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 first of all warn them, and if they continue to make racist comments I would most likely ban them as I do not tolerate racism.
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 have them talk it out and if they can't get along then I think I would probably temp mute both of them to give them some time to cool down and think it through.
C: How would you deal with players who micspam?
Honestly If they don't listen to a warning I would just mute them for like an hour MicSpammers are so annoying and are one thing I can't stand.
D: Another TF2SS admin is exploiting their powers in game; what will you do about it?
Report it in the discord and on the forums to higherups and stop them until the higher authority can deal with them and revoke their admin rights.
E: What would you do when answering a report that [username] is speed hacking on one of our servers?
I would check if they had a roll the dice item for increased speed, I would also check if they were on say a x10 server and had a item that increases speed otherwise I would most likley as long as I know they are hacking %100 , then I would ban them.
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 will explain that that is not how it works and simply tell them not to threaten other users.
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?
Warn them for Toxicity if they do not stop.
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?
Mute them and politley tell them that Toxicity is not tolerated.
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?
Warn other players that they may be scamming as while you can gift godmode to players through !shop there is no guarentee that he will infact give the players godmode. Possibly let the player off with a warn.
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?
Well that it is how it is, life sucks sometimes and they just need to suck it up and deal with it. I mean life is what it is.
K: How do you define Admin abuse?
I define Admin Abuse as the use of powers in a way such that it is not beneficial or fun to the current playerbase per example, Having a random vote for everone to get 1k credits thats not abuse. But constantly smiting everyone over and over again isn't fun and that is abuse.
After filling out this application, what are your feelings toward becoming a Server Admin on our servers?
I am feeling confident and am excited to help one my favorite communites.
