    Introduction

    My name is Dan.

    I’ve started using computers at the age of 6 when my father introduced me to a really old IBM computer. He helped me use Task Manager, basic command lines and flash games.

    I’ve played flash games on and on with my past computer. I also had a PS2, with all the games in the Rachet and Clank series. Love that series.

    I’ve first got into Minecraft in the summer of 2011 I believe. I started to hear about a new online game that was blockly, retro and overall heck of a lot fun. I played around in Classic, then moving on to multiplayer servers. I used to play on many Classic servers. Applying for Op once in a while on servers I felt like needed my services the most. I’ve had one point Op and Moderator on 23 different servers at once, partitioning my free time in 5th grade playing and moderating.

    Certainly, that wasn’t very efficient, however I have had a lot of valuable experience moderating and caring for specifically Minecraft servers. It has been quite a Minecraft journey over these years, and I still have the dedication for my desire for everything Minecraft.

    I’ve first discovered MeepCraft in the middle age of MeepNetworks, the golden era of MeepCraft in my honest opinion. There were new players galore, spawn thriving with random drop parties and the global chat filled with auction wars and such a competitive economy, and who could ever forget the sprawl of PvPers in the great terrarium. Truly a great period of Minecraft excellence.

    I had a nation of Opulence and was God Emperor of Luxury. I had quite more than 3 million back then, and was very affluent in general

    I’ve played on MeepCraft for a good chunk of 7 months, then went inactive until October of 2014 where I started to use TeamSpeak, and started to open up more.


    This isn’t my first application for helper, as I had a interview before and was only declined to due to a slight lack of maturity as I was still a wee 7th grader, by one staff reviewer. I’m now a high school sophomore, and I believe I have built up my skills and strengths, to tackle on the job and responsibilities of being Helper.

    Why I should be given a chance at helper

    I’ve learned many things from moderating Minecraft servers. One must have patience and dedication to be a helper. Without being kind, helpful and understanding, the whole moderation fails to be helpful.

    It is important to answer questions, but going further to demonstrate your explaination and teaching how to solve other questions the player might have is the extra initiative in helping as a moderator. There really is a personal satisfaction when I help a player. They might be confused and mad while I calmly try to help them. When people get stuck, and I help them it truly brings joy and happiness to my heart knowing that they are helped.

    The player base is ever-growing and it has been a amazing set of these years, MeepCraft standing up to the test of time with it’s never-ending brilliance and concept. I am confident that I will be dedicated and willing to spare most of my free time in helping ones in need, old players who returned, etc.

    I have also very patient customer service skills. I have over 400 chats in the Xbox Ambassador service program. I have quite the customer service and social skills to tackle on a big towny server like MeepCraft.

    One of my areas of specialty is bringing experiences and understanding to other players situations. I will try my best to understand and to suit players with different backgrounds, racial profiles and cultures.

    I will always be calm in administrative situations and try to help the best I can. I have specific experience in nearly most administration command systems and will use the commands to the fullest extent for the good of the server and player base.

    As a helper, it is simply easy to catch rule breakers. With Report a Player forum section it is easily for anyone to do a “Citizen’s Arrest” as to say. But with the privilege of Helper commands, I will not abuse, however use them to benefit the server, not to take myself to a higher degree nor take any other non staff to a lower degree.

    Also another reason for a chance of Helper is my ability to keep calm while debating, respecting other’s opinions. I like to debate on the forums and my ability to think deeper and more cognitively will help in making hard and quicker, more informed decisions while administrating on MeepCraft.

    Being staff isn’t about the power. It’s the privilege to help even further than reporting with Report a Player, it’s to set a standard for other staff and to give a good example to the server itself. With the additional tools and commands, I can be able to find griefers, stealers and x-rayers in MeepCraft. I have quite the experience in finding dupers and x-rayers from administrating many Minecraft faction and towny servers.


    Weaknesses


    Skype: I simply don’t use skype as much as any other player might. I have it and fully accessable, but I usually use TeamSpeak for basis of all communications. I find it to be too clunky and interfering with my sound and general communication.


    Straightforward & Crude: I will be very straightforward and crude at times. This might help, however in certain times, players might take that as a offence and might take it as a act of aggression. I do this to minimize personal bias or error. However, I do need to improve on this attitude to improve my overall friendliness.

