When did you join Meepcraft? September 21 2014

Introduction: Hey, I’m SpongeyStar (Sidtheseastar on forums). I am a 16 year old from NZ. Most of you know I was previously staff, and I would like to rejoin the team.
My hobbies include programming (HTML, Python, C++ and currently learning Java.), reading and cooking (and watching Spongebob!). I also enjoy playing games. I have been on Meep since September 2014 and love every bit of it! Some of my favourite classes include Maths, English and Digital Technology. I aspire to become a Software Engineer when I graduate high school. In my free time I also enjoy playing Badminton.

I love meep mostly because of our amazing community, it’s a joy to have been a part of it as long as I have been. I’ve made a load of friends that I don’t think i’ll ever lose and I enjoy making people laugh with my personality. Meep stands out from the other servers I’ve been on because many servers have an abusive, unrefined community, which drives some away, but many servers also don’t care because they already have enough games to keep players coming.

Why should you be Helper? As I said previously, I was a Helper/mod on Meep. I really enjoyed the experience and helped out as much as I could. I get sort of a buzz when I finish modreqs and players are happy because I know I’ve answered someone’s question.

Activity: I might not be as active as I use to but I try to commit to getting on Meep every day. I also think my timezone can become handy as it is different to most others, there are generally not many staff on in my timezone. I get on forums every day to see what’s happening and if there are any new updates I’ve missed out on in game.

Experience: When I was first staff, I was too scared to catch hackers. I only ever did get one hacker but not the rest since I thought I might be wrong a few times. The second time I was staff, I grew more capable to catch them and it was easier to spot. If I wasn’t sure I would ask. I did not want hackers to ruin other player’s fun. I also involved myself in creating outlines for things on trello and joined a few suggestion meetings on teamspeak. I feel I have more experience now.

Dedication:
- Before Meep’s reset - I have an alpha town called Verdana. However since the release of Gamma, less people have been in alpha and my dreams of having my town as one of the biggest were kind of ruined. I had built around 6 houses and found a really nice spawn but then I felt like it was all a waste. I did not want to let go of it though, it was my dream to make it big so I am going to make it big. I am dedicated to my town and won’t let go. Sometimes if I haven’t been on Meep for a long time, a few days, it feels as though I’ve let go of really close family. I know I said before ‘I’m going to leave for a while,’ but I just can’t. It’s hard. I’ve been attached to Meep and don’t want to let go.

I might have come off a bit rough after that thread ‘ok.’ I wrote about Meep’s staff. I just wanted to express my concern but I will tell you, I will always love Meep no matter what.

What are your weaknesses? Teamspeak: Getting on teamspeak is a little struggle for me. a) I am not really allowed on it and b) I am very shy to speak out. I can find a few times when I can get on but it’ll be rare, however I will try my best.

Decision making: I tend to go with decisions without thinking about them thoroughly. An example would be when I wanted to apply before for staff but didn’t really think of the future e.g how school would go, how I would get on ts etc. I feel this will affect my position as a staff member but when I do make important decisions I will think what’s on the line.

Immaturity: Yes, it’s been 2 years and I still feel as though I have an immature side. It’s probably hard to let go of because we all have that side at some point. When I’m with my closest friends I let loose of immaturity but if I see that happening when I’m doing a modreq or such I will stop myself and tell ‘No, I need to stop being immature and just do my job.’

Time: Currently it is the school holidays so I can get on Meep (not currently as it is down). However when school starts in around a month, I won’t be on throughout the day. I will be making sure I leave enough time for studies and Meep.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: Thanks for reviewing my application. Feel free to ask any questions below. - Spongey.

 

Im not sure if this is an appropriate time to apply for helper due to the server resetting and all so +/-0

 

It'll be considered once we get all this sorted out.

Sid, or spongey, you are a dedicated player to the community, and with your past experiences, I think you could make a great addition to the staff team.
+1, keep at it, you are an amazing meeper and you were an awesome staff member
(by the way, why did you resign previously?)

 

Exams started to come up soon and I really didn't want to get too distracted as they were important exams.

 

I think you are qualified and you can do a great job. Im pretty much the same about teamspeak... lol
+1

 

+1 Your an amazing meeper and you will be a great addition to the staff team .

 

I rarely see you but this is most likely due to the fact that, as you said, you have a time zone that is different than most people. I think that you could make a great helper! +1 for me!

 

You're consistently positive and show genuine concern for the server as a whole, not just whether or not you can get staff. You were great previously as well, and I have no doubt in my mind that you'll be a great staff member once more if you're accepted. +1

 

strong +1

we need this star back

 

Great staff before/Experienced
Trustworthy
Positive community member
+1

 

you're a dedicated member of the community and you have plenty of experience. +1 spangey =)

 

-1
You continue to lie. We all know that nobody lives on this "New Zealand" place.

But really though +1 <3

 

+1
Sponge, in all the time I've known you, you've shown that you are very mature when you need to be, you're highly trustworthy, hard-working, dedicated to whatever you put your mind to, and overall a great meeper and a good friend. Good luck!
P.S. I'm so so so sad that I hadn't come back to meep in the time that you were staff lmao rip

 

Spongeyyyy!!!!!! Oh my goddd!! I thought we agrees on me being the only reference but so it goes...

+1 all the way. No matter how hard I continue to struggle spongey has always been there to catch me during a freefall. You truly are one of my favorite people ever and to not sound bias i will explain my logical reasoning as to why

+you are always there for people ehen they need something no matter who they are or you history with them, that is truly character
+you completed your modreqs thoroughly and efficiently, i am a witness to that.
+you are a very very funny individual and you never fail to brighten ones day when it's needed the most
- ur a little immature in game and do sometimes get out of control.

Your honestly one of my best friends for a reason because I can trust you with a lot of my stuff knowing you'll have some logical reasoning to help me through it. +1 for helper->mod->super because you are everything the team needs and more during this time.

 

So, Spongey.

You have been harassing me repetitively by calling me lime and whatnot. Like why? I'm sorry but I have to vote....

+1!!!

You have been a constantly positive and kind member of the community. You are very friendly and easy to talk to. We need some goofy goobers in the staff team. You have contributed a lot to lighten up the community despite all the mess. I can't even find anything to object besides you calling me lime ._.

Who cares about your immaturity. It's not toxicity, but it's just friendly immaturity. We need to chill out and go easy, both the staff team and the community. I think you will be a great addition.

A lime +1 from Natsu

 

Thanks a bunch of limes

 

+ experience
+ nice
- not enough onion rings

+1

 

+1 Don't ever leave us again

 

You were a good staff in the past and i'm sure you'll be even better now. And honestly, I don't see that your immaturity should be a problem because you do know when to draw the line and get serious again and who doesn't want a little humour on a boring day! +1 love ya weirdo 10/10 memes

 

Haha sure....I might be lying about that


Thanks all for your feedback so far!
