Do you have any punishments on our network? If so, please describe your side of story:
I have been console muted for five minutes once for spamming in party chat. I have learned since then that spamming is not acceptable in any way on MunchyMC. Any other punishments were jokes from close staff friends.
Have you applied for this role before? If so, please explain the steps you have taken to improve as an applicant since your last application:
I applied for this role once back in January 2020. I am not proud of this application as I was very, very new to the server and didn’t have proper knowledge on how to moderate a community and identifying hackers/cheaters. Since then, I have taken leaps to familiarise myself with moderating a community and identifying the different hacks and cheats that people use.
What do you think your reputation is like within the community?
I am well-known within the Survival community. I am extremely active on Survival and I am active on the MunchyMC Discord. I have made a friend out of many of the players, both on and off the staff team. I always answer any questions in chat to the best of my ability and I have become reliable in that regard.
I have proven myself as a trustworthy individual, both by becoming Helper and by being a staff member on the Community Farm. I find it important to make everyone who joins feels welcomed within Survival, as I hope that they will keep coming back to this amazing server.
Why are you interested in the role and what motivated you to apply?
I am interested in this role because I really wish to make the Survival experience as fun and fair as possible for the players.
For a lot of people, survival is an escape, and I wish to help keep it a safe place. In the position of JMod, I could take better action on situations that require it.
The staff team and community on MunchyMC really motivated me to apply. One of my favourite things about Munchy as a whole is how kind and close the staff and community is with each other. The staff are always amazing with helping the community, either with questions or with people being griefed, and of course with dealing with cheaters and just making MunchyMC Survival a good experience for all. I would like to continue contributing to MunchyMC in a good way, and I feel that with the JMod position I could take this further.
Out of 10 (with 10 being very knowledgeable), how would you rate your knowledge on moderating a community?
I would rate myself 8/10 on my knowledge with moderating a community.
During my time as helper I have:
-worked and discussed with fellow helpers and other staff on how to effectively deal with any problems that may occur.
-learned to keep calm in stressful situations.
-connected and formed meaningful friendships with my fellow staff members.
I am an Assistant (Second-In-Command) at Tiki546 and SprinkleDonuts28’s popular Community Farm. This involves helping the owners make decisions regarding the farm and to also help moderate the farm staff discord server. This role has helped me know when it is necessary to call on moderators for griefing and also for dealing with other minor problems.
Finally, I am also a chat mod on DrewskiLuv’s Twitch channel, which has helped me deal out punishments to close friends in a fair and unbiased manner when necessary.
Out of 10 (with 10 being very knowledgeable), what would you rate your knowledge on Minecraft hacks and cheats, including finding and identifying cheaters?
I would rate myself a 7 out of 10 on my knowledge of hacks and cheats. Since I gained interest in becoming staff on MunchyMC, I have spent time researching the different hacks used by reporting hackers in Purgatory, and by reading up on a bunch of the different hacks such as fly, x-ray, speed and more.
Please link us to any hacker reports you have made (recorded and/or reported) on MunchyMC:
