  1. Minecraft IGN: DarkStriderUK
  2. Position applying for: Mod
  3. Age|Timezone: 21, GMT London
  4. How long have you been on Herocraft?: Since September 2011
  5. Why do you think you would make a good mod?:
Past experience dealing with a large playerbase on a game server, I've run my own servers ranging from games such as :
  • Ragnarok Online
  • Lineage 2
  • World of Warcraft
  • Team Fortress 2
  • Counter Strike Source
  • Battlefield 2, 2142, Bad Company and Bad Company 2
From this I've learnt how to deal with complaints, griefing and overall how to handle a large playerbase efficiently with little to no drama/issues.

The way I handled myself as an administrator/moderator was a fair, but also firm approach. I gave people the benefit of the doubt, especially when evidence was lacking but made sure that if the situation happened again, that I wouldn't be as forgiving the next time.

Ontop of that, I've always meshed well with any community I've been in, a lot of people tend to like my approach to moderating because I do look at issues from both sides before I make a decision, but when things do go downhill with a player and they tend to cuss me out or get up in my face over a decision, I won't lose my nerve over it and I'll just handle it swiftly and with as little fuss as possible.
6. Additional info you would like to tell us?:​
I'm in another game called Secondlife, in this I gain a lot of experience in organisation and teamwork by being a member of whats called an "SLM", Second Life Military.​
In this group I'm responsible for gathering information and organising it to present to raid leaders to attack opposing forces, as well as that I'm also responsible for some diplomatic talks with groups when it comes to information gathering as I must keep good relations with them to find this information out, i've been doing this since 2007, as such most of my current skills are a result of what I've learnt from here, TheEthanEffect is also a member of the same military, The Ordo Imperialis.​
Ontop of that the most enjoyable thing I find to do on servers is to have conversations with the playerbase, get to know people and allow them to know me, this just improved overal respect between both moderator and player, with this I can teach my skills to someone I've gotten to know and one that that person could become moderator/administrator for this server or and other server they join in their life, besides, how else would we all learn our moderation abilities~​
If you want to get to know me better, I'm more then happy to have a conversation over TS, Skype or even ingame, always willing to help and always willing to learn more to improve my skills.​
