[MODERATOR] SaintEthan's Applicatory Redux.
Post: #1
Hiya. A while ago, do to a very unfortunate series of events, I ended up getting myself demoted, much against the cries of many of my non-staff companions. However, it certainly wasn't permanant--and so, I am writing yet another Moderator application to try and regain my status as a staffmember. Let's begin.

1. Why do you want to be a Moderator?
Ah, yes. I remember answering this question--but now it seems that the list of these desires has increased for me. As a moderator, not only am I respected, but I get to do the thing I love best: helping players have an amazing time on our server. Sure, I may not have WorldEdit, but people know that I can be trusted when I offer to help them out. Nothing about being a moderator makes things easier--but it allows me to do more.

2.What do you think it takes to be a good Moderator?
A pair of sunglasses and the ability to "DEAL WITH IT." On our server, we have staffmembers with very unique personalities. And people may not always agree with them. So, as a moderator, I realize and respect this; not everyone shares my opinion on bronies, for example. This time around, I will try my hardest to not express my rage like I did last time.

3. Have you played at least 80 hours?
Yeah. I certainly am not on the top of the list--though I am finally on the front page--but I have 534 hours of playtime. And, considering my "about an hour a day" disposition, this is quite an acheivement for me. I'm pretty proud of it, if I must say so myself.

4. Tell us a little bit about yourself, your gameplay and what you think of the server.
Darkspin is, quite frankly, the best server I have ever played on. It almost never crashes, and the amount of cash D4rk puts into running it is just... amazing. 120+ dollars a month. Woah. It has been my pleasure to join in on yer wild schenannigans (did I spell that right? Or do the little men running around in my computer not understand it?), and I must admit that many of my skills that I have today would not exist if it weren't for you guys. As for myself? I love 3D modeling and computer animation. I am currently working on a five-part manga in my spare time. My real name is Ethan Zachary Armbrust. I'm bisexual, and I like to refer to myself as a "radical" atheist. Anything by Douglas Adams makes me jizz my pants. What else is there to know?

5. Anything we should know about?
Nothing that you guys don't already know.

6. Have 3 admins confirmed they trust you?
Mhmm. Here's their pictures:

7. If you are confirmed, do you swear not to use your powers for stupid/irresponsible/revenge purposes?
I swear, yet again.

8. Do you agree to the fact that if you are inactive for a month, your Moderator rank will be revoked?
This is a lie. I know from experiance. But yes, I agree. I have never been inactive for a month, nor do I plan to.

Bit too much information for the public on 4 there. Didn't know you were a radical atheist.

Now here's the dilemma i'm facing here.
I kinda like you, hence why i accepted your application in the first place.
But i still have no idea what that jimmy rustling fest was all about, as i was on exams. All i know is you reacted very badly to a situation.
Though you do state in your post you will try your best not to express your rage on bronies.
And you do state you have a pair of sunglasses at the ready to DEAL WITH IT.

Imma just gonna wait and see the input of other members before making my verdict.

Now have a picture that expresses my feel.

When that whole mess came down, I (guess I) was involved in it. Though it seemed Scy jumped at the change to humiliate Saint. Though I had thought Saint acted terribly to Bronies, it then occurred to me that I was the one making such a big mess over him hating on them. Hell, I even left a pony in his plot just to piss him off. So after I made that "Temp Demotion" thing on the forums, I then felt really bad. So, of course, even though that picture doesn't accurately represent me, I'd say yes to him regaining his Moderator status.

I don't even know why I hate the show, I just -do not- enjoy watching it... I grew up on [i]Hey Arnold![/i}and [i]Foster's Home[/i], not this crap...

You see. That's why i believe you cause jimmy rustling. Because you take the opportunity to slander something that people are very fanatic about when you don't need to. You could have just as easily said "Show" instead of crap.

I'm not really wanting to say yes until i know you can DEAL WITH IT when it comes to bronies. Since there will be many of them on the server (as it's such a large fandom now), and i don't want you causing jimmy rustling amongst them.

Well, I do have to agree with you there, Black. Also, are you a dragon or a gorilla? You seem to know an awful lot about jimmy rustling...[hr]
Also, when I refer to myself as a "radical" atheist, it's just to show that I really mean it. I hate when people are like, "Well, there is no god, but perhaps he does exist, in a slight way, erm, he exists... but maybe he doesn't...?"

What you described is what I am. It's called being agnostic.

You guys have to also take into account what has happened apart from that incident (for which I was not present).

Saint. I do not believe you to be moderator material. Time and time again you've been careless about your words and you don't really seem to take into account nothing but your own friendships. That is up to admins though, just putting in my couple words.

Now to address other mods and admins...

You are all far too lenient on people because of friendship. You cannot say 'I like you I say yes'. you need to be critical of past actions if the community is to stay parasite free.

Give it another month or so saint, you haven't really made a good impression with just this thread, not even taking into account your past.
