Introduction:
It's Shad0w, or as some of you know me as Alex. I go to school in a tech / career academy, and usually I am drowning by homework. I take an AP class which I'm trying to drop, to make more room for my friends and more diversions from my day. I am in 10th grade, and I'm a month away from being 15. I enjoy playing soccer, hanging out with friends, and playing Meepcraft on my pastime.

I used to play Fuzzlr's other server, until one day it shut down. I asked my friend via skype what happened, and he showed me Meepcraft, and how the owner of Meep bought our server. I started playing Meep around April 30th (2014.) I got VIP less than a month later, and then I applied for helper. I got Premium, then helper on July 21st. Now, I am applying for Moderator as I see that there's some potential, and after thinking about it I decided to talk with some experienced players and they told me to go for it.

Why you should be Mod ?

· Experience - Being that I've taken part in plenty of servers, I guess you could say I'm full of experience. Most of them although small, showed me how to use commands and how to control power. Being helper for a few months, I've gotten used to most of the commands, and what to search for depending on the situation. In 8th grade, I also took a part of NJHS, and hosted several events showing me what responsibility in the real world is like. Another good reason could be that I used to hack, and I am able to identify some hacks.

· Work Ethic - Due to the Modreq being reset once we hit 10k, I can't find out my past modreqs, but I'm sure that was around 180 or so. I did slightly less than 200 modreqs within the first 9 days of helper, which is pretty astonishing to me. As of the reset though, I have done 258 Modreqs, for a total of around 450 modreqs throughout the few weeks I've been helper. With my work ethic, I try to stick to focusing on Modreqs, and helping out people in between. You'll see me on shout often perhaps solving a simple question. When they're more intense modreqs, that require higher skill, I try to find what's best for everyone, and what the matter should deal with. If I ever don't know the answer though, I do ask other staff for help on it.

· Dedication - Ever since I started playing Meepcraft, I haven't quit except for one week when I first started. Other than that, I have been playing Meep every day, if not every other day, unless I'm on vacation. With previous servers, I have stuck with them until the end. (The end usually being that they shut down.) Which, is probably 3 or so servers.

· Involvement - Community Involvement is probably one of the most important things in my opinion, as staff are players too, and we shouldn't be too far from other players. In reality, all we have is a few extra commands to moderate things, but that doesn't mean we're more special. I try to get involved with the community as much as I can, and help out with whenever there's helping to be done. Other than that, I act like a player. I live in a town, I build for other players, and I hang around with Meepfriends whenever I can.

Weaknesses:
Unstable schedule - Due to school being stressful and all, and with my family's schedule, I cannot guarantee a time I'll be on. Ever. This usually means I have to go at random times, or I'll have to afk for a moment or two. I've been trying to solve this by getting my life more set up, which will include the next weakness.

Inactivity: Before I get into this, I want to explain why I've been inactive for a while. When school started, my school decided to put me in an AP class. The AP class meant I was bound to have to have no life for 9 months. Being that I wasn't ready for that, I'm trying to switch out, but in the meantime I still have to work for it. This explains the past week and how I've been kind of off-schedule, as I've been dealing with homework. However, I try to post on forums whenever I see something that's worth posting, but just know I'm reading most of it. With teamspeak, I'll try to get on if I have my mic set up, and if I have a few moments to spare. Once my secular issues are resolved though, I'll be more active.

Immaturity: Being that I am 14, I think this is almost everyone's weakness. Occasionally, I might act a bit "childish" for my age. I guarantee, this is only with those I have become closer with, and I've been trying to keep it off Meep and more towards Skype or somewhere where it's not as big as a deal. Of course, I can always stop my immaturity if I really set my mind to it.

Conclusion:
I was told to apply when I felt I was ready, and I considered plenty of things during that time. I decided that I felt now was a good time, and I hope others can see that too. Any type of feedback would be enjoyable, but I ask that you please justify your response as to what I can improve on for next time

 

I can't see why this isn't awaiting interview.
