When I read through your staff app, it was an great improvement, you not only improved your answers but you actually listened to what I wrote under your previous, what is very good. I will not comment on every answer as there is no point if its simply correct. 
Your first part was very detailed so there is nothing much to add, maybe some smaller things but you will learn those things simply by experience at some point. The second part could be a tiny bit more detailed but the answers are on point so it does not matter that much. I also like the fact that you have included the handbook and rules doc. in your answers as a link what is always a good thing to do. 
I never met you ingame or anywhere else but the improvement of your staff app and the fact that you have listened to my advices tells me you are staff material and have the necessary dedication to become a great staff member. 
Due to my reasoning I will +1 and hopefully we can welcome you in the HLRP staff team.

+1 
(Reasoning below)
 
ok, I would get accusor and accused both into a sit and ask them what happend and ask for proof, your way is fine but try to always get both sides of a story. 
 
Maybe you could also tell them what every faction is really about and stuff like that, but its fine I guess
 
Yeah like already said, try to get his side of the story, but the warn is fine 
 
Yup, but you would still warn him for failRP aswell.
 
You could also tell SMT about this loophole so it can be prevented in the future. ( If thats what you mean with contacting Staff Manager to deal with that )
 
(All the answers before that question seems fine so I wont react to them )
Yep also correct, so simply an action you have no power over IC:

Ok so the following questions were correctly answered aswell. 
I dont know where to start tbh, 
your application improved alot than your first. 
In my opinion your first part of the application is a bit short, but not wrong so I just wished more detailed answers but the second part of your application is very well written, your answers could stand on some spreadsheet if I am honest. 
Very well done on your application, but I will also +1 it as I got to meet you IC and in CFU and you were always very mature and reliable, you are clearly staff material and deserve your place within the staff team. 

Good luck and hopefully I can welcome you soon

Know Wanted for quite a while,  in the time I was still active on the server he was one of the most active people I know and always was helpful as well as reliable.
Though he never actually spoke I still think he has great staff potential.
Also he is a 212th legend. 
 

+1 
I mean I am not NRP staff so I dont know their standards but the application seems well written and detailed. 
When I was your Leutnant quite some time ago, you were very dedicated to your work and always friendly and open to other people. 
So I think you have staff potential and have the characteristics to become good at it.

I wish you good luck 

+1 
As already said the application is well written and you have good amount of experience. 
I also think you are a suitable for staff as you have the required maturity and dedication.
You are well known and respected in the community so it will be a +1 from me.
Good luck to you anyway.

-1  ( reasoning below )
 
Ok, first I wouldnt spectate hime for "a bit" as the other guy literally has to wait that time, so just get them both in a sit area first. You can watch him after the sit to see if he behaves.  And please read through your application as the last sentense is not making any sense.

 
First of he needs to apply for the faction IC, as I have written down this information under nearly every Staff application you could've known. But yeah explain them what they are and do. 

 
Depending on the rank of the player ?  So NCO = Warn and CO+ = ban   ?  Please no.  Maybe playtime is the word you were looking for but the IC rank shouldnt be too much an indicator of a punishment.  ( that is just my opinion and can be wrong ) 

 
Yeah punish them accordingly and notify their superior if needed.

 
Maybe freeze the props and make him to delete his spawned props would be kinda good so the server doesent dies.

 
As you have written often  depending on ...  punish accordingly.  Please be more specific like I would punish him for fail RP  or NITRP or stuff like that. Please include this next time if you get denied. 

 
Good solution, there is nothing missing ( if I remember correctly )

 
Trying to get another staff is always a reasonable answer but try to explain what you would do if no one could help you so you need to make a decesion.    Using loopholes in server rules is a big no no.  And as staff you have the ability to think for you own so if you truely think he was commiting failRP than warn / ban him for it.

 
Telling SMT about it is a good point, however I still would like more detail in you answers. 

 

Well combat baiting is breaking a rule so yeah.  
You bait your oponent into engaging you.   
I mean a vulcan is a dangerous environment too but has nothing to do with combat. So try to specify this environment better / more.

 
 
Well, like I said earlier PLEASE read through your staff app after you have written it to avoid any spelling mistakes. 

