Final Details:

Why would you like to join the CM-SS13 staff team?

Since my last application, I’ve realised that my role as a staff member would be maintaining the game flow and addressing issues with misbehaving players. Given my history, I can perform effectively in that capacity, as I feel capable of handling player concerns.
As I said in my previous application, I truly appreciate how the current staff enforce the rules based more on spirit than blindly enforcing them. I see moderator as an opportunity to deepen my understanding of the game and involve myself in the community. Additionally, it would allow me a chance to engage more in the developmental aspects of the game, as it would provide me with more insight into the administrative tools required for the game.
Additionally, the opportunity to run events would be incredible; simply assisting as a moderator would be something I’d find interesting.
That said, my answer to the question would be an opportunity to enhance the player experience or handle misbehaving players.

What makes you a great addition to Staff? (Experienced Tabletop DM, Aliens Lore Buff, Super Organized, etc.?)

The greatest strength I could bring to the table is a cool head. As I had said, I can step away from a difficult situation and return to it later with a clearer perspective. If I cannot, I will delegate the responsibility to someone else until I am ready to reassess the situation. This has taught me one of the greatest truths: sometimes it’s better to ask someone else and learn.

In your opinion, what is the most important quality of a CM-SS13 staff member?

I will state my previous answer as I still believe it to be true.
From my observations, one important skill is the ability to approach multiple situations with a clear mind. Sometimes, there simply aren’t enough staff available, and it’s important to be able to shift focus rather than carry over disappointment from one person to the next, especially if the previous interaction involved a difficult individual.

Anything else you want to add?

As I finally finished school, I feeel way more capable of doing this kind of volunteer work.

I would also like to say that I honestly appreciate the comments that I was previously given.

Consistently helpful on the dev side of the game.

I like star, nice community member. Can’t speak for like moderation experience or anything but I think star is a very solid candidate for mod. So this’ll be a +1 from me.