    Conclusion

    With a chance at helper, I will further help and renew our understanding of what it is to be a staff member. I will show outright dedication and righteousness for all staff members and players to follow. I will teach, love, and guide new players and all players alike as a helper, and will never try to use my powers for my own benefit or another individuals in a malicious way.


    Thank you for your consideration,


    Captain_Twinkies.

    I believe I was online with you just a hour ago, I was frequently advertising my town.
    I should have been very noticeable, however it might have been not apparent.

    Thanks for your comment! I appreciate all comments :)

    Hey Twinkies!

    There is no way I am ever going to give a +1 to someone with such a bad taste of music like yours. (thehe)

    I have seen you IG a couple of times, taking part in activities and talking in the shout channel, I have seen you posting constructive posts on the forums and actively talk on TeamSpeak. I guessed you a bit more than 16 years, though. I am surprised :)

    Overall, I think you would be a great addition to the team.

    Are your reasons since I had shunned and banished you from TeamSpeak due to your constant mic spam?
    I'm sorry if I was a bit brash, but your mic output was quite annoying and loud.

    If there any other reasons, please PM me on the forums if you wish.

    Thanks for replying to my application! I appreciate it!

    You are super nice, kind, active, dedicated, and have a great taste in music (hehe). You'd be a great addition to the team. :)

    +/-. You have wonderful activity, but you don't seem to know how the rules work all the time. you had a great app, but you lack some of the knowledge. Good luck!

    The only real weakness I see in you is assumption. I, not often, however not really rarely either, see you assume things.

    Anyhow +.5

    Changing vote to -1 as well. This is not staff material, even if it is a joke.

    We all say even immature things on TeamSpeak.

    We can all agree that outside of MeepCraft we all use very vulgar language.

    "Butthole" was only a joke to a private member, was not made to be public. If I used the non slang form, I would have been quite guilty.

    Are we to judge me for simply making a joke? I did not use any vulgar language. I am quite mature usually and always when I administrate. I do not usually make any jokes as this unless it is private and with a close friend.

    I am quite surprised that you will simply down vote due to a simple mistake, such a change in attitude. We all make mistakes, but to judge simply on that one mistake and reflect on other experiences is quite disappointing for me.

    I know you guys well, and most of you know me good. I don't go around saying town's are butthole. It was a /w to /r mistake. I do not act immature ever. If there is any other instance of me being idiotic and immature, please bring it forward. Simply finding any mistake you can and posting it is very unfair. This occurs too much and everything will be judge upon. Please review your decisions.

    "Joke" was to be sent via /r not /w, It wasn't be public. I do not think a simple with a childhood favorite "Butthole" joke is that offensive to be considered vulgar nor flaming. If you asked any reasonably active member in MeepCraft, the public concensus would be that I am very active and mature. If you all had +Supported me for being mature all the time, why would you imply I am always immature since of this /w to /r incident? Simply because of assumption you all will turn on me? I find this illogical.

    Don't be too quick to assumption. It's a instinct we all have and leads to bad choices. If future readers see the "immaturity", please also refer to your personal experience with me. I am quite mature enough for staff. I'm not the implication of immaturity as you see here. It's very different to my overall behavior.

    Listening to racially immoral and extremely offensive music is appropriate but saying "butthole" isn't? The standard for rules is really just out of nowhere if items like those. Serious?

    My view of you guys in judgement and morals has deeply sunk to a low. I'm personally surprised.
    Simply because of mentioning a accidental joke by accidentally using /w instead of /r? What happened to the "great addition to the team"? Is the capacity of failure zero to nil? This is what you guys are demonstrating here. As close we strive for perfection, more mistakes and more loses you will get. This is one of them, illogically and ignorantly using one piece of evidence versus personal experiences and social knowledge against one of your teammates' morals.

    However, t
    hank you for your comments, I will strive to perfection and improve.
    I am one to debate all the time, do not take it personally, but take it very seriously.
    Feel free to comment on other posts while putting my application to the side to reflect on your decision. I appreciate you guys taking time to handle other threads to keep calm and reduce bias. Appreciate it.