OK,  your answers were correct in the gist but for me they are not written in enough detail as I have mentioned before. 
Also I have seen many spelling or grammar mistakes and they just look bad on a staff app. 
Another point is, that in the last past you have written most of your server experience and not about you as a person. The last part is why you should be accepted into staff and if I am honest I am not really convinced as there are not really key arguments. 

I wish you good luck but due to my reasoning I wil -1 it as I think you are not ready to be staff yet, or at least it didnt really show in your staff app.

I was a witness and saw a cock, I did not like what I saw as I am into females, not males.
You are on omegle, it was pretty obvious what the guy was going to do through his body language. What did you expect. Wait a week or two, then try again - also explain it properly this time, like you are actually sorry instead of just saying it to try and get unbanned.

+1
How da fuck is VePo still alive xD 
I mean it wont necesarrily increase the numbers as people who are MG or Sanitäter cant be in VePo anymore as you cant have two special jobs. And tbh as VePo is not that really needed because its doing the job normal members of Orpo can do in legit the same way, so when I was a CO it was more a ceremonial unit than anything else as the interest of it never was that big. Because like I said they are doing nearly the exact same job as normal patrols so in my eyes it was never needed ( it was like that when I was Orpo maybe it changed ).
Vepo can perform well and can be active if you put effort in it, its not like Sani or Mg where everyone wants to join from the start, so you need to put more time as the Captain / Head of it than in the other special jobs.
It could be good so I will give a +1 for it for now even though I dont see the point in even having VePo. 
Anyway good luck 

I thought so too and I am german aswell but he literally gave you prove that it can be a name, it still sounds weird as fuck but he just combined two names that are very evry unusual but still they are names, and as this Anders Deutscher Ehrenreich isnt a famous or known person there is no reason why the ban should be valid
 

He legit gave you just proove that the name was legit, I am german and I never even thought about that this could be a name so even the other said it was failrp, maybe they didnt think it was possible that it is an actually name so I dont think the ban is justified as it isnt a fail rp name. It might be a bit mingy but apperently it is a name

very interesting.
how many fucked up german names are there xD, I mean as there is a person with that name born in 1941 ( I guess I cant speak swedish or danish or what it is ) it would be legit in my opinion. As @JTA already said I would like to hear what Johan has to say to this. But I will change it to + 1 as a none-german-speaking person you cant really know that "Deutscher" isnt a name for a person and Ehrenreich is apperently a name so seems legit

Your In-game name:
Johannes Lind Himmler
Your Steam ID: 
STEAM_0:1:116773265
Reason of the ban:
FailRP Tier 2 (FailRP Name)
Date you were banned on:
2020-10-21
Duration of ban:
2 days
Admin who banned you (In-game name / Steam name/ Steam ID):
Johan Schneider
Explain the situation of your ban from your point of view in detail: 
So I decided to change to FePo to play as a FePo Wachtmeister for a bit. Therefore I changed my name to not be the same character, the name I changed to was Anders Deutscher Ehrenreich, which apparently was a problem to Johan Schneider since he just brought me and did not explain to me how it was FailRP, he just said "you can't be named Deutscher Ehrenreich", but how is that a FailRP name since it is completely German, even on Wikipedia. I think Johan should have better facts before he just bans me for something I apparently haven't done. 
Do you think your ban was justified:
No, since Deutscher Ehrenreich is German and therefore not FailRP. I don't really see the reason for getting banned.
Why should you be unbanned:
Because I haven't done anything wrong and I like to play on the server. If he just didn't like it, he could have asked me to just change it, no need to be so harsh. It should be more friendly.
Any kind of evidence:
Of course:

Additional information:
By the way, if he meant that my first name was FailRP, than maybe he should consider changing himself since  "Johan is a masculine given name of Hebrew origin" and pretty much only used in Scandinavia according to Wikipedia. I even changed my name, even though it was not FailRP, but he still banned me.

