknowboarding etc.) for most of my life, and I have been injured a lot, I'm currently going through a year long recovery because of an injury, and this can be very very stressful, but I have found ways to cope with stress, and make situations less stressful.
8) How many hours are you willing to dedicate a day/week? A day: at LEAST 1 probably 2-4 hours, unless something has come up. A week: 21+ hours, again, maybe less if something has come up.
9) How can I trust that you are going to be a dedicated staff member? Minecraft has always been a game I am dedicated to, I have been playing it since it was on browser, and I'm still playing it now. I also love administrating servers and dealing with conflicts, cause when I know I have helped someone or made there day better, that feels awesome. And with both of these, that makes the already great time I have, even better.
10) How much money can you set aside for the network/server (not necessary but will earn you a lot of consideration points)? In the future, 10-50 or possibly more, no clue. But right now, none, I need the money I have for a car.
11) Anything else that I should know that may earn this application some consideration points? I am a streamer on twitch.tv/slysocks (4k views and 265 followers ATM), though I am not very big, my channel has been growing quite quickly, I have only been streaming for a month. So with my twitch channel I can help the server grow, and advertise it even before it is opened. I can help with builds, though I am not very good at making my own :P, if someone says to do something specific, I can do it.
As the Network Server Supervisor I would still do the nitty gritty of dealing with situations like what the General staff have to do. I would only do this when I am not working on bigger issues.
If the spot I have applied for is already taken, I am to be in a different position.
Thanks for considering my application
-SlySocks
I am Niall the network manager at OnNet. I would just like to let you know that the network supervisor position is filled. Good luck with your application!
Greetings. I am Corey and here is my application for a Network Staff.
1) What position are you applying for? I would like to apply for a Network Staff.
2) How important is this to you? I wouldn't want to sound desperate because I really am not. I would say that if I was given this position, I would take it maturely and treat it as an opportunity to help out a fellow minecrafter.
3) Any past experience in this field or something similar? Yes, I do have past experience. However, I am not a server owner nor am I staff on any server. I have studied, on my free time, as much about servers as I possibly can. When I say study, I don't mean knowing how to use all those very common plugins like Essentials etc. When I say studied, I meant I tried learning how to set up a basic shared hosting server to setting up a dedicated server with BungeeCord hooked up onto it. However, I've yet to master fully setting up a dedicated server but I have mastered some parts of it like installing a multicraft panel to it and more.
4) Have you ever managed a server before? Technically speaking, yes but I didn't opened up the server to public as I think that I'm not ready yet to fully manage a whole dedicated server by myself. However, I've had a dedicated server and have been playing around with it for 2 months. That's how I mastered some skilles stated in the answers to the previous question in the application.
5) Age and maturity level(1-10)? I'm Corey and I'm 16 years old. I wouldn't call myself mature but I think 7/10 best represents me honestly.
6)Skype and IGN? You can find me on Skype with the username, BlockPoison. My in-game-name is also the same as my Skype username, BlockPoison.
7) Would you still want this job even if it had high stress? This varies with the level of stress. I've been growing up to put up with stress. In my opinion, I think that I can manage the average stress a person gets while hosting or helping someone to host a server. Thus, I would say I wouldn't mind at all having this job even if it had stress.
8) How many hours are you willing to dedicate a day/week? Do note that whatever information I'm about to provide is just an average. So, you can expect me to be online longer and occasionally for a shorter duration. On average, I could dedicate to this server approximately at least 5 to 6 hours a day, 7 days a week.
9 How can I trust that you are going to be a dedicated staff member? I, in any way, am not forcing anyone to trust me fully due to the fact that we're all strangers in this online world. However, you could 'toy around' with me as a test to check if my sense of dedication is present. In other ways, you could judge from this app(I am not trying to boast) that I'm putting enough dedication to type this out in as much detail as I could possibly provide. Also, I wouldn't be a dedicated staff if my application isn't colour coated with details. Thus, this application serves as an evidence that my sense of dedication is present.
