Hey guys my name is Blake but you can call me Flames. I am currently waiting for my server to be made by a host. Triangle is the host so its taking a while but in about 1 hour it will be finished and ready to join. so I decided to make this thread to get some staff. EVERY RANK Is available so if you want to apply for a high rank I am fine with that decision. I am looking for the ranks below.
Co-Owner
The co-owner will be the most important role on the server. He will have to have a lot of experience in
everything really. Its a big responsibility so it is extremely hard to get, and there will only be 2 so try your hardest
to make the best application you can. The co-owner will also have to be on at least once a day to help the server.
Developer
The developer is EXTREMELY important for this server since I will be having minigames. The minigames will
be easy but this rank does require knowledge of command blocks, Redstone, coding, and even plugins. I will need
3 developers for the server.
Server-Manager
The server-manager will manage meetings,staff,sales and more. He must also be on a lot like the Co-Owner.
I am looking for ONLY 1 Manager so work hard for this as well.
Head-Administrator
The head-administrator is the leader of all the admins. He must be a good leader and watch chat carefully. They must be
active and have experience. I am looking for 1 head-admin
Administrator
The administrator is responsible for the same work as the Head-Admin. It must be active and watch chat, and help at
anything that the head-admin sais.
Head-Moderator
The head-moderator is the leader of all moderators it must be a good leader as well as the admin
I need 1 Head-Mod
Moderator
The moderator is responsible with the same jobs as the Head-Mod. It must follow orders from higher ranks.
I need 3 Moderators
Helper
The helper must watch chat really good and report/kick/ban/tempban anyone who does not follow the rules.
I need 4 helpers
Builder
The builder must have pics of its builds. It must build and be ready to build every day. Like I said it must
be active because they will build a lot of minigame maps and more!
Be creative with your format. I don't care what it is. You MUST include your Username,Age,Skype or Email, proof if builder, and what rank you are applying for
About me: I have lots of fun off and on the computer and I am very loyal and reliable, I take matters seriously but I also like to have fun with others. I feel I would make a great admin because of how much I help people on the other servers I play. I have been admin on two other servers and I'm also a builder on a current server, the owners of all three servers would agree that I am very trustworthy and dependable.

Applying for: Admin, or anything you think best suits this application!
Why You Want To Be Staff?: Since time has been passing through my 2 years of playing Minecraft, i have seen many different kinds of servers. Some of them have turned out successful, and some are shut down. I want to help servers grow, in community, popularity, and over all success. That is why i am applying for Admin, so i can improve upon these things
Daily Activity: 3-5 hours weekdays, 4-7 hours weekends, unless i have a certain event scheduled.
Past experience: I Have Been An Administrator On 2 Other Servers, Moderator On 3, And Co-Owner on another.
Name: Dakota IGN: DakotaKitteh Age: 21 Applying for: Head-Administrator or Administrator E-mail: [email protected] I would like to apply to be either Head-Administrator or Administrator. I was the Co-Owner of a server that was full constantly for a couple months but that was a couple years ago and it's gone now, and honestly I can't remember the name. I'm good at spotting hacks and fair with everybody, though. Trustworthy. Mature. I usually play a few hours a day at least, but there will be days I can't get on. I would try to help as much as possible, either way. Thank you, hope to hear from you. -DakotaKitteh
Why do you think you'd be best out of all other applicants?
To begin with, I feel I should take part in the staffing community here because I ensure a large portion of qualified time as well as extreme experiences and a sincere inclination in moderating over the chat and providing the necessary satisfaction to players in need of any particular assistance. I am a person who shares a natural obligation and heavy dedication to those in need of a correct moderation. I will be there to help them with confusion/questions for hours worth of time as well! My highest priority when it comes to staffing is that I focus on most is moderating over servers. I am not really a person who wants to dedicate themselves to formulating new structures or residing to head-to-head combat. I find it more intriguing to supply players with a jubilant sense of feeling from my overall performance. I would be sure to keep dissonance from progressing to ghastly circumstances. I would basically focus on the whole idea of my existence to staffing within this community, which is simply stated by pursuing a largely said portion of time spent on the server, encompassing the chat within a correctly moderated state, assuring the prosperity of attentiveness to answer all questions to my highest potential, keeping in touch with other fellow staff about suggestions/ideas/answers, and securing the server from all egregious irrelevancy.I am also special and different in lots of ways. First off, my mentality is basically to work hard and play later. I do everything with the best of my ability or at least die trying. My effort is genuine and I am a very nice and reasonable person. I treat people with respect and I take stands based on facts and evidence, not because they are my friends or I know them. I am also a very neat and organized person. I may be considered a neat freak but the results pay off. Everything will be organized and in tip top shape. My experience also plays a huge role in who I am. I know lots of things and I have years of experience in running a team. I know what it takes to run a tip top team and how to maintain it. In the end, I have a lot of traits that would make me the ideal person for the job.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.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 pissed 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.I am that guy you see online on a server that has 200 slots available and only one person online, that being me. I am that guy you see at 3 O'Clock in the morning playing Minecraft for no apparent reason on a cool Summer night. Dedication is what I lack in the past server I was working for and that was the reason why I quit or the server ended up being closed. I can assure you that I am very dedicated with everything. I will answer personal messages within a few hours, I can answer Skype messages the moment you send them. It's how I work and how I live my life. My job as a forum moderator requires me to be active so I am always on some sort of electronic device regardless of the time, area, and day. In return I expect my peers to be dedicated as well. The least I can do is return the favor by being active. 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 or Administrating is a very demanding job, but I am prepared to take it on. 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 Cracked cube 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 Co-Owner position on a server me and my friend made I deal with around 7 people a day here but the other staff members 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.I've had a lot of experience on many servers. I have had all the positions that basically gives me complete control over the server. These can vary from , Head-mod, Head Admin, General Manager, and such. As I said before, managing a server is nothing new to me and managing servers is what I enjoy best.