Well hello there, since the staff quesions were heavily inspected and fixed by our dear friend Feymous, I have a little complaint about your anwser on the Context of C24 question.
You are depicting C24 as a Harsh and Brutal place to live in, where people are tortured everyday and corrupt CP raid every apartment that is not empty, daily... That however is not entirely true. City 24 is most commonly known as the "Royal City" in which people are "free to do whatever they want". Citizens in this city are not tortured at all, they are given higher privilages and even access to the Nexus if a high enough Loyalty Tier. Citizens from other cities want transfers to this city just for this reason. Yes CP are still a little harsh and yes there is a ton of C24 and Combine Propaganda EVERYWHERE, but living conditions are not as bad as in other cities. 
Other than that I do like everything else and your reason for wanting staff is quite nice and you say that you improved your behaviour.
For those reasons I give you a +1 and wish you Good Luck with your application 😄

Neutral
Your application is very well written and your answers are detailed. I would go differently on some situations like
I would ask for evidence aswell, if you cant catch him in the act of RDMing for example. But tbh I would tp first to the accusor and ask him his side of the story and if the evidence given I would bring he accused and so on... But otherwise your answer is still good in my opinion.

Overall your application was well thought and you took your time, its also good that you were staff once so you have lots of experience and can advice newer staff members, but the only problem I have rn is that I dont know you. Maybe its just me but I never seen you on the discord writing something before, so just let us get to know you more to really judge on this staff application. Still so people can get to know you better I would advice you to write some posts on the forums and try to interact with people on discord.

Well  I also believe some individuals or groups have benefitted her because she is a girl, but I dont think Barberi is one of them so if she is getting promoted to CO than she at least knows a bit of what she is doing. 
Also the server wouldnt  collapse when she is staff as you described , so stay as professional as you should with 6 years of experience
If she gets accepted she is given a trial time for one week and if she is really so bad as you think, than it will show in that trial time but what can one week do wrong. And I was a long time her CO in Orpo so I do think she can take things seriously if she wants to, so if she really wants to become staff I have no doubt she can do her job with the required seriosness and dedication as she should.

NGL all the 12 year old Half life staff are going back to school soon so you need more staff. Asking a million questions on what to do in staff situations is a waste of time. The server isn't out yet so nobody knows for sure what expect. In addition all other servers are different so any other experience you may have is null void. And my final point is, it takes around 30 mins for a mentor to teach  a TMOD everything they need to know. That  inspector no head, most of the answers you put there may be the same, but they are correct so I'm not sure what the fuck your going to write if you have to make a second application and the answers are always the same. You are a buster. I think fusion  would be fine as staff. You literally have sooth as a mentor, he can literally teach anyone to admin abuse so Fusion can learn from him fine. In addition I would rather speak to you cringy ass HL staff on teamspeak instead of you writing another 1000 word essay on why you should play HLRP. 
 
Fusion is skilled enough to teleport around in no clip and help people who are stuck.

Very big +1 as I know him from Orpo when he was just a little Unterwachtmeister, but even then he showed much dedication and maturity so he ranked up fast. Also I believe his current rank underlines his reliability. I think he will do well as staff as he has good experience on the server and he understands the rules. 
His application is well written and full of details and his reasoning why he should be staff instead of other applicants is aswell very convincing.
Anyway good luck to you !'

And Walther Schacht, stop with those replies with only 1 word, its absolutly not helpful  so explain why you are giving him a +1

Give some historical context about the time the server is set in (75 words+): Well the year is 1943, and it is not looking too good for Germany, since the mighty soviet union had conducted a major counteroffensive late last year at Stalingrad, (called Operation Uranus) where the soviets had encircled the entire 6th Armee. Of course the Germans launched Operation Winter Storm, which was a relief effort to save the last bit of the 6th Armee. Now in the summer of 1943 Germany commenced Operation Citadel at Kursk, the main goal of this operation was the last main effort to push back soviets and cripple their supply chain. However the soviets also launched their operation called Operation Kutuzov, which was very devastating to the Germans due to the large size of the soviet air force and bad battle plans. This was the largest tank battle fought during World War 2, (Battle of Prokhorovka). In the West the Americans and the British armed forces invaded Sicily, known as Operation Husky, this goal of this operation was to not only make Italy capitulate, but also invade Germany from the south, as the Americans and the British push on wards. Of course there was also a lot of bombing raids during this time of year, destroying major industry complexes etc, crippling the German war machine. In the Pacific theatre there was also major battle that took place as well, mainly in Burma. Due to the Americans won the battle of Midway, destroying 4 Japanese aircraft carriers, and other ships, they also started major offensives, in the pacific. Such as invading new Guinea and the Solomon islands.
Have you read the server rules and are familiar with them? Yes, i can confirm that i have read the rules regarding this server.
Have you read the punishment list ( https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gc29oZFMSsGgcWFoOkNZejj7eqUBQPGXYCGbB8vNePM/edit?usp=sharing ) and are familiar with it? Yes, i can confirm that i have read the punishment list regarding this server.
 

