11. Describe a time when you lost control of your emotions and how you were able to cope with the situation:
A time where I lost control: It was a couple years ago, I was at school, minding my own business, then some asshole that liked to bully me constantly, finally after a couple months of bullying me, he finally decided it was a good idea to fight me. Well, It wasn't really a good idea. That day, I was... Well you could say, pissed. I could've put him in the hospital. But, I didn't, when he threw the first punch into my jaw, I just looked at him with scorn. Instead of throwing a punch, I just looked at him. For a good 5 seconds. And he just stopped. Never decided to bully me again. I could've... But luckily I didn't. I just walked away.
12. What do you consider in your personality to be strengths? What do you consider in your personality to be weaknesses?
I'm a really nice guy when you get to know me more. I love making others happy, I enjoy giving my friends gifts. But I really despise when others take advantage of me, I may get sour with people but not through speaking, but through TF2. I'm also very pessimistic. I also love messing with electronics. Basically I can be a really gentle person. If not provoked. (also very judgemental and shy.)

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?
Ask them politely to stop. I personally do not like racial slurs. And If they do not stop, I'd warn them, and if they do not listen, a kick, and if they join back and continue to do so, a temp ban (10-30 mins).
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 the person being offensive to play nice. If they don't stop, a kick or gag may be needed.
C: How would you deal with players who micspam?
If it is nonsense they are speaking they will get muted for a small period of time(5-10 mins) If they continue, a kick/longer mute. If it is a DJ of some sort I will start a vote for people to answer yes or no to allow micspam.(With at least a vote of 70%.)
D: Another TF2SS admin is exploiting their powers in game; what will you do about it?
Notify higher authority. Example: Knife.
E: What would you do when answering a report that [username] is speed hacking on one of our servers?
Please explain how [username] is hacking so I may check if he really is, and if its a false report I'll ask them politely to use the !report command better next time. If it is a actual hacker and he stops hacking/leaves the game, I'll ask if the reporter if they had recorded a demo/evidence, and If they did, I'd ask them to send it to http://tf2swapshop.com/sourcebans/ so further action may be taken on the hacker.
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?
Tell them they can't be banned for (said reason) because they're not breaking TF2ss rules.
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?
Get good.
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?
To calm down. If they don't I'll give a warning. Again, following a temp ban. 10-30 mins depending on the situation. And if they continue after the temp ban I'll notify another admin, to see what the punishment should be for continuing bad behavior. If not, a longer temp ban.
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 them that scamming isn't allowed. Warn them. Following a kick.
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?
It's all fair, shop is free, after all.