10) How much money can you set aside for the network/server (not necessary but will earn you a lot of consideration points)? I'm sorry but I can't provide any revenue for this server just yet due to some personal issues. It's like giving your money to a person you know will backstab you at any point in your life. However, I could provide some revenue if I see this server growing and I feel that I should play my part in helping the server's growth. Since I'm quite young as one calls it, I can't provide revenue too soon. I'm sorry about that.
11) Anything else that I should know that may earn this application some consideration points? This may not earn me considertaion points but it acts as a sidenote to give you a heads up. There will of course be times where I can't go online at all or go online for about a minute or so because I have exams to focus on. I will normally focus on something and then move on to the other. So, if an exam period is coming, you'll see me slowly fade away and I'll come back after the exam period is over. I do hope that you could understand and could put up with that if you ever consider me. Just another personal sidenote for considerations points. As you can tell, I put in quite an amount of effort in this application and I really did.
Thank you for taking up your precious time to read this application. I do hope that you forgive me if anything I've stated in this application has offended another party. If I seem to be rude in this application at some parts *cough* Number 10 *cough* I do feel sorry but I just needed to provide an example to support my view. I hope that you'll take it that I'm serious with this application. Thank you once again for reading.

Will we still have to wait for the reply on skype from OnNet or you?
So then do I need to reapply because he told me to pick a different job? If so I would like Server GM or Server Forum Mod or Network Community Manager or Network Server Supervisor. I will include a copy of my application in this post as well:
1) What position are you applying for? Well as it stands right now I am applying for Server GM or Server Forum Mod or Network Community Manager or Network Server Supervisor! I am also welcome to other options that you have.
2) How important is this to you? I am really looking for a place that I can grow as well as work with other on making a really good server. I find my self wanting to work my butt off. This is a very important role that I feel I have the time and experience to fill. When I find something that I want I jump right in and give it my 110% Well this is something that I want so here is my all and them some!
3) Past experience in this position or something similar? Well I have my AS in Computer Technology so that is one thing that I have going for myself. However I really feel that my experience with growing up on computers can help a lot. I have spent the last 10-12 years or so (I really can't remember now) working on computers using websites setting up forums etc. I feel that my experiences with that also make me a good choice. I also have my own business (No seriously I do go check it out it's called Scire LLC you can go to Colorado USA Business Admin site and look up the name.) We specialize in computer software development. However as of late we haven't had many projects as of late.
4) Age and Maturity level(1-10)? I am 26 (almost 27)
- I am a 10 on maturity level. I spent almost 6 years n the military (US Navy to be exact) I feel that my maturity level is huge mainly in part of this.
5) Skype? My skype is Keithpotz26
6) IGN? monsteromen
7) How familiar are you at managing and stress? Explain. I am actually quite good at this. I have been deployed quite a few times overseas and when the going get's tough you really have to hunker down and do what you can. Stress is but a mental thing and personally for me I tend to strive more in stress rather then without it. My military experience has really aided me a lot in finding really good ways to get rid of stress. One of them is playing games, which is ironic because I want this job.
8) How much money can you set aside for the network/server? Honestly it depends on the month but I am thinking 150-200 USD Possibly more depending on my circumstances plus we can talk about this more if you choose me. 10) How can I trust that you are going to be a dedicated staff member?
Honestly you can't really trust by what a person says however I do believe that actions speak a lot louder then words. So I am generally on every single day. So you know I am going to be dedicated because of a few things:
I was in the military so my on timeliness and my ability to problem solve is awesome. Because of this I am always dedicated to what I am doing.
I am very passionate about what I want to do. I started my own business because I was so passionate about providing a particular service to people and I did. I think that also shows into my dedication.
11) Anything else I should know that may earn this application some consideration points? Well I understand that I only have one post on here. That is because I just found out about mincraftforum.net. I am energetic and eager to learn. I also have some wonderful ideas that could work out very well on this type of server. Plus as all else fails I love minecraft.
