+ Age + Playtime - Active warns (No ban history) +/- Referrals +/- Some prior experience as Staff on other games? (I have no idea how Roblox works with this stuff) + Paragraphs + Read the Staff rules Neutral I made the decision to be neutral for a few reasons, you have quite a few recent active warns, and I think you need to mature a bit more. I say this because I have seen other players get under your skin. Part of being staff is dealing with players who will try anything they can to show a reaction. It's important to keep a straight face and ignore those comments. For those reasons, I chose neutral. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+ Age + Playtime + No active warns / Has prior bans but that was nearly a year ago from the last one. +/- Referrals + Paragraphs + Prior experience as former staff + Read the Staff Rules +1 Overall, I chose to give you +1. You haven't had any issues since last year, and you have prior experience being staff. Others seem to agree that you've matured past your ban history. I've seen you in-game quite a lot and you're always letting new players know the rules. Nothing more to be said. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+ Age + Playtime + No active warns/bans + Prior Staff experience on other games +/- Referrals + Paragraphs + Read the staff rules +1 I chose to give you +1 for a few reasons: you have prior experience with being staff on other games, you don't have any warns during your first start on the server, which many players often get, and your paragraphs seem genuine. Overall good app. Thanks for applying and good luck!

ACCEPTED Thank you for your appeal. After a careful review by our Operator Division, we have decided to remove/lift your ban. The decision to remove your ban and accept your appeal is due, but not limited to, the following: It's clear that Anthorith made a mistake and banned the wrong person. I have updated the ban so that you can rejoin. Anthorith will be spoken to regarding the situation, apologies for the inconvenience. Thank you for your appeal and we hope to see you in game!

Thank you! Congrats to everyone on a great month! Together, we worked hard and it shows. Everyone deserves a pat on the back and here's to another great month!

It's been great gaming with you. I really appreciate having you as a role model and you will not be forgotten. I sincerely thank you for being the backbone of Operators and trying to recruit me way back when I was an L. Mod. Just how things happened back then, things are happening now and it was destiny that I went through the Gamemaster path to end up where I am today. Please, re-apply if you ever feel up to it again. Outside any games or Discord servers, feel free to hit me up any time!

Aww man, we'll miss you! Good luck in the Army! Go kick some ass with @Danny_The_Dog

+ Age + Playtime + No active warns / No prior bans +/- Referral (1 confirmed, waiting on 1 more) +/- No prior experience as Staff + Paragraphs + Read the Staff rules + Positive Interactions +1 I gave you +1 for a few reasons, I have seen you on quite a bit recently and I've only had positive interactions with you. I have seen you help out other players as you stated above. I enjoyed your paragraphs because they seem genuine and I can agree with what you're doing. You seem like a reasonable person and I think you deserve a chance! Thanks for applying and good luck!

I would highly recommend filling out everything listed in the required format, including hours. (P.S. I'm pretty sure This is your SteamID: STEAM_0:1:67733921) Edit: To anyone reading this Staff Application; He has purchased VIP Moderator and I assume this application will be moved into accepted once his onboarding begins. Please refrain from replying in the meantime or otherwise stated.

Aw man, we'll miss you. It's been great having you on the team, farewell and good luck in your next ventures!

+ Age (Meets requirements) + Playtime - Active Warns (1x on 1/5/2025 by Nutter for RDA and 1x on 1/16/2025 by Zbt for RDM) +/- No prior Staff Experience + Referral (Confirmed) + Paragraphs + Read the Staff Rules +1 I chose to give you +1 for a number of reasons, you meet the requirements, you have a prior ban but haven't been banned since 2022 and there hasn't been any since then. Others seem to have good experiences with you and validate your claims in your paragraphs. One thing about your paragraphs that more people need to do is simply explain their reasonings why they believe something or why they do what they do. You explained your reasonings in this manner and I can agree. Overall I'd like to see what you can do. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+1 Just makes sense, it was probably intended but forgotten.

