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?
I would ask them to stop (give them a warning,) if they do not I would gag them for a select amount of time and if they continue after around 2 gags I would ban them.
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?
first I would debunk what was wrong and find out why it offended them, if there is a logical reason I would politely ask the offenders to be nicer to the target.
C: How would you deal with players who micspam?
I would ask them to stop mic spamming, if they don't I would gag them, if they kept doing it after the gags I would mute them indefinitely.
D: Another TF2SS admin is exploiting their powers in game; what will you do about it?
I would remind them about the rules if they keep exploiting I would report them to the forums with screenshot or video proof.

I would check to see the items that the person has equipped or check to see if they had a speed increase RTD.
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?
I would remind them about the rules, tell the person who is being threatened that the imposter has no such power and if they keep doing it proceed to ban them.
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?
I would do nothing since it isn't against the rules to do that, I may personally get a little peeved but I would not leap into disciplinary action.
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?
I would tell them to stop, if they don't stop I would gag them, If they keep doing it I would ban them, I would also just tell them to go to another server because their kind is not welcome.
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?
I would tell them to stop, ask them to read the rules or if somebody has already done the trade immediately ban them.
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?
that the perk does not make you invincible and that the person can still die.
K: How do you define Admin abuse?
I define Admin abuse as a admin/person of power using either their position of power, rank or commands to unfairly punish or shame a player of lesser powers.
After filling out this application, what are your feelings toward becoming a Server Admin on our servers?
