Yes.

I've heard a lot of mixed opinions about you, after reading your staff app I'm with toast on this one. If you plan to actually take staffing seriously then you have my +1 as well.

if you call yourself a gamer why do you shower?

What is with these posts today lmao -
Hey no need to be so defensive, gays are people too you know?

I would say this is a decent application, only real things Im concerned about is your play time as I am not able to confirm when you first joined. Afaik being inactive for a long enough time will reset your play time. Also the application makes me feel like your doing an ad for skittles.
-
There are some other parts of the long answer questions that could be touched on, but for the most part they show you understand, but they are just short and to the point. However the part I quoted, Ill give you the same advice I had given on another application. Say the ticket is made by someone you dont know and the person who RDMd is your friend, youve already taken the ticket, how would you proceed without holding a biased opinion? These types of tickets do happen and knowing how to handle them in a unbiased manner is important.

You had me in the first half, lost me here. Ive put my 2 cents in Im gonna leave it as is.

You have been banned. Whether you did this intentionally or not, these bans were over 3 years ago, so if you didnt remember thats understandable. These questions are to invoke critical thinking on how you would handle the situation. There will be times when you are in RP, and other staff are AFK/handling other tickets. How would you proceed, there is no bias if you are not involved, or someone you may know is not involved. I get where your coming from, so lets rephrase your in RP and an RDM ticket pops up how would you handle the situation. Same question but is a little more clear on what we are actually asking you and trying to get you engaged in. Just some food for thought that could help you elaborate on this. There will be times when you take a ticket from someone you dont know, and the person that RDMd or rule broke, is someone you know or a friend. Ive had a few tickets like that through the years. Its good that you want to be an unbiased staff member, but sometimes your gonna end up in situations where you may have a bias and you'll need to work through that and to make sure your verdict doesnt hold any bias.

The description change problem that no one wants to talk about
Lucid Mangos replied to DaddyD15's topic in Suggestions
Just an idea to add @Canadian-bacon have a separate description for tattoos/cosmetics. Short character limit, appears below description but if your masked its always there. -
Howdy thank you for re-submitting your appeal in the correct location. Obviously I was the one who had taken the ticket which led to your PK. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/kxXUXFnXaP_2Ga0b2?invite=cr-MSx3YzEsNzYyNDUxMQ There is the clip of the altercation that led to your PK. As you may or may not know, starting a violent confrontation with PD and dying will lead to being PKd. In the clip you are attempted to be detained after which you fired upon the probie and ultimately died to the probie. There are no questions of rule breaks in this scenario, you chose to pull a gun on an officer and fire at him and ultimately paid the price. Its not FailRP because the probie kicked you out of the vehicle and attempted to taze you which you responded with violence.

I think there are aspects of this application that could be improved. This for example, is a very straight forward question. What Im reading is, if the ticket is up, Ill take it. Well of course thats what we want you to do but how do you handle the situation? The PK stuff doesn't add anything its just a non-sequitur. This question is more or less, asking you find a staff member abusing the tools their staff character has to be given an edge ICly. Yes both of these examples are abuse and would be valid to bring up. I would offer to think more critically about how you respond and how you handle it as opposed to just outright saying its bad. Other than that I would just say this isnt a bad staff application or that you arent capable, I just see very little critical thinking to some of the questions asked. Critical thinking will become a big part of how you handle sits and deal with staff intervention.

I dont really know you based off game, but from what Im reading from your app, seems like you do care about lending a hand to help the community. +1 from me.

From this "For years, they lived humbly. They worked long hours doing honest labor, stayed low-key, and tried to find their place." to this "warm hospitality on the outside, cold calculation behind the scenes. With connections back home and a knack for moving quietly, they started importing cocaine, using the café as a front." again humble people dont just get up and decide to sell drugs, in fact it goes against what they said in the first paragraph. They left their home country to escape instability and war. Why they hell would a humble family trying to leave that oppressing lifestyle move to America and decide to get involved in organized crime? It doesnt make sense. Im not dick riding, just giving constructive criticism. If I was dick riding Id be showering this application with gold.

i had gotten permant banned for making a second account
Lucid Mangos replied to Bubby2179's topic in Accepted
Im gonna take a leap of faith and assume you younger than 15, because you couldve patiently waited 20 hours to play, but instead you chose to load up an alt. You should really read the rules and play within the rules if you wanted to play so badly, but now you cant so.... cheers? -
This backstory doesn't really put much thought into what the faction really is. Kinda just feels like you put it together just to get it done. A humble group of people regardless of ethnicity don't just move to America become bullied and decide fuck it let's smuggle drugs. There is a progressive history that leads to becoming an organized crime family. Some are bullied by local mobs and and try their hardest to survive the exploitation and extortion, others will work with them and eventually break off and do their own organized crime. Your backstory basically says "we moved, had a hard time, decided you know what let's smuggle drugs." There's no real rhyme or reason to why just that they figured hey were having a tough time living let's do it. Humble people don't make that jump like that.

OH LORD DAVIS BOYS COME BACK BUT SOMETHING DIFFERENT + THE FUCK 1. Miss you bro!
-
I would like more cartels, but your play time just isnt enough tbh. 4Lights def added a layer of help.

Pking Admin here, Thank you for fixing your format. As Toast mentioned above you failed to follow the rules that bound you to a faction. On top of leaving the faction without permission and then proceeding to buy weed at a rank which you were not allowed to do so brought upon your death. When you join any crime faction you are prompted that you are joining a criminal faction and in doing so could put your life at risk.

I do like the idea of a bean bag gun, though I feel like it could be abused. Maybe 1 shot then reload just making a slightly more lethal tazer, or like 4 rounds and only specific cops get to use it in specific situations. Ex. protests, mass gatherings, court protection.

@ZotMVM please follow this guideline Name of Character: SteamID: Your Discord ID#: Date of PK: Reason for PK: Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines:

Its an advert board, Im saying either combine my idea with it or make a separate one. It does not in fact do this, its only used to advertise.