Former Staff Questions (Leave these blank if you have not been staff on our server before):
1) For how long were you a staff member on WW2-NRP/ORP?
2) What rank did you reach before leaving the staff team?
3) Were you demoted or did you resign? Why?
4) In hindsight, what would you have done differently as a staff member?
5) How have you improved since you left the staff team?
 

Explain how you would handle these scenarios as a staff member:
1) You are told by a player in admin chat that another player is randomly killing people: So what i would do is that i will teleport to the player that reported this, during this time i will check the logs that are available to me to see, and have a clear understanding, of the current situation. Once i see for myself the offence the other player had committed, i will then teleport to that player, and explain to him about the offence he had committed and give out the correct punishment, depending on the player previous warns, they might get a different punishment.
2) You are asked by a player about how to become a Third Reich official: When i receive a report of a player, who is having a bit trouble picking a Reich official job, i would teleport to him and explain the different choices there are available for him, depending if he has plat VIP or not. I will give the player detailed answers about specific regiments as well, and how he can work himself upwards and make him a valuable member of the chosen regiment. I will also explain to him that there are certain agency's that are handpicked, if the player is interested though.
3) You catch somebody not performing RP and that are messing around: If i catch someone that has no intention to RP, then firstly i would take him somewhere, where the both of us do not get disturb from other players. I will give a verbal warning to the player, and explain the consequences if he repeats the same offence again. If i catch him repeating the offence again, then i will ban him for NITRP.
4) Somebody acquires a rank but is not willing to RP with it properly: If i receive a report of a player that is abusing his rank, or not using rank in RP terms, then i will remove his whitelist, depending on what staff rank i have. After i have completed this situation, i would then inform the CO's of that regiment or agency's.
5) A player is prop spamming: If i saw a player prop spamming everywhere, then i would take to a place, where the both us will not get disturb,  a rooftop of some sort. I will tell the player to stop prop spamming, and tell him the punishment he will get given, and would also tell him to delete his props. If he continues spamming props then i would be forced to jail him, and give out the correct punishment. (Permanent Ban).
 

Answer the following questions in detail:
1) Explain the difference between Tier I rule-breaking and punishments and Tier II rule-breaking and punishments:
Tier 1 rule-breaking are considered as a misunderstanding by a player, or making a mistake, he is not even aware of.
A Tier 2 rule-breaking are considered as a player intended to break a certain rule, or constantly breaking rule, even the player were given verbal warnings before or a Tier 1.
2) Explain the difference between IC and OOC. Also define Meta Gaming:
In-character is purely used for role-playing only, for example if someone is playing as a 1.SS member, then they  would RP as that person during the period 1943. They would need a clear understanding of what is happening and major events during the year 1943. And of course they do not mention any OOC information, while being in-character.
Out of character is used for players, who want to exchange their views about something, on the server. Players cannot take out of character information and use it in-character, as this could lead to meta-gaming offence. For example a player might look at the tab menu, and find the player in-character name, and then say his name in-character, without actually knowing.
Meta-gaming is caused by when a players is taking out of character information, and using the information in-character. For example a member of the Berliner Ordnungspolizei, might use the tab menu, to see what the player's job is and name. Depending on the job title, the player might get arrested, due to the fact he is part of a criminal organisation.
3) Explain the difference between Serious RP and Semi-Serious RP:
I define serious RP that every action you do or say on the server, it is taken in-character very seriously. The player must RP that character or job, of what it was like back then. Of course there is no out of character to be used as well.
I define Semi-serious RP a more relaxed alternative in caparison to serious RP. Of course this means that players, can be less attentive of what role he is playing as, and not taking it seriously. The player may also use out of character information.
4) Define PassiveRP and explain it's role and importance in a serious RP gamemode:
When there is PassiveRP on a server, especially on a Serious RP server, then it makes everything more realistic and gets a player making sure he is doing his job properly. PassiveRP includes a player having a business or a company on the server for example having a restaurant or a shop. Players also have a choice to use the "/me" technique on the server, for example "/me finds paperwork in the car, and locates a name, who is the owner of the car". If PassiveRP is non-existent on the server, then it would be lacking the realism aspect of it.
5) Define the term of Combat Baiting:
I define combat-baiting as a player is forcing another player to use combat against him, which is a warn able offence. For example a German civilian might go to the military base, and spawn in a communist flag, in-front of the entire Wehrmacht members, who are present at that time. This would means that the Wehrmacht would either shoot at the player or try and arrest him. Or another example is a player is deliberately multiple times drawing out a firearm in-front of Reich officials.