To whom it may concern. Personally I like to organize my applications and such, so I will be putting my personal format to it. I have been staff on previous servers so I will be putting down questions I believe can help you understand what my abilities are. Also if I am accepted please add me on Skype instead of messaging me. Thank you
IGN: Poldy101
Name: Juan
Age: 15
Skype: jvellisochoa
Position: Admin but if denied I would also love to be a Moderator
A little information about myself: My name is Juan I am a student currently and attend school. I am a very bright person (in my opinion) and am ahead a grade in mathematics. I can play the guitar and I am a computer gamer and programmer.
Time able to dedicate towards your server: I personally have a large sum of time on my hands. I only take one musical instrument outside of school, which frees up my time a lot. In order to balance this time I plan what I need to do every day. Currently I am holding 1 separate staff position (which I will list below with evidence), which is very time consuming. However if I am accepted and given the privilege to work with the your server and its staff team I would immediately leave such positions. On an estimate between practicing my musical instrument, doing schoolwork, and moderating the server, I would be able to spend around 3-5 hours on your server and the Forums. I understand that Moderating is a very demanding job, but I am prepared to take it on.
Past experience as staff: I have held 5 staff positions in the past. Unfortunately I can only provide evidence for four of them. I am currently a Head-Mod on Music craft this is a low scale server mainly because previously it was a minigame server. Lack of funds forced us to downgrade to survival and creative. Although I didn’t deal with a lot of people there, it taught me how to deal with minigames contrary to survival. Also, I hold an admin position on an opening server called Skyrim craft this server is starting out so there isn’t much to say about it. The website is up but server is currently down for maintenance. Lastly I hold a T-Mod position on a server called cracked cube I deal with around 7 people a day here but the owner of this server has taught me a lot about professionalism. There is one more server but unfortunately it shut down due to lack of funds I held a head-admin position on it and I was around the only active staff on it. By myself I handled around 30-50 people on a day. This server taught me how to handle large crowds, which I believe will be especially helpful on the server. I held one more moderator staff position but I have no proof of it so I will not be mentioning it here.
Why do I want to be staff: Many people have different reasons to apply for staff. Mine will sound a little cheesy but its true. I purely enjoy helping people. It gives me a sense of gratitude when I show someone how to do things the right way or help someone with their issues. I am a good problem solver and I have an analytical brain. These traits make my job easy and fun. I know that staff isn’t meant to be a fun job, but keeping a cheerful attitude on job and being friendly to players makes more people want to come back to the server. I have two modes when being staff; one cheery light mood when I joke around and talk with players and a serious mood when dealing with issues. I NEVER allow these two to mix together because that could jeopardize my position and probably annoy some players. Lastly, I know that certain people apply for the rank because they think it will bring them respect and make them cool. I have never considered this as a reason to apply and I frankly hate these types of people. They often end up abusing their power and getting banned. I have never abused and will never abuse. I am applying because I believe that I have what it takes to help the server.
Why do I think I should be staff (excellent question by me of course): I consider this question one of the most important questions on a staff application, it allows me to discuss my qualifications so prepare for a long answer. There is a very clear reason in my head that makes me believe I am suitable to be staff, experience. Others may downplay experience but it has taught me a lot. From all of my different staff positions I have learned different things. First, my strategy for dealing with rule breaking players, I have reviewed lots of applications where the person says I will warn them three times and than mute them. Honestly I hate this strategy; its very robotic and the player will probably appeal and do it again. My personal preference to dealing with such issues is convincing. I like to try to talk a spammer out of spamming. In my opinion showing them how what they are doing is pointless and really does nothing can possibly convince them not to do it again. Of course this doesn’t always work than in that case I have to mute them. Banning to me is a last resort. I always oppose banning players unless it is obvious that they must be banned or it’s a last resort. In my view servers love their members and all that banning does is remove members. If we can change the view of such troublemakers than we can have a great community base. Also I understand how to treat a staff rank. When I have been given the privilege to serve on a staff team I take it very seriously. I will joke around with others but I have learned to respect the rank. Being staff will not make me cool or give me respect but it is my goal to help and server the players of this server. I understand that under no circumstances should I abuse and that I have been given a chance to be a part of the staff team, a chance I should be very grateful for. I hope that I can qualify above mediocre and be exceptional. My experience in the past has taught me how to deal with people, how to inspect and analyze a situation, and how to respect everyone. Lastly I do not have anger issues and I don’t rage. I have learned how to keep my cool even in the most frustrating situations. It will be very rare that you see me genuinely ed off at someone. I have handled many situations in the past and I believe that the challenges I will face on your server will be within by ability. Thank you.
