I graduated college in 2014, and mostly thought the same thing to your points. I'm 32 now, I've been married for 7 years. Life doesn't really "get" in the way of anything, that just is life. I've played on gaming communities for probably 20 years now starting on CS 1.6, and still kick it in Gmod, or still occasionally CSS. Gaming has just been a past time for me when I've got nothing else going on, it's my way to relax after work. The whole reason I started to play Gmod more frequently in the last 2 years I've been on GG is because it's a gaming forum and community. I will say, that many of you don't know how good you have it to have a dedicated gaming community to play on. These communities were everywhere in the 00's and started to die off more in the mid 2010's, and are more rare it seems in the 2020s. For those who play the servers, and frequent the forums, you are all a part of a gaming tradition that is slowly being lost due to the change of gaming as a whole, and time itself. There's that line from The Office where Andy says "I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days, before you've actually left them". And as probably fucking cringe it is for me to say that, I certainly think of the good old days playing on the PF and HG servers in CSS in the early 2010s that I've dumped thousands of hours into. There is going to come a day this website, and the servers shut down. So soak in the time that you can play on these communities while you can.

neutral i don’t doubt your staffing abilities, but from what i seen on the forums when people are harassing or toxic to you leaves me concerned. Your getting powers and abilities and im simply concerned if someone pushes you too far that your gonna use them in a abusive way. i would like to know how you intend on controlling yourself, steps you will/have taken to not let people push you that far.

Alright so I was waiting to give my response until he fixed the issues in his app that other commenters said earlier up. With that. I have not had any bad interactions with you and you seem to be really active in the game and your intentions are pure. I think that with your past experience and your ability to be on at earlier times would benefit this team greatly. While you have been banned before it was in the past so I think we can keep it there, move on, and learn from our mistakes and to not do them again. Give this guy a chance you have my +1

You meet all the requirements and have previous experience as staff on Garnet which is great. Also I've see you on a lot and I've had good interactions with you. +1

I made some additions to my application. Thanks for the constructive criticism! Always appreciated from a friend like yourself.

+1 Always cool to see another player I remember during my time as staff re-apply. Did not have many interactions with you but I remembered you as a really chill guy who cared about the server. Can also relate to your circumstances about unfortunately becoming inactive each time as staff and I don't ever think that's a reason to hold someone back. Hope it goes well man!

Hi, everyone! I'm not sure if you've seen my name snooping around forums recently, but, if you don't know who I am, my name is Jared! I have been a part of the GarnetGaming community since August of 2016, right before I started my freshman year of high school! Quick synopsis of my time on GG: - I started playing my first stint of MRP near the fall of 2016, ended around the middle of 2017(?) It's honestly been so long I can't quite remember the exact timeframe. I was an active player mainly on the Marines during the days of CSCDesert with people such as Davidson, senorisgrig, Zach Jones, yokedPREDATOR, North, and many more that may pop into your heads. I first messed around playing SAS and had a blast with our dogshit base that Garnet would faint in disgust nowadays. (If you lot from SAS are still around somehow, hello!) - Afterwards I then came back for a short stint as an Army officer, had some fun with that, and was a part of MRP staff for a little while - I then moved over to DRP and eventually became staff - My last and most recent MRP run was in 2021 during the pandemic, became a part of AwesomeAidan's Green Beret, still love that group, lots of homies Why am I telling you guys this? Well...I'm graduating college in less than a month from now. I can't believe that I am still here on these forums after almost 8 years. Eight years of my life have gone by, and, in a weird way, this community reminds me of the journey I went through on a personal level in order to get to this point. Since the days of August 2016, I have graduated high school, got a girlfriend of over two years, lost my virginity, and now I am very close to earning my bachelor's degree in cybersecurity! I am truly a Garnet Gamer! Even though I may not know you, I just wanted to quickly say thank you. Thank you for everyone in this community who has impacted my life. You all have helped mold me into the man I am today...ready to conquer the world. I may not have become a general in MRP like I wanted to all those years ago, or a Super Admin, or a prominent figure in this community, but I have become a man ready to succeed...in REAL LIFE of course! My most prominent memories of growing up have been from playing with this community of leeches, cunts, and dickwads, and I wouldn't want it any other way. I really wish I could've played GMod with you guys consistently for 8 years, but the sad truth is that our personal lives are more important than a video game. As corny as it is to say, it genuinely hurts me that life got in the way. However, I think it is for the greater good. Could I come back and play? I doubt it. I have a woman to worry about now. I have myself to worry about now. Is roleplaying as an Army private who is being instructed by a 14 year old kid from California to go and capture an objective from the Taliban even important in my life anymore? Probably not. I am 22 years old. I am an "old" man for GG standards at this rate. Current members of GG, please enjoy these moments. You are at the peak of your lives, you just don't know it yet. Yes...you're playing a modded version of Half-Life 2 that got released as a fully-fledged standalone game in 2006, where you roleplay as a Star Wars character, or a military man, or some other stupid shit. But you don't need to think of it like that. DON'T think of it like that. Think of how many friendships you've made in this commmunity, and how much fun you've had. Once you start paying bills on your own, you'll regret not living in the moment. Just thought I'd speak my peace. Thank you all for making my life a little less shitty. Jared

