Abdel, thanks for applying to be part of the PH staff team.
Unfortunately, I'm going to have to deny your application at this time. You're on your way to being staff material, but not there just yet.
Some things you'll want to improve on
- The creepy comments to female players. You may just be trying to be flirty and relaxed, but the server is not the place for that. I've been playing online video games for years now and have made several female friends on different games, including G-mod. Something that each one of them complains about is the online creeps that bother them when they're playing games. While I'm not calling you a creep, it might come across that way to some female players. They may not even feel comfortable using their mic on PH for fear of being targeted sexually.
- Unstuck abuse. We won't hold this against you forever, but we definitely need to know for certain that you won't be abusing this as a staff member. Abuse by a staff member is something I will not tolerate and looks very poorly on us.
- Dealing with trolls. You'll want to take in mind the suggestions offered in this thread on how to deal with trolls. Also, I'm sure that any of our moderators can offer you some advice on how to deal with them. Feel free to reach out to them, or me, about how to handle them more professionally. Trolling with them is usually not the solution, though.
You can re-apply on April 27th.
