In-game name: JonnyFlameSteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:1:56448885In-game rank: AdminTimezone: ESTLength of LOA: 1 WeekReason: I've been busy recently with school, having exams, and studying over the last few days. I'm also going racing with my Dad, so I won't be back until next week since I won't have internet at the track. (I'll send a few photos on Discord!)

+ Age + Playtime (meets requirements) + No Active Warns + Referrals (All have confirmed) +/- Paragraphs (They meet requirements but I would have liked to see more characteristics about yourself and the qualities you possess) - Recent Ban for NITRP by Merk on 8/18/2024 Neutral You meet the requirements but I have taken your most recent ban into account in my decision, to elaborate further, I don't mind if you have prior bans on record, I mind that you did not expand on the subject and tell us how you improved from the last incident. The NITRP (No intention to roleplay) ban was issued just over a month ago by Merk. Upon asking him about the situation, he explained that you had a failbase at the time and got raided by other players. Upon dying to the raiders, you came back to your base, killed a cop bystander, died, and came back a second time. If I was informed correctly, the NITRP was for RDMx2, NLRx2, and ARDM. Again, I don't mind if you have been banned, please tell us how you improved and what you learned from the experience to ensure it doesn't happen again. For now, I will remain neutral as others have witnessed more community engagement than I have and seem to be fairly positive. Thanks for applying and good luck!

+ Age + Playtime + No Warns/Bans + Referrals (Confirmed) + Paragraphs + Positive Community Reputation + Read Staff Rules +1 There is nothing more to say other than great application! I was wondering when you would apply. I always see you on the server and teaching players about the game. You always make sits easy to follow and have the moment clipped. You know the rules and carry a good reputation. You also possess great characteristics and they would be valuable to have on our team. Thanks for applying and good luck! (P.S. DMoney is back?!)

+ Age - Active warn + Playtime + Referral (Confirmed) + Paragraphs (I see that you updated your app and it seems to be much better than the previous replies stated originally) + Read the rules +1 Great application, I would have liked to know how you gained a warn for FailRP and the circumstances involved. It's not the end of the world if it's not listed, but I would give you another point in my book if you were to explain the backstory behind it. I wasn't here for the original paragraphs but it seems that you edited the application and everything looks good. You possess good characteristics and it would be beneficial to have staff on during the mornings when most of us are at work or asleep. Thanks for the refreshing app and good luck!

+ Age - Wrong SteamID format (Please replace with proper SteamID format: STEAM_0:0:50662232) + Playtime (Meets requirements) - No Active Warns (the negative was for an admin note I left you for inciting RDM to new players on 9/6/24). + Previous Experience - Paragraphs (Does not meet requirements) + Read the rules -1 Overall I think you need more time on the server. You meet the playtime requirements but I feel that you need more time to earn a positive reputation in the community. I've seen you a few times and verbally warned you not to incite RDM to new players. I always see you talking to other players but more time needs to pass before I give you my approval. I would have liked to have learned more about you and your positive characteristics and previous experience but you only wrote one sentence. I won't get into specifics but the application is missing crucial content, for now, -1 but I hope to see you more in the future. Good luck! If you need assistance with your application in the future please reach out!

+/- Age (if approved, the required age is 15) + Playtime + No active warns + Prior Experience - 2 Prior Bans on Record (First Ban: 11/7/2020 by GrosCave for MassRDM, Second Ban: 3/24/2024 by Merk for MassRDM) - Paragraphs (Does not meet requirements, there are not 2 paragraphs in your application). + Read Staff Rules -1 I am not sure what to make of this application, there are many discrepancies that need attention. Most importantly is the bans not listed in this application and the use of AI-generated content for the section "Why should we choose you over other applicants?". I used 3 different sites and found that your sentences, while short, contain 100% AI-generated text. At the age of 14, you would possess exceptional writing skills if you truly wrote those sentences. I would like to know why you did not list your bans. Most of us are understanding and would let it pass if you listed them and gave us the reason behind the punishment and what steps you've taken to prevent them in the future. I cannot give this my approval without these concerns being addressed. If you need assistance in the future, please reach out and good luck!

