Hi Evan, to be honest I also share the concerns that David and CKG share regarding your ability to staff the server alone. While I think you are capable, you have to have the confidence to actually handle the server yourself. That being said, having the powers of a trusted can limit your ability to calm down a server (i.e. via the admin say feature).
And some situations do get out of hand for any 1 staff member to handle.
I've personally pinged on-call staff for help twice when a server was getting too wild - whether it be too many reports or a crazy amount of trolling/harassment that one person couldn't be reasonably expected to handle.
Overall here is my analysis:
Pros:
-Knows the rules
-Does reports
-Responds to on-call staff calls
-Very active on staff discord
-Very experienced
Cons:
-Activity can be spotty at times
-May struggle to handle a full server solo
-Not many recent ban requests
-One ban request that Mana handled didn't have a lot of evidence, he had to dig
Overall i'm not very concerned about the handling of a server solo. To me, that's more of an issue when jumping from T-Mod to Mod. I'm more concerned about your ability to collect evidence and post ban requests. You don't really have a lot of ban requests to parallel your activity.
At the end of the day, I feel that most staff should be at the T-mod level as opposed to the trusted level. I feel that Evan is mature enough to handle when to/when not to karma ban and won't abuse the !bring command, and I'd like to see how he uses the @@@ feature to better handle rowdy servers.
I will +1 this application based on your in-game time and your knowledge of the ruleset - and the fact that this is a jump from trusted to T-mod. However I'd encourage you to work harder on ban requests. As far as getting help for a toxic server, do not be afraid of calling for help. In fact, I encourage it. Staff are there to help other staff. Until such a time as you are making the jump from T-mod to mod, I feel this factor isn't that important to take into account.
