[Icey]

My forums are semi busted but that's a Lin issue even dating back to 2018 so I'll just rewrite it here and delete the previous post if I can.

I'm gonna give an honest(er) opinion since this is an actual application and give responses to really well thought out points.
Returning to Original Rank after resignation:
Now this would be important to implement if the staff situation was in serious situation with inactivity or suddenly the entire staff team has resigned/quit/vanished. Currently I believe the current staff to player situation depends on the time of day and the position most times and I'm around almost all hours except 6am-11am. Most days after noon EST there are at least 3 to 6 staff members on ranging in positions, could be all 4 trusted, 1 mod, and a t-mod and so for and so forth. When it's becoming past 7-8pm EST staff are much more sporadic and often leaving one staff member regardless of any position but I'm noticing its often a trusted doing the grunt. Now that is what I've seen and what you've seen can be different from everyone and that's okay. Why did I include those time-frames is because most of the time Derp is conveniently around when it's one staff member against the world and I agree that you should start at the beginning like everyone else and rise up but if Derp was trusted alongside another staff member more staff members would be inclined to get on and stay on that's a positive there but I do agree no-one should get their original position back regardless of your position unless there was an extreme need to draft more staff members.

Staffing Under Influence (SUI):
Now I don't have any history of you being fucking smashed and playing a video game or just you in general but if you admit that drunk you is a complete dumbass... then you're a complete dumbass under the influence and probably would be egg/trolled on by your friends and Randoms on the server to do stupid shit that can either cost you demotion or worse a full on ban. Only way I would see you combat this if you let higher-ups know so a higher-up or two can basically become your get-back coach and make sure you aren't persuaded into doing stupid shit and I've seen this work back in the day when Trevor who was fucking hammered decided to get on the server and was practically monitored by Scoovie(?) and someone else that I cannot remember but I really should lmfao.

Slurs...:
I'm keeping this short, in the dark chats with secluded buddies say whatever the fuck you want. Closed Doors. What stays in those chats stay in those chats. but in a public community not everyone has the same humor as you or won't give a fuck what you say it's impossible to please everyone.
All I can say is say it in private chats behind closed doors whatever but in public try and monitor yourself i guess?

Overall, yeah you can come off as trolling but you've seem to care and respect others when it matters. if you can handle the slurs and trolling then you'll be just fine as staff
If you can use that same dedication for map-building and use it for staffing you'd quickly rise up through the ranks and get back to moderator. As others have said and what I've saw with Everton you have shown your dedication and appreciation to the server.

I'm usually easy to persuade from a Neutral and I never -1 anyone unless you've really fucked up and everyone has fuck-ups that we don't like or want to remember and that's fine. we're humans but to improve on those mistakes and make things better to make sure those mistakes never happen again is what makes a great person and a damn good staff member.

-1 for Mod and/or Tmod)
+1 for Trusted

Good luck man.

still fuck you bryan for buffing shitguns

This sums up my thoughts. Derp has been an absolute beast the times I've been tho I've  never talked to him drunk. I personally believe sober him is as qualified as the other candidates and I think he deserves a chance to be trusted. +1
