Good at listening and taking the view points of others in making my decisions. Experienced in working within teams. Used to engaging with many types of people across the internet through the various communities I’ve been a part of.

Got plenty of patience and a cool head and extensive knowledge on Marine Law. Not above pausing to take into account information I am not aware of.

Impartiality and being able to view their decisions and impacts from multiple sides.

Great Player, and great person.
Great ML knowledge and good at RPing.
The best quality i saw in Tysonx1, is his how easy is to talk to him, both when discussing something and while playing with him. I saw the man playing MP a lot of time and i never saw him being Unjust to others.
I think he would be a great Moderator. Good Luck!

+1 Prescott is a pretty good MP who doesn’t bring a bad rap to the Department. I’m sure they will be able to uphold server rules as a mod, given his excellent demeanor as an MP.

I don’t know how I missed this application, Although I have quit CM I must say I think he would be a great staff member. I have interacted numerous times with Prescott in game and on the discord and have had zero bad interactions nor have I seen him act in bad faith. They have a good understanding of Marine Law which is always a plus. They prioritize roleplay interactions rather than sweat at the game which is something I look for in staff members.

Ditto to the above that i dont know how i missed this, as this is an easy app for me to support. We may not interact in a highly invested and strong way but we work well as a team when we have the luck to be in the same department; and you’re nothing but pleasant IC, OOC, all around. I’ve seen you come out of some wild rounds where people fling a lot of stuff at CIC or MPs, and where you’re the CIC or MP involved, you stay impeccably calm; where it’s others who were CIC or MPs, you give sincere, respectful, but non-targeted feedback about what could’ve gone better. i think you’d have a good capacity for dealing with players who are upset over things with appropriate patience and coolness (no one likes ahelping and no one likes being ahelped), while also giving nudges to the right direction. I’ve never seen you do anything objectionable in-game.

Easy +1, good player, good at RP, nice etc etc… Also knows their stuff really well, especially when it comes to ML. I see no reason why they shouldn’t be on the staff team.

Tysonix1 has been around for about as long as I can remember, and I have never had a negative interaction with him. He’s a very level headed guy and could definitely be trusted as a moderator within our community! Good luck man! +1

Like everyone before me has said, the Smokeman is great. He’s a joy to be around and work with. I think he’d be a valuable asset for our community. We’d be remiss if we didn’t put someone with the game knowledge, social skills, and desire to help the community into a position to do just that.

Seen and interacted with Jason ‘Smoker’ Prescott plenty of times on the server. Never seen them grief or break rules in anyway and is an all around chill person to interact with. They know how to roleplay perfectly fine and appear to have a strong understanding of both IC and OOC rules as I’ve seen them play lots of Military Police and Command roles and believe they are a plat medal CMP. All in all they appear to be a solid community member who cares about the state of the server. +1

Hey @Tysonix. I know you to be a good dude and fellow history enjoyer but in an effort to be consistent and fair to mod applicants I will have to ask the question. This is no judgement of your character.

Have you ever been a moderator or greater on any server and removed for misconduct? If so, when did this occur and why did you not disclose it on your application?

I want to reiterate this is not a question solely directed at you. I have asked similar questions in the past but now decided to formalize it.

I was an admin of the BestRP server from 10 years back. Once ownership and server name changed I ended up taking the position of Head Admin followed by Head of Staff. I have never been removed for misconduct. Server population dwindled due to endless drama/toxicity till I spoke to the host about pulling the plug.

And yeah I get it, I’ve seen you ask this question of others.

Thanks man. Again, I hate having to ask the question. Personally, I think it should be a question on the application and for the life of me I have no idea why it is not.

Hello Tysonix1,

I apologize for the extreme delay on your application. You may not know it, but I actually staffed with you on both BestRP and it’s successor, Unbound Travels. Beyond that, you’ve got an excellent history, a host of community/staff support, and I see no reason why you wouldn’t be an excellent addition to the team. This application is approved.
