Accepted Thane's Staff Application

[Tootles - Thane 4]

In-game name(s): 
TK-3245 Thane, Thane Nkari
 
Steam Name: 
Tootles
 
Steam ID: 
STEAM_0:0:180908698
 
Age when applying: 
20
 
What country do you currently reside in? What is your time-zone: 
Northern Ireland. BST.
 
Can you speak and type English fluently:

Yes. Might sound a bit inbred but all Northern Irish do.
 
Current total game-time on the server:
I believe this is not currently obtainable due to server status.

IC Rank(s) and OOC Donation Rank(s) on IRP: 
68th Lieutenant, User.
 
Do you own a working microphone? When you communicate do you type or speak: 
I own a working microphone and I speak for a majority of the time
 
When did you join the server? Have you taken any breaks since:
I’ve played for a few months before IRP became IORP, then I took a 2 week break just before the start of august and I’ve been back since the 9th.
 
How often do you use our Teamspeak 3 server, IRP Discord and our forums:
TS and discord almost everyday and I check the forums every so often to see what’s new.

State all your previous OOC punishments (bans, kicks etc.) and a screenshot of your list of warns:
Currently unobtainable however I do not recall any warns or bans I have received.

State the role of staff on the server:
Staff are to ensure that players are following the server rules and that anyone breaking them is punished according to punishment guidelines as well as setting an example for other players as to how they should conduct themselves on the server. They are also to help players by fulfilling claims made in-game that are within their capabilities.

Have you read the server rules and are you familiar with them?
Yes and yes.

List of all previous server staff experience:
N/a

Do you understand that you can be demoted at anytime with a sufficient reason by a Hierarchy member?:
Yes.
 

Explain how you would handle these scenarios as a staff member:
 
1 ) You are told by a Player that somebody is randomly killing other Imperials:
 I would check logs for the player that has been accused and see if it supports those claims. If it does I would bring the player to a sit and ask for their side of the story as well as any possible evidence to support it. Depending on their story and evidence provided I would warn or ban them appropriately to the severity of the situation or if they appeared to be innocent I would talk to the player that accused them and verbally warn them that purposefully wasting staff time again could result in a formal warning.

2 ) You are asked by a Cadet to be trained using the @ function:
I would ask in OOC if any NCOs needed their minimums and would like to take the cadet and failing that I would attempt to get the appropriate higher ranks to select someone to attend to the cadet. Failing all else I would TP the lowest JNCO rank to the cadet and ask them if they have time to take the cadet and I would work my way up until someone was able to.

3 ) During a debrief, a ST accidently shoots someone, whilst trying to safety their weapon:
If it was clearly an accident firing one or two shots I would let it be dealt with in-character however if it was clearly an attempt at RDM I would physgun the player away to avoid further harm to the RP situation and deal with them according to punishment guidelines.

4 ) A ST #### doesn't salute you, despite you being a rank higher than 2nd LT:
I would first come to terms with 2nd LT not existing anymore and then I would remind the ST in character as it is not an OOC rule and should not be dealt with as such.

5 ) Someone commits FailRP, but claims that the specific instance of FailRP is not explicitly stated within the server rules:
I would explain to them that it is stated in server rules that not all instances of FailRP are written down however you should use common sense to understand what is and is not considered FailRP.

6 ) You bring a player into a sit and punish them accordingly, however they do not agree with your punishment and keep on arguing:
I would do my best to help them understand what they did and possibly bring in another staff member if available to help them understand that it is not just myself being biased or unfair however if they continued to argue I would explain to them that staff decision is final and if they would like to appeal it they can take it to the forums
 

 
Explain in length and detail as to why you deserve staff more than other applicants. Explain what you will bring to the staff team and your strongest assets as a person/potential staff member:
I may not have been one of the OG Imperial roleplay players when the server released as at the time I had been more focused on maintaining my rank as Jedi Master on clone wars but since taking my leave from that server I have found that I have had much more fun in my time on IRP both pre and post IORP update due to the people I found myself playing with in both ST and 68th and while the server has suffered some issues with player count and activity I have done my best to stick by the playerbase to help bolster numbers and keep the IRP dream alive and now I would like the opportunity to take it a step further and support the T-RP community as a member of the staff team.

While I have no formal staff experience on Garry's mod I have had many mates during my four years as part of the Werwolf gaming community that have been either staff or event planner on both clone wars and NRP and during my time with them they have helped me understand the patience and knowledge required to fulfil the role of staff. Through this I also have attained some basic understanding of SAMS, ULX and BLogs that may not hold up to the knowledge of people that have previously been staff  but it may give me some slight benefit to learning these tools completely from scratch. 

Despite what I have said prior I believe that overall a combination of my ranks both past and present showing a solid level of trustworthiness, my strong desire to learn new systems instead of strongly relying on prior knowledge from different servers and my belief that T-RP could stand on its own feet rather than relying on formulas and structures set out by CWRP and pre-update IRP are the biggest reasons that I should stand out over other applicants and deserve to be on the staff team.

I resigned on strike (got arrested for saying "No problem big teeth" to GA Lewis) with permission from Solaire who was Yoda at that time as I knew I was going to get a second strike for messing around too much during a debrief.