+ Age + Playtime (Meets requirements) - 2 Active Warns + Referrals (If confirmed) + Experience - Paragraphs (Technically you have two paragraphs, but just barely. I would have liked to have known more about you as a person and what characteristics you possess). + Read the rules Neutral There are some concerns that I would like to be addressed in your application, one being the two warnings. You state that you were prior staff on another server and have played our server for a decent amount of time. Can you elaborate on how you received two warnings and what steps you're taking to ensure you don't make the same mistake again? I would look past them if you expanded on them and tell us how you have improved. Secondly, the paragraphs are technically two total (8 sentences with 4 per paragraph if you count the minimum) but the content is fairly weak. I would like to know more about you as a person and what qualities you possess as I'm sure you have a few you could list. For now, I will stay neutral in hopes that we can get an explanation. Good luck!

+ Playtime (Meets requirements) + Age (Meets requirements) + No active warns/previous bans + Community engagement (I have seen you on and you always seem to be interacting with the community in a positive manner) +/- Paragraphs (They are decent but I would have liked to have seen more characteristics listed or qualities you possess) + Referral (confirmed) +1 You have many positives going for you and I have seen you interacting with the community many times in a positive way. My only gripe is the lack of experience, but that comes with time. Thank you for applying and good luck!

Many people are making point that they won't like this change because it's not "Vanilla". I believe that having a seamless system would outweigh the non-vanilla aspect partly due to the fact it would be more natural to buy a property or claim a building for a base. Is this change necessary? No, absolutely not. Would it be nice to have? Yes! Personally, I think the server needs a bit of change to keep up with the growing community and a few quality-of-life changes could help solve this issue. Overall I give it my vote. +1

+ Age + Playtime (Meets requirements) + No Active Warns + Experience as Staff - Paragraphs (I only see one paragraph) +/- Mass RDM Ban (I see your reasonings, but you should have put in a request on the DarkRP Community Discord and requested help) + Read the Staff Rules +1 Although you could have added a few more characteristics about yourself under the paragraph section, everything else looks good. I won't fault you for the MassRDM ban since I can understand how someone being a minge can cause you to become upset. It's best to place a request for staff assistance in the Discord moving forward. I'm willing to give you a chance to show your skills mainly in part because of the experience you have. You have my +1 and I look forward to seeing what you can do. Good luck!

+ Age + No Active Warns + Playtime (Meets requirements) +/- Referalls (Neutral) ++ Experience (You seem to have been in an almost identical role on another server and know how the fundamentals work) + Paragraphs (This is probably the most detailed application I've read, thank you for putting in the time to write this!) + Read the Staff Rules +1 I think it's pretty obvious, you get my +1. Other than some community engagement (Will come with time), I haven't seen you much but your application is very well-written and I enjoyed your detailed paragraphs. I've seen the videos floating around on YouTube about that server and what has been going down. Welcome to Garnet Community and good luck!

+ Playtime + No active warns + Referral + Community Reputation +/- Paragraphs + Read the Rules +1 I've always seen good community interactions with you in-game and have never had any issues while I've seen you on the server. You tend to know the rules and when to report those who don't. I would have enjoyed reading some additional characteristics about yourself so I'm neutral on your paragraphs. Everything else is good and you meet the requirements.

Before I get into this, I suggest changing your SteamID on your application to your actual ID, I believe it's STEAM_0:0:181097659. + Playtime (Meets requirements) + Age + Referrals + Experience (Former staff for other servers/platforms) - Paragraphs (You only have 1 paragraph and I'm sure you could add more good characteristics to increase your paragraph to two paragraphs) + Read Staff Rules - Active Warn +1 Overall, good application, I would have liked to see a few more sentences to learn more about you. I always enjoy seeing prior experience and referrals from fellow Staff members. I'm not a fan of the active warn but I'm willing to give you a shot. Best of Luck!

+ Age + Playtime + No active warns / no bans + Paragraphs (Thank you for leaving out the filler. I enjoy it when people are honest and get straight to the point, you have excellent reasons and I believe you!) + Community Reputation (I always see you on and helping other players) + 1 for referrals (if confirmed, at the time of writing Omi is confirmed) (Not a + but THANK YOU for making the Application easy to read, the last few have written everything in bold font with no differences and it makes it harder to read.) +1 Overall, your application is well-written and straight to the point. Thank you for applying and best of luck!

