Mathew's admin app :) - Mathew_1 - 01-10-2017
Hey everyone, welcome to the thread for my admin application for combat surf
Why invex needs more admins.
The combat surf server really needs more admins. It is becoming rare to see an admin online.
In the past 2 days, 2 or 3 hackers have came on, while players were left to sit and watch. I did try contacting admins and asking for one from the forums but got no response (however they eventually got auto-banned as the server could detect their shitty cheats).
We keep getting mic spammers as well, and theres no point putting an abuse report for a 30 minute mute.
We also got some kid coming on and advertising Matrix yesterday, however we were able to make him rage quit.
Also have seen heaps of telecampers lately.
Of course, at times, no admin is able to come on as they do have other things to deal with, such as work, which is why the server needs more admins.
Why I should be admin.
I believe that I should be admin because I am very active on both the forums and the community servers with the 3rd most playtime on combat surf.
I am well known throughout most of the Invex community (except maybe 1v1 players). I have had at least 20-30 people telling me to go for admin. I've been playing for a while now (nearly 2 years I think).
I am friendly, polite, likeable, always use my mic when i come on (in fact i dont shut up).
I don't think I have broken any rules in like the past year, except for 1 that I will be talking about later on.
I am not toxic towards anyone unless theres a valid reason.
I am not 1 sided, if someone tags me in jail I would ask if they are telecamping (which if they were, they would stop anyways as they have been called out) instead of complaining and saying "stop telecamping!!!!" which really, wouldnt help the situation at all.
I share my opinion to many threads on the forums with detail.
I learn from all of my mistakes and listen to what people suggest for me.
I am also very mature and always try to make people follow the rules on the server.
What has changed since my previous application?
In my previous admin application, I had only been active on servers, and not on forums.
I didn't even meet the requirements of having 25 posts when i made the application.
Since then, I have also met heaps of the other people on the forums instead of only the combat surf community, which has made me more of a "familiar face".
I listened to what people said to me in that application and have fixed those things upon myself.
Mistakes I have made.
I have been lucky enough to get feedback off a few admins. And here i will state the negative feedback/mistakes i have made, as I'd rather myself getting admin properly.
First things first, about 2 months ago a player called "nonono" came on. I didn't communicate with this guy or even know him, but he tilted me hard. I'll be honest though, I had some other stuff going on too, which is probably why this was the only guy who has actually made me pissed. He would kill me and shit talk in the chat outta nowhere. Few days later, ev0 was on with me, along with nonono. The guy kept shit talking on and on and on, I got real pissed (rn im thinking back like lol why would i get pissed off someone online), I was spamming ev0 with messages, saying stuff like "how is this guy killing me?!" and even begging ev0 to ban him, saying "please ban him i'll do anything you want". Again though, i had other things pissing me off at the time and that was like the only time I had gotten so mad.
Another thing stated, is that sometime i pretend to be an admin. Now i want to admit this is true except I never said to anyone "I am an admin" but people would still think it, however I never did something like saying "nice telecamp slay yourself or ill ban you". I joked with people on the server (who knew i wasnt admin), doing stuff like !bam 'player' and then saying oh whoops i spelt it wrong (but they would laugh cuz they would know i aint admin). I do want to state though, when someone was majorly mic spamming or consistently telecamping, i would say something like "stop, dont do it again, ok?" and so they would think "oh shittt this guy's an admin" and would stop, to follow the rules. Since I was told this however, I have completely stopped, not even using it as a joke to players who know me.
Lastly, when I die, sometimes I would get a lil pissed. I think this is most people on the server though, but still, I have been trying to fix it. Sometimes I try to stop myself lol. But now I try saying other things. Like when someone good would kill me, like lagalot, I would say "wow im so bad i got killed by lagalot", which is obviously a joke. Or if someone who wasnt so good killed me, I'd squeeze out a "nice shot". Im sure many players can relate but when I say nice shot, it's because i'm even more pissed hahahaha.
Anyways, thank you to ev0 Tick Sir Lagalot who were involved / pointed these issues out to me so that I could fix/make an improvement in the past 1-2 months.
If I were to be admin.
If I was admin, I would give warnings and offer chances as I believe it is necessary for improvement.
I wouldn't bother banning anyone if they made me mad (just reassuring this to ev0 and others cuz of the previous incident stated with nonono). I know this would be the most stupid thing to do, as I would instantly be perma banned and they would be unbanned, so there would be no point.
I am familiar with all the responsibilities and rules for admins.
I would still be active and still be the same as i am now, I say this because I have seen people change when they become admin, in a negative way.
Thank you for reading this (or not, lol)
Would love reasoning behind neutrals and -1's just to help me with more improvements. If not though, its fine.
