    • Before I begin Yes. I am aware I still have 2 active severe warns. One for hate speech and one for racism. These warns were both reduced sentences due to the context, both of which were comedic and not directed to harm anyone. They were just words said in a way that weren't malicious. They were more of a "Platinum, that was funny, but you can't say that word here." I have cleared the situation with every staff member that has asked me directly about it, and Jouaram has said that I do not need to wait for them to expire to apply again, instead I just need to show they are no longer an issue. I have been given permission to share the following screenshot. Ew light mode user, -1. The former was placed over a month ago, the latter was placed almost three weeks ago, with nothing close to resembling both incidents happening since. These are no longer an issue. The handbook was updated very recently, and the punishments I got actually don't align anymore. I hope you reading can look past this like I have.    Now, on with it. In-Game Name (List ALL variations, if accepted your Forum/Discord name will be changed to your most used one): Platinum Age: 23 Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:55287115 Discord Tag: armana Total Playtime (24 hours/1 day REQUIRED): 3w, 6d, 14h Timezone: EST though I'm nocturnal. Steam Profile: https://steamcommunity.com/id/fpsnerdsb3 Times you're most active (If you have a unpredictable schedule let us know): Graveyard shift! 11pm-8am. Though I freelance, so I'm available at any time I'm needed. General Questions How can you contribute to Aether?: I've been on this server since before it was even known as AetherNetwork. I was a former staff when the server was still known as RetributionRP where I did the same thing that I wish to do now, graveyard hour moderation. I'm on the server for almost all of my awake hours and I have helped several new players learn some of the systems. I plan on continuing my consistent activity as well as making sure that there isn't a long period where there are no active staff. I'm going to continue my normal activities as well, not letting moderation take over everything I do, I want people to have a good experience. I am also always watching the forums and Discord like a hawk, consistently posting both here and on the Discord. Have you read the rules fully, understand and feel comfortable enforcing them as correctly as possible?: Yes, several times over. Are you willing to listen to any Staff member guide you as a Staff, even if you feel you don't need to?: Yep, I've done this before! Shoutout to my old mentor Lucifer. Are you certain you will be able to staff consistently every week whilst holding this position?: Yurrrrrrrrr DarkRP Rule Questions Give an example of RDM: RDM stands for Random Deathmatch. RDM is when a player purposefully does damage to another player without an acceptable reason. An example of this is the simple new player buying a gun fresh in spawn and gunning down the first person they see GTA style. If this happens once it's a written warn per the Staff Handbook. Give an example of NLR: NLR stands for New Life Rule. This simply means that every life you get will not carry memories of your past life. A simple NLR that's broken a bunch is a player getting killed for a valid reason, then going back to kill their killer. Another example is when a player's base gets raided. When a base is raided, the player who died while defending must wait up to 3 minutes after death, or until the raid is over, to return to their base. Returning within that time violates NLR. NLR x1 is a written warning, but for example purposes, let's say this player has done it 3 times. This would lead to a 10 minute jail. How many entrances does your base need?: At least 1 working entrance. As well as all base members being on the front door. No movement restrictions allowed and all hallways must be at least 2 players wide, except in scenarios where the map itself won't allow it. What sign would a player place on their base to avoid being raided whilst having no raidables?: Either a BUILDING sign or an RP ONLY sign. Building signs are for players currently building their base. RP ONLY signs are for bases that are strictly for roleplay purposes. A few examples of RP ONLY bases, include shops, attraction builds, and player ran events such as my own Club Mungus. If you get RDM'd are you allowed to kill the RDMer back without repercussions?: If you die, no, that should be a sit or a forum post. However if you do not die to the attacker, yes. If your party member gets damaged are you allowed to kill the attacker?:  In all circumstances, yes. Party defense is a thing on the server. Give an example of a Staff abusing their powers: An example I actually witnessed myself YEARS ago was a new staff member no-clipping into player's base just to "check it out" and "because [he] was bored" Staff are allowed to mess around with their friends, as long as it is just that. But staff are not allowed to use their abilities to interfere with players' experience in any way. They are also not allowed to noclip in public view. Extra Comments: Just like I said last time, I will NOT AFK WHILE I SLEEP if I get accepted. I will keep the game open in my view at all times to take sits, but if I'm not at my pc, I don't want to give players a false sense of security.