Final statement:
Thank you for reading my application if you have further questions please contact me on Skype. I hope you consider me as a candidate for staff on your excellent server. Also if you would like to see the servers I have worked on previously, please add me on skype and I will talk to you there.
-,Server Architecture (Indifferent with roles, as long as they fall in this category.
2) Any past experience in the field or something similar? Yes, If you have ever played Minetime.com ; I developed Runescape on there server. Right off, my job was to set all permissions for plugins, and install a RPG Plugin. I modified a few plugins and submitted them to the developer, A certain plugin had to be calculated at a reasonable rate and I did the calculations.(Skill plugin)- The Project did not last very long(Around a year) ; nonetheless it gave me good experience. Also, at the time not there were not very many good RPG Plugins, so I used Java skills I learned in a class my Sophmore year to adjust syntax accordingly.(Eclipse)-In other words expand features and make certain plugins more user friendly. To sum up most of my role, is adjusting plugins to conform to a players needs; often plugins gave little to no help if any at all to a player. My role was to assign useful commands and make sure players wouldn't run into trouble.(Plus, when developers installed features they need(like vault and various ones, I would make sure there were no errors in permissions). After all, we wouldn't want players being able to delete blocks due to back permissions. Of course this all sounds easy, but we had over 30 plugins and 7 staff roles. Inheriting classes was not that simple, many issues would have arose without me. 4) Skype and IGN?Modzezima is Ign, and my skype is [email protected] 5) What is your typical way of resolving a conflict? Be specific Well, I don't usually work with players much in my roles, but way back I ran my own 60 player-ish server. I was the Head builder, since I hosted it on my own computer. Many players argued over what role they could have and I often was entangled in heated debates. My solution was to only address issues if my rules were broken(such as spam, anything that took others rights away to have fun). Other than that I just said Pm it out. Of course, hackers were not tolerated, but anti hacking plugins at the time were readily available. 6) How can I trust that you are going to be a dedicated employee?
I enjoy working on servers, and have never ran a prison server. I think it would be very interesting to build or assist in plugin designing to conform to a prison server. Or at least, provide good solutions to installing certain plugins.(I am very good at knocking down laggy plugins)-removing certain plugins and adding features to individual plugins). 7) Are you familiar with plugins? If so name some: Yes many rpg plugins, heroes, and many others 8) Developer only: How much a day can you work? I have around 2 hours dedicated to programming, I could substitute MC developing for it. Also, I have much spare time after classes. 9) Anything else that I should know that may earn this application some consideration points? I have worked with a server that has over 500 players daily, I learned a lot about implementation of files and how to save players information.
From what i have seen, they reply on here, and if you have been accepted they contact you on skype, but it could be different now what someone else is reviewing the applications.
2) How important is this to you? This is very important to me, I have always wanted to be apart of a network, and this opportunity to help this network from the start is amazing, I Have always enjoyed helping people and working on servers.
Being apart of this would be a great challenge for my 4 years of admin experience.
3) Any past experience in this field or something similar? Yes, in the past i have owned my own Vanilla server, i did all the moderation and worked with the plugins, it was fairly popular, but i had to close it down due to not having enough money to pay for it. I used to be the head admin in a different network, it was not very big, but the owner closed it down because he could not afford to pay for the costs of the server. I also have administration experience on other games, I have been admin on many Gmod server, I was recently a Manager on a Gmod server, but the server became very in active so it was taken down, and now they only have 1 server, which I have chosen not to play on.
4) Have you ever managed a server before? Yes, I used to own a server, as I have said in the previous question
5) Age and maturity level(1-10)? Age: 16 Maturity: 9, like all people I do like to have fun and goof off, but in general I am a very mature person, and I know how to handle situations in a mature manner.
