Introduction:
Hello! I am Bob4444444.
I participate in many activities outside of the videogame world.
I have played piano for many years, and I still play the piano today. I play various sports; such as golf, basketball, etc. I am involved in a robotics league (FLL) and we have made it to state finals two years in a row, which has been a great accomplishment for the tean.
School has started once again, and I will have a lot of work to do. I strive for High Honors as an excelled student in Advanced Math and Advanced English/Literature. Academics is my primary focus, but I often play on MeepCraft.
I will maintain my activity as much as possible.
I have been playing Meepcraft since August 19th, 2013 and I have grown to love the server and the community. It has been such a great time for me! I am an ex-moderator here, so I have experience with being a staff member.
I am also a Co-Mayor in GingerManOWNS' town in Alpha (Butterland). In the time I have been playing Meepcraft, I have made a lot of friends, and I have done so many unforgettable things here, and I have enjoyed it all greatly. I am here, once again, applying for staff. I hope to get accepted yet again, and get the chance to finally rejoin the staff team.
Why you should be Helper?
Experience- I was staff here for about 2 and a half months before. In that time, I learned a lot on how to be staff. I understand most things about Hawkeye, and all the other commands staff use to perform their job. That is surely a benefit to being staff here. I also know a lot about how staff runs, and what to do with reports and all the other things you do as staff. I have done about every type of ban, so I know what to do in most situations. I believe with all my knowledge of how staff works and how to do staff work and such, it will greatly benefit.
I also have been co-mayor in GingerManOWNS' town (Butterland) for a long time. I have been a great leader in the town. I have done the work that I am supposed to; such as inviting people to the town, clearing plots, donating lots of money, and providing my time to just keep the town running alive and successfully. I do a lot of work for town, and I do not abuse my powers. I use them to do work in the town, but not for my own purposes.
In real life, I have many skills, such as leadership and intellegence. I try to use these skills to the best of my abilities being staff. My real life skills affect my ingame attitude sometimes, which really helps me when I need it. In real life, I work and I get things done. That is what I did as staff before, and I plan to do that again.
Work Ethic- I have a very strong work ethic/performance. Being a helper last time, I did more modreqs then what was expected of me, and I always tried to do that (I did about 1000 modreqs before I was demoted last time). I did as many reports/modreqs as I could, and I did them all to the best of my abilities. Whenever I start something, I finish it, and that is what I plan to do as staff. I always tried to perform as greatly as I could, and I barely ever slacked off. I did about 16 xray bans, and many other bans; such as scamming, theft, grief, etc. I did a great amount of work last time and I plan to do the same or greater if accepted this time.
Dedication- I have a big dedication to Meepcraft. I enjoy everything about it; including the forums, ingame, Teamspeak, and the entire community in general. I try to make time for Meepcraft everyday. I honestly am commited to Meepcraft, and I always try to go on all three aspects of the server as much as I can. I have been dedicated to Meepcraft for a long time now, and my dedication here just keeps on growing and growing everyday.
Involvement- I am very involved in the server and in the community. Whenever I go ingame, I am talking to people most of the time, and it really builds up my bond with the community. I also like assisting people in shout/global when they are having troubles and ask for help. Now for Teamspeak. Whenever I go on Teamspeak, I mostly always talk, unless I have people around me. Other than that, I love actually talking to people on Teamspeak. Now, for my favorite part; the forums. The forums is my favorite place to get involved with the community. There's always so much action going on, so much activity, and it's a great way to get involved here. I always like talking to people on forums, and I really feel involved with the rest of the server while on forums and doing posts and such.
Weaknesses:
Since my demotion, I have worked on my weaknesses greatly. I understand why I was demoted, and I have tried to fix them. I have tried to overcome them, and I have succeeded so far and hope to fix them even more than I already have. Here are a few of my weaknesses and how I have been resolving/resolved them.
Immaturity- This is my main weakness, and it always gets to me. Sometimes, I can get very immature. It happens on forums, ingame, and mostly Teamspeak. I try to be funny, but every once in a while I may go out of hand. However, I have been being more controlled and thinking about what I say before I say it. But, I always get serious when needed. I never goof off and act immature when the job needs to he done, nor do I plan to. This weakness has become more controlled after the last few months, but still, I can't say I'm invulnerable to it.
Attitude/Self Control- Sometimes, it's hard for me to control my attitude. Sometimes I will say not so nice things, and then realize what I have said after. I have worked on being as nice to everybody as I possibly can, even some people who are more than disrespectful to me. Overall, I don't see this as a major issue, but it may affect me once a while, just like last time.
Also, sometimes it's hard for me to control what I say. Most of the time never ingame, but on Teamspeak, things slip out of me. I have worked on controlling myself on Teamspeak as much as possible and I have been more self-controlled on Teamspeak now.
Another this is the forums. On forums sometimes I get a little bit out of hand. I say some rude things and I later understand what I said was not smart or beneficial for me. I have tried to control myself on forums more, and I try to think before I post and see if I am saying my point without coming out rude.
My Demotion:
Most of my demotion was about what I did as a mod, so I will try to explain it in the best sense that is related to helper. I said stuff on Teamspeak that was extremely immature and definitely not the attitude of a staff member. I greatly regret doing that, and I have paid more attention to controlling myself on Teamspeak.
I also did unneeded warning points, and my stupidity did lead to getting people banned on forums. I am greatly sorry for that; I did not fully understand how warning points worked. I plan to be more careful with warning points if I get staff again.
The rest was more stuff I did as mod, but I might as well explain it. When I became mod, I completely changed in the wrong direction. I started doing unnecessary things, and it didn't end well. I greatly regret changing, and I won't let staff get to my head again like that.
The rest of my demotion I would like to keep confidential. But, if staff are interested, I will explain more about my demotion privately if accepted for interview.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, I'm ready to rejoin the Meepcraft Staff Team. I have worked on my weaknesses and feel I have mostly overcome them. It's been a month now, and now that I have worked on the problems I had in the past, I hope that now I can once again join the staff team!
Any criticism and feedback is greatly appreciated!
