*If you are applying for moderation, Describe what you think is the most important in moderation.
I believe the most important thing involved in being a moderator is ensuring you are able to fairly and effectively moderate issues players encounter in a respective manner and thus deliver satisfactory mediation relative to server and player standards as well as to deliver accurate information to newer players who are interested in joining the community.

Making sure the cogs of the game keep moving but not doing it in a way that so to speak isn't fair. Making sure everyone in general is just having a good time.

Discord name:Gracimasta

In-character name:Jones Reaper

general character info:Rust hair, blue eyes, young age. Has a talent for jokes and making a joke of themselves. Has seen the world more than once, and hopes to continue the trend

Which role is your character's main(ex: Technician, Marine, etc): Designated marksman. I take things from a distance, but I'm not afraid to get close and lob some grenades for added affect. 

Reason for joining: Ever since I played Halo for the first time (give or take 14 years ago) I feel in love with what it means to be part of the UNSC fighting machine. I relished at the fact that you could only play Master Chief for much of the series (ODST changed that ). I love what the fight for and where they stand in the Lore. Being part of the UNSC is my calling, and I hope to satisfy the requirements.

In-character name: James Flynn

general character info: James was born on the ship to his new home in New Jerusalem. He studied to become a police officer, but at the age of 19 enlisted in the UNSC marines against his parents wishes, cause they wanted him to finish his schooling before he decided to do anything rash. During basic he demonstrated exceptional marksmanship and specialized in using the SRS99D-S2 AM weapon. He's calm under pressure. Loves a good chuckle and doesn't mind trudging through mud for eight miles with his comrades

Which role is your character's main(ex: Technician, Marine, etc): Scout sniper Marine

Reason for joining :I've always admired the marines in Halo cause they were never the invincible boys that the Spartans are.I'd also like to progress to ODST and this is the first step in that direction

Anomaly research, the light fixture over the anomaly scanner will ruin any scans.

In-character name: Janet Miller

general character info: Janet Miller. Saint. Hero.  These are words that nobody would use to describe Janet. Hailing from earth, in the sol system, Janet joined the military after insurgent forces raided a nearby military installation. Upon witnessing the carnage and devastation, she decided that she had only one option, and signed up that afternoon. Upon completion of basic training, Janet tried to join the elite corp of pilots, but dropped out for undisclosed reasons. Janet then went on to specialize in the machine gunnery school, before being assigned to the UNSC Heavens Above.


Which role is your character's main(ex: Technician, Marine, etc): Machine Gunner Marine.

Reason for joining : UNSC Loyalty, Comradery, Honour.

As it stands, current money has no real worth and this wouldn't be implemented overnight but it'd help to concrete the economy and give a basis to stand and improve on.

First order of business would be to make a console that gives colonists jobs and changes their ID accordingly. These jobs would each have a payscale and every 10-15 minutes a new payday would happen. The next step is to add in an admin command of adjusting the taxation of the colony which would impact how much money the colonists receive each paydate. We would then adjust the colony to have more vendor type objects and maybe a shopping center where this money could be spent, this system comes into play more later. With the increase in taxation, the price of goods in vendors would also increase by the same percentage as the taxes being taken from each paydate.

The next step would be to add in overmap objects that act as a type of black market, which would be easily concealed in the activity of NPC ships and stations. The Insurrectionists will start with little and need to depend on the support of, or violent action taken on, the colony as a means of procuring funds to use to purchase better gear from the black markets, with the ability to sell stolen goods on the black market through the aforementioned vendor system.

The improvements made to gameplay would: give colonists more incentive to assist the insurrection, give the UNSC another thing to do in the system (ie cracking down on black markets), give value to the goods produced by the colony, give the colonists a better and more concreted role to fill in the game, improve on both the overmap and Geminus by giving more functional objects to fill the world space (as opposed to useless objects being filler), give Insurrectionists more reason to conduct raids on NPC ships, and help secure the need for a governing head in the colony.