+ Age + Playtime +/- No active warns (Prior ban for MassRDM, but it was on 7/16/2024 which was over 6 months ago, and it's the only one) +/- Referrals (None, so neutral) + Prior Staff Experience on other servers + Paragraphs + Read the Staff Rules +1 I don't have much to add, you have a good amount of experience being staff on other game servers which is my main point in giving you +1. Your paragraphs are good and having someone with your timezone would be great during the hours when not many staff are online. I think others are on the fence about the ban for MassRDM, but it happened over 6 months ago, and there aren't any other bans on record so I'm willing to look past it. Overall I give you my vote. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+ Age (Meets requirements) + Playtime (Meets requirements) +/- No warns or recent bans (verbal warns though, so I'm keeping this one neutral) + Referrals (Confirmed) +/- No prior experience as Staff (neutral) + Paragraphs + Read the Staff Rules +1 I like your paragraphs, they seem genuine and you seem to have good intentions. Those who referred you speak highly of you. You also show promise being that you took advice to heart and made necessary changes to your Staff Application as others suggested and it has tremendously helped. The only caveat I have with this application is the current playtime vs. the time you claim to attribute once you become staff, what I mean is that you say you can contribute 50-60 hours a week but yet you've played for years and only have 76 hours currently. No one needs to contribute quite that much time per week as that's a bit overkill but I can't believe those claims with your current playtime (you would have hundreds of hours if that was the case). Even still, I'm willing to give you a +1. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+ Age +/- 1 Active warn from me (Diss in OOC) + Playtime ++ Prior experience as Staff + Paragraphs + Time to contribute + Community Engagement + Read the Staff Rules +1 I chose to give you +1 for a number of reasons. Reason one is that you have been playing for an extremely long time and have more experience than most people on the Staff team. I have no doubt that you've seen it all seeing as you were a Director and Manager at one point. I have also seen you on quite a lot and helping other players by giving tips. You also keep the server population high at times after a crash (which we all greatly appreciate). The only neutral aspect of this was the warn which I issued a few days ago for diss in ooc but that's understandable and I can easily look past it. Others also say great thins about you and I'm inclined to believe them. Thanks for applying and good luck!

- Age (We have no idea if you meet requirements) - 3 active/recent warns (https://imgur.com/a/ia9wB4x)+(https://imgur.com/a/pXMORjb), and you have a recent prior ban for FailRP+LTAP (https://imgur.com/a/yY0DJmA) + Playtime (Meets Requirements) - No Mic + Prior staff experience on other servers +/- Paragraphs + Time to contribute + Read the Staff Rules -1 I have chosen to give you -1 for a number of reasons. The first reason moving down the application is Age, like other state, if we don't know how old you are then how can we expect to take the application seriously, we have no idea if you meet the requirements. We aren't asking for your birthday, or where you live, or anything that might be considered "private information". The second part is the no mic, if you can't communicate effectively, it will greatly hinder you. It is required during the onboarding that you respond quickly and effectively via voice chat. The third part is for your recent ban on 1/6/2025 for FailRP+LTAP, at the time you posted this application it had barely been a week since you received that ban. Along with the third part is your active warns, you have received three warns barely under 2 weeks into 2025 by 3 different staff members. (screenshots included above). I don't have much to say about the paragraphs as they were ok, they were lacking some content that could have been elaborated on further. The time to contribute is nice, however it isn't enough to look past your recent activity on the server. Overall, I cannot give you a positive rating due to these reasons. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+ Age (Meets requirements) + No active warns (has prior bans but they aren't recent: https://imgur.com/a/VUgPh4M) + Playtime (Please fix your SteamID, it is STEAM_0:1:483705189) - Referrals (How do you get a referral but forget their name?) - Paragraphs - Did not Read the Staff Rules -1 I gave you -1 for a few reasons, you forgot to include your SteamID which is arguably the most important part. It allows players to verify that the information in your application is correct by referencing it with the Server and the Bans Database. @Baiter, @MunchieZ@Haze4269@KoSS_Jesus all informed you about it, and you still haven't fixed it. You said that you had a referral but you couldn't even try to find out who it was. In your paragraphs you say What have you changed? What did you do in the past? We don't know you. How do you want to make Garnet a better place? All of these things could have been used to fill in the lack of paragraphs. You also write about solving people's problems, What problems are you trying to solve? How would you solve them? As for the bans, the last ban was almost a year ago and most of them are for MassRDM (screenshot included above), so it's not as bad as others but still relevant. Overall it seems that you did not put much effort behind your application. It seems that others think the same. I would attempt to fix your paragraphs and read the staff rules as well. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+ Age (meets requirements) +/- Active Warn (No prior bans) + Playtime + Paragraphs + Referral (I referred you too but you forgot to mention me) + Read the Staff Rules + Community Engagement +1 I have seen you around quite a lot, you're always helping other players figure out how to build or play on the server. Reports are always super easy with you as well, they're always clear and you know the rules. I don't have much more to say, glad to see you apply. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+ Age +/- No Active Warns (Multiple prior bans https://imgur.com/a/X9U0rSM) + Playtime (meets requirements) +/- No prior experience -- Paragraphs (Clearly AI-Generated, I could tell by reading them, but here are screenshots of AI detectors for others to see: https://imgur.com/a/QbwZD5Z and https://imgur.com/a/6ei4OST) + Read the Staff Rules -1 There are many factors that lead me to make this decision. First, The playtime paired with your prior history on the server; clearly you only played for the minimum amount of time required to apply and you've had a forum account since 2021 with only one post - being this one. With the number of prior bans and how recent they were, it seems you haven't spent much time in the community to make the improvements you claim to (at least in my opinion). The lack of experience doesn't really matter to me but I can't take anything you say seriously when your paragraphs are clearly AI-generated. Anyone can see they weren't typed by a real person but for good measure, I used a few different sites to show they were over 70% AI-generated. The time you said you could contribute furthers my point about how little time you have spent on the server. Most players wouldn't say they could contribute 12+ hours if they didn't already have a large amount of time played. Alongside these reasons is this clip from @MunchieZ which seems to coincide with my consensus. I cannot give you my +1 because of these reasons, it seems that you are a troll and clearly do not believe anything that the AI wrote for you. Thank you for applying and good luck. Edit: I had the same link posted twice. Fixed now