Extra Question:
Scenario: What would you do if someone was advertising another server?
Like I said before, the tactic of 3 warnings and then a ban system is very robotic. On the other hand there are two things that make me ban people automatically,hacking and advertising, these two are an exception to which I will not take lightly. There are many reasons for this, one hacking ruins the fun on a server,which is to have fun, and advertising takes our players away. So if advertising was to happen I would ban then on the spot no questions asked.
Scenario: What would you do if another moderator was abusing, teleporting to players, griefing, and banning people?
Well this question is hard, let me rephrase it"what if a trustworthy staff member and friend was found abusing power". Now that is very different, when players do something it's easier to handle it since you do not know them per se, but a staff member although hard, has to learn the consequences of there actions just like very other player has. Saying this I would always talk to the staff member see why he/she did it.I have been in many scenarios where staff members, trusty staff members, were caught abusing power. After a week of investigating ,it was found that the staff member was hacked and his account was being manipulated. So in end it depends on the staff member and his actions prior to the abusing.
Plugin Knowledge?
Having owned a few servers, its very crucial to be able to work with plugins. Without it, a server can be as good as nothing even with a million dollar idea. I know how to manage plugins and use them to create the best experience for the player. Imagine an empty pallet and the paint is plugins. You need to create something amazing with those plugins, those are your main source of art. I can do all of that and a lot more. I myself have a few good friends who can work with Java and Bukkit Plugins and I am able to get some amazing custom made plugins done. A server just isn't a server without the right and amazing plugins.
Can I build:
I have created some amazing things with a group of builders and it always amazes me how much creativity a group of people can bring out. It is just truly amazing to be able to create a great structure using your creativity and a group of friends. I do not have many pictures but I do have a video. This is one of the first builds I did all by myself and without World Edit. After finishing I was inspired to do more and thats when it all took off.
Am I more technical or social:
When it comes to technical I am VERY technical. In times of a job I am very serious and I only expect the best. I'm a type of leader who is willing to get down and work along with the staff on the server. This is where my social part comes in. Everywhere I have worked in I made some great friends and I have never received a complaint ever. I am very professional and I treat everyone as I wanted to be treated.
How Would Your Best Friend Describe You: Well, accordingly to my friends overall speculation, I'm sure he'd qualify me as a very precisely wise and rather “debatable” person. As he has long come to comprehend, I in fact find a sincere inclination in providing a rather heavy set of vocabulary to my writing pieces. It is one of my favorable habits.
What Is Your Greatest Weakness: Personally stated, I can simply claim that one of my highest weaknesses is living in a state of depression. I am generally a very jubilant soul. According to my past experiences, I have attempted to mend those of a sentimental mind. Ones who besieged themselves in a form of egregious melancholy. It had soon come to haunt my being, feeding off of my essence and depriving me of my natural ways. At that moment, I couldn't keep dedicating my very life to those who couldn't seek ways to walk on there own.
What Is Your Greatest Achievement: Forever and always I have found a sincere inclination in supporting people, writing essays/stories, drawing, and giving my honest aphorisms. Yet, the main idea I am going to focus on as my highest achievement is supporting others. As you have come to understand, I consist of a very ecstatic personally. I can be considerably frivolous at times while still maintaining my very perceptive disposition. I find an exceptional amount of prosperity when I help others seek there very own place of happiness. Simply said, I feel there is nothing better than keeping others satisfied as they should be!
What Are Your Long-Term Goals: A few of my long-term goals I look forward to in my nearing future are to develop a very spectacular amount of vocabulary to incorporate to my writings/quotes, learn to draw detailed and well drawn realistic animals, and be sure to always be there for someone who yearns to feel welcome in this world of illusion. Out of all of these few goals, I look forward to helping people most. I completely comprehend the misfortunes of this world.
What Major Obstacles Have You Overcome: One major obstacle I have overcome within my life, were the sincere struggles of my personal problems. There was once a time where I was in a hole of trickery and delusion. All I had managed to grasp was the tenacious lachrymose of loss and deceiving ways. It was almost as if there was no where to go and no one to come to. I was flatly lost, dilapidated from the sadness. It was until one of my family members had come into my life and taught me the ways of a true heart, that I had learned we all had reasoning within our very soul. I had come to learn that we all are capable of the same power, it's just that not always do we use it correctly.
What Unique Experiences Separate You From Others: I have to say, a major experience that differentiates me from others encounters, is the fact that I can simply claim heaven and hell along with demonic deities are existent to this rather cruel world without a single sheer of hesitation (my own form of proof.) It is a long story that I prefer not say (I feel that it shouldn't simply be rambled about unless necessary come to catechize by that individual.)
What would you say would be grounds for a global server ban?
