A: How would you deal with a person who was making racist comments?
I would warn tehm. If they continued, I would mute the person in question for a reasonable amount of time, and if continued further, I would ban them for a short period of time.
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 tell the offender to stop, adn if he continues, I would give him 1 final warning. If they continue, I would mute the player for a while.
C: How would you deal with players who micspam?
Mute.
D: Another TF2SS admin is exploiting their powers in game; what will you do about it?
I'd wanr them to stop before reporting it to another admin and come to an agreement on what to do about them. If another admin isn't available, I would kick them from the game. If they rejoined and continued, I would (if possible) ban them for a while and report the incident.
E: What would you do when answering a report that [username] is speed hacking on one of our servers?
Try to first get proof that they were indeed using said hacks, and if legitimate evidence is given, along with confirmation by other witnesses, I'd report it on his steam profile and then ban the player from the servers.
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 tell the reg. user threatening to ban that he doesn't have that power and to stop imersonating those who do, and to stop creating fake rules or he would be kicked.
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?
Ask them to stop harassing me, and if they don't, I would kick them for harassment.

Mute and or warn them.
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?
Mute their mic and tell the other players not to trade, as they're not an admin.
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?
There's nothing I could do and they'll have to wait until they get the perk again.
