Your CKEY (Including any alts you have):
notashark
Your Discord Name (Including any alts you have):
Not a Shark#5024
How often are you online to help? (Timezone):
(CET) Usually its based on how busy i am with uni and life, But most days i have enough time for at least two or three rounds in the evening
With how much of my work is relatively mind numbing, its always possible to have an eye on the game while taking notes
What changes, if any, would you bring?:
As i intend to stay in the moderator niche for a good while, till i get my footing at least, the enthusiasm to shake things up is rather limited. While there are a few things that annoy me or that id like to see altered, they would fall in the coders area of expertise
How old are you?:
I am in my early Twenties
Why do you want to be a moderator?:
Simply, beestation is my favorite server. The regualrs are all (mostly) nice people and easy to get along with. Mechanics arent as neutred on other servers and Bee Shuttle jank will always have special place in my heart.
I want to give back to the community, this is best way i can see how.
How long have you been playing SS13?:
Goodā¦ never tracked the time. Maybe since early summer? a good six months is a safe bet. I started in CM but the reltive toxcicity drove me away, Later went to para where is fell inlove with medical, And now we are here
How long have you been playing BeeStation?:
About four months now
On a scale of 1-10, how skilled are you in SS13?:
huhā¦ for book smarts, and how to do my jobā¦ 7/10. For robustness and combat? yeah thats a 3 or 2 out of ten
On a scale of 1-10, how skilled are you as an administrator? (this can include past games):
2/10 I never worked with Bees code, or byond admin tools before. But the will to learn is there
Have you ever been an admin or moderator on another server? This is not limited to SS13:
Yes, I moderated on a popular but basic terraria server, even did temp-admin work from time to time.
Discord moderated on a few RP/PbP servers which are now mostly defuct sadly
Currenty a active moderator on a moderatly sized TTRPG server
Do you have any alternate accounts on SS13? If so, could you provide their CKEY?:
Not that i know of
Your strengths:
Fondness for helping people .
Due to personal experince i lay great value in getting everyones side of the story
Always ended up as class representive so liasing with people of authority or motivating others is something thats i have gotten some experince with
Your weaknesses:
As a type one diabetic my bood sugar tends to affect my mood greatly, resulting in increased crankyness
Self doubt and general evasiveness when dealing with critque and reprimands in written form
I tend to get distracted by IRL things a lot
I fell bad about making people upset, so i might go to easy on those who require admin sorting out
Is there anything that gets you really mad, real fast?:
The usual three: Rascsim, Sexsim, Homo(or other)phobia.
Refusal to listen, or to even atempt to cooperate or make an effort to resolve an issue.
Hypocrisy.
What do you think is the most important trait for a staff member to have?:
Patience, and a whole lot of it.
The ablilty to handle tickets without bias. (even if it concerns friends)
The ability to properly work in a team
What makes a staff team good?:
Team work makes dream work. Communication needs to be active and open. Unplesant topics will have to be adressed, hard work has to be done. Else it just builds up
Solid guidelines and rulings, nothing is worse than being told one thing is fine then getting yelled at by another admin for said thing.
Openess about issues and understanding that everyone makes mistakes, so its fine to show some leniancy
What is a staff teamās purpose?:
Ensure the server/rounds is functional while monitoring and removing problematic aspekts (sometimes even from their own ranks)
Ensuring the game stays fun and can remain a place for people to spend their time and unwind from their IRL duties
What kind of player are you?:
Solid CMO main. but due to policy this will become MD or Paramedic most likely. Due to playing on lowpop hours and lowpop server, i have a basic grasp of all departments, enought to keep a station going. Just not very efficently.
While command is a favored role, My characters tend to be quite hands on, Either helping with the station goal/operating Personally. Yet the best aspect of head roles will always be teaching. Taking your time in letting others learn the game, being nice and actually being able to Roleplay while doing so. and them repaing you in kind is one of the best aspects.
also great way to make new friends
How do you think you will change once you become a staff member?:
Ill defently play less and ghost more, and will have to stop playing as command so much.
Will proablly get adminbused a lot more
The clown slips the HoS and steals his gun, spacing it right after. What do you do?:
First, See if the clown is and antag. If yes, all clear (ic issue). If not? we see if the clown had previous interactions with the Hos (maybe the hos briged them for slipping?) If it followed proper escelation all clear.
Was it out of the blue? While Clowns are permitted some leway in pranks, they are still somenone who wants to keep their job. This warants a Bwoink for further investigation. Being charged for grand larceny is not keeping your job.
Id check the note history in any case and apply one for the incident. If bad history of such behaivior already exists im inclined for a small clown/mime ban so they can read the rules again.
For the gun? Possibly send a CC massage annocing that a high risk item has been located at X. That way the antags/sec/random tider have to hurry to get it first. Its a nice IC way to handle it instead of just teleporting it or subtle PMing the hos, even though those options will be preferable with low sec or high chaos rounds
A non-antagonist is sabotaging the Atmospherics loop and pumping plasma into the distro, along with dragging around a canister and releasing it into the atmosphere. Assuming that an admin is cleaning up the after-effects, how do you conduct the ahelp with him?:
Observe for a moment. a-Frezze or a-Jail them the moment they get anywhere near a public area with that can.
As the other admin is handling the clean up id focusing on asking what they where doing. What was the intent? Its clear that they dont seem new, so the hours and notes have to be investigated. Low hours but profficent in atmos anyway? Likely a evader/griefer
If they fail to give proper justification, if any, for their action, a perma ban is likely
Id consult with the admin handling the clean up first.
A chemist who is working alone accidentally mixes an explosive mixture inside of his chem dispenser, instantly killing himself and destroying the machine, along with exposing Chemistry to space. Nobody else was injured aside from him as a result of his actions. What do you do?:
As a CMO main, cry.
THis happens nearly everyother round and is certainly a IC issue. If the round is slow and there is nothing better to do, id observe, see what they are up to.
Newbie chemst? sublte PM to inform them about the wiki and mhelp funtions. Maybe bug the CMO to help them
Person mass producing meth? annyoing but still a IC issue.
Pot + Water as a non antag, with a pile of beakers and grenade casings nearby? That warants keeping an eye on them for potential grief/validhunting
Posting this before going to sleep. Im sorry if there are any spelling/grammar/formatting errors
