Staff Knowledge Section
What previous experience so you have as a staff member either within Garry’s Mod or the Nutscript Gamemode?

My experience with Garry’s Mod staffing spans many years, during which I’ve held staff positions on countless servers. Specifically within the WW2/1942 themed servers, I’ve been active for the past two years and have consistently served in staff roles on nearly every server I’ve played on.

Some of my notable roles have included:

• Athena: Community Manager and later Owner.
• Independent Server: Founded and operated my own server, which I later sold.
• Agartha: Community Manager and Developer.
• Aether: Owner
• Athena (New): Returned as Community Manager.
• Historia: Developer and Staff Member.
• Miscellaneous Servers: Held various staff positions across multiple other communities.

As you can see, this wide range of staff experience has given me a deep understanding of what it means to be effective staff, particularly on Nutscript servers.

Why do you believe we should pick you for the Prometheus Networks Staff Team?[300 words or more]:

I believe I would be an excellent addition to the Prometheus Networks Staff Team due to my extensive experience, dedication to the community, and strong understanding of both staff responsibilities and the specific needs of Nutscript servers. Over the years, I have held staff positions on countless Garry’s Mod servers, and for the past two years, I have been heavily involved in 1942-themed and roleplay-based communities.

My roles have included everything from moderator to developer, community manager, and server owner. Notable communities I’ve worked with include Athena (both its original and later versions), Agartha, Aether, and Historia. In each of these, I contributed not just as a staff member but often as a UA or GA, shaping the community, handling player concerns, managing staff teams, and assisting with development.

These positions have really been very educational for me and I have gotten a clear understanding of the necessary to create a lively, engaging role play atmosphere. I can deal with both fair rule implementation and player empathy aspects without one overshadowing the other. The player conflict resolution and new user support are also not challenges to me.  I am proficient in the technical workings of Nutscript and the running of the server, thus I can help not only users but also other staff efficiently.

I’m not just someone who enforces rules, nono, I’m someone who actively works to build a better community. I take pride in being approachable, professional, and consistent. I also understand the importance of communication and teamwork within a staff team, and I always strive to lead by example.

I am also going to be a great addition to the team because of my unique timezone (NZST) which allows me to staff during downtime, so I can aid those who also share similar timezones to me.

Joining Prometheus Networks would allow me to bring all this experience and passion into a new environment, where I can contribute meaningfully and help the community grow and thrive. I am confident that I can be a valuable asset to your team.

What are the duties and responsibilities of the position you are applying for in your own words? [150 Words or more]:

As a staff member, my primary objective is to ensure that the server remains a fair, immersive, and enjoyable place for all players. This includes enforcing rules consistently and without bias, resolving player disputes calmly and professionally, and assisting new or confused players in understanding server mechanics, lore, and expectations. I also understand that staff are representatives of the server at all times. That means maintaining a respectful, mature attitude both in and out of character, setting a positive example, and remaining active and approachable. Theres also the simple things, such as helping people with changing their names, models, factions, or anything they request in a ticket. I very often see users in the chat during later hours requesting staff but nobody replies,  so my job extends to helping those during downtime, as my timezone allows it. Lastly, communication with the rest of the staff team is VERY important, working together to address issues, support the community, and help guide the server’s growth in a direction that aligns with its goals and values.
