I have put some thought into becoming an admin on a different critz server, but never got around to filling the application.


6. What are your goals in this community - or, why do you want to hold this position?
My main goal for the community right now is too keep the servers clean from hackers or mic spammers. I've seen plenty of mic spammers and a couple of hackers and had no power to stop them other than to call an admin.

One night, my dad, his girl friend and I were playing Magic and the first turn my father made it so my deck was unplayable, so i got very upset and fore fitted the game. In turn I went to go play Tf2 and hopped on the critz server.


12. What do you consider in your personality to be strengths? What do you consider in your personality to be weaknesses?
I consider myself as helpful, funny, and caring, but my weaknesses are that im arrogant and stubborn.

  • Creative: 9
  • Polite: 7
  • Reasonable: 7
  • Objective: 6
  • Perceptive: 6
  • Compassionate: 7
  • Troubleshooter: 9

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?
If someone was making racist I would first ask them to stop and warn them, if they continue to do so I will kick or ban depending on the severity of the action.


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?
I would generally try to keep everyone happy and ask people not to offend each other. If it was just some people over the mic id just tell the people who were offended  to mute them, but if there going out of their way to harass them, then its a problem.


C: How would you deal with players who micspam?
I would make a vote on whether to leave the mic spammer alone or mute them. If they continue i will mute them, and if they leave and rejoin to micspam it will result in a ban depending on the severity.


D: Another TF2SS admin is exploiting their powers in game; what will you do about it?
If another admin is abusing their admin powers, I will then report it to the higher ups.


E: What would you do when answering a report that [username] is speed hacking on one of our servers?
I would respond by entering the server and enter spectator and watch the person who was reported and ban them if i can confirm they are hacking.


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?
If a regular threatens another player with false information, I will first confirm with the person being threaten that those rules are false, then talk with the other player and warn them about the consequences if they continue to do so. If they continue doing so, it will result in a ban depending on severity.


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?
If the players are playing the game i can not do anything about it, if they harass me verbally on a mic or chat spam level i will mute or ban them depending on serverity.


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 people are insulting me personally i will warn them and ban depending on severity. If someone is complaining about the server i will say " let me help you with that then" and proceed to kick them, If they rejoin only to spread hate about the server i will ban them depending on severity. If someone is micspaming after each kill and people are getting upset by this i will warn them to stop and mute or ban them depending  on severity.


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?
If the player is actually scamming people it result in a ban depending on severity.


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?
I will most likely type in chat"XD" then tell them you can donate for more credits or just say pwease. then i would gift them some credits.

If the player is actaully scamming people it result in a ban depending on severity.

Picture a situation as a player is asking for hats, in return for godmode. Keep in mind this is a regular player offering to dish out godmode for actual ingame items in which contain value. Also note that you've never seen this player offering out godmode. What exactly would you now do to handle the situation?

Its wrong to steal and lie to other players even if you are a regular. I Would warn them first and ban them if they are successfully scamming other players.

Sadly i do not speak any other languages except bad English. i have had some problems with not being able to communicate with other players because of this, so i have been thinking about learning Spanish or Russian. In the mean time i use google translate.

i would place a temporary ban of one to two weeks for the first incident, but if this happens again i would place a permanent ban.

When someone lashes out at other player or a certain ethnic group with hatred, angry, and nasty words, then that would be worthy of a ban. If some kid yelling racist comments here or there and its not affecting everyone, i would personally ask the to stop and tell then the consequences of doing so.

So what would you do when it becomes a problem?

I would place a vote to mute said person, then if they leave and rejoin even more angry or spam hate in the comments then I would ban them for a short time.

Quote
C: How would you deal with players who micspam?
I would make a vote on whether to leave the mic spammer alone or mute them. If they continue i will mute them, and if they leave and rejoin to micspam it will result in a ban depending on the serverity.
What do you mean by severity? What determines severity?

When I mean severity, I mean how much it affects people and that would determine how long the ban is. Now if a mic spammer is playing good music that's not racist or country, but is is not appreciated by other players, I'd ask them to stop then mute if they don't. If they join back to span i would only give them a small ban. Now if its someone yelling and screaming I would mute them almost instantly. If they rejoin and do it again. It would result in a longer ban.

If they continue doing so, it will result in a ban depending on serverity.
Again, what determines severity?
The severity would be determined and how many items he stole, but i would ban him if he took one and discuss it with other admins because they are a regular. I personally set the ban for two weeks If they only took one but permanently than them if multiple items were stolen.

Quote
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 f it?
If the players are playing the game i can not do anything about it, if they harass me verbally on a mic or chat spam level i will mute or ban them depending on serverity.
Same question: what determines severity?
The severity of the ban would be determined by the comments they would use like racist lots of foul language to make me angry which would be a lot because the only thing that really gets to me is micspam. Other than that, I like a challenge from the community even if its a 5v1 Im up for the challenge.

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 someone is micspaming after each kill and people are geting upset by this i will warn them to stop and mute or ban them depending  on serverity.
What determines severity?

No player should ever to be allowed to get away with insult or harassing a staff member so a ban of at least one week would be in order, but if its racist or full of foul language that ban would be longer.

Id try have some fun with the player who was slain with my admin powers. I also realize how fun it is to hhh now that i have used it so i would generally be more sympathetic to the player who was slain.

A lot of grammatical and spelling errors to fix here buddy.

How long of a ban? Also, what are the "consequences" and what if they continue to be visibly racist?

It would result in a longer ban.
So do you consider someone yelling and screaming in the mic to be more serious than mic spam or do you consider mic spam to be more serious than someone yelling and screaming in the mic (in terms of worthiness of punishment)?

This question doesn't mention any stolen items. Please answer the question again.

What if I told you that you're not allowed to use administrative powers to remedy the angered player?
