Prerequisite checklist:
- Have you been a regular player on MunchyMC for at least one month?:
Yes! I have been playing on the server for over a year now and I’ve been super active on survival streaming, making a nice little community, and flexing my MEDIA tag :D
- Are you able to record and upload good quality videos of hackers?:
I am proficient in OBS and am prepared to apply my skills.
- Do you have TeamSpeak3 and Discord downloaded and are competent with them?:
I am familiar with both mediums.
Application
IGN: WhalePassenger
Age: ~20 (not comfortable sharing on a public forum, DM for my actual age)
Timezone: PST
Can you use a microphone for an interview?: Yes
Role you are interested in (Helper or JMod): Helper
Server you are interested in moderating (pick ONE): Survival
How active can you be per week? Weekdays I am available for 2-4 hours/day (evenings), weekends I am available for ~6 hours/day
Do you have any punishments on our network? If so, please describe your side of story: No, I am flawless (I am incredible at following rules)
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: No
What do you think your reputation is like within the community?
I think I have a very good reputation within the Survival Community. I have made an effort over the past year to interact with the other survival regulars and make a community that people feel welcome and safe in. I try to help people when I can and I like to give everyone a chance to hang out when I am streaming or not busy with the MCMMO grind. I also like to host events every once in a while which I believe has also boosted my reputation.
I am a stickler for the rules though and if someone is not respecting my claim rules I am not afraid to kick or ban them. This has gained me some respect as I am fair but do not let people push me around or break rules without consequence.
Why are you interested in the role and what motivated you to apply?
I am interested in being a helper because I want to take the next step in engaging in this community. As previously mentioned, I stream on munchy and have received the media rank. The media rank has helped me engage with the munchy community in a more social aspect but I’d love a chance to help moderate this community that I love.
I have noticed a gap in moderation in the PST evening which causes some players difficult to play (whether that is because of toxic chat members or other reasons). As someone with experience in community moderation and a love of following the rules, I think I am a great fit for helping out!
Out of 10 (with 10 being very knowledgeable), how would you rate your knowledge on moderating a community? 9
As a streamer and discord server owner I am very familiar with moderating a chat and making sure they are keeping content family friendly and kind. Also, I grew up with a mediator for a father so I have conflict management and communication built into my DNA. I gave myself a 9 because everyone has room to grow :D
Out of 10 (with 10 being very knowledgeable), what would you rate your knowledge on Minecraft hacks and cheats, including finding and identifying cheaters? 8
I am familiar with most types of hacks and how to detect them (fly, xray, speedboost, ect.) I gave myself an 8 because I am not as good detecting hacking as I am moderating a community.
Please link us to any hacker reports you have made (recorded and/or reported) on MunchyMC: I have not submitted any reports.
