Introduction: Hello everyone, I am TimtheFireLord and here is a quick introduction to my life in and out of Meep. In my free time I enjoy listening to music, playing on Meep and other games (mostly Meep though), rock climbing, playing with my siblings, reading, and building Legos. I usually play on Meepcraft later at night, which is why some of you on the East coast have only seen me a few times. If you want to catch me online check at around 11:00, which is when I usually log on. I am in 8th grade, and am enrolled in all honors classes and a program through Johns Hopkins University called the Center for Talented Youth, through which I was recently awarded a medal for scoring in the top 5% scorers in the world on the SATs. (If you're in CTY, tell me and we can talk. :D ) I have ADHD in real life (yes I was officially diagnosed) and I have to be medicated at the daytime to keep me calm. However, when I am on Meepcraft it seems to work as well as the medicine, because if it didn't then I would most likely have been perm-banned a few months ago. I am extremely active on forums, I am on them at least 4 times a day for 30 minute to an hour periods. I was the mayor of the Alpha town NightVale until a glitch removed my plot and my mayor rank (it is being fixed now). I used to barely be on TeamSpeak, but I have now been improving my activity a lot, and am on TS almost every time I play on Meepcraft. I have never been banned or temp-banned in the six months that I have been playing on Meepcraft, and am proud of that. I have made a whole lot of friends over the past half-year, and I honestly have as much of an attachment to some of them that I do to some of my friends I know personally. I tend to think of myself as a very social person, to the point that I almost talk too much sometimes. I have been told that I am funny, but I just speak my mind and it ends up coming out funny. I am also a pretty modest person, so some of this stuff will probably be a bit of an understatement. And now that you know a whole run-on paragraph of information about me, let us progress to the important parts.
Why you should be a Meepcraft staff member: I believe that I am fit for the position of helper on this server for multiple reasons. This section will be in the form of a list with elaborated reasons after the bullets, but you can simply look at the headings if you are tend to skim through applications.
[Community Involvement] - I like to think of myself as very socially active both in real life, and in Meepcraft. Whenever I am logged on, I am either talking in shout and TeamSpeak, or AFK to post on forums. I am active enough that I'm kind of well known in the Meep community, I think. And by participating in shout, I don't mean advertising my town, I mean actually contributing to conversations and starting some of my own.
[Helpfulness] - I know this is kind of a given fact for anyone who is seriously applying for staff but I love helping out. Obviously I do, considering I am applying. But anyhow, I try my best to answer any questions I see presented both in shout, and on forums. However, a lot of the time I message the person their answer if the explanation is longer and will clog up chat.
[Personality] - I have been told that I am nice, and I do try to be as hard as I can, and actually get upset if I offend someone. I am slightly sensitive when it comes to that kind of thing. I think it's honestly better to be a fun person to be around and tries to make normal conversation and make people laugh than to be someone who makes fun of people in shout and is well-known for that instead of their trustworthiness or kindness.
[Helpfulness Part Two: Personal Issues] - While I do love helping people enjoy their time on the server, I honestly get the most satisfaction when I help someone out with issues in their social or personal life. It literally brings a smile to my face knowing I have improved their lives. If you had read my previous staff application you would have seen the story about FlameViper, which literally changed my life view. But I have also helped @@Killer2themx out when he felt betrayed by the rest of his friends, and needed a new one. I tpa'ed to him and we became good friends fast, and spent the next hour running around his town and trying to build a super-secret waterfall spy door. :)
[Staff Experience] - I am friends with a good handful of staff members so I know what it is like to have to stop what you are doing at a moments notice to take care of a modreq, and I am ready for that responsibility. I am also the mayor of the alpha metropolis, NightVale. In my opinion it takes dedication to have your money sucked out day by day out of a loyalty to the community you made and a sense of being a role model and home-giver to those that live there. I only have about 220k in the town bank and my personal balance is approximately 4k, which makes it hard at times but the town staff and I all find a way to keep it going. :)
[Activity] - I am very active on Meep, so active in fact that I once stayed up all night on a Tuesday school night playing Meep, and I still made the bus the next morning. You can even look in Xxnine_tailsxX Signature that I need to go to bed. :P
[Availability of Proof} - I record absolutely every time I play on Meepcraft so I am able to provide video evidence of any kick or ban that I make. I am also working on setting up a YouTube channel so that I can post these, because a select few are quite amusing.
[Free Time] - I am usually just running around towny or playing a minigame when I am in-game, so I have plenty of time to do modreqs.
Weaknesses:Here is a list of all the negative traits that I possess which may possibly hinder my ability to be an efficient and respectable staff member. Now keep in mind that these are simply the weaknesses that I am aware of, so feel free to include more that you have noticed in the comments section if you feel that I missed one.
[Personality] - I can be immature at times, but not in the sense that I am making offensive jokes or "trolling", just that I sometimes spell words wrong on purpose if I want to convey the sense that I am using a certain voice or I want to sound silly. I also can have an overbearing sense of humor and I like to make people laugh, which could be a negative.
[Typing Skills] - I tend to misspell words when I am typing rapidly, and still use what is known as the "pecking" typing method, which could hinder my ability to type commands in a rush, such as kicks.
[Sleep] - Due to staying up late constantly for Meep, maybe once a week I take a night off because too much Meep can be a bad thing. This puts a small dent in my activity, but hopefully it is not a concern, because my health is important. xD
Conclusion: Alas, thus ends Timmeh's Meep-staff application. Please feel free to comment on your opinion as to whether or not I am suited to serve the server (See what I did there? *wink wink*) Put a -1 if you believe I am not fit, a +/- if you believe I have potential, but am not ready for now, and a +1 if you think I should be a part of the team. Thank you very much for reading this application, and I am immensely looking forward to hearing your feedback.
