Staff Knowledge Section: What previous experience so you have as a staff member either within Garry’s Mod or the Nutscript Gamemode? Phantom Networks, Werewolf Gaming, Jackal Networks, Modified Gaming, Historia (1 and 2)

Why do you believe we should pick you for the Prometheus Networks Staff Team?[300 words or more]: I've played here for years, I've got extensive rule knowledge and understanding as well as the experience most other people wouldn't have. I have played and run on enough servers to know who is just there to mess up other players' days, and who is there to actually try and have fun. Malice in players out of character is completely intolerable, I only see who did what. Insults have no meaning, I couldn't care less until somebody actually does something wrong. Also, I know very well how to handle disputes and where the burden of evidence lies. If something can be proven in logs, then unless a reasonable doubt has or can be established, it is therefore proven (I.e. somebody headshot and killed 8 people but nobody clipped it). I know the right and wrong things to ask about proving a situation had occurred, and the implication of immediate guilt for somebody who knows they've done guilty is enough to save the time and effort of dealing with a retard for another 2 hours. We've had a lot of such situations in Historia specifically, because people believed it was more hardcore ww2 germany than prometheus. Speaking of which, these "crusader" types are fairly easy to recognize and pick out as well. I've dealt with them quite a lot being on the unpopular servers, actors of all kinds who would spew a world of racially charged nonsense and slurs to no end after being told they are not allowed to run terrorist groups or refer to real world individuals with their names. I want to clarify; I have a certain level of tolerance for silly names because I myself enjoy the privilege of bearing them, just having a fun or clever name is enough to keep me around usually. They help to remind me where I am, that I am here with other people to have fun. At the end of the day, this has always been a game and it's dangerous to make too much out of it, which is why I've also learned the patterns of a tired or stressed player to learn how to deal with them instead of banning them outright. Complex process.

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

As staff, I would give notes, warnings and bans to those who offend or break the rules at the expense or risk of roleplay quality, especially if they do it maliciously. My job is to make sure that nobody's making habits of bad shit either; baiting (for PK or deathmatch), harassment (OOC) or failrp (remembering after death, mentioning real world within IC context, taking information from out of character). I do not like rule lawyering or loopholing. I know what this looks like, and I will address it sternly. I will not validate or void anything without the appropriate permissions, even if it's completely within parameters of voiding. I will ensure that I act my part as staff, I will not overstep my guidances or boundaries. I've probably got a ticket quota to meet, so I'll be on for a bit until then. I'm mostly on during weekends, so please bear with me if I don't get enough tickets to meet quota. I'd take pretty much every ticket that comes across my screen anyways.

Notes: I was going to make this app last week, but I wasn't super sure about the quality. I was also pretty burdened in regular life, so please excuse the lateness.