Well a ban is something staff does to ensure the safety and comfortable environment for players to play in. There are two things that would cause an auto-ban, no questions asked, hacking and advertising. Now these are the major bans, why you ask well to start off hacking causes unfair disadvantage in pvp, causing players to rage which will ultimately causes them to leave the server. This is not something that neither staff, nor players would want to happen which will cause us to say good bye to one of our players. The second is advertising, this is something that not only is bannable, but is actually one of the few things that players can do that royally pisses me off. The audacity someone has to have to go on a server and advertise is something I will never comprehend. Now the reason that it get's me being into an austere guy with it, is that it causes players to try the ip the advertiser gives out. So if I was a Mod, I would instantly ban both hackers and advertisers with clear evidence. Now since I get accepted as a Helper not Mod, in a situation of someone hacking or advertising I would have to deter my original way of dealing with them. As a Helper, if I saw a player advertising I would permute get evidence and tell a higher ranking staff to ban immediately. As for a hacker I would get evidence and just report it to a Mod or Admin. Thats my top to insta-bans and how I would handle them, in a Mods perspective and a Helpers point of view on the matter.
Do you work well with others?
I work amazingly with others, as I respect immensely my superiors. I think that comes from my respectfulness
Hypothetical Questions
Two players are complaining and requesting assistance from a staff member, you're the only one online, how would you deal with the situation?
Well although not all players have this, the answer to something like this happening is patience. Patience is key to life, without it we would be in a world of strains. Saying that if there were three even four people msging me questions, I would calmly ask everyone to be patient and that I will answer all there questions accordingly.If people were to get impatient, and start cursing and calling me a lazy staff I would tell people that I am trying my best and that I am only human. The trick to always have a smile on your face, does the trick to calm down people. So I would always stay calm, and all I ask for in return to players for my kind answers would be there patience. I am going to leave a little poem.
Patience
Do you know why the leading cause of death, is accidents?
It's because people are impatient.
If that, man didn't speed up, to get to work early, those three children wouldn't have died in a car accident.
If that child didn't turn the oven heat up, to get his cake baked faster, his family wouldn't have died in a fire.
If that woman didn't leave the door open, so she could get her groceries faster, her dog wouldn't have gotten out and killed a baby.
Get the picture?
Patience is the key to life
Two players are fighting in server chat and causing grief to everyone else on the server, what do you think would be the best way to go about difusing the situation?
Well this is a bit complicated if you think about it. In a game like faction and pvp, there will always and instantaneously be many chat fight. Reason being that people get mad when they are raided or die in pvp. So in some circumstances I will let it pass, some times players need to get there anger out. Now saying this if a chat battle begins to get out of hand into racist slurs or just language get out of hand I will have to get involved. I would first calm then down by telling them that if they don't stop I will mute them. After calmed down I will get each of the players side of the story, with that I will basically put in a verdict to either mute them if it gets to out of hand. Give them a warning or just try to fix the problem that caused the argument prior to the fight.
Why do you think you'd be best out of all other applicants?
To begin with, I feel I should take part in the staffing community here because I ensure a large portion of qualified time as well as extreme experiences and a sincere inclination in moderating over the chat and providing the necessary satisfaction to players in need of any particular assistance.

Yet, the main idea I am going to focus on as my highest achievement is supporting others. As you have come to understand, I consist of a very ecstatic personally. I can be considerably frivolous at times while still maintaining my very perceptive disposition. I find an exceptional amount of prosperity when I help others seek there very own place of happiness. Simply said, I feel there is nothing better than keeping others satisfied as they should be!
What Are Your Long-Term Goals: A few of my long-term goals I look forward to in my nearing future are to develop a very spectacular amount of vocabulary to incorporate to my writings/quotes, learn to draw detailed and well drawn realistic animals, and be sure to always be there for someone who yearns to feel welcome in this world of illusion. Out of all of these few goals, I look forward to helping people most. I completely comprehend the misfortunes of this world.
What Major Obstacles Have You Overcome: One major obstacle I have overcome within my life, were the sincere struggles of my personal problems. There was once a time where I was in a hole of trickery and delusion. All I had managed to grasp was the tenacious lachrymose of loss and deceiving ways. It was almost as if there was no where to go and no one to come to. I was flatly lost, dilapidated from the sadness. It was until one of my family members had come into my life and taught me the ways of a true heart, that I had learned we all had reasoning within our very soul. I had come to learn that we all are capable of the same power, it's just that not always do we use it correctly.
What Unique Experiences Separate You From Others: I have to say, a major experience that differentiates me from others encounters, is the fact that I can simply claim heaven and hell along with demonic deities are existent to this rather cruel world without a single sheer of hesitation (my own form of proof.) It is a long story that I prefer not say (I feel that it shouldn't simply be rambled about unless necessary come to catechize by that individual.)
What would you say would be grounds for a global server ban?
Well a ban is something staff does to ensure the safety and comfortable environment for players to play in. There are two things that would cause an auto-ban, no questions asked, hacking and advertising. Now these are the major bans, why you ask well to start off hacking causes unfair disadvantage in pvp, causing players to rage which will ultimately causes them to leave the server. This is not something that neither staff, nor players would want to happen which will cause us to say good bye to one of our players. The second is advertising, this is something that not only is bannable, but is actually one of the few things that players can do that royally pisses me off. The audacity someone has to have to go on a server and advertise is something I will never comprehend. Now the reason that it get's me being into an austere guy with it, is that it causes players to try the ip the advertiser gives out. So if I was a Mod, I would instantly ban both hackers and advertisers with clear evidence. Now since I get accepted as a Helper not Mod, in a situation of someone hacking or advertising I would have to deter my original way of dealing with them. As a Helper, if I saw a player advertising I would permute get evidence and tell a higher ranking staff to ban immediately. As for a hacker I would get evidence and just report it to a Mod or Admin. Thats my top to insta-bans and how I would handle them, in a Mods perspective and a Helpers point of view on the matter.
Do you work well with others?
