[SIZE="2"][COLOR="Orange"]Firstly, before filling out this application I would like to just confront a few things.
I realise that there will be a few players within the forums who dislike me because of my PKing attitude, which is fair enough because I'll admit straight away that I taut opponents when PKing.
What I'd just like to say is that, the moderator position isn't about PKing, it has hardly anything to do with it. There is obviously the role involving hit/spec and runners, people abusing glitches and people who flame to a very severe extent because of their anger, but mostly the role of a moderator isn't PKing related.
I would like to show you all the requirements to be a moderator, there are below highlighted. If you just skim them, I'd appreciate it if you did carry on reading the orange text underneath.

As you can see, in order for us to apply for moderator you need 3 months in-game experience. I personally have been playing since May 2010. That was 22 months ago, almost 2 years. I have been in-active twice which has caused me to lose my position as a moderator both times, this is why I have waited another 3 months to apply for the moderator position again since I started playing again (as you can see it's March and I started up again in January) Alongside this you need 300 posts on the forums, I have over 5500 posts which is nearly 20x that amount. As well as this, I'm extremely well known and I help around a lot.
We then go on to being a respected player. I think it's safe to say that numerous people respect me on SilabGarza. Yes, a few will dislike me, but I'm confident that I could find more people who respect me, than dislike me.
I help in-game every day when I'm online. I go to the skilling area, I go to the trading area to look out for spammers. I give people advice at D-Zone, I stand around at home occasionally to point new players in the correct direction, I redirect people to the forums for guide information. I even help people gear up PKing. So I think I do my fair part in helping out.
I have a lot of friends that would support me for this position including members of staff.
Finally, it's obvious that I'm extremely active on the forums, that goes without saying.
Looking at the auto-decline list, I haven't done any of these 3 things purposely.
I'd now appreciate it if you looked at my application and made a vote on the poll at the end as well as a "post-reply" comment to go with that vote in order for you to explain why you have made your decision. Thank you very much.
Name: George
In-game name: Pog
Forums name: Pog (iPog on kBank)
Timezone(GMT +/- ?): 0:00 (I live in England)
Do you play over the night? On weekends I often play over the night, in the week I go offline at 10:30 as I go to college.
Average of time you play a week: I play 35 to 55 hours a week.
Are you active on the forums: I'm extremely active on the forums.
How long have you played SilabGarza: I have played SilabGarza for 22 months.
What is your Activity Points ingame? [::activity] I have 25123 on my main, but I also have about 5other accounts.
Have you read the moderator requirements?: Yes, I read them and saw no reason to not post an application.
Do you have 300 posts REQUIRED to post a moderator application? I have a lot more posts than just 300.
NOTE: If you do NOT read the requirements, and you post a moderator application, you will be disqualified
as moderator for the rest of your game play on SilabGarza on any and all accounts...
DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS?: I understand.
Explain why you should be mod (100 words minimum, do not be repetitive): I would like to start off by telling a small story.
The first day I joined SilabGarza I knew I would be staying a member of the server even before I logged in. It was 05-10-2010. On this day the server was offline all day, and as a new player people would have expected me to just go and find another server, but I didn't do that. I stayed up all night and waited for SilabGarza to eventually be turned on, while this was happening I gained a hundred posts or so.
I made my introduction and people were commenting saying "welcome to SG I've seen you on the chat box you seem nice" and things like that. But one guy named Kevin, a US Marine... commented on my application saying "I spy a future staff member". I remember him writing that and the moment I saw it I realised this guy had potential in me, so I stuck to my guns and worked as hard as I could.
I then obtained moderator after just 3 weeks of playing the game. After a few months passed (4 or 5) I then went in-active which meant I was demoted. I started playing again a month later and gained moderator once again, which I kept hold of for another few months but fate caught up with me and my laptop broke, which meant I had to be in-active once again and I was therefore demoted.
This story is to show people that I didn't get demoted for abusing any powers or anything, I genuinely didn't do anything wrong.
So, anyway; on from the story.
I feel that I am eligible for the moderator position because I have the experience. In fact, I have more than enough experience. I owned my own server for a few years, I've co-owned 4 servers, I've been staff on numerous other servers and I know exactly what to do in any situation that I am confronted with.
I'm calm when it comes to dealing with situations, and I give detailed instructions to whoever is involved on how I am going to go about the situation.
I use very high class grammar and I don't start fights with people. Yes, I'm highly opinionated and I think that's healthy because it leads me to expressing opinions that others may agree with, which comes in very handy when debating. Also, I'm a very trustworthy person/player that anyone can trust. No matter who you are and how much you hate me I'm not the kind of person to stab someone else in the back. If anyone, no matter who they are needs help, I will offer it to them just as I would to someone who I am very friendly with.
As a moderator I would be even more helpful than I am at the moment, the crown would just make me more visible to players and would reassure them that I am going to give them valid and reliable information on whatever it is that they are looking for. I won't mess around and I'll do the job properly.
I'm not in it for the title of being a moderator, I'm in it because I'm dedicated to SilabGarza and I want to show that I am fit for the position of a moderator on the server. I will not let PKing get in the way of fulfilling my role and I will certainly not use my ranking as an advantage against other players.
I really hope you read through my application and the thoroughly so that you can come to a fair decision on the conclusion of my application, it would mean a lot to me to become a moderator and I won't mess things up.
All you need to do, is trust me.[/COLOR][/SIZE]