6)Skype and IGN? SlySocks
IGN: theonwolf89 (I will be changing it to SlySocks in the new update)
7) Would you still want this job even if it had high stress? I have had a pretty high stress life, but in a different way. I have done actions sports (Mountain biking, backcountry sknowboarding etc.) for most of my life, and I have been injured a lot, I'm currently going through a year long recovery because of an injury, and this can be very very stressful, but I have found ways to cope with stress, and make situations less stressful.
8) How many hours are you willing to dedicate a day/week? A day: at LEAST 1 probably 2-4 hours, unless something has come up. A week: 21+ hours, again, maybe less if something has come up.

10) How much money can you set aside for the network/server (not necessary but will earn you a lot of consideration points)? In the future, 10-50 or possibly more, no clue. But right now, none, I need the money I have for a car.
11) Anything else that I should know that may earn this application some consideration points? I am a streamer on twitch.tv/slysocks (4k views and 265 followers ATM), though I am not very big, my channel has been growing quite quickly, I have only been streaming for a month. So with my twitch channel I can help the server grow, and advertise it even before it is opened. I can help with builds, though I am not very good at making my own :P, if someone says to do something specific, I can do it.
As the Network Server Supervisor I would still do the nitty gritty of dealing with situations like what the General staff have to do. I would only do this when I am not working on bigger issues.
If the spot I have applied for is already taken, I am to be in a different position.

Your a chat mod if I am not mistaken? Anyways, hai.
Hello!
I am Niall the network manager at OnNet. I would just like to let you know that the network supervisor position is filled. Good luck with your application!
Regards,
Niall
1) What position are you applying for?
I would like to apply for a Network Staff.
2) How important is this to you?
I wouldn't want to sound desperate because I really am not. I would say that if I was given this position, I would take it maturely and treat it as an opportunity to help out a fellow minecrafter.
3) Any past experience in this field or something similar?
Yes, I do have past experience. However, I am not a server owner nor am I staff on any server. I have studied, on my free time, as much about servers as I possibly can. When I say study, I don't mean knowing how to use all those very common plugins like Essentials etc. When I say studied, I meant I tried learning how to set up a basic shared hosting server to setting up a dedicated server with BungeeCord hooked up onto it. However, I've yet to master fully setting up a dedicated server but I have mastered some parts of it like installing a multicraft panel to it and more.
4) Have you ever managed a server before?
Technically speaking, yes but I didn't opened up the server to public as I think that I'm not ready yet to fully manage a whole dedicated server by myself. However, I've had a dedicated server and have been playing around with it for 2 months. That's how I mastered some skilles stated in the answers to the previous question in the application.
5) Age and maturity level(1-10)?
I'm Corey and I'm 16 years old. I wouldn't call myself mature but I think 7/10 best represents me honestly.
6)Skype and IGN?
You can find me on Skype with the username, BlockPoison. My in-game-name is also the same as my Skype username, BlockPoison.
7) Would you still want this job even if it had high stress?
This varies with the level of stress. I've been growing up to put up with stress. In my opinion, I think that I can manage the average stress a person gets while hosting or helping someone to host a server. Thus, I would say I wouldn't mind at all having this job even if it had stress.
8) How many hours are you willing to dedicate a day/week?
Do note that whatever information I'm about to provide is just an average. So, you can expect me to be online longer and occasionally for a shorter duration. On average, I could dedicate to this server approximately at least 5 to 6 hours a day, 7 days a week.
9 How can I trust that you are going to be a dedicated staff member?
I, in any way, am not forcing anyone to trust me fully due to the fact that we're all strangers in this online world. However, you could 'toy around' with me as a test to check if my sense of dedication is present. In other ways, you could judge from this app(I am not trying to boast) that I'm putting enough dedication to type this out in as much detail as I could possibly provide. Also, I wouldn't be a dedicated staff if my application isn't colour coated with details. Thus, this application serves as an evidence that my sense of dedication is present.
10) How much money can you set aside for the network/server (not necessary but will earn you a lot of consideration points)?
