17. After you become an admin, how would you react to these situations below:
A: How would you deal with a person who was making racist comments?
Mute them but before that give them warnings to stop
B: A group of players are offended by remarks that another player made, but you yourself do not find them to be offensive. How would you respond?
Depending on the rules I would make a vote to decide whether to mute them or not
C: How would you deal with players who micspam?
Mute them with warnings first or make a vote to decide
D: Another TF2SS admin is exploiting their powers in game; what will you do about it?
Report it to higher admins for a closer look and have them decide on what we should do with the exploiting admin.
E: What would you do when answering a report that [username] is speed hacking on one of our servers?
Join said server and go spectator and see if that is a reasonable claim and if true kick or ban for about a day or more depending on the situation.
F: A regular user threatens to ban another player if they do not comply with rules that do not exist. What will you do about it?
By the term "user" i'm assuming what you mean is non admin, so i would tell that person its not within his/her power and if you have a problem with a violator of the rules /report it to message an admin who can deal with it properly.
G: A group of enemy players dominate you, ignoring everyone else and changing teams if you join the team they are on, killing only you over and over again. What will you do about it?
Leave and cool off and come back later, or join another server, or if its not a big deal I would just go spectator and chill for a while, while I cool down.
H: How do you deal with a player who comments publicly that: you are an asshole, the server sucks ass, and continues to insult anyone who kills them with profanity & by screaming on the mic?
If they mic spam then i would mute them and if they chat spam gag them but before that i would try to calm them down or suggest a different server.
I: A regular player on our server says that they will offer free godmode for anyone who trades a hat to them. What will you do about it?
Warn people that its PROBABLY a scam but they can do what they want with their items because i did try to warn them and i have no power on the other person whether they will follow through with the deal.
J: A player who bought the Headless Horsemann perk from the shop complains after another player slays him/her. What do you tell the slayed Headless Horsemann player?
Would politely ask them to calm down and inform them that their will always be more credits and you can also earn credits by !credits or !donate

An admin who uses his power to gain an unfair advantage that is exclusive to admins without reason or using their power to disrupt game play.
