Steam Name: Optical-4-2-0

SteamID64: 76561198026110833

Discord Username: optical5785

Timezone: UK GMT.

IRL Age: 22 (23 on the 14th of October).

Time Played on the Server: N/A (planned on playing on release).

Your current OOC rank (User/Donator): User.

Do you have a mic & will you use it?: Yes.

Are you consistently active on the Discord, Forums, and server?: I'm as active as I can be, i'm typically overlooking the updates and waiting for the chance to play, alongside many others. 🤪

Have you read the Server Rules and Discord/Forums rules? (If not, read them before continuing.): Yes, I have.

Staff Recommendations (Listed staff members will be asked to verify): I asked Sabbath about the process and he'd asked me to apply.

Basic Information Section, IC Character names, ranks, and a brief overview of their duties/everyday activities in a list format: N/A.

How long have you been roleplaying?: I've been roleplaying for years, I was widely known for my character Friemund Schonemann across many communities, but generally started at a young age and haven't given it up since, I even have some communities of my own.

Have you received any Warnings or bans (including verbal warnings)? If so, what were they for, and what could you have done to prevent getting them next time?: N/A.

Have you ever contributed to the Server in a significant way (OOC or IC)?: I plan on doing so once the server is open, however, I had felt that generally speaking I would be able to contribute more as a staff member, given my experience I feel that I would have the patience to properly and justly deal with situations, I have seen it in the past where you get incompetent staff who take this game far too seriously, when realistically most of us are here to have a good time and escape into the virtual world.

Why do you believe you will make a good and productive addition to the Staff Team? [75 words or more]: As previously mentioned, I have experience in having two communities of my own, I feel that I would be a valuable asset to the staff team as I would be able to proactively feedback my own ideas whilst also being able to put in the hours to help out where possible, I feel like the key asset of any staff member should be the willingness to openly debate one another's ideas whilst coming to a consensus, whilst also being able to openly agree to disagree, the general core values that anyone should expect.

Explain what the following words mean: (MRDM, VDM, RDM, IC, and OOC).

MRDM (Mass Random Deathmatch) - MRDM is mass random deathmatching, this is when a player decides to excessively kill others without any valid reasoning and/or roleplay.

VDM (Vehicle Death Match) - VDM is when a player goes around in their vehicle running them over/deathmatching them with said vehicle, for no valid reasoning and/or roleplay.

RDM (Random Death Match) - RDM is when a player decides to randomly kill a player without the proper roleplay or means to do so.

IC (In Character) - In Character is how your character is portrayed, this is generally used to portray the atmosphere of roleplay and has players adhere to the environment around them in the appropriate manner.

OOC (Out of Character) - OOC is out of character, this is typically stuff that happens out of RP and isn't usually taken seriously, depending on the contexdt.

What is metagaming? - Metagaming is the mixing of OOC information into IC, this happens when a player learns something out of IC means and decides to use it against another player.

What would you do if somebody were to RDM another player? - Depending on the severity I would adhere to stripping them of said weapons, slapping them with a warning and a kick, if the behaviour continues or escalates, look into more serious measures for dealing with such inappropriate behaviour.

What would you do if somebody were prop spamming? - I would ask them to remove their props, and to cease on the spamming, if they were to continue i'd give them a warning, and if it still persisted i'd just blacklist them from using their physgun/toolgun flags.

Explain the difference between Tier I rule-breaking and punishments and Tier II rule-breaking and punishments: They're a different type of severity used to measure the punishment a player is given for their actions, every server uses a different model for their severity depending on how strictly they enforce the rules.

Explain the difference between Serious RP and Semi-Serious RP: Serious RP typically falls under the category of remaining in character at all times and portraying said character to the best of your ability, this would mean thinking from the characters prospective and behaving in the manner that they would act in, not that of yourself, whereas semi-serious RP typically tends to be a lot easier going but still maintains a degree of seriousness when it comes to IC matters.

What are the duties and responsibilities of the staff team? [50 Words or more]: Members of the staff team represent the community and the members of said community, it would be their upmost responsibility to conduct themselves in a manner that is becoming of themselves and their character, whilst sticking to and fairly enforcing the rules without abusing their power, in carrying out these duties, staff members should also be active and willing to contribute to the team, whilst understanding and working around the different characters alongside them.


Additional Information (N/A if not): N/A.
