Gag/Mute them for the specified time for being racist
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?
start a vote on the server to see if the people offended by them outnumber the people not offended. Depending on the tally, either ask them to stop/gag or mute, or ignore it since the majority of players didn't find it offensive.

Mute for the specified time for micspam

Talk/complain on the fourms or dirrectly to my superior about what they were doing wrong.

try to investigate to see if he is still doing it, and if not, ask for evidence that he was doing it. as well as witnesses to it.
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?
inform all the players on the server about how that is not a real rule, and how that regular has no authority to perform such an action. also if there is a penalty for falsely claiming to have such power, inforce that penalty on the regular falseclaiming.
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 either stay in spawn, or just go afk and check the forums. I would not get angry about being dominated in a game.
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 that they are free to an opinion about the server and myself, but I would not tolerate micspam.
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 will ask them nicely once to stop trying to scam people, and if they continue I will enforce whatever penalty for commiting such an act.
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?
If you can use the store to buy stuff, so can other players. He has done nothing to break any rules.
K: How do you define Admin abuse?
Abusing powers that regular players don't have, using them for selfish reasons or opinionated reasons.
Basically doing anything to anyone without a proper reason.