I work amazingly with others, as I respect immensely my superiors. I think that comes from my respectfulness
Hypothetical Questions
Two players are complaining and requesting assistance from a staff member, you're the only one online, how would you deal with the situation?
Well although not all players have this, the answer to something like this happening is patience. Patience is key to life, without it we would be in a world of strains. Saying that if there were three even four people msging me questions, I would calmly ask everyone to be patient and that I will answer all there questions accordingly.If people were to get impatient, and start cursing and calling me a lazy staff I would tell people that I am trying my best and that I am only human. The trick to always have a smile on your face, does the trick to calm down people. So I would always stay calm, and all I ask for in return to players for my kind answers would be there patience. I am going to leave a little poem.
Patience
Do you know why the leading cause of death, is accidents?
It's because people are impatient.
If that, man didn't speed up, to get to work early, those three children wouldn't have died in a car accident.
If that child didn't turn the oven heat up, to get his cake baked faster, his family wouldn't have died in a fire.
If that woman didn't leave the door open, so she could get her groceries faster, her dog wouldn't have gotten out and killed a baby.
Get the picture?
Patience is the key to life
Two players are fighting in server chat and causing grief to everyone else on the server, what do you think would be the best way to go about difusing the situation?
Well this is a bit complicated if you think about it. In a game like faction and pvp, there will always and instantaneously be many chat fight. Reason being that people get mad when they are raided or die in pvp. So in some circumstances I will let it pass, some times players need to get there anger out. Now saying this if a chat battle begins to get out of hand into racist slurs or just language get out of hand I will have to get involved. I would first calm then down by telling them that if they don't stop I will mute them. After calmed down I will get each of the players side of the story, with that I will basically put in a verdict to either mute them if it gets to out of hand. Give them a warning or just try to fix the problem that caused the argument prior to the fight.

I would like to apply to be either Head-Administrator or Administrator.

I'm good at spotting hacks and fair with everybody, though. Trustworthy. Mature.
I usually play a few hours a day at least, but there will be days I can't get on. I would try to help as much as possible, either way.
Thank you, hope to hear from you.

Hi! So I'm trying my hardest to write this application because I really want to be a part of this server. Although a lot of people write a huge, long, and amazing applications, I'm going to try my best to portray my argument of why I should be considered for working on your server.
Name: My name is Kiara. I am a girl but don't put that against me. My In game-name is C00kiem0nter23
Age: I'm 14. I am somewhat young, but, like I said about being a girl, don't put that against me because I very mature for my age.
Skype: Kiara.blah
Rank: I would like Head-Moderator the best, but a regular moderator would also be fine.
Experience: I've read quite a few other applications and they've had lots of experience with working for other servers, but sadly I don't. But I want you to know that there's a first for everything, right? I'm always up for learning something new. I've been playing minecraft for a while now. I started with the pocket edition, but then I really wanted to experience more with minecraft so I finally bought the pc edition. (this was quite a few years ago). I know a lot about minecraft, but sure someone might have more knowledge than me, but like I said, I'm always up for learning something new.
Am I active?: I come on minecraft everyday for at least 6+ hours. (I know it doesn't sound like it, but I also have a life outside of the computer. Just though i'd point that out lol) It is my life and my passion and in the future I hope to work with creating and selling video games.
More about me: I want you to know that I am very responsible, and trust-worthy. I am very loyal to people I don't even know. But best of all, I'm great with people. People have always told me I have the best communication skills anyone could have. I have always wanted to work as a moderator because they have to work with people and that is my strength. I feel that when I communicate with people, I get my point across which is very important for a moderator.
Thanks for reading this, I really appreciate that you read this through and I hope that you are considering me as a possible staff worker for your server. If you have any other questions or concerns regarding me and my application, you can always reply to me through Skype.
Thank you once again and I look forward to hearing from you in the near future,

IGN: IceyFlames (You can call me Icey, or Nathan; my real name).
Age: I am 14 years old. (I am not lying about my age, I know some young people actually do for some reason...they're probably pretty desperate to grief xD) And I've been playing Minecraft since the first few updates of Beta, so I think about 3 and a half years or maybe 4.
Why Do You Want To Be Staff: I want to be staff to help people (how? next question will explain), I want to help the server to eventually become the best server in the world of Minecraft, which most servers have no hope of becoming! Also, I like the current server's community, everyone is kind and awesome! I want to help Blake and all of the other current staff to help lead the server to become the best that it could ever be! I also want to be staff because I can troll people from time to time but of course with a higher staff member's permission...JUST KIDDING! My maturity level is probably 8/10, that 2/10 is when I joke around and be a massive troll. I have a great sense of humour you see, so I can help cheer people up on the server pretty easily. JOKE: How did the chicken cross the road? ANSWER: It didn't. The chicken is a lie. I WAS THE ONE WHO CROSSED THE ROAD! HAH! GOOD ONE! I CROSSED THE ROAD TO GET SOME KFC! LOLOLOLOLOLOL! ......Why aren't you laughing?
