Age: 17.455
Location: United States, PA
Timezone: GMT-5
Join Date: Would have been when my ForsakenEden account joined. Which was June of 2011.
Were you recommended by anyone?: No
Why you should become a moderator: I have experience in this field more than anyone else whos currently applying due to me being Op twice on Classic and temp op on classic. Im also an Admin on another server. I know how to use most of all cmds, and I will help people thoroughly and give the griefers the brutal force of my BanHammer. Its nice to be back :)

I'd love to give my support, however on the server you're a little Cockey, and you havn't had trusted very long. Good luck though.

Hm.. Kinda fast didn't you choose to get involved? I would expect some great building from you, since you are back..
Anyway, these are choices.
Hope you get it. Good luck.

Supported!

I would just like to put my two cents in. It is not just that you know the commands already that will make you the best choice for moderator, you need to have the respect of the community. If people playing don't listen to you, what good is that? Being active and helpful will show that you have the desire to help as a moderator.

I will wish you good luck, but just as a warning, acting cockey in game just because you have previously been an Operator on classic will make people dislike you more than support you.

See what I mean by Cockey?

To clear up this cocky thing, spyow7 congratulated me on becoming trusted. I said "lol", he said "what". I said its not that much of a surprise. He said wow your cocky. Hence the cocky. But all due respect im not 100% bit cocky, spyow had no clue I was a member on this server since June 2011 because I had my profile name changed. Im luckily friends with all the op+ on the server because I have known them for a long time. Also I have been trusted by many of the Ops since I got Op on classic about half a year ago or more. But since your predetermined thought of me is already "cocky" then their isnt much I can do about that except change it in time. As for being quoted on my Op experience, it can be seen from mutliple perspectives. Since summer is coming up and im free and will have lots of time to mod/op (however you may call it). Having someone whos had previous experience (alot of it) is the better choice than someone new to this. Thats what I was trying to say, I'm sorry if anything I said came off as mean/cocky. Im only here with the best of intentions.

Just because you joined early and know some OPs doesn't mean you should get mod. Considering OP on classic and mod on smp are two different things, you may not be as experienced as you think. I just think you're a little... Self centered. Good luck anyways

Well I am an admin on another SMP server . . . so yes I do know what its like. A few ops. . . . more like them all.

I'm not posting in this topic anymore, you'll just post back putting yourself in the spotlight.
Huh... Then I will  ::)
Good luck Fordaken! If I was a Mod/Operator I would recommend you, but I am not. Also, I do think you coming back so soon, well, isn't the best choice, but nevertheless, good luck :)

Sorry to rain on your parade, but salas has way more experience than you. Glad to see the app though.

Yea nick has a point Salas was a mod for a long time and i am sure he is experienced not that u aren't or anything. just that saying u have the most experience than anyone who currently applied won't make u many friends with the others who applied recently. I still support u though just saying to be careful. :) hope u make it Grand_Paladin

Guys? Do you realise that this is a MOD application?
So the respect it requires, remove all the irrelevant posts, because its not chat room for Salas's application or experience.


Done... Let's stay on topic people.


Why you should become a moderator: I have experience in this field more than anyone else whos currently applying due to me being Op twice on Classic and temp op on classic. Im also an Admin on another server.

This part of your app right here is why I'm going to say not supported.  Moderators can't be walking around with a superiority complex.  We're all here to do a job and function as a team.  The first thing out of your mouth wasn't how you'll help the players, or how you would help in moderating, it's that you're better than everyone else that's applying.  No, that kind of attitude isn't something we need on the staff.

In addition, the fact that you're an Admin on another server is, I believe, a conflict of interest.  Would you put in the effort to be a moderator here when you're an admin there?  Probably not.  In my opinion there are already too many moderators spending too much time on other servers.  If it were my decision I would deny this application.  That said, it's not, so you might have a chance.
