Why do you believe we should pick you for the Prometheus Networks Staff Team?[300 words or more]:
I would be an excellent fit for the Prometheus Networks Staff Team due to my ability to take constructive criticism and my willingness to always improve. My primary motivation for joining the staff team is to help improve the community by taking tickets, fixing issues, and ensuring the players get the best roleplaying experience without hiccups. I have staffing experience from Gmod, and I believe that my previous experience, attitude, and work ethic would blend well with the current staff needs.
I am familiar with the rules and have an excellent grasp on what they entail, and I'm willing to enforce them when required. I don't believe staffing is relegated to doling out punishments; it's also about helping players understand why what they did was wrong and how they can avoid doing it again. If a player is new or genuinely confused, I'd much rather educate and inform than jump down their throats immediately. Giving them that chance to roleplay and understand is much better for the server than arbitrarily banning them the moment they join and screw something up.
I'm also very forgiving and attempt to put everything in context before making a decision. If a warning is better than a ban, but the rulebook allows it, I will always give the benefit of the doubt as long as it follows guidelines. For me, this is how I operate myself; I've had no bans or infractions within a few weeks since I've joined. This shows that I follow rules and attempt to be a good example.
In short, I firmly believe that becoming part of your staff team would help facilitate good relations between the community and the current staff. I'd be a welcome addition, and I'm willing to put in my best effort at all times to help keep this server respectful and fun for everyone involved.
In my own words, the staff member's job is to ensure players are adhering to the rules for everyone to experience properly functioning roleplay. While rule enforcement is necessary, not every situation calls for heavy-handed punishment. If a player is simply confused or made a mistake, the role of the staff member is to guide them, tell them what they did wrong, and essentially teach them how the server works.
What are the duties and responsibilities of the position you are applying for in your own words? [150 Words or more]:
As a representative of the community, it's important for a staff member to maintain a sense of respectfulness and professionalism. In dealing with tickets, answering questions, and resolving player inquiries, patience, communication, and calmed demeanor are essential. An approachability and understanding nature keeps the server a welcoming place. It is necessary to have a basis of understanding with the community members, and other team members. This allows for the fluidity of the server to be maintained.
If I were a staff member, I would enforce rules where applicable but also stress educational components by providing clarity where applicable for those who simply don't understand. A good portion of the role is to help new players understand the structure of the server and promote their engagement in roleplay before they become discouraged and punished. This is necessary for player retention and better roleplay quality. The best way to create better roleplay is to cultivate new role-players into becoming great players.
