Over the past few months I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about where I’m at with TTT, gaming communities in general, and honestly just time management as a whole. When I first joined the server I was in a completely different stage of life. I had way more free time, a much more consistent sleep schedule, and I could justify sitting around spectating a round for 20 minutes because someone swore they “definitely saw love4puppys murder that guy."

As time went on though, responsibilities started stacking up. Work got busier, weekends stopped really feeling like weekends, and even hopping on for “just one round” somehow always turned into me staring at the clock at 1:30 AM wondering why I had spent 45 minutes arguing over whether a jihad should count as “self defense.” That said, I genuinely appreciate everybody I’ve met through the community. Some of the funniest moments I’ve had online happened here, and even the dumb arguments about rules or hitreg or whether detective should be allowed to buy certain items became part of the routine in a weird way. It’s one of those servers where you log on intending to relax and instead end up involved in a full courtroom drama because someone claims a microwave explosion was “RDM adjacent at worst.”

Being in a TTT position also gave me a different perspective on things behind the scenes. You start noticing how much time actually goes into handling reports, resolving player issues, trying to stay consistent with rulings, and generally keeping everything from devolving into total chaos. Most people only really see the visible part of it. They don’t see someone spending 25 minutes reading logs because two people disagree about who threw a discombob first.

I think communities like this survive because people are willing to volunteer their time even when it’s occasionally frustrating, and I do respect the people who continue doing that. It’s definitely not always easy balancing fairness, player expectations, and the fact that half the server communicates exclusively through screaming. Unfortunately though, after a recent incident I’ve realized it’s probably best for me to step away from my position moving forward. Earlier today I accidentally purchased donor on the forums instead of points and got myself demoted automatically.

I'm not actually leaving I just want to make somebody move this to shitposting and scare some of you guys. I got demoted so I feel like I gotta "resign." If Dink can give me my inventory points so I can chase melee items I'd appreciate it and I still want a Borderlands skin.

Not going anywhere and excited for where we're going. Good to see a populated server. ChatGPT wrote this whole fuckin thing and I added some details.

@Im A Bald Eagle

I am donor in protest until you apply for Trusted again or Dink puts me back to Mod to handle stuff.

I know we had an agreement not to badger you about it but it's funnier when I ignore that.

Also I'm drunk.

Ingame Name: Damien1579
SteamID: STEAM_0:0:221473561
Discord Tag & ID: damien1579 / 319526440020213760

Time Played: a lot

Availability (Approx. times you play, and time zone): pretty much whenever I'm online, which is all the time

What have been some challenges you've faced as a Tmod?: I've mostly faced issues with getting playtime, but now that the server is coming back from the dead this hasn't been an issue. There are some times where I've noticed looking back at it that I didn't de-esculate that well, but I do learn from these moments and try to do better if similar situations rise. Also the !bring command kinda sucks and I struggle with it from time to time.

What have you done well as Tmod?: Karma banning people who should be banned, handling reports, sending in ban requests, making sure people aren't stuck, making sure the server stays chill and fun.

Have you had any Staff Strikes? (Link Relevant Posts): not that I know of

Have you previously applied for staff? (Link Relevant Posts): jammin loves this prompt (check post history and sort by accepted/denied)

What, in your mind, makes someone a good candidate for Mod? Do you feel that you exemplify these qualities?: First and foremost, people who are very knowledgeable about the rules and it's nuances. Then people who are okay with banning regulars/guests indefinitely even if it's a shitty situation. Then lastly, people who *actually* want to be in the role.

Did you fill out the required scenario questions for rank you are applying for (Link Here)?: yah

Other: Any and all valid criticism is welcome, if my responses to prompts seem short it's not from lack of effort, I've made a lot of these and it's hard to find things to say. If you have any questions or concerns please reply to the thread, dm me directly, or dm a staff member you trust. Thank you for taking a look at my app :)

Insert Mod app below chatgpt make me sound really cool and sexy

Ingame Name: Nelluc9
SteamID: STEAM_0:1:80274343
Discord Tag & ID: nelluc9

Time Played: 600 Hours

Availability (Approx. times you play, and time zone): Varied, EST afternoons/evenings

What have been some challenges you've faced as a Tmod?: Finding a balance between applying maximum force of the rules versus letting players have a little fun. This primarily pertains to micspam and chat topics. I've found that a simple "hey, let's not talk about that" works well for risqué topics that probably shouldn't escalate. If someone is playing infrequent short audio clips through their mic, usually I'll let that slide unless it's immediately disruptive or breaks any other rules. Overall I think I do pretty well with this but I might need to start being a little shorter with some spammers (looking at you caribou)

What have you done well as Tmod?: Archiving my watchlist evidence and going through the proper avenues for bans/reports/dev additions. Our system isn't always perfect but I really respect what we're going for and I strive to mantain our sense of organization.
I also try to be consistent when it comes to attitude towards other players on the server, I actively try to make it a fun place and I think over the past month we've really succeeded in that goal.