+ Playtime + Age + Paragraphs (I love to see people take responsibility for their actions and I'm glad that you elaborated on every situation) + Timezone (We don't have many staff in your timezone and that would be beneficial) - Bans (I'm glad you elaborated on each ban but some of these are concerning, it has been a long time since the last ban but I won't hold it against you too much as you seem to have learned what went wrong in each situation) Neutral I could go either way. You have many positives and I enjoyed reading your paragraphs. I do not have much in-game interaction with you so I can't add that to the application (probably due to the difference in timezones). I'm more than willing to give you a chance if others agree! Thanks for your application and good luck!

+ Playtime (meets requirements) + Age (meets requirements) +/- Paragraphs (I feel neutral about them but I'm willing to give you a chance) +/- Interactions (I do not have enough experience with you to say anything about this so neutral) + Read the Rules Neutral I'm willing to give you a chance but I would personally like to have more interactions with you in-game. Please don't count this as a negative, if others say they've had a good experience I'm willing to take their word. Good luck!

++ Playtime (huge time spent) + Age + Paragraphs (Good reasons) + Read the Staff Rules +1 I've seen you around quite a lot and you tend to know when exactly to report someone and make it easy for us to deal with. Would be great to see you join us!

+ Playtime + Paragraphs (good reasonings and I can confirm based on the experiences I've had with you) + Read the Staff Rules +1 For the reasons above, I think you have a good chance! I only had good experience with you in-game!

+ Age + Playtime + Prior Staff + Experience + Paragraphs +1 Welcome back to the server, and I'm glad to see you re-applied! I hope you're feeling better and let's get him back in! Nothing more to say.

+1 It sounds like a general QoL update that should be added—if not a law then something equivalent. I'm open to new ideas as well.

+ Age + No warns + Playtime + Good paragraphs (I enjoy the reasonings and how you have improved as a person/what you learned from the experience) +/- Referrals (None, so neutral) + Read the Rules + Meets all requirements +1 I'm thrilled that you took accountability and corrected your behavior. Showing improvement in a short time is difficult. I really value that trait and you should keep up the good work. I say let's give him a chance! Good luck!

+ Referrals (If confirmed)+ Meets the requirements+ Experience (Love to see prior experience)- Warns (You have a few warns and although you meet the requirements for playtime, this is concerning to find multiple warns within 80 hours).- Paragraphs (You have a good start with your first paragraph but please make sure you complete two full paragraphs.)- Did not Read the rules (Yes, I stole most of this from @MunchieZ but I added to it.) Neutral You seem to meet all of the requirements. You state that you are a Chef and possess leadership skills/traits, I am sure that you have more to elaborate on to add for your second paragraph. If you read through the rules and update your post to include some of your missing things I would update this to a +1. You seem to have some great traits and you should tell us more about them. Neutral for now but good luck!

+Age+No Warns -Bans+Playtime+Pior Staff Experience -Paragraphs (Not a single period was used in your paragraph.)+Read the Staff Rules -1 Overall, I would like you to elaborate more about your prior experiences as staff, why/how you received your bans, and what you're doing to change this behavior. It's concerning, to say the least, to see you with 4 bans in the last 14 months as others stated previously. I would see it as a positive if you listed the reasons and how you've learned to grow from each situation. I would also highly suggest speaking with some of our Staff Team (including myself) before posting your application to get their input on it grammatically, and make edits before it gets posted. I would love to see you fix your application and elaborate further. -1 for now but good luck in the future!

+Age -Warn (NLR, c'mon man, you should know better) +Playtime +Referrals +Paragraphs (Very well written, I appreciate the effort you put into writing them. Your prior experience with being staff is a plus. +Read the Staff Rules I think this is a very well-written application. Having prior experience is a major bonus in my books. I don't know what to say about the warn, you have played DarkRP for some time and should have known better. Regardless, I will give you my +1 as long as you don't acquire any additional warns and have learned from the incident. Good luck!

+Age +Playtime -Paragraphs (You only have one paragraph) (Tip: You could easily separate some run-on sentences into multiple sentences or simplify what you're stating. You easily have enough words to create two paragraphs.) +/- Depending on if your referrals are confirmed -Didn't read the rules (I would encourage you to read every sentence). I'm going with a -1 since there are a few things that need to be addressed. You show promise, but I'm sure if you fix these mistakes it would greatly increase your odds.
