What country do you currently reside in? What is your time-zone: UK, GMT

When did you join the server? Have you taken any breaks since: 

I joined the first time some time in 2018 but started playing properly in late 2019. I have taken a break since September 2020 but have been back a few months.

How often do you use our Teamspeak 3 server, SW-RP Discord and our forums: 

I use all of them everyday.

State all your previous OOC punishments (bans, kicks etc.) and a screenshot of your list of warnings.): I have no warnings or bans. Imgur: The magic of the Internet

State the role of staff on the server: 

The role of staff on the server is to enforce the rules and also help out the player base. Whether this be with issues such as content packs or some bugs or another player ruining the roleplayer experience of another. Another key factor to being staff in the ability to be polite but strict when it is needed. Also staff are expected to keep up with sites that are coming in from the players and making sure to fulfill them to the best of their abilities.

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

Yes I have read them and I am familiar with them.

List of all previous server staff experience: 

I was a WW2-NRP Senior Moderator and Event Planner

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

I do understand

Explain how you would handle these scenarios as a staff member:

1 ) You are told by a Player that somebody is randomly killing other clones: 

I would teleport to the player that has been accused of RDM. I would then watch to see if they are actually shooting people or the reporter was lying. If he was I would take him away from whatever he was doing and freeze him to prevent him from shooting or causing anymore interference. Based on what he had done I would check logs to see whether it was ARDM or RDM. I would also look at the amount of people they killed to see whether the player has tried to MRDM. Finally I would either warn them for RDM or issue a ban depending on the situation.

2 ) You are asked by a Cadet to be trained using the @ function: 

I would first inform the player that being trained is more of a RP situation and not a staff matter. To make sure they get trained I would show them the /advert command so that they can request a trainer. If they had already done this multiple times I would teleport to a Battalion member and ask them to send a cadet trainer.

3 ) During a debrief, a CT accidently shoots someone, whilst trying to safety their weapon: 

I wouldn’t punish them as it was an accident and they are new to the server and they may not have fully grasped all of the information that was given to them during the cadet training. After this I would allow IC regiments such as CG to carry on the RP and punish him if it was needed but also inform them that he was new and didn’t know.

4 ) A CT #### doesn't salute you, despite you being a rank higher than 2nd LT:

I would just give them a chance to correct themselves and remind them that you must salute 2nd LT+. Also I would tell them to ask higher ups in their regiments should they require and further assistance.

5 ) Someone commits FailRP, but claims that the specific instance of FailRP is not explicitly stated within the server rules: 

Firstly I would say that not all offences and things that aren't allowed are written because if they were the rules sheet would be enormous. I would again inform that even though it isn't written it is still against the rules. If they still refused and carried on I would warn them for 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 tell them that what they did is against the rules. I would also tell them that if they have any complaints on how I handled the sit that they are free to make a complaint via the forums and also give them a link to the specific thread needed. If they profusely carried on then I would warn them for DTS.

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 (250+ words):  

I think that I stand out among other candidates because I have been on the server for about 1 year and during that time I have gained so much in terms of IC roles. I feel like the server needs more staff at the moment to handle sits at night and during the day at some points and I feel like I can assist with that greatly. Another reason that I think I could become staff is that I am dedicated to the server and I am making a return full time and committing. I feel like I am liked on the server and hopefully people would like to see me as staff on the server. I want to help the server grow also and help people out on the server so that they can have a good experience on the server. I also want to help the server out and stop minges from breaking rules on the server and also make sure that the server runs smoothly. I have a good understanding of  Ulx commands which may make it easier for me to become a staff. A big factor I think is because I am in the time zone the server is in which enables me to be on during peak hours. I feel like I can also be on a lot and not be inactive which would make me a good staff member during the day to take sits. I have previously been on staff at NRP which gives me a feel on how to handle sits and what I may run into when on the server. I also feel I can be trusted due to my previous staff ranks and in game ranks which I have acquired

Good lad.
Active.
Dedicated to 501st always finishes mins and goes above what is required of him at the rank he is in 501st.
Been staff before so has previous experience.
Question 2 cadets have a sign in the cadet area where if they are waiting too long they can contact a staff member for help, so you can add more to that question but other than that some really good answers to the questions and a good app overall, good luck!