I'm sorry but I can't provide any revenue for this server just yet due to some personal issues. It's like giving your money to a person you know will backstab you at any point in your life. However, I could provide some revenue if I see this server growing and I feel that I should play my part in helping the server's growth. Since I'm quite young as one calls it, I can't provide revenue too soon. I'm sorry about that.
11) Anything else that I should know that may earn this application some consideration points?
This may not earn me considertaion points but it acts as a sidenote to give you a heads up. There will of course be times where I can't go online at all or go online for about a minute or so because I have exams to focus on. I will normally focus on something and then move on to the other. So, if an exam period is coming, you'll see me slowly fade away and I'll come back after the exam period is over. I do hope that you could understand and could put up with that if you ever consider me. Just another personal sidenote for considerations points. As you can tell, I put in quite an amount of effort in this application and I really did.
Thank you for taking up your precious time to read this application. I do hope that you forgive me if anything I've stated in this application has offended another party. If I seem to be rude in this application at some parts *cough* Number 10 *cough* I do feel sorry but I just needed to provide an example to support my view. I hope that you'll take it that I'm serious with this application. Thank you once again for reading.
Your average mincrafter,

IGN: Poldy101
Name: Juan
Age: 15
Skype: jvellisochoa
Position: Admin but if denied I would also love to be a Moderator
A little information about myself: My name is Juan I am a student currently and attend school. I am a very bright person (in my opinion) and am ahead a grade in mathematics. I can play the guitar and I am a computer gamer and programmer.
Time able to dedicate towards your server: I personally have a large sum of time on my hands. I only take one musical instrument outside of school, which frees up my time a lot. In order to balance this time I plan what I need to do every day. Currently I am holding 1 separate staff position (which I will list below with evidence), which is very time consuming. However if I am accepted and given the privilege to work with the your server and its staff team I would immediately leave such positions. On an estimate between practicing my musical instrument, doing schoolwork, and moderating the server, I would be able to spend around 3-5 hours on your server and the Forums. I understand that Moderating is a very demanding job, but I am prepared to take it on.
Past experience as staff: I have held 5 staff positions in the past. Unfortunately I can only provide evidence for four of them. I am currently a Head-Mod on Music craft this is a low scale server mainly because previously it was a minigame server. Lack of funds forced us to downgrade to survival and creative. Although I didn’t deal with a lot of people there, it taught me how to deal with minigames contrary to survival. Also, I hold an admin position on an opening server called Skyrim craft this server is starting out so there isn’t much to say about it. The website is up but server is currently down for maintenance. Lastly I hold a T-Mod position on a server called cracked cube I deal with around 7 people a day here but the owner of this server has taught me a lot about professionalism. There is one more server but unfortunately it shut down due to lack of funds I held a head-admin position on it and I was around the only active staff on it. By myself I handled around 30-50 people on a day. This server taught me how to handle large crowds, which I believe will be especially helpful on the server. I held one more moderator staff position but I have no proof of it so I will not be mentioning it here.
Why do I want to be staff: Many people have different reasons to apply for staff. Mine will sound a little cheesy but its true. I purely enjoy helping people. It gives me a sense of gratitude when I show someone how to do things the right way or help someone with their issues. I am a good problem solver and I have an analytical brain. These traits make my job easy and fun. I know that staff isn’t meant to be a fun job, but keeping a cheerful attitude on job and being friendly to players makes more people want to come back to the server. I have two modes when being staff; one cheery light mood when I joke around and talk with players and a serious mood when dealing with issues. I NEVER allow these two to mix together because that could jeopardize my position and probably annoy some players. Lastly, I know that certain people apply for the rank because they think it will bring them respect and make them cool. I have never considered this as a reason to apply and I frankly hate these types of people. They often end up abusing their power and getting banned. I have never abused and will never abuse. I am applying because I believe that I have what it takes to help the server.
