5. List and describe any previous supervisory, administrative or management experience, in or out of the game:
I haven't been an admin for any tf2 servers yet, only thing think is worth mentioning is that I have led some smaller communities on several social media sights (roughly 4000 members). That being said I am used to babysitting people and making sure people adhere to any rules/guidelines so if that is a problem I can deal with it.
6. What are your goals in this community - or, why do you want to hold this position?
I would just like to help moderate your servers since I spend a majority of my time on them, I see a fair amount of problems that go unnoticed in my time on there.
7. How much time will you be able to spend:
A. On the servers?
Usually 11 hours a day if needed between 5pm-3am I usually only spend 4 hours a day on TF2, but my schedule is very flexible.
B. On the forums?
Anytime between 8am and 3am
8. How long have you been playing on our group of servers?
I have spent roughly 300 hours your servers and I merely have 500 hours on TF2.

https://steamrep.com/search?q=http%3A%2F%2Fsteamcommunity.com%2Fid%2Fthebrokensock%2F
10. If you have alternate accounts, list any alternative accounts that you own:
11. Describe a time during which you lost control of your emotions:
Last time I remember losing control of my emotions was when I let some petty insult affect me on a personal level merely because it was delivered from someone I previously thought quite highly of, all I did in response was remove myself from the area and stay silent for an hour at least.
12. What do you consider in yourself to be strengths? What do you consider in yourself to be weaknesses?
I feel as if I am not well equipped for being harsh to people, I have a hard time being aggressive or wrathful to others, even when/if it is necessary, although I am very patient with dealing with those others would deem "annoying" and I try to solve most problems as peacefully as possible.

14. 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?
Burden them with details as to why it was wrong of them to say such things, giving the typical "we should be past it already" speech, but making sure to keep it short, and warn them with the possibility to being muted next time they cause a problem if the rules allow it.
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?
Ask them kindly to "cut it out" and maybe warn them with the possibility of getting muted for a short period of time depending on what was said and who was offended/upset.
C: How would you deal with players who micspam?
Ask them to cut it out, if they do not respond in an allotted amount of time I would temporarily mute them if they are causing a problem, after looking at any rules that may exist.
D: Another TF2SS admin is exploiting their powers in game; what will you do about it?
Remind them of any terms or rules that may mention something about admin abuse and kindly ask them to cut it out, if they refuse I would most likely send a report if possible and do something to counteract their actions in game if necessary.
E: What would you do when answering a report that [username] is speed hacking on one of our servers?
I would test the validity of the claim, looking for any evidence and or witnesses who could verify it and possibly seeing for myself next time the person in question is on the server.
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 the other player that the user is not an admin and if necessary adhere to any rules that apply to this situation.
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 most likely stay in spawn and taunt spam, or activate friendly mode and do nothing to further invoke their "wrath".
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?
Try to reason with him if possible, if that fails I may see about muting him if the rest of the server, or the rules support that.
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?
Inform the other players that it is a scam and warn the person who offered the deal, I may see to any guidelines left for me for punishment options if there are any, I would also kindly inform everyone of the "godmode" available in the shop.
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 they probably should have been more careful or that they shouldn't have bought it if they weren't willing to die/lose it, and remind them that they could always afk on the server and earn credits and if possible transfer some of my own credits to them.