Explain in length and detail as to why you deserve staff more than other applicants. Explain what you will bring to the staff team & your strongest points as a person/potential staff member (200+ words):
In my humble opinion, the reason i deserve a staff position on this server, is because i am very active player, playing on the server everyday. With my great activity, knowledge and competence, i managed to get IC roles on the server, which is very hard to get, and i see this a great achievement so far for me. Another reason why i wanted to join the staff team, is because i want to help new players who join the server first time, giving them detailed responses, and get them on their way. With me joining staff, i see this a long time career for me, as i would like to contribute to not only the server but the whole community, which is my long term goal. With my experience in the SS, i would like to improve players who are in the SS branch, to extend their knowledge and what to do in a RP situation, especially for new players who are looking to join the SS branch. You can expect me to play on the server everyday, sometimes all day or in the evening. I feel like now with the playtime i have and the experience being in RP situations, i have the knowledge of the server rules, and enforce them if broken by a player, since it would be my job make the server stable, and also make sure the players are having fun also. So far being on the server and part of the community, i see myself being very dedicated and loyal to the community as a whole. One of my strongest points is that i do not get stressful, during intense situations, this would help me, taking multiple sits, and be confident of what i am doing. Also i am not a impatient person, even though if someone is stuck on something for a very long time, at the end of the day it is my job to help players, not to ignore them. Another reason i wanted to join staff is because, there is still a waiting time from someone from the staff team on the server to respond a player's request, i would like to decrease that a lot, so a player doesn't get annoyed or impatient. Finally the reason i would like to join the staff team is because i am very loyal to the server that is being offered to the players of the community and even outside of the community. I see this a long term career for me, as i would like to contribute not only the server but the whole community as a whole, and make sure that everyone is feel welcomed. I think i will be a great asset to the staff team.

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

Ehm no this is handled OOC as RDM is  FailRP as he is randomly killing people what makes it an OOC situation. You would take the accusor into a sit and ask him what happend, than ask for evidence and look and the logs to see what happend, than bring the accused and ask him what happend ( short version what you could do ) and if he was RDMing than warn him for RDM and dont take it IC
 
Its your job to punish people for OOC rulebreaking not CP, I think you dont get what staff is, dont take OOC things IC, this is a serious server so we want that everyone is RPing serious.
 

You could warn him for FailRP as he is not RP properly but yeah this time you can report it as it is an OOC and IC situation
 

Yeah you cant know the rules, so its a bit unfair but you could´ve just have a look at the NRP rules and punishments where you would´ve seen its a perma ban

 

Ok Tier I is if it was accidential or if the accused didnt know it was a rule , Tier II is when it wasnt an accident and the accused knows exactly what he has done and that it was a rule ( in really short terms ) 

To come to an end  you had several things wrong by taking OOC things into IC punishment  aswell as some smaller things like Tier 1 an Tier 2, you couldve read the NRP or SWRP rules as I dont think there is a huge diffrence between them. Keep in mind that this is a serious server. And tbh I dont know you really well so it would be a + point if the community gets to know you and not only for playing the beta. 

But anyway good luck to you

I like the application, however there are a few things in minor detail. Fusion has explained to me about his situation with dyslexia and there are obviously a few minor spelling mistakes. Fusion Has previous experience as staff on other servers which makes him a great candidate for staff. I believe he should be trusted with power like this as he has also reached multiple high ranks in SWRP which shows dedication and hard work to the server and community. Overall I believe the positives outweigh the negatives.
