General Questions

  • How can you contribute to Aether?I am able to contribute to Aether in a positive way with my extensive time played (separate account) I am able to help players whenever possible with a good understanding of the rules and a lot of knowledge of the game/server in general. I intend to create a fair and fun environment for all players at all times possible. I've got experience as staff many ages ago with ULX commands and I feel as if i have a lot to offer in terms of dealing with other players as needed.
  • Have you read the rules fully, understand and feel comfortable enforcing them as correctly as possible?: Yes, I feel comfortable enforcing the rules to the best of my ability, and I consider myself to be unbiased in any situation as a means to keep all player interactions fair.
  • Are you willing to listen to any Staff member guide you as a Staff, even if you feel you don't need to?I have no problem with being critiqued and I am perfectly able to listen to any staff member in means of learning something to better help others.
  • Are you certain you will be able to staff for 5 hours a week and finish 15 sits each week?: Yes I am confident that ill be able to meet this at minimum.

DarkRP Rule Questions

  • Raids can last how long?: Raids can last a total of 10 minutes starting after the raid is initiated by advert.
  • 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?: Yes once a party member or anyone raiding dies, the raid is over for them and they must wait 30 minutes after the initial raid advert to begin raiding THE SAME BASE
  • What initiates a raid?: A raid is initiated by announcing you are raiding via advert, "/advert [text]" before using a raiding tool.
  • If no raiding tool is being used can the player steal the item from a base without an advert?: Yes! if no raiding tool is needed to enter a players base you have the right to enter and steal/"raid" items as you please, as long as you are the proper job class that allows you to steal. As stated before you are not required to announce your raid over advert if you do not have to use a raiding tool as leverage to get into a base.
  • 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?: No! Killing a base owner without being provoked and without announcing your raid would be RDM. If you advert raid and the base owner is outside within interfering distance(mic range) you can kill them only after initiating raid with the proper advert.
  • If you get arrested mid-raid can you return after your arrest?: Although being arrested does not invoke NLR, if you are arrested in the middle of your raid the raid is over for you and you must wait the 30 minute cool down in order to raid the same base again.
  • If you get RDM'd are you allowed to kill the RDMer back without repercussions? No. this would be considered "Revenge RDM" which is not allowed. If you are RDM'd you should call a sit with the command " @ [Message]"
  • A player punches somebody unprovoked and runs away, the player who got punched calls a sit - what punishment would you give the instigator?: The instigator has committed RDM! This is a crime punishable by warning however it is dependent on if RDM is a reoccurring issue with the player.  In the case that it is only their first offence Iwould likely give a verbal warning after explaining to them how their actions are wrong.
  • List all default Laws of The Land:
  • Raiding and stealing is illegal.
  • Entities detected bu the contraband scanner are illegal.
  • Harming players is illegal unless you are inside your base.
  • Laws can be enforced with KOS if the player is wanted.
  • How many bases can you own per party?: You may have 1 RP Base and 1 Raidable base.
  • A player is refusing to co-operate with you in a staff sit, how do you handle the non-cooperative player?: Depending on the players behavior I would take whatever actions necessary in order to resolve the cooperation issue such as muting, gagging, freezing, etc.
  • Can you punish a player for intentionally ruining others time, even if they say it's out of fun?: Yes it is punishable, you are not allowed to ruin another players experience for your own personal entertainment/benefit. Such actions show toxicity, and "NiTRP" (no intent to role play)
  • Give an example of a Staff abusing their powers and how you would handle it: An example would be using staff power to assist yourself in a raid or any RP situation because it puts users at an unfair disadvantage, I would handle this by reporting the abuse to staff of a higher rank and suggest any witness to make a report to the Forums with evidence.
  • A player is excessively RDMing, how would you intervene/stop them from continuing and what punishment would you give?: Excessive RDMing, or Mass RDM(MRDM) is punishable by ban. if I were to witness this I would rightfully use the ability to freeze the player or bring them away to a secluded location away from other players to avoid interruptions to their RP experience. If its their first case of "MRDM" i would give out a 3 day ban.
  • A Mayor enabled a lockdown without reason and is refusing to turn it off, how do you resolve this?: I would ask if there was a valid reason for the lockdown. If no reason is provided I would ask them disable the it and I would explain the rules of lockdown. If the action continues after that I would possibly demote the mayor, and they should be warned for job abuse / false lockdown afterwards.

You have maintained your activity on the server since your last application and are a well known member of the community. 

In light of the new information ThiccYe has provided I’m gonna have to change my vote to a -1 that is something that will have to be changed in order to get a shot at the staff team.

I think you’d be beyond capable at staffing, but I still feel like you make far too many edgy/overly sexual jokes towards others. It’s already inappropriate as a player and would be over the line as staff. It only shows others that if you can do it then they can as well, and that leads to them taking it way over the line/breaking rules. 
 

If you can calm down on that front and work on being more professional (and change your discord bio) I think there’d be no problems with you being staff

Adding on to ThiccYe's response, as I agree with all points made;

Staff members should have a level of selflessness and humility that I just don't see with you currently. I think if you were to try and be more open minded and selfless it would certainly go a long way with the community and help you in becoming a better Staff member. That being said, these are all behavioral concerns and can absolutely be addressed and worked on if you so choose. Until I see positive change in these aspects my vote shall remain a -1.

 

Goodluck!
