Do you own a quality microphon/
Yes.
Do you have Discord, Telegram, and Teamspeak?:
Yes.
Do you have any previous staff experiences?:
I helped a server called, "CloutOG" This was a practice server run by the youtuber, 'CloutOG' who has 2.5k subscribers. I was a manager on that server, and my responsibility was to manage the staff team, do forum posts, guides etc. Most of it consisted of managing and organizing, but it didn't get quite far due to money issues.
Yes, I've staffed as manager, but I’ve also staffed in other positions, such as mod, and helper. These jobs were your routine staff positions, and expectations were to operate in the hope of helping players. We were required to screenshare ( I have been SS verified, but it was on another server) and lay down the rules. I’d also sit in support room while doing this so I could make use of my time more productively, instead of wasting away not helping. These experiences have taught me how to handle tough situations, improvise in situations which was not stated in the staff guide, deal with players that I may not be the friendliest, and just give me general knowledge on the staffing position.
"WinterPVP" was one of those servers I staffed on as a moderator. It was an australian server, so my timezone didn't really fit in but on the weekends it was my time to shine. That was my first time being SS-Verified, and I was expected to ban cheaters, lay down the rules, and help players in support rooms.
In addition to staffing on WinterPVP, I also staffed on a server called "Patrone" Mainly people know it as "Verzide's Server" but it was truly named Patrone. It shutdown due to the whole cheating incident regarding Verzide, and the owner decided to just leave it and start a new server. I learned a lot at Patrone, it was one of the first MAJOR servers I worked it where it clocked in 200-400 players during beta. I learned how to help, set up new servers, find bugs, and how to manage responsibilities on a big scale.

I've also staffed on a server called "HcAura" which was essentially a HCF server. I decided to resign from it because the previous owner, Jay, just gave up on the project and handed it to someone which did not expect ownership, and I could tell it wasn't going far. I do not know the current situation of HcAura, but I believe it's dead by now.
Why do you want to become staff?
The first reason is I know what it’s like to be a player trying to report/get help in a teamspeak that is flooded with players. You could be waiting there for half an hour trying to get help with something. I can stop that in multiple ways. Let's say there is only 2 staff in the support room, and about 100 players online. There would be a greater player then staff ratio so it would be a lot harder for staff to help people when there's a great quantity of them waiting for support. But I’m just another staff member, what can I do. Well as I mentioned before, I know how to handle these situations. I quickly move players and help them as fast and efficiently as possible. I handle the requests for help swiftly, and inform the player what they can do to prevent this in the future if this is something they can control. Helping players is my main priority if I were to be a staff member.Adderral

Why do you want to become staff?
Another reason I wish to be staff is that I’ve noticed the anticheat doesn't do its job. The Anti-Cheat doesn't pick up most cheaters. What I’d do to help rid cheaters from this server is simple, watch. Lots of people spam hacker in the chat, and I notice these things, and I check them out, because even though some of the times they’re false, sometimes they can be true. This makes it easier for me to locate who is cheating and make a quick ban. I usually fly around the map using the fly command while in staff mode. I do this as a player as well, These can be used whilst staffing to view the fighting, while also taking a look for rule breakers. All the things that can help me catch cheaters, just flying around the map (especially in teams) is important aswell. If you see someone block glitching, or breaking the rules it's good to know what rule they're breaking, how to show proof of them breaking the rule, and being self-sufficient on your own. Catching rule breakers is why I want to be staff.
The second reason I wish to be staff member on Sage is so that players can have an enjoyable time on the server, and not be worried about having to run into rule breakers to ruin their day. A main goal I have if I am accepted, is that everyone is treated fairly, unbiased, and is having fun.
I’ve also played SagePVP for a long enough time to know what to do, and what not to do. Knowing the rules and being able to describe to someone what a rule is, how you break it and how you prevent yourself from breaking it is a key component in being a staff member. I like to be friendly and helping them out if they’re stumped on a rule that can be complex.
I always try and remain calm, no matter how someone is treating me. If I am getting harrased by a player, I follow the staff guide and give out the punishments accordingly. I never lash out, or do something irrational that can cause bad publicity. I also don't let bias cloud my judgement, making me a fair staff member.
Why should we accept you as staff?:
I believe I have qualities that I can bring to the staff team that are useful.
I believe I'm very proficient when it comes to teamwork due to me having the key traits to work with others. I exceed in helping others, as well as trying to solve problems with others as a team and an individual. Teamwork is a big thing on major servers, as there's hundreds of players and only a few staff members, so having teamwork can result in making it feel like the staff team is unlimited.
Mature
I bring a mature state of mind when I join the server. I'm not one to go on a rant about how I lost a fight etc. in chat, or scream racial slurs because I disliked that someone was better than me in a fight. When I find cheaters, I don't tell "SPEC ME LOL HACKER" I simply record and report. This is why I'm a good choice for staff.
Professional
When you imagine staff, or any employee, you imagine someone who treats you with respect, follows the company/server guidlines that have been set down and enforces rules while also doing it with a respectful gesture. I can be professional with all types of people, while also throwing some jokes here and there. Being able to do your job and having fun with it is a very important thing, as it will keep you going when you get to a low point.
Helpful
If there's someone that may not be that experienced with the server, or is experiencing problems I'm always the one to help and figure out the problem, and help with a solution. If I cannot, I usually just refer them to the teamspeak support waiting rooms. I also help in multiple ways, like I've stated in the above section.
Bias
I know how to control my emotions, eliminate the relationship between me and a friend in a possible situation and treat everyone equivalent to their rank. (This meaning players are player, staff are staff superiors are superiors are etc. I am not referencing that I’m bias to donor ranks.)
Listener
I consider myself someone who is able to listen to another persons thoughts. If someone has an opinion or someone is telling me to do something I instantly open my ears and give them an opinion not that they want to hear, but an opinion which I feel is just and fair. Listening also has its perks to if you successfuly give someone advice in their problem, or just helping them. It goes a long way to assist someone in a problem which they asked you for, and increases the trust between people when you help them, which a bond is very important knowing that player and staff, or just people in general can trust eachother.
Respectful
Personally, being respectful is a key virtue which I feel is required in being a staff member. If you find a staff member vexxing a cantankerous player then you can see that they exacerbate the situation into something it does not have to be escalated to.
Responsible
I know my responsibilities and know how to handle them. If I were to be accepted as staff, I’d make sure I have a list of my responsibilities, and always know how I can maintain them, take care, and fulfill them to my very best. And I’m not scared to ask questions either. If I find myself confound on a certain task, then I’ll be sure to ask.
Can any staff members on the team vouch for you?
Not that I know of.
