Current rank: Settler
Which role you are applying for: PvE Developer
Why you think you should become this role:
Being a previous member of the team, I have learned a lot about the process and disciplines required to do the job effectively. Coming up on almost a year since I was banned, I realize now that my aspirations to become a known player of the server through unfairly earned items was not only wrong but stupid. I mean, who pays people shulkers of DBs to fight for them?? I think that I have matured significantly since I was last on the team, not only by age, but my skills and creative thinking. Ask someone like Jake or Foxy, who I send countless ideas to about ways to improve the server through Questlines. The questline I have created below was a quick five-minute discussion between Foxy and me, which I have fleshed into the start of a long line of quests in order to provide new players in-game maps in order to introduce the conquest islands officially and give players a way to navigate them without the use of the relatively confusing dynmap. I think my ability to link quests to real problems and the needs of the community sets me apart from other members. I ask that you take into account the time passed since I was removed from the team before commenting "duperfruit -1" Thanks for your consideration!

When you started playing on the server: January 13th, 2017
Time zone: CST/CDT
How often do you play (hours a day/week): 10 hours a week
Favorite NPC on Loka: Jonah (gone but not forgotten :( )
Example of a quest you would write if you were accepted:

Kerrie the Cartographer Questline
  • Backstory
    • Kerrie is a Garaman native, having grown up on the many bodies of water surrounding its landmass. When he came to Aladra aboard the Vineweaver, he was recruited by its' captain to take maps of the conquest isles, Rivina and Balak, while on its voyage. After taking detailed maps of each island chain on Rivina and using his trusty spyglass to observe Balak, the ship arrived on Aladra. While unloading his maps onto the dock, the combination of a nasty thunderstorm and a misplaced rope caused Kerrie to drop his crate of detailed parchment drawings, causing them to blow away in the wind. Kerrie has spent his days in Aladra mapping spawn since its destruction since The Arrival.
  • Quests
    • Helping Hand
      • Kerrie introduces himself as Aladra's Cartographer. He asks if you're new here and that you need one of his maps of the renovated spawn island. He tells you that Flora has a few extra copies for newcomers in her house.
        • Go pick up a map of Aladra from Flora's House
      • Rewards:
        • Soulbound Map of Aladra
          • This map has banner markers showing the important locations of the spawn isle.
        • Quest "Sharp and Stiff"
    • Sharp and Stiff
      • Kerrie suddenly breaks the quill he's using to draw with. He tells you how he's against the unnecessary slaughtering of birds while chowing into a drumstick. Kerrie tells you how the Ascalonian Seagulls come to Aladra to nest in the palm trees, and that you can sometimes find feathers underneath them. He requests that you find a worthy quill, both sharp to the touch and stiff enough to make a good vessel for ink.
        • Run around the palms of spawn, in search of feathers fallen beneath them.
      • Rewards:
        • 8 Shard Cores
        • Quest "Conquest Cartography"
    • Conquest Cartography
      • Kerrie thanks you for the quill excitedly, and tells you about how long it's been since he had a new quill. "It's been since I arrived here!" he says, suddenly he seems saddened and tells you about how he lost his many maps of the conquest islands, Rivina and Balak. He explains how the maps were lost, and tells you that he saw a map go flying towards the airships. While trying to tell you where he saw the other maps go, he seems to blank and asks for a chance to try and remember.
        • Go search the airship tower for one of Kerrie's missing maps
      • Rewards:
        • Soulbound map of The Rivina Island Chain
          • This map has banner markers for the different groups of islands found on Rivina.
This questline would go on to give players Soulbound maps of Balak, and more detailed maps of the conquest isles in order to provide newer players an in-game method of viewing the map required to do Nyx quests. This allows players to see their location on the map so they can easily navigate to where their quest may be.
 
Always good to have more PVE people especially ones who are passionate about what they're doing but the concern for me is that when working on PVE stuff you know how much room there is for bugs if you look hard enough.

I have no doubt you'd be good for the role but I don't wanna get hurt again froggy fruit :thonkfish:.

A lot of room for bugs to sprout out in the quest system with how many updates it receives. It's been a year since I decided to do some diamond block market magic, and since then, I've hosted a tournament with the kits plugin that's extremely easy to duplicate items with, without abusing it. I've reported a ton of bugs, namely another dupe, this time being void storage. I'd like to host many more tournaments to come, and I don't plan on letting another ban get in the way of them.
 
-1 and +1s without reasons are useless!

A sentry should know, provide a valid reason. "Duping" in the past however damaging a mistake was that, a mistake. Should not rule him out from positions such as this, because he clearly cares about the server and can do good things for it.

I believe it goes without saying he'll be being under a close watch regardless.

+1 from me.

na but fr if someone who was hacking sub 1 year ago applied for sentry or even got nominated for slicer no one would +1 it simply because they dont care about the server imo duping means you care even less about the server then hacking give it a BIT LONGER like January

I disagree with you... if it was slicer or sentry then your argument would make sense however this is for pve dev which is mostly just writing quests and doesn't give any permissions in the main server.

I am hoping that Froggy has learned his lesson and can be welcomed back to the team. +1