How Will You Help Flames Network: I will help by being kind to all players so they will accept that the server is a good one and has a kind community, so they will open up and they will have a great time on Flames Network! Also, I will stay loyal to the server and all the staff and do my best. I will not abuse ANY commands whether it even be /tp, and I will dedicate to the server as much as possible. The following sentence does not apply right now since I'm on holidays, but for when my holidays end. I'm sorry that I can not play on weekdays (I might come on MineChat once in a while) because of all the schoolwork I get, sometimes I can play on Friday afternoons, and on weekends. I will put as much effort as possible into helping the server in any area that needs to be worked on when I am online, and I will occasionally go onto MineChat on weekdays just to check on the server and see what's up. I am good with plugins like WorldEdit or simple GroupManager commands, I am good at building complex structures, moderating the chat, what people are doing and I am awesome at being EPIC!!! I can manage a server on my own quite well, but if I had other staff members with me it would be better. If Blake has Steam or Skype, I can add him and message him personally and update/inform him on what's been going on, misbehaviours, great feats, etc. I speak proper English with correct punctuation and spelling, though I do know how to use social language too. (social language is gibberish according to my school teachers XD) I do not argue with other staff as that would cause major problems, I give second chances to people depending on the scenario, and I know how to deal with hackers. When I give warnings, it's 2 warnings (kicks) and then a tempban for 10 min. If people still disobey, I will contact other staff to see what we can do. If you think it should be changed, that's fine just tell me. That's enough information for this question, moving on!
What Staff Rank Do You Want: Well, I'm mainly aiming for Head-Admin or maybe Server Manager (or maybe you already have one... I hope not. XD just kidding! :3), because I feel comfortable in those position and in those positions I can push my skills to the limit. Also, I like being peoples' right hand man so I can be there whenever you need me. I won't rage at the final decision, because it would be an honour to serve Flames Network as any position, and I respect the outcome. I actually prefer Head-Admin better, I don't know why, I just have had some experience with leadership roles in the Administrator area. But I don't mind Server Manager either, not that I think I will get any of those positions. As I said before, I don't care which position I end up in as long as you think it's the correct rank for me and you trust me in that position. It is an honour to serve any server, especially Flames Network because I can see it's already so popular, and all the people are so nice. (That includes you, Blake)
Have You Been Staff On Another Server: Yes, I have had some experience. I was Moderator on quite a popular server with about 50 people on at a time called Realms of Karos, but I resigned due to my busy school life. Then I was Head-Admin on a server that got hacked called DualCraft, and Admin on another small server which closed due to lack of donations called RaidzPvP. (I am sorry that I have not included the IP's, as I have recently bought a new desktop, on which I don't have the Realms of Karos' IP. Realms of Karos didn't ever have a website, and as hard as I could try I couldn't recover the IP of the server, sadly. For the other two servers, it's quite obvious that I don't remember the IP's because 1. the servers don't exist anymore and 2. it was about 1 year and a half ago when I deleted them. I apologise once again)
Comments: Thank you for reading my application, please consider me as a member of your staff, I apologise that this application is super long, my Steam is: iceyflamez97 OR Mr. Cuddles and my Skype is: dark_vortex_wolf if you need to contact me (Sorry, I don't have a mic yet so we can't call, but I seldom call with anyone but my friends and family anyways because it's quite awkward talking to someone you don't really know well). In all, I will do my best if I get accepted to staff and I will contribute to the server with all I've got!
Thanks Again,
-IceyFlames
P.S. I don't mean to make this application long to impress, but to put as much information in as possible so you know me better and know what I can really do, and if you need to know more you can test me ingame if needed.
Hey guys my name is Blake but you can call me Flames. I am currently waiting for my server to be made by a host. Triangle is the host so its taking a while but in about 1 hour it will be finished and ready to join. so I decided to make this thread to get some staff. EVERY RANK Is available so if you want to apply for a high rank I am fine with that decision. I am looking for the ranks below.
Co-Owner
The co-owner will be the most important role on the server. He will have to have a lot of experience in
everything really. Its a big responsibility so it is extremely hard to get, and there will only be 2 so try your hardest
to make the best application you can. The co-owner will also have to be on at least once a day to help the server.
Developer
The developer is EXTREMELY important for this server since I will be having minigames. The minigames will
be easy but this rank does require knowledge of command blocks, Redstone, coding, and even plugins. I will need
3 developers for the server.
Server-Manager
The server-manager will manage meetings,staff,sales and more. He must also be on a lot like the Co-Owner.
I am looking for ONLY 1 Manager so work hard for this as well.
Head-Administrator
The head-administrator is the leader of all the admins. He must be a good leader and watch chat carefully. They must be
active and have experience. I am looking for 1 head-admin
Administrator
The administrator is responsible for the same work as the Head-Admin. It must be active and watch chat, and help at
anything that the head-admin sais.
Head-Moderator
The head-moderator is the leader of all moderators it must be a good leader as well as the admin
I need 1 Head-Mod
Moderator
The moderator is responsible with the same jobs as the Head-Mod. It must follow orders from higher ranks.
I need 3 Moderators
Helper
The helper must watch chat really good and report/kick/ban/tempban anyone who does not follow the rules.
I need 4 helpers
Builder
The builder must have pics of its builds. It must build and be ready to build every day. Like I said it must
be active because they will build a lot of minigame maps and more!
==============================================================================================
The format
Be creative with your format. I don't care what it is. You MUST include your Username,Age,Skype or Email, proof if builder, and what rank you are applying for
Thanks for reading now you can apply!

Main Questions
Why do you think you'd be best out of all other applicants?
