-1 Think you need to take another walk downtown to really think about if you want to be staff because as the other responses so far have said, seem like you aren't taking this super seriously. I do think you are a nice guy from the interactions we've had, but as staff you gotta know when to drop the bit.

As someone who deeply cares about this community, I try to dedicate my time to give detailed responses to Staff Applications. So I'm going to give an in-depth analysis of what I'm seeing here. If any words I say seem to come with negative intent, I apologize, I mean nothing rude. However, if you can't handle the Platinum heat, you can't get the Platinum approval. With that being said, let me get on with it. So, a few things. Firstly, I can't tell if this is serious or not. No disrespect. But this application is one of the most slim I've seen in recent memory. Plus some answers are wrong. Your community activity is very very low. Plus, this is your first activity on forums in 3 years 3 days and 15 hours of activity over the span of what I can assume is 4 years isn't good at all either. Now onto your application itself.   I'm just gonna be honest, I can't tell if these are serious. I get your whole joke is "haha me walk around fountain like NPC" but these answers aren't seriously written. Also your answer related to signs without raidables is partially incorrect. Overall, a very slim and unserious application with very little community engagement, plus honestly not much playtime in relation to when you started, makes me think that you wouldn't be the best fit for staff. -1 

I appreciate your dedication to the the RP walking you like to do around Aether, it's been rather funny/amusing, but using it on your application for basically every answer makes it seem like you're not taking the application seriously. Having staff members that can joke around is great but they also need to understand that's there's a time and a place and your application is not that. As for your rule answers, they're technically correct, but they also lack detail that would help us see how far your understanding of those rules go. For example, your answer on NLR: "Bogos binton having been recently shot runs back to kill his assailant." in this answer you only say "shot" where I assume you meant killed, as being simply shot doesn't apply NLR. But also, how long should Bogos binton have waited? Another example, "If you get RDM'd are you allowed to kill the RDMer back?: No, just keep on walking" while true if you are killed you should not go back and RDM them back, there's an exception where if you are damaged and not killed (still considered RDM) you are allowed to retaliate and kill them with no repercussion. As for your activity/interactions within the community, you have been fairly active in-game, so far my interactions with you have been pleasant and so are the interactions I've seen with you and other people. However, your activity on the forums/Discord are very minimal and could use some improvement. Overall I'm going to say -1. The main reason for this is due to it seeming like you're not taking the application seriously. If you change your application and improve your answers I'd be happy to change my opinion. Good luck!

In-Game Name: BogosBinton Age: 18 Steam ID (Use steamid.io): STEAM_0:1:43104805 Discord Tag: _nightarcher Playtime (!time in-game): 3d 15h 16m Timezone: US Central When do you usually play? (e.g. Weekdays 5–9PM): Whenever I feel like walking.  Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198046475339/ Why do you want to be Staff?: I would like to be staff so that I could walk around in a more official capacity. I was also suggested the idea by a staff member.  How do you believe you can make Aether's environment better?: I would walk around the fountain. Perhaps even a jaunt over to the slums. Have you read the rules fully, understand and feel comfortable enforcing them as correctly as possible?: I get RDMed daily and have the ability to read (for those who know) Space for any extra comments you might have (feel free to speak your mind): I will continue to walk around. Also get a better CAPTCHA it let a bot through. Rule Questionnaire  Give one example of RDM: Picture this. Bogos Binton walking. Its a perfect day in downtown. And a level 6 runs up and shoots him in the head. Give one example of NLR:   Bogos binton having been recently shot runs back to kill his assailant. What sign would a player place on their base to avoid being raided whilst having no raidables?: RP Base: KOS inside. If you get RDM'd are you allowed to kill the RDMer back?: No, just keep on walking Give an example of a Staff abusing their powers: If a man was walking in down town and staff pulled him into admin land thinking he was a bot and banned him. (That would be just horrible)

Updated Building Rules -> Updated: Raidable bases can be made anywhere other than on or above the street, sewer walkways, non-dead end tunnels or fountain. If building in the street or sidewalk there must be a clear accessible way to get past the base, and it must not block any public entities this also applies if building in any type of tunnel  that is not a dead-end.  RP-Only bases can be built on property you own, or areas that you are first to claim.  -> Added The only exception to building on/above the street is to slightly extend your sidewalk entrance to make it 2 player wide, if necessary.  -> Removed The only exception to building on the sidewalk is to create rooftop access, decorative non-obstructive props or if utilizing mob-based jobs (see below). These mob mega-bases can utilize building on sidewalks as long as they own the property of where they are building and it does not block off any part of the map or public entities.  Updated Kidnapping Rules -> Added Hostages can be kept for up to 10 minutes and can kill themself if kept for longer than 10 minutes. Updated Mayor Rules -> Added You cannot utilize RP Only or Building bases to avoid being raided/killed.  What does this change?  Bases can now be built on sidewalks and utilize shortcuts around the map as entrances such as the elevator - you still cannot build raidable bases in/blocking non dead end tunnels. The Mayor can no longer stay inside of RP Only bases and may be demoted if caught.  The kidnap rule was updated so that players can kill themself if kept longer than 10 minutes, due to the current kidnap system not auto executing when kidnapped.