+1 It doesn't make sense to have an NLR zones in adminland, there is no RP happening there. I 100% agree with you on this one and it would lead to more events being held in adminland now that we have portals back.

Perfectly reasonable but how long would you hold prior bans over someone? The last ban occurred in 2023 which was more than a year ago. I am not disputing your -1, but I'd like to hear your opinion on the matter.

Thanks for the insight @Texas! It's always nice to see the other side of the GG community. Your input is greatly appreciated.

+ Age - Active Warn on 1/7/2025 for FailRP by LinkInBio + Playtime (Meets requirements) + Some prior experience as staff on other games +/- Referral from Haze, but no actual referral from Heart - Paragraphs + Read the Staff Rules (Please add the correct SteamID to your application, I believe this is yours: STEAM_0:0:653832329) Neutral I don't have any interactions to speak of but that could also be on my part being that I get on the server at a different time. I think you should add more paragraphs to your application being that there's only 1 and a half at most and it requires 2 in addition to some details. Age is a decent reason and I agree that wisdom comes with age but why do you think we should consider you over other applicants? Currently, I position myself as neutral but if others have any experiences to speak of or community engagement I'd be willing to agree with their reply. I always like seeing prior experiences so that's a positive, overall I stand in the middle. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+ Age + No active warns or prior bans + Playtime ++ Past experiences as Staff + Paragraphs (I would add another +, but I already feel like my support is plenty) + Read the Staff Rules (Doesn't count but, + for hobbies and line of work, thank you for being a first responder and saving lives.) +1 I don't have much to say, you have my full support and a massive +1 to you. You seem to have a great deal of experience with being Staff on Gmod servers and I have no doubt that you will know how to handle yourself if you join the team. Awesome application and I can tell you put a lot of effort into it. Thanks for saving lives and I hope to see you around. Thanks for applying and good luck! Edit: It is late at night and I made some mistakes, mostly just format changes to my reply.

+ Age (Meets requirements) + No active warns or prior bans + Playtime (meets requirements) -- Paragraphs +/- Time to contribute???(5 hours what? a day? a week? a month?) - Did not read the Staff Rules -1 I think you need to re-write this application and thoroughly read the format and rules. I have been waiting a few days to see if you could fix it, but it seems you did not make all the necessary changes. I gave two -'s for the paragraphs because of the lack of any paragraphs and this response: What do you think you would be good at? What good things would you do? I would break these down into What you would do, How you would accomplish it, Who in the community would it benefit, and When have you done other actions that have helped the server or fall under similar categories? All of these are great points that would make me believe that you would "do a lot of good things". I would learn what you can and re-apply. The "Time to contribute" follows the same path, it's not specific, and "5 hours" doesn't mean anything if you don't list a time unit next to it. Please take all of this as constructive criticism, thanks for applying and good luck!