To begin with, I feel I should take part in the staffing community here because I ensure a large portion of qualified time as well as extreme experiences and a sincere inclination in moderating over the chat and providing the necessary satisfaction to players in need of any particular assistance. I am a person who shares a natural obligation and heavy dedication to those in need of a correct moderation. I will be there to help them with confusion/questions for hours worth of time as well! My highest priority when it comes to staffing is that I focus on most is moderating over servers. I am not really a person who wants to dedicate themselves to formulating new structures or residing to head-to-head combat. I find it more intriguing to supply players with a jubilant sense of feeling from my overall performance. I would be sure to keep dissonance from progressing to ghastly circumstances. I would basically focus on the whole idea of my existence to staffing within this community, which is simply stated by pursuing a largely said portion of time spent on the server, encompassing the chat within a correctly moderated state, assuring the prosperity of attentiveness to answer all questions to my highest potential, keeping in touch with other fellow staff about suggestions/ideas/answers, and securing the server from all egregious irrelevancy.I am also special and different in lots of ways. First off, my mentality is basically to work hard and play later. I do everything with the best of my ability or at least die trying. My effort is genuine and I am a very nice and reasonable person. I treat people with respect and I take stands based on facts and evidence, not because they are my friends or I know them. I am also a very neat and organized person. I may be considered a neat freak but the results pay off. Everything will be organized and in tip top shape. My experience also plays a huge role in who I am. I know lots of things and I have years of experience in running a team. I know what it takes to run a tip top team and how to maintain it. In the end, I have a lot of traits that would make me the ideal person for the job.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.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 pissed 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.I am that guy you see online on a server that has 200 slots available and only one person online, that being me. I am that guy you see at 3 O'Clock in the morning playing Minecraft for no apparent reason on a cool Summer night. Dedication is what I lack in the past server I was working for and that was the reason why I quit or the server ended up being closed. I can assure you that I am very dedicated with everything. I will answer personal messages within a few hours, I can answer Skype messages the moment you send them. It's how I work and how I live my life. My job as a forum moderator requires me to be active so I am always on some sort of electronic device regardless of the time, area, and day. In return I expect my peers to be dedicated as well. The least I can do is return the favor by being active. 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 or Administrating is a very demanding job, but I am prepared to take it on. 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 Cracked cube 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 Co-Owner position on a server me and my friend made I deal with around 7 people a day here but the other staff members 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.I've had a lot of experience on many servers. I have had all the positions that basically gives me complete control over the server. These can vary from , Head-mod, Head Admin, General Manager, and such. As I said before, managing a server is nothing new to me and managing servers is what I enjoy best.
Extra Question:
Scenario: What would you do if someone was advertising another server?
Like I said before, the tactic of 3 warnings and then a ban system is very robotic. On the other hand there are two things that make me ban people automatically,hacking and advertising, these two are an exception to which I will not take lightly. There are many reasons for this, one hacking ruins the fun on a server,which is to have fun, and advertising takes our players away. So if advertising was to happen I would ban then on the spot no questions asked.
Scenario: What would you do if another moderator was abusing, teleporting to players, griefing, and banning people?
Well this question is hard, let me rephrase it"what if a trustworthy staff member and friend was found abusing power". Now that is very different, when players do something it's easier to handle it since you do not know them per se, but a staff member although hard, has to learn the consequences of there actions just like very other player has. Saying this I would always talk to the staff member see why he/she did it.I have been in many scenarios where staff members, trusty staff members, were caught abusing power. After a week of investigating ,it was found that the staff member was hacked and his account was being manipulated. So in end it depends on the staff member and his actions prior to the abusing.
Plugin Knowledge?
Having owned a few servers, its very crucial to be able to work with plugins. Without it, a server can be as good as nothing even with a million dollar idea. I know how to manage plugins and use them to create the best experience for the player. Imagine an empty pallet and the paint is plugins. You need to create something amazing with those plugins, those are your main source of art. I can do all of that and a lot more. I myself have a few good friends who can work with Java and Bukkit Plugins and I am able to get some amazing custom made plugins done. A server just isn't a server without the right and amazing plugins.
Can I build:
I have created some amazing things with a group of builders and it always amazes me how much creativity a group of people can bring out. It is just truly amazing to be able to create a great structure using your creativity and a group of friends. I do not have many pictures but I do have a video. This is one of the first builds I did all by myself and without World Edit. After finishing I was inspired to do more and thats when it all took off.
Am I more technical or social:
When it comes to technical I am VERY technical. In times of a job I am very serious and I only expect the best. I'm a type of leader who is willing to get down and work along with the staff on the server. This is where my social part comes in. Everywhere I have worked in I made some great friends and I have never received a complaint ever. I am very professional and I treat everyone as I wanted to be treated.
How Would Your Best Friend Describe You: Well, accordingly to my friends overall speculation, I'm sure he'd qualify me as a very precisely wise and rather “debatable” person. As he has long come to comprehend, I in fact find a sincere inclination in providing a rather heavy set of vocabulary to my writing pieces. It is one of my favorable habits.
What Is Your Greatest Weakness: Personally stated, I can simply claim that one of my highest weaknesses is living in a state of depression. I am generally a very jubilant soul. According to my past experiences, I have attempted to mend those of a sentimental mind. Ones who besieged themselves in a form of egregious melancholy. It had soon come to haunt my being, feeding off of my essence and depriving me of my natural ways. At that moment, I couldn't keep dedicating my very life to those who couldn't seek ways to walk on there own.
What Is Your Greatest Achievement: Forever and always I have found a sincere inclination in supporting people, writing essays/stories, drawing, and giving my honest aphorisms. Yet, the main idea I am going to focus on as my highest achievement is supporting others. As you have come to understand, I consist of a very ecstatic personally. I can be considerably frivolous at times while still maintaining my very perceptive disposition. I find an exceptional amount of prosperity when I help others seek there very own place of happiness. Simply said, I feel there is nothing better than keeping others satisfied as they should be!
What Are Your Long-Term Goals: A few of my long-term goals I look forward to in my nearing future are to develop a very spectacular amount of vocabulary to incorporate to my writings/quotes, learn to draw detailed and well drawn realistic animals, and be sure to always be there for someone who yearns to feel welcome in this world of illusion. Out of all of these few goals, I look forward to helping people most. I completely comprehend the misfortunes of this world.