Have you had any Staff Strikes? (Link Relevant Posts): Nope

Have you previously applied for staff? (Link Relevant Posts): yes, https://www.dinklebergsgmod.com/site/sho...?tid=20312 & https://www.dinklebergsgmod.com/site/sho...?tid=19388

What, in your mind, makes someone a good candidate for Mod? Do you feel that you exemplify these qualities?:
1) A moderator should be well-versed with the moderation system, and have quick access to in-game recording, the staff guidelines, and game rules to mantain an objective presence.
2) A moderator shouldn't be problematic towards other players, and shouldn't have a temper prone to retaliation or crashouts.
3) A moderator should try to have fun. At this point in the staff chain if you're not having fun it's a job and you will burn yourself out.
I meet these qualities and am willing to put in the effort to uphold them.

Did you fill out the required scenario questions for rank you are applying for (Link Here)?: Yes

Other:
I'm very glad Dink's TTT just somehow decided to stop sleeping and has players again (thanks in large part to rand and anxelic)! I can't wait to enjoy another year of TTT with everyone. I'm always open to feedback so feel free to rip me on this staff app. Love to all the dinklers <3

Event Giveaway Nights to Encourage Activity

Sat, 11 Apr 2026 18:45:50 +0000

Hey all,

For those of you who may be unfamiliar with the name, I am Prince Nicky. I've been a part of the Dinkleberg community for over 12 years now, and across that time, have server in a staff role on every server we have or once had - TTT, PH, DarkRP, and Murder - apart from Deathrun. It's been incredible watching this server become one of the longest-running and most successful communities in Garry's Mod, and knowing that even if I disappear for a few months or longer, I can always come back and hop onto my favorite TTT server. Lately, however, like many older communities, we've been seeing some quieter periods and stagnation, and I'd like to offer at least one humble thought on how to bring back some excitement and activity to the servers, particularly my longtime mainstay - TTT.

My suggestion is to launch weekly Giveaway Event Nights. These would be special, scheduled sessions (perhaps every Friday or Saturday evening) that are announced on the Discord server for visibility, and will feature normal TTT gameplay mixed with giveaways of genuinely rare and desirable items, such as custom vapes or lightsabers, extremely rare player models, unique guns, or other items. I think to make it even more compelling, we could introduce a couple of brand-new items to the server, but make them exclusive to these events. In other words, players could only obtain them by participating and winning during the nights, with no purchase option outside of these events or freebies given out or used by admins.

Players love chasing and acquiring exclusive online items, for whatever reason. Just take a look at knives in Counter Strike or the other micro-transaction content that is popular in the games popular with Gen-Zers. These nights could give players a strong reason to hop on those giveaway nights, and fall back in love with TTT such that they will keep hopping on regularly throughout the week as well, and keep the server lively and active.

That is my proposal, and I welcome any thoughts or feedback.

Admin o7

Ingame Name: anxelic
SteamID: STEAM_0:1:94979897
Discord Tag & ID: anxelic, 148879777053409280
Hours Played: 601

When did you first join the TTT Staff Team?: April 2025

What do you plan to do as a TTT Admin? What is restricting you from accomplishing this as a Mod?: I want to take a more active role in representing the player base and helping the server. I believe I've built a pretty good relationship with players and want to use that to help bridge communication between the community and staff, making people feel heard. I also want to contribute to improving the server itself wherever possible. I feel limited in my ability to influence larger decisions and contribute to general server development discussions as mod. As an Admin, I would be able to take on more responsibility and play a more direct role in the server’s growth. I also aim to continue to be an approachable presence so players feel comfortable reaching out with concerns or suggestions.

How can you help the community beyond TTT as an Admin?: I believe I bring an objective and level-headed perspective when handling situations. I take the time to understand all sides while considering evidence before making decisions, which helps ensure fairness and consistency. Beyond TTT, I want to contribute to making the overall community a welcoming and inclusive space. Whether it’s assisting with issues within other servers, supporting other staff members, or helping resolve conflicts, I want to positively impact the community as a whole, not just TTT.

What made you decide to apply?: Several things influenced my decision to apply. The loss of Virunas and the renewed effort from certain people to revive TTT, were the bigger ones. While I cannot replace what Virunas contributed, I want to help step up and support the server moving forward. With the recent decline and revival efforts, it became clear that the server needs dedicated staff willing to invest time and effort into rebuilding and maintaining it. Over the past week, I’ve been driving this revival, and it feels amazing to see positive progress! I want to continue contributing to that momentum in a larger capacity.

Anything else you would like to add?: I’m committed to the long-term success of the server and the community. I’m always open to feedback and continuously looking for ways to improve as a staff member. :3
