Best Posts in Thread: Monkeyhead's Helper App

App was okay, but after you reported me for making a joke (which was quickly overturned), I can just tell you are going to be another no-fun staff member like abbythrowsstuff that takes things way too seriously. -1

Introduction:

Hello, meepers! Here I am again, same old intro. My name's Alexia, currently and elite on Meep craft. In this crazy thing called real life, I am a dancer and I do martial arts, and occasionally you can see me on Teamspeak practicing guitar. I like to draw and sketch, and sometimes I make art using online images, similar to how Chaos546 makes her signatures.


I've been playing meep since August 29, 2013. I remember when I was just a wee nublet, asking how permissions worked, how to get to wild, and making my first town. I've come so far since that first month, and I tried out for staff. I was staff for about two and a half months, before being demoted because I wasn't professional. I did a lot of silly things, from making a minor sex ref to being extremely immature and selfish. I acting like being a staff member made me special somehow, which is definitely not the case. I regret making the mistakes, and I want another chance to be on the staff team.



Why you should be Helper?

As said above, I was helper before. I know all the commands, from long HawkEye searches to the /modreq commands. I help out in shout as much as I can, and try to never go AFK for more than about five minutes. I know I can complete any job you throw at me, to the best of my ability, and I know I can ask any questions to higher staff if I need it.


I was demoted. I made a bunch of stupid, stupid mistakes, and I think that the demotion taught me a lot. I've talked to some of the higher staff member,s looked over the tips, and realized what I did wrong. I got wore out after a bit, and I put quantity over quality, which was bad. The number of modreqs you do don't matter – what matters is that the person that filed to modreq is satisfied.


I'm ready for another chance, and I'm hoping staff members, both older and newer, give me that chance. I want to fill in the shoes of the resigned helpers.
Weaknesses:

One thing I've been working on a lot the past few weeks – Maturity. I need it. Staff are allowed to be silly, but still need to act professional. I know how to be mature,

One thing that's gotten a lot better: My pride. I was afraid to ask questions, especially when my mod applications were up. Really, I was embarrassed to ask questions, and there was no reason for it, and it could have made the job easier in the long run. I know better now.

One thing that I have to work on – Patience. Kind of self-explanatory here, but I have trouble waiting for things. I have no problem with answering the same question over and over again, but when it comes to ''I'll get it to you tomorrow'' I get antsy and sometimes irritating.

Conclusion: I know what it takes to be helper, and more so since I got demoted. I miss it, I miss the modreqs, and I miss being with the staff team in general. If I'm given this chance, I promise not to let anyone down.

 

I am so sorry Monkey, but -1
First of all, the app was short. I know you could've done better than that. Second of all, I don't think you should be helper again, or not for a little while. When you first were helper, you were amazing and did your job. But, when you were accepted for a mod interview, you changed. You didn't do nearly as much work and you became extremely immature. You did very stupid things after that, and you almost got demoted. You were taken out of the interview folder, and given a second chance. You blew the second chance. That is the main reason for this -1. You were given 2 chances, and you didn't attempt to change after you were almost demoted. You then got demoted, and started cursing like crazy in Teamspeak. After a day you realized you wanted to be staff again, and started doing all this stuff. Most of the time we talk, it's about staff and when you want to apply. You seem very desperate for the position. Ever since you got demoted, your activity has heavily decreased. You don't seem interested in the game anymore, just helper. I barely see you anywhere anymore, and I don't think you are ready for helper just yet. I'm not telling you to stop trying, but I think you should wait a couple months before reapplying.
Good luck Monkey, but I don't think you should be helper just yet.

 

Actually that would be a pretty good idea