Why do I think I should be staff (excellent question by me of course): I consider this question one of the most important questions on a staff application, it allows me to discuss my qualifications so prepare for a long answer. There is a very clear reason in my head that makes me believe I am suitable to be staff, experience. Others may downplay experience but it has taught me a lot. From all of my different staff positions I have learned different things. First, my strategy for dealing with rule breaking players, I have reviewed lots of applications where the person says I will warn them three times and than mute them. Honestly I hate this strategy; its very robotic and the player will probably appeal and do it again. My personal preference to dealing with such issues is convincing. I like to try to talk a spammer out of spamming. In my opinion showing them how what they are doing is pointless and really does nothing can possibly convince them not to do it again. Of course this doesn’t always work than in that case I have to mute them. Banning to me is a last resort. I always oppose banning players unless it is obvious that they must be banned or it’s a last resort. In my view servers love their members and all that banning does is remove members. If we can change the view of such troublemakers than we can have a great community base. Also I understand how to treat a staff rank. When I have been given the privilege to serve on a staff team I take it very seriously. I will joke around with others but I have learned to respect the rank. Being staff will not make me cool or give me respect but it is my goal to help and server the players of this server. I understand that under no circumstances should I abuse and that I have been given a chance to be a part of the staff team, a chance I should be very grateful for. I hope that I can qualify above mediocre and be exceptional. My experience in the past has taught me how to deal with people, how to inspect and analyze a situation, and how to respect everyone. Lastly I do not have anger issues and I don’t rage. I have learned how to keep my cool even in the most frustrating situations. It will be very rare that you see me genuinely ed off at someone. I have handled many situations in the past and I believe that the challenges I will face on your server will be within by ability. Thank you.
Final statement:
Thank you for reading my application if you have further questions please contact me on Skype. I hope you consider me as a candidate for staff on your excellent server. Also if you would like to see the servers I have worked on previously, please add me on skype and I will talk to you there.
We will be looking at all applications as soon as possible!

2) Any past experience in the field or something similar?
Yes, If you have ever played Minetime.com ; I developed Runescape on there server. Right off, my job was to set all permissions for plugins, and install a RPG Plugin. I modified a few plugins and submitted them to the developer, A certain plugin had to be calculated at a reasonable rate and I did the calculations.(Skill plugin)- The Project did not last very long(Around a year) ; nonetheless it gave me good experience. Also, at the time not there were not very many good RPG Plugins, so I used Java skills I learned in a class my Sophmore year to adjust syntax accordingly.(Eclipse)-In other words expand features and make certain plugins more user friendly. To sum up most of my role, is adjusting plugins to conform to a players needs; often plugins gave little to no help if any at all to a player. My role was to assign useful commands and make sure players wouldn't run into trouble.(Plus, when developers installed features they need(like vault and various ones, I would make sure there were no errors in permissions). After all, we wouldn't want players being able to delete blocks due to back permissions. Of course this all sounds easy, but we had over 30 plugins and 7 staff roles. Inheriting classes was not that simple, many issues would have arose without me.
4) Skype and IGN?Modzezima is Ign, and my skype is [email protected]
5) What is your typical way of resolving a conflict? Be specific
Well, I don't usually work with players much in my roles, but way back I ran my own 60 player-ish server. I was the Head builder, since I hosted it on my own computer. Many players argued over what role they could have and I often was entangled in heated debates. My solution was to only address issues if my rules were broken(such as spam, anything that took others rights away to have fun). Other than that I just said Pm it out. Of course, hackers were not tolerated, but anti hacking plugins at the time were readily available.
6) How can I trust that you are going to be a dedicated employee?
I enjoy working on servers, and have never ran a prison server. I think it would be very interesting to build or assist in plugin designing to conform to a prison server. Or at least, provide good solutions to installing certain plugins.(I am very good at knocking down laggy plugins)-removing certain plugins and adding features to individual plugins).
7) Are you familiar with plugins? If so name some:
Yes many rpg plugins, heroes, and many others
8) Developer only: How much a day can you work?
I have around 2 hours dedicated to programming, I could substitute MC developing for it. Also, I have much spare time after classes.
9) Anything else that I should know that may earn this application some consideration points?
I have worked with a server that has over 500 players daily, I learned a lot about implementation of files and how to save players information.
