SkipioCraftus for Sentry

Just a quick note about the timing of this application. I know I am still fairly new, and I know I probably shouldn't apply for Sentry yet being so new as a Slicer. However... This server has seen a huge in-flux of players, and there has not been an in-flux of Admins/Sub-Admins to match it. I have been online frequently when no guardians and sentries were, and the few slicers present had to do what they could to uphold the rules. I have been watching and hoping someone else would apply, but since no one has, here goes. Again, I make this application humbly, and without any expectation about the result.

Age:
17

Current rank: Slicer

Which rank I am applying for: Sentry

What I think is expected of this rank: I know as I Sentry I will be mostly a chat admin, kicking for swearing, spamming, inappropriate or offensive remarks of any kind. I know I should ban a repeat offender, but only in the most drastic of circumstances. My most important role will most likely be supporting full admins when the server is crowded and holding down the fort when full admins are absent. I will also be expected to enforce the rules within the spawn area and keep tabs on players with /rx... reporting to full admins the details of any situation that may arise in their absence. I shouldn't abuse the few powers I would be rewarded upon receiving this rank, especially /spawn in pvp. For Sentries, a kick or a mute is always the first step, and I should very rarely ban or jail. As a Sentry my responsibilities will not extend beyond spawn and chat unless an extreme situation should arise. I should never think it appropriate to use my rank to fulfill any personal agenda through abuse, threats, ect. This rank would not award me the right to disrespect any player on the server and does not make me better than them. This respect must extend to admins, owners, and wanderers alike. I feel that helping new players is already my responsibility as Slicer, and I will of course continue do that. :D

Why I think I should become this rank: I should be a Sentry because I see myself as a responsible, and kind person. I am usually pleasant, and loyal to a fault. I love Loka. I love the entire admin team and I would love to work with them. I am willing and able to moderate chat. Even though I have been no on Loka long, through long conversations with the veterans I understand the history of the server very well. Anyone who has spoken to me will know I cringe at the thought of disrespecting anyone. I want to keep the server thriving in the new age of Porpoise fans, and protect its integrity. I am charismatic, and I love helping new players. Through my connections in Argus I have a deep understanding of the responsibilities of administrating ranks. I will also have fun being Sentry, which I think is essential for any admin or sub-admin. I will take my responsibilities seriously.

When I started playing on the server: I am not really sure, late October 2014 I think.

Time zone in relation to GMT: EST (GMT -5)

How often do I play (hours a day/week): 4-5 hrs per day vacations and weekends. 2ish weekdays.

Really, really lovely application, and I agree completely that we need new staff members, but I don't really know you well enough to make a call here. If anyone else could give their opinions...?

Same page as Lea. I love the application, it's very, very good. From what I've seen you're a good guy, but like Lea, I'm not sure I know you well enough. Uhm...

Like I said, I've only talked to you once or twice, so I can't really say yes or no.

So, +0.5

The effort that you put into your application is admirable. I also love that your interpersonal communication skills are above many others which is a necessary quality for anyone who wants to help others and even more so if they want to be an admin in any capacity. Some of us fall short with bedside manner, I know.

You're very right that your time here has been far too short to qualify for the position (as far as 'time in service' goes). However it is a crazy time and hopefully we keep seeing the player base increase. If it weren't for the countless hours we've all spent in game and on TS together I would not be able to make a definitive judgment here. Based on character and dedication I support you. As long as you put the play time in you'd be a great addition. Ultimately up to Crypt and Mag as far as determination on the time requirement.

+10 Opycs

Time is not always a factor in when we look at admin/subadmin applications. Players that prove themselves able above all else make a big impact on Loka. Having spoken with you about a variety of things on TS, you seem like a good fit for Sentry.

+10 Opycs from me as well.

I love the entire admin team
Well, we are all jaw-droppingly attractive

An immaculate application though, the "what is expected of this rank" section is textbook in terms of what I'm looking for +1
Also crypt already said yes, promotion hammer raised

Sentries don't have many requirements anyway, let's be real here. Skip has potential x100%.
