Mod App

What is your Minecraft name?
Jerry2kewl (Emerald)
Why do you play Minecraft?
I play minecraft for the same reasons why others play it. Minecraft is a chance for me to express my creativity, and experience the thrill of of the chase and freedom to run and explore, feeling emboldened as I venture out and fake risks. Minecraft is a game about construction and deconstruction which makes this game fun because it shows balance in challenges as well as rewards. Minecraft is a way for me to instantly connect to a community with whom I can share my experiences with.
What is your time zone?
Hawaii Standard Time (HST)
When are you usually online?
I am usually online around 5:00 pm Hawaii stand time until around 9. However on weekends I spend most of time playing factions from about 10:00 am to around 3:00 pm, I then take a break and come back on for about two or three more hours.
How many hours a day can you play? How many hours do you actually play?
Mainly I play about 3-7 hours on weekends and 1-5 hours on weekdays. However whenever I'm on the server I noticed the insufficient numbers of mods, where there are about one mod each time. I know being a mod is hard enough but when there are only one on at a time, it decreases the chances of getting caught a whole lot less.
How long have you been playing SquadCraft?
I've been playing squadcraft for a decent amount. I would say a little over 2 years about.
What's your favorite memory on SquadCraft?
My favorite memory has got to be meeting new players. I'm always about meeting new players because they always bring a smile to my face whether it be for their jokes or personality, but all in all they are what keep me happy.
Where do you spend your time at SquadCraft?
I spend my time mainly on factions, but I sometimes server hop as I like to see the new changes and improvement squadcraft has made.
Why do you want to be a moderator? What is your goal as a SquadCraft moderator?
First off I love talking to the players, welcoming them and making friends with them, as they are what keeps the server alive. It's nearly impossible to provoke me, as I try my hardest to get along with everyone by chatting with them, but if they break some rules (e.g. bypassing the filter) I won't ignore it and pretend I did not see it, I will mute them. I will act unbiasedly when making decisions about mutes. Factions isn't very moderated whenever I'm on, and I would love to be there as much as I can to make sure that everything is going well. As well as this, I would check up on other servers to make sure that things are going smoothly.
Another thing that I enjoy is hearing suggestions and opinions from different people as I always take it as a type of constructive criticism on how to improve and become a more well rounded individual.
As a moderator, how will you affect SquadCraft?
Being a moderator isn't about horseplay. To make squadcraft a better environment I would devote my time and am an active member on the server. I would carry on making sure that I provided helpful responses to players' questions. As a moderator I would watch the chat and any other servers I decide to visit is spam free and friendly. If anybody ever messages me about their suggestions and opinions about the server, I would take the time to listen and take their views on board, perhaps by creating a thread about what they thought or talking about it to other players or staff. Most importantly, I would do everything I could to make sure that everyone was having an enjoyable time on Squadcraft.
Do you want Mod just to have Mod next to your name?
Having mod next to my name doesn't mean or change the fact that I'm still one of you guys.
What happens if you are not chosen to be a moderator?
Being chosen for moderator or being denied just means I need further improvement. It clearly shows how I'm not capable/ready of taking on the roles moderating a proffessional server is all about.
What kind of skills do you have?
Squadcraft/Faction skills - talking to the community. For example if someone is breaking a rule, I will try and explain why they should not do what they are doing. Also, if they start getting rude, then I will be patient and stay calm. I can type quite quickly, meaning that I can respond appropriately whatever is going on in chat soon. I am fair and treat all players equally. No matter whether someone is my friend in real life or in game, I will still mute them or do what is necessary to prevent it from happening again.
Have you ever been banned? If so, why?
I have been banned on this server once but the reason for being banned was because after factions went down, I typed in chat did "tnt" do this implying if tnt had anything to do with the server going down, but one of the mods thought of it as an attempt to make factions go offline. I was later unbanned after resolving the conflict with one of the mods on the forums.
Have you ever cheated, used hacks? If so, why?
I have never cheated/hacked on this server ever.
How do you treat younger players?
Younger players are no different than older ones. I treat both of them fairly, and that I'm not harsh/rude to the extent that they quit the server, because to me everyone are the same person. Although if they are misbehaving then consequences/warnings will occur, but other than that I will treat them the same way I treat others.
Do you use TeamSpeak or skype?
I mainly use Skype but I'm capable of using team speak if neccesary.
List the things you've done to help the SquadCraft community and the SquadCraft server.
I am always happy to talk to other players on the server whether it be in game related or just about their real life difficulties or problems. Sometimes I would help them to familiarize themselves with the server by showing them some tips and tricks to doing well or become better. I have helped the mods numerous times, either catching the unwanted players or helping the players out so the mods don't need to take time out of their busy schedule to help them.
How many applications have you submitted before? When was the last one?
Before this app, I've only submitted a total of one app, which was long ago.
Is there anything else you would like to say?
I miss all the squad oldies.. Please return to squadcraft!
Do you have any experience as a staff member of any organization? (doesn't have to be Minecraft)
I was a staff member on a server long ago that eventually died from payment issues, but the time being when I was a staff help me realized the time/skill it takes to become a great staff.

Aside from being a minecraft staff, I was the president back at my school. The president is somewhat like a minecraft staff, because it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to provide a better community for the school. As president I had to do a lot of idea designing that would help boost this schools popularity, as it wasn't as big as many other schools. Throughout the entire year with the help of other group members we were able to expand the school by an approximate of 260+ students.

At home, their are these twins, who are significantly younger then me who come over late, due to their fathers work schedule. They can be very demanding, however I am very patient and fair with them. There was this one time they got into a fight because they wanted to play a specific game on the PS3. It started as an argument but it later turned into one of them kicking the other person. Without being harsh with punishment I simply explained the right from the wrong and the behavior towards others.
Tell us about yourself, about you, your character, personality and values.
I'm fairly interested in sports because of the amount of dedication and practice to become one team. For me my motto is always ONE Team. When it comes to schoolwork I am very intrigued at what science and math can do when combined.

 

Thanks so much @God Slayer Playz and @Revelutionz for your comment.

I don't mean to be rude but whoever voted no for my app, could you please state your reason for why I'm not capable of becoming a moderator. It would mean a lot to me, because I would like to fix it as soon as possible.

~~Thanks

 

Uh thanks xdddd

 

Thanks I appreciate your honesty really brings a smile to my face

It kinda bugs me that the one person who voted "no" isn't giving me a response to my mistakes. I want to fix my flaws in everyway I can to make people happy :'(

 

Sorry if anyone of you guys read repeats like the the.. I caught most grammatical problems but not all, and I will be scanning it rn and fixing it. If you happen to find something wrong lmn

 

Hi bby

 

Sorry surge, Ik I'll still probably get denied but I explained this to rev. My family felt it wasn't necessary to buy another account for my brother and I. So we shared the jerry2kewl account. He downloaded hacks and he got caught. I later found out it and I changed every detail of my account which he has no more access to because he has his own.

 

Ik I was very foolish back then, but the hacks he performed were long ago as it has no relation to squadcraft itself. I've never hacked on squadcraft and I never will.

 

When he hacked?

Or now?

 

Wiipro idk but I think you just agree to whatever surge says or other mods say so you can make a better impression. On b34sts mod app you specifically gave him a +1 however he stated he hacked. Either you hate me in general, or your just a suck up.

 

That wasn't me who created the ban appeal. Like I said my brother also plays.

 

Exactly

 

He's about there

 

Thanks

 

Thanks so much!!

thank you man!!