Do you understand the RoE? Yes

Do you understand that you are not above the law, and may be persecuted for not following the RoE? Yes

Do you understand that you can be removed from the whitelist at any given time, based on your behavior, even when not playing the role you applied for? Yes

What do you think your job is as the role you are applying for? My job is to command, orchestrate, oversee the mission at hand. I will be responsible for setting the the squads up via my own will or by assigning someone to set squads for me, I am the person with the final say and I have the most impact in all aspects of the mission at hand. 

My job will entail, devising tactics, fortification planning at times, diplomacy, Warfare ROE, ensuring the marines remain professional, ensure damage is minimal to the colony as it is important to the inner colonies and Earth as a hole.  I represent and embody how the marines should try to be seen and how they should try to reflect to the colonists.  The Job of commander is many many things wrapped into a bow. I will mainly remain ship side depending on situation and progress of the marines planet side.  I will give briefings and ensure the frigate is never under immediate danger. Should i need to I will fuel the ship, power the ship and fly the ship. I am responsible for  alerting the colony to our presence or assigning that role to someone in the case I am doing things on the ship that acquire my attention. I also understand there is a High Command that out rank me and they have the power to even remove me from command as they deem fit.

Why should you be whitelisted? Because I actually try to RP my role and im not a baldie rambo all blood thirsty.  I actually strive to help role play prosper in the server and I believe that this server has the chance to be the best server in the ss13 community RP wise.  As Commander I can do a bit more through RP without getting Admins involved and this will encourage the RP point of the server without everyone turning it into a TDM or stressing admins out with silly things that people tend to do while in character. I like to try to show people there are otherwise to experience a round other than shooting it out. I am not afraid to crack the whip on marines disrespecting or all together throwing out the Chain of Command.

Admin's CKEY/BYOND username: mactoperfuror

Details of complaint: after the server reverted me back to the lobby even though i was the only one to chose a role i A-helped about it and the admin did nothing not even being willing to let me observe and then have em spawn me and give me the gear for that role no they muted me from A-help and because i could not use A-help to ask one of the other admins i used OOC they then proceeded to mute me from that so i was using dead chat as a last ditch effort to at least get them to send me back to the lobby from observing but instead they baned me, the date of this occurrence is 4/17/2018

Ckey: Jarilovv.

Discord name (username####): Jarilov #9011.

Character Name(s): Victor Kovacs.

Do you understand the RoE?: I am very familiar with ROE and confident with my knowledge of the all the rules of the server. I often find myself teaching newer people the ROE and the importance of the ROE.

Do you understand that you are not above the law, and may be persecuted for not following the RoE?: I understand. OOC: as a med-high RP server, obeying rules and listening carefully to admins is key to ensuring everyone can enjoy themselves. IC: My character rarely breaks ROE, only having broken it in two instances that I can think of, and one of these was before the ROE was enforced. I understand as a standing army there are laws that must be followed by soldiers, hence the existence of a military police. 

Do you understand that you can be removed from the whitelist at any given time, based on your behavior, even when not playing the role you applied for?: I understand this and I know it does not have to come to this.

What do you think your job is as the role you are applying for?: I base my role as a gunnery sergeant much on the performance of the late R. Lee Ermy in Full Metal Jacket, I believe the 'Gunny' is there to enforce discipline into the ranks of the rank and file; using whatever method in the pursuit of gaining an acceptable level of discipline from non-NCO's and non-CO's(Except in a few certain cases such as when an NCO speaks down to a CO). I have had much experience in this role as it has been my primary since the around the second half of my playtime on this server after I played through as both a marine and a squad leader.

Why should you be whitelisted?: I believe I should be accepted as I present a more than acceptable level of roleplay in game. I spend most of my playtime on Kovacs(Around 9 out of every ten rounds) and have an exceptional understanding of Military RP as a result of past experience as well as a genuine interest in the military. I also do my best to help out newer marines as I do enjoy helping people, even if my characters methods are often draconian. I believe I am fairly decent at the combat of SS13 and I am extremely confident in my capability to lead, I rarely hesitate in tense situations and most marines that have disobeyed my orders have often reaped the consequences. I also know I can often garner the respect of my marines, particularly, if they themselves roleplay effectively. I also believe I am more than capable of dealing with insubordination, particularly marines who do not listen to their officers. I also believe a few people will vouch for my effectiveness in the 'Gunny' role.
