-------------------------------------------------
Long Answer
Questions proceeded with an asterix require a response of 3 Sentences Minimum.

What is your motivation/reason for applying?:

I am applying for staff because I am often on very late at night where there will still be 40-60 people on the server, but often no staff. I see minges beating people with bats or repeatedly breaking NLR with no staff to stop them; sometimes I’ll want to make a PK ticket or report ltarp and there is will be no staff on to take the ticket. I’d like to help out by being available during those times where other staff are sleeping, and I think having staff available at those times would also encourage people to RP more during those hours as some people avoid being on at late hours due to the lack of moderation.

Why should you be considered over other candidates?:

I think I should be considered over other candidates because I thoroughly know the rules, because I have been long enough to know how the rules are supposed to be applied, and because of my availability. More than just reading the rules, I have learned the technicalities and specifics of how rules are supposed to be applied and the expectations that UA have for how and when rules should be enforced, from the simple cases of things like RDM and LTARP, to lesser-known rules regarding the government and the courts. I have learned the rules very well, will conduct myself well, and I am already familiar with nutscript commands and the stick.

Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long):

I have never been staff on a “major” server before, so I honestly don’t remember any server names, but I have been staff on some crappy nutscript startups, which at least allowed me to become familiar with all the commands.

Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: I have not been banned before.

Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?:

I am certainly well-known in the community, some people love me, some people not so much. From running the City Council and my Newspaper/News Show years ago, to being the District Attorney for a while, to being a Capo in the commission up until a couple months ago, I think I am at least decently well-known in every crevice of our community. I'm certainly known for doing good RP in general, and have a pretty good reputation besides one kind of half exception regarding a few people in PD who still dislike me because of some of the more unorthodox RP I did as DA. Overall though, I am known enough in the community, my reputation is generally pretty good, and the only people who think down of me is because of RP beef, which is cringe to take across characters.

What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?:

I am not sure if I could say one favorite moment here on Diverge. I’ve enjoyed lots of RP, from conducting independent criminal investigations as a cop, to going to all sorts of parties as a mafioso, to hitting the mattresses and going to war as a criminal. Honestly, much of my fun on Diverge comes from hanging out with and talking to other people. The server has a slower pace than most places and people aren’t constantly in conflict, and I think that’s one of the things that makes this place so great.

Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: I was playing in the middle of the night I believe last week, and there was a console message saying to put Pendred as a recommendation if I was on late enough to see it; that’s the main reason i’m applying.
-------------------------------------------------
Problem Solving
Detail step by step exactly the actions you would take.

Someone RDMs and you are currently off-duty. How do you handle this?:

If someone RDMs me and I am off-duty, I would take a clip and ask a different member of staff to handle the situation. Unless I am the only staff on, I think handling it myself would be inappropriate.

You have seen a fellow staff member of higher or equal rank than you abusing fairly often, but never doing anything too noticeable. What do you do?:

If I see another staff member abusing, I would clip the abuse and screenshot any pertinent logs before sending the evidence to an appropriately high staff member.

A member of your faction / friend of yours has a ticket made against them accusing them of RDM’ing, and minging. You know that this person rarely does this when you play with him. How do you proceed knowing this? Does it constitute possible bias?:

If I am handling an RDM ticket and my friend is accused of RDM and minging, I would proceed like any other staff sit. I would ask for a clip and reference everything with the logs and then punish him if necessary. I will treat all players, friends or not, the same when it comes to staff members, and any friends I have that get mad that I warn/ban them for RDM when they do RDM are too dumb to be my friend.
