I'll preface my post by saying that I have had no interactions with nodnerb outside of the server. Therefore, my comments may come across as pretty harsh for those that might be his friend and know him in another forum.
I find nodnerb to be, frankly, a very annoying individual. I don't like playing with him on. He trolls constantly and a lot of the time this is not in a harmless, playful manner. Rather, he encourages trouble which contributes to the server descending into chaos. And the micspam. Every single time he is on, every single round this person screams in their mic. My ears are in pain when he is on. No one else has a mic as loud as him and he feels the need to constantly scream. It's never funny. Forced screaming is only annoying.
He has several dozen warns for this type of micspam. Warns are not meant to be collected. They are meant to give a person notice that their behavior is inappropriate. Clearly that hasn't worked. The blatant disrespect for staff members, as synthray noted, is appalling. The screaming continues every single time he is on, despite him knowing full well that it is not permitted. He was banned by Cake for 24 hours just two weeks ago for this exact thing - screaming in his mic in dead chat. Yet I came on the server for a few minutes the other day and once again, he was screaming in his mic. Clearly he doesn't care about what the staff tell him. And if you can't follow even simple rules, like not leaving peoples ears in pain every time you are on, then I can't even begin to understand why you would think you should be staff.
You go out of your way to annoy staff members and make our job more difficult. People like you are the reason staff don't want to go on. Because if they dare punish you, they'll get flak from your buddies. And if we dare punish anyone else on the server, you and your buddies will also throw a hissy fit. It doesn't matter how deserved a punishment is. You, and others, go up in arms every single time.
Before I resigned, I offered to permaban some of the problem players on the server so no one else had to deal with the inevitable stream of complaints that would arise. One of those problem players I would have banned would have been you.

If you didn't do it after 20+ warnings and multiple bans, I find it hard to believe you would make any change at this point. You clearly like to go out of your way to annoy people.

They are not wrong, nodnerb will never be staff and this application could be closed right away without even a committee vote. There have been few other applications deserving of such an obvious no.
Besides the recent micspam ban and the dozens of warns, you have been banned for more serious issues as well. 5 bans total, but the following stand out the most to me.
Harassment and toxicity bans are not something to be taken lightly. In fact, I think its safe to say that any ban for those issues should be an automatic and permanent disqualification from every serving on the staff team. You have two of these bans. Based on my experience with you, I have no doubt that these are both legitimate and justified bans as well.
I know the chances that this application is actually "for real this time" are slim, but I figured I'd comment nonetheless in the event that it is (or so I can copy and paste in case you ever make a real application).
