Staff Apps

I challenge Zevulon's app.
1. He's a troll. 2. He was already demoted. 3. I personally think he should be banned from being staff.

So, YOUR bias against me means I lack qualification? That makes no sense. And, I may not be easy to get along with, but I worked fine enough. I banned who needed to be banned, I warned when warning was needed, and I did my job. I did as asked. Two little spats do not mean I sucked. I did fine. The General is not biased against you. Even if he was, I would say that he has just reason to be. Furthermore, the fact that you are asking for a staff application when not so long ago you were being subsequently banned numerous times is appalling. I find it astounding you even consider such a possibility, when your said "past shortcomings" were quite severe, and merely only a few months if not weeks have gone by since your last misbehavior. Your qualifications mean nothing if you refuse to have the proper attitude worthy of respect both by the staff members as well as the users. Being accepted as a staff member does not give you immunity to the rules placed upon this forum, which you seem to have broken on numerous occasions.

No, the fact that part of the staff can't function with Zevulon means that part of the staff won't vote for Zevulon. It makes perfect sense. Also, if Zevulon thinks that staff don't have to be able to work well together in order to function, then that's food for thought concerning whether he ought to be staff... By part of the staff, you mean you? @spark: 1.) You have said that about a lot of people 2.) I got demoted because of an argument with you 3.) You are just saying that because I barred you from staff applications due to you lording over staff, backseat moderating, and ordering around mods. @ko: While your post does put a good point on my past bans, you fail to see a few things. 1.): It's been made extensively clear that my most recent ban was completely without justification or a current offense to base it on. Even the other two triumvirate members, Veers' own allies, did in fact agree with the ban and it's nature. Do not assume I was banned for any reason that is meaningful, as even Veers attested to the opposite. 2.): Your post does not comment on my abilities as staff. My bans do not have anything to do with my abilities. Therefore, my experience actually DOES link to my abilities, far more so than two bans, one which I have gone to extensive lengths to atone for the offenses of it, and the other of which was done out of nothing beyond completely biased dislike, formed of the baseless decisions of a single staff member.

Ah, now that Zevulon lied that the ban was "completely without justification," I can ban him under the current Zero Tolerance Policy. I have made it clear that the ban was for the offenses, unpunished before I instated the ban, that took place after the one month ban and before his appeal, clearly not "completely without justification"...

Your bans do relate to your abilities. A staff member must above all obey and enforce the rules imposed on the forum. This comes first, and without this your qualities mean nothing.
Also, what of your other bans? Were they placed due to bias as well? I believe many including myself witnessed your childish behavior. Furthermore, what was the "atonement" you seem to have done for said bans, might I ask?

Forget it, I'm done with this. I'm not going to fight you. There is no reason to create needless drama, and there is certainly no reason for me to respond to any form of childish shenanigans. I'm just going to go about my life on the forum. Simple as that.

Actually, for the record, I unbanned him against Veers' will.

Actually, for the record, I unbanned him against Veers' will. Actually, for the record, I don't see you doing any unbanning in the Security Log. It says that I banned him (done via his profile), and afterwards it says that I "updated the ban list." You may check for yourself using my account if you like. The same goes for the chat ban, except you should be able to use your own chat owner account to view the unban list. It's quite possible you are referring to the appealed permaban, in which case you are correct. I had banned the rebel scum more recently, but encouraged to unban him. Well, are there any others who would like to be considered for the position?

We already rejected you from all future staff positions. Changes of heart aside, there is no chance.

Yeah, what happened to not asking for a staff position until 2025?

Yes, I realize that. Don't know what went wrong there. Oh well, back on topic.

Well, I would like to be the chat mod you guys are looking for. Why would I be a good staff member? I am pretty intelligent, and I have a good knowledge of what is acceptable and what isn't. I also am able to use common sense in all situations, and I am able to win most arguments that either I or other people start, so if a troll decides to come and try to hurt other people, I can easily put him in his place even before a ban. I can also tell the difference between a troll and a non-troll. Also, I visit the DBF very often, so I'd be able to catch anything going wrong. I've also been here long enough to know what to expect from people. I hope you consider making me staff

Well, they are looking for chatmods, not mods.

Right... Chat mod then... I will edit the post.

It wouldn't be enough to know what the trends and such on the forum are, but it is long enough to know what most of the people on the chat are like. Also, I am an owner on Roncamp's Powder Game chat, and owner positions there are very hard to come by...

If you think you know how somebody is on chat, wait till he gets on with some others and starts trolling MF.

lol @ troll fest. Although that was pretty mean, and if I was a chat mod, I would have at least toned it down... maybe...

A good mod needs a sense of humor, he/she just needs to throw away the "no fun allowed" and have some fun.
|

Post by izacque on May 27, 2011 17:19:28 GMT
That's true, but only as long as that fun isn't hurting other people's feelings. (as long as the person who's getting their feelings hurt isn't just being hyper-sensitive. Then they just need to learn that not everyone on the internet is your friend )

Well, this is a test application, I don't really plan on actually applying unless SOME people are with me, I am throwing the idea of me being a chat moderator out there.
