General Questions
How can you contribute to Aether?: I can contribute by bringing a helping hand and bringing good energy to the team. I love helping out new players and making their stay fun. I would also like to make all kind of events to make the server experience more enjoyable and fun for everyone. I have previous experience as a moderator and hope to bring my skills and be useful to this community. And lastly I could also help with the night shift since I notice not that many staff members get on late night.
Have you read the rules fully, understand and feel comfortable enforcing them as correctly as possible?: Yes and I have also took notes of the most common rules I believe I will need to enforce.
Are you willing to listen to any Staff member guide you as a Staff, even if you feel you don't need to?: I am always open to constructive criticism and strive to be better.
Are you certain you will be able to staff for several hours a week?: I am positive.
DarkRP Rule Questions
Raids can last how long?: Raids can be 10 minutes.
If a player in your party dies whilst raiding, how long do they have to wait to come back and raid the same base again?: 30 minutes
What initiates a raid?: The /advert command
If no raiding tool is being used can the player steal the item from a base without an advert?: Yes if you job allows it
Give an example of a valid raid advert (type it as you'd type it in-game): /advert Raid
If the owner of the base is standing outside on their base entrances sidewalk as you're about to raid but haven't announced a raid yet, can you kill them?: Not until you advert the raid.
If you get arrested mid-raid can you return after your arrest?: Not until 30 minutes have passed. Same as dying.
If you get RDM'd are you allowed to kill the RDMer back without repercussions?: You are not allowed to kill them back, that would be considered Revenge RDM.
A player punches somebody unprovoked and runs away, the player who got punched calls a sit - what punishment would you give the instigator?: I would warn them for RDM if not previously warned.
List all default Laws of The Land:
- Raiding is illegal.
- Entities scannable by the contraband scanner are always illegal.
- Harming other players is illegal unless you are defending your base.
- Shooting dangerous weapons in public is illegal.
- Laws must be enforced with AOS instead of KOS unless the Police Officers life is in danger or the player is wanted.
- Non-default Laws must be things that players have to go out of their way to do.
- Laws that are seen as baiting kills or arrests are disallowed.
- The Mayor can choose to make dangerous weapons legal or illegal when owned/held but no other weapon-based laws.
How many bases can you own per party?: One base per party.
A player is refusing to co-operate with you in a staff sit, how do you handle the non-cooperative player?: I would first try to deescalate the situation. If that doesn't work ill proceed with a mute. Then finally a kick/ban.
Can you punish a player for intentionally ruining others time, even if they say it's out of fun?: Yes, having fun at someone else's expense is messed up.
Give an example of a Staff abusing their powers and how you would handle it: An example of a staff abusing their powers would be using admin commands to get an advantage when roleplaying as a regular job. Like getting more health, armor, spawning weapons, activating god mode, etc. I would handle this by reporting it to a upper rank staff member and deciding what the appropriate punishment should be.
A player is excessively RDMing, how would you intervene/stop them from continuing and what punishment would you give?: I would intervene by teleporting them to secluded area. I would then check for previous warning even though mass RDM is a clear ban-able offense. Finally I would issue the appropriate punishment.
A Mayor enabled a lockdown without reason and is refusing to turn it off, how do you resolve this?: If the Mayor continues to do it I would demote him.