What Major Obstacles Have You Overcome: One major obstacle I have overcome within my life, were the sincere struggles of my personal problems. There was once a time where I was in a hole of trickery and delusion. All I had managed to grasp was the tenacious lachrymose of loss and deceiving ways. It was almost as if there was no where to go and no one to come to. I was flatly lost, dilapidated from the sadness. It was until one of my family members had come into my life and taught me the ways of a true heart, that I had learned we all had reasoning within our very soul. I had come to learn that we all are capable of the same power, it's just that not always do we use it correctly.
What Unique Experiences Separate You From Others: I have to say, a major experience that differentiates me from others encounters, is the fact that I can simply claim heaven and hell along with demonic deities are existent to this rather cruel world without a single sheer of hesitation (my own form of proof.) It is a long story that I prefer not say (I feel that it shouldn't simply be rambled about unless necessary come to catechize by that individual.)
What would you say would be grounds for a global server ban?
Well a ban is something staff does to ensure the safety and comfortable environment for players to play in. There are two things that would cause an auto-ban, no questions asked, hacking and advertising. Now these are the major bans, why you ask well to start off hacking causes unfair disadvantage in pvp, causing players to rage which will ultimately causes them to leave the server. This is not something that neither staff, nor players would want to happen which will cause us to say good bye to one of our players. The second is advertising, this is something that not only is bannable, but is actually one of the few things that players can do that royally pisses me off. The audacity someone has to have to go on a server and advertise is something I will never comprehend. Now the reason that it get's me being into an austere guy with it, is that it causes players to try the ip the advertiser gives out. So if I was a Mod, I would instantly ban both hackers and advertisers with clear evidence. Now since I get accepted as a Helper not Mod, in a situation of someone hacking or advertising I would have to deter my original way of dealing with them. As a Helper, if I saw a player advertising I would permute get evidence and tell a higher ranking staff to ban immediately. As for a hacker I would get evidence and just report it to a Mod or Admin. Thats my top to insta-bans and how I would handle them, in a Mods perspective and a Helpers point of view on the matter.
Do you work well with others?
I work amazingly with others, as I respect immensely my superiors. I think that comes from my respectfulness
Hypothetical Questions
Two players are complaining and requesting assistance from a staff member, you're the only one online, how would you deal with the situation?
Well although not all players have this, the answer to something like this happening is patience. Patience is key to life, without it we would be in a world of strains. Saying that if there were three even four people msging me questions, I would calmly ask everyone to be patient and that I will answer all there questions accordingly.If people were to get impatient, and start cursing and calling me a lazy staff I would tell people that I am trying my best and that I am only human. The trick to always have a smile on your face, does the trick to calm down people. So I would always stay calm, and all I ask for in return to players for my kind answers would be there patience. I am going to leave a little poem.
Patience
Do you know why the leading cause of death, is accidents?
It's because people are impatient.
If that, man didn't speed up, to get to work early, those three children wouldn't have died in a car accident.
If that child didn't turn the oven heat up, to get his cake baked faster, his family wouldn't have died in a fire.
If that woman didn't leave the door open, so she could get her groceries faster, her dog wouldn't have gotten out and killed a baby.
Get the picture?
Patience is the key to life
Two players are fighting in server chat and causing grief to everyone else on the server, what do you think would be the best way to go about difusing the situation?
Well this is a bit complicated if you think about it. In a game like faction and pvp, there will always and instantaneously be many chat fight. Reason being that people get mad when they are raided or die in pvp. So in some circumstances I will let it pass, some times players need to get there anger out. Now saying this if a chat battle begins to get out of hand into racist slurs or just language get out of hand I will have to get involved. I would first calm then down by telling them that if they don't stop I will mute them. After calmed down I will get each of the players side of the story, with that I will basically put in a verdict to either mute them if it gets to out of hand. Give them a warning or just try to fix the problem that caused the argument prior to the fight.

Applying for: Head-Administrator or Administrator
E-mail: [email protected]

I would like to apply to be either Head-Administrator or Administrator. I was the Co-Owner of a server that was full constantly for a couple months but that was a couple years ago and it's gone now, and honestly I can't remember the name. I'm good at spotting hacks and fair with everybody, though. Trustworthy. Mature.
I usually play a few hours a day at least, but there will be days I can't get on. I would try to help as much as possible, either way.
Thank you, hope to hear from you.

Hi! So I'm trying my hardest to write this application because I really want to be a part of this server. Although a lot of people write a huge, long, and amazing applications, I'm going to try my best to portray my argument of why I should be considered for working on your server.
Name: My name is Kiara. I am a girl but don't put that against me. My In game-name is C00kiem0nter23
Age: I'm 14. I am somewhat young, but, like I said about being a girl, don't put that against me because I very mature for my age.
Skype: Kiara.blah
Rank: I would like Head-Moderator the best, but a regular moderator would also be fine.
Experience: I've read quite a few other applications and they've had lots of experience with working for other servers, but sadly I don't. But I want you to know that there's a first for everything, right? I'm always up for learning something new. I've been playing minecraft for a while now. I started with the pocket edition, but then I really wanted to experience more with minecraft so I finally bought the pc edition. (this was quite a few years ago). I know a lot about minecraft, but sure someone might have more knowledge than me, but like I said, I'm always up for learning something new.