You’re a cool dude man. Would be great to see you on the staff team again, however I do want to point out a few things in your app that I think you need to work on, starting out with the first question “Why should we choose you over other applicants?” In your 2 paragraphs I would’ve liked to see you answer this question. You could definitely keep all of the things you said about how your enjoyment and experiences on the server after getting unbanned wanted to make you apply and help out again I think that’s dope, just try to go more in depth about what you can offer to the staff team and answering the question of WHY they should choose you. (Bullet points help a lot here) the other thing I wanted to point out was your bans, I’m no stranger to bans either but I think on a staff app if you have bans, you should try to elaborate on how you’ve grown to learn from your past bans. anyway that’s just my advice to ya, if ya give a fuck haha I don’t usually respond to things on forums but I thought I could give a few tips on applications maybe other people will check it out too. good luck man

You have good interaction and playtime with the community but I think you could write a bit more about yourself to help fill in the second paragraph that you're missing. In addition to this, please make sure to read the Staff Rules thoroughly as you have missed something. I think you would make for a good applicant if you fixed these minor issues. Neutral

ok

You seem to have a significant amount of playtime, experience, and lots of interaction with our community. You are honest and admit to your mistakes as written above and your sentences are strong. +1

-1 I only really liked the racing one, i somewhat liked the auction house one, but i think you're events are too open ended, we are clones, yet most of this has nothing to do with being a clone. I do like that they are creative and different, but maybe rephrasing some of the events, like instead of the clones rping as wealthy buyers in an auction, instead the CIS is crashing a hutts auction and the clones are sent there to retrieve and recover the missing auctioned off items. If you can rephrase these to make them have them fit into clone life rp, instead of having them completely adopt a new rp persona, I would like these event a lot more and would give you my support.

In-game name: StS MO Jaren Discord username: areidysaAge: 21SteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:1:127357723Active Warns: NoneTimezone: CSTCurrent Playtime: | StS MO Jaren has played for 926:02:50.Do you have access to Discord and a microphone?: Yes. Are you a member of the Garnet Gaming DarkRP Discord?: Yes.Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?: Yes. (Via medal.tv)Referral(s): StS ErrolPast experiences as staff: I got to senior moderator in 2021 and fell down with activity due to work problems, and in 2022 I got up to senior mod again. Both times I was gamemaster.Why should we choose you over other applicants?: As a young adult, I myself hold a higher mental acuity and maturity and can handle situations properly. As a longstanding player of the community, I have much time on my belt and have spent much time readjusting myself to the community after my much hated exiled from Garnet. With Garnet's DarkRP being the only DarkRP or really even Garry's mod server I ever play on, I hold this server very dear. There's something special about the community that has grown and thrived here for years upon end that makes me enticed to rejoice once more in the community. Over the time I have spent here, I have made several friends and companions and have come to re-immerse myself in the joy that is Garnet Gaming DarkRP. With that, I find a renewed interest in serving the community justice and protecting it from bad actors. With that, my resolve is grand and I wish to use that to the best of my ability. In returning, I hope to eventually forget the sour ending of my leave in 2022, and with a hearty attitude come straightforward and be the best staff I could ever be. Also, over the time I've been here I've learned from my mistakes. I've learned not to make fun of other people and not to let petty squabbles get the best of your judgement. I've also learned to keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. What I mean by that is that even if you have somebody that you don't like or they don't like you, you should always try to stay on close terms with them and at least try to make the best out of a bad situation. As for readdressing my key qualities of being a staff member, I would be able to be on early in the morning for US timezones and handle early morning mingery. Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details: Two of my bans were mistake bans and two really old bans were toxicity and unintentional mass rdm. I was also banned permanently by proggy in 2022 for sending his face to him and saying he looked like a discord moderator over an incident that caused me to resign from staff being upset with proggy. I can elaborate more, but I successfully appealed my ban on March 21st, 2024.Have you made any previous applications, If so when?: First Application: Second Applications: How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: At a minimum, 3 hours a day. At maximum, around 12-14.If you have any, what hobbies or activities are you involved in outside of Garry's Mod?: Yes, I ride my bike often and I do like to play basketball at my local YMCA.Did you read the staff rules?: StS MO Jaren