Am I active?: I come on minecraft everyday for at least 6+ hours. (I know it doesn't sound like it, but I also have a life outside of the computer. Just though i'd point that out lol) It is my life and my passion and in the future I hope to work with creating and selling video games.
More about me: I want you to know that I am very responsible, and trust-worthy. I am very loyal to people I don't even know. But best of all, I'm great with people. People have always told me I have the best communication skills anyone could have. I have always wanted to work as a moderator because they have to work with people and that is my strength. I feel that when I communicate with people, I get my point across which is very important for a moderator.
Thanks for reading this, I really appreciate that you read this through and I hope that you are considering me as a possible staff worker for your server. If you have any other questions or concerns regarding me and my application, you can always reply to me through Skype.
Thank you once again and I look forward to hearing from you in the near future,
Kiara (AKA C00kieM0nster23)

OMg im so sorry i typed in so many things and it came out as that
IGN: IceyFlames (You can call me Icey, or Nathan; my real name).
Age: I am 14 years old. (I am not lying about my age, I know some young people actually do for some reason...they're probably pretty desperate to grief xD) And I've been playing Minecraft since the first few updates of Beta, so I think about 3 and a half years or maybe 4.
Why Do You Want To Be Staff: I want to be staff to help people (how? next question will explain), I want to help the server to eventually become the best server in the world of Minecraft, which most servers have no hope of becoming! Also, I like the current server's community, everyone is kind and awesome! I want to help Blake and all of the other current staff to help lead the server to become the best that it could ever be! I also want to be staff because I can troll people from time to time but of course with a higher staff member's permission...JUST KIDDING! My maturity level is probably 8/10, that 2/10 is when I joke around and be a massive troll. I have a great sense of humour you see, so I can help cheer people up on the server pretty easily. JOKE: How did the chicken cross the road? ANSWER: It didn't. The chicken is a lie. I WAS THE ONE WHO CROSSED THE ROAD! HAH! GOOD ONE! I CROSSED THE ROAD TO GET SOME KFC! LOLOLOLOLOLOL! ......Why aren't you laughing?
How Will You Help Flames Network: I will help by being kind to all players so they will accept that the server is a good one and has a kind community, so they will open up and they will have a great time on Flames Network! Also, I will stay loyal to the server and all the staff and do my best. I will not abuse ANY commands whether it even be /tp, and I will dedicate to the server as much as possible. The following sentence does not apply right now since I'm on holidays, but for when my holidays end. I'm sorry that I can not play on weekdays (I might come on MineChat once in a while) because of all the schoolwork I get, sometimes I can play on Friday afternoons, and on weekends. I will put as much effort as possible into helping the server in any area that needs to be worked on when I am online, and I will occasionally go onto MineChat on weekdays just to check on the server and see what's up. I am good with plugins like WorldEdit or simple GroupManager commands, I am good at building complex structures, moderating the chat, what people are doing and I am awesome at being EPIC!!! I can manage a server on my own quite well, but if I had other staff members with me it would be better. If Blake has Steam or Skype, I can add him and message him personally and update/inform him on what's been going on, misbehaviours, great feats, etc. I speak proper English with correct punctuation and spelling, though I do know how to use social language too. (social language is gibberish according to my school teachers XD) I do not argue with other staff as that would cause major problems, I give second chances to people depending on the scenario, and I know how to deal with hackers. When I give warnings, it's 2 warnings (kicks) and then a tempban for 10 min. If people still disobey, I will contact other staff to see what we can do. If you think it should be changed, that's fine just tell me. That's enough information for this question, moving on!
What Staff Rank Do You Want: Well, I'm mainly aiming for Head-Admin or maybe Server Manager (or maybe you already have one... I hope not. XD just kidding! :3), because I feel comfortable in those position and in those positions I can push my skills to the limit. Also, I like being peoples' right hand man so I can be there whenever you need me. I won't rage at the final decision, because it would be an honour to serve Flames Network as any position, and I respect the outcome. I actually prefer Head-Admin better, I don't know why, I just have had some experience with leadership roles in the Administrator area. But I don't mind Server Manager either, not that I think I will get any of those positions. As I said before, I don't care which position I end up in as long as you think it's the correct rank for me and you trust me in that position. It is an honour to serve any server, especially Flames Network because I can see it's already so popular, and all the people are so nice. (That includes you, Blake)
Have You Been Staff On Another Server: Yes, I have had some experience. I was Moderator on quite a popular server with about 50 people on at a time called Realms of Karos, but I resigned due to my busy school life. Then I was Head-Admin on a server that got hacked called DualCraft, and Admin on another small server which closed due to lack of donations called RaidzPvP. (I am sorry that I have not included the IP's, as I have recently bought a new desktop, on which I don't have the Realms of Karos' IP. Realms of Karos didn't ever have a website, and as hard as I could try I couldn't recover the IP of the server, sadly. For the other two servers, it's quite obvious that I don't remember the IP's because 1. the servers don't exist anymore and 2. it was about 1 year and a half ago when I deleted them. I apologise once again)
Comments: Thank you for reading my application, please consider me as a member of your staff, I apologise that this application is super long, my Steam is: iceyflamez97 OR Mr. Cuddles and my Skype is: dark_vortex_wolf if you need to contact me (Sorry, I don't have a mic yet so we can't call, but I seldom call with anyone but my friends and family anyways because it's quite awkward talking to someone you don't really know well). In all, I will do my best if I get accepted to staff and I will contribute to the server with all I've got!
Thanks Again,
-IceyFlames
P.S. I don't mean to make this application long to impress, but to put as much information in as possible so you know me better and know what I can really do, and if you need to know more you can test me ingame if needed.
