Any other reason you should be admin:
Now, before anyone comments on this application I would just like to say that I am aware I resigned not too long ago, but now that I have had a short break to clear my head, I think I can step up to become an admin again and help out some of our custom and regular servers.

So, I think I should be admin because I know my way around the commands, know the rules inside and out (Hell, I even wrote some of them), and still very much care about Skial.

When I resigned, I knew that a day would come where I would apply again. I never expected it to be so soon, but I had some bad news about my health that week that I thought might absorb my life. Well, now I have settled into it more and while I may not be as active as I used to be, which was almost 24/7, I know I can do a great job at being an admin once again. I was always the go-to guy for jailbreak, and I kind of feel like its a part of who I am now. I really hope you guys reconsider me for the position, and I am sure I gained your trust in the time I was around. <3

Edit:
Retracting this app.
Zeebs brought up some good points and I realize reapplying was impulsive and stupid.​

+1 only because of his expertise on daycare and that he still genuinely cares about the servers and community. Honestly this seems very peculiar(to say the least) but I will admit he is a dang fine guy and he was reliable as an admin

Yeah, I would prefer not to go into more detail as for what happened, and I understand how its super sketchy (and early).
However, if you guys would have me I would be really happy to come along and help out again. If not, that's fine too. I'll still be around the forums.

It hasn't even been 2 weeks since you asked for your resignation. Easly could of just stepped back instead of stepping down.

Are you going to stop down again when the next version of smash comes out on whatever console?

You are an alright guy but question how committed you are to TF2.
 
I do like you Sory but it seems a tad silly to drop the admin for just a few weeks and come back. Think of it as a job. You don't quit a job and come back to it a few weeks later because you changed your mind. Atlest in my town if you do that you're shit out of luck.
 
In your resignation you said you barley play tf2 anymore, you don't do reports, and you don't like being an admin.

No, I wont be stepping down again.
It was a dumb decision in the first place, honestly, I thought I would be way busier than I actually am since I'm moving, transferring schools, and dealing with my health issue mentioned prior. I still enjoy TF2 and I can see why you would question my commitment to it, but I still play it pretty consistently and I plan to continue with it. I doubt I will leave it anytime soon. I can still play without Admin as well, I'll just have to report like everyone else and that's not a huge deal. I just know that I see some consistent rulebreaking going on when I am playing. Luckily I have Cr33p3r and Taptap around to help me out with that, though.
 
I question that as well but, in all honesty, I believe it was a hasty decision from the start. I think he overthought both his illness and saw it as something he would not be able to balance it with being an admin. If he believes he is up to do it, I still believe he can do it. Plus, he already has a reputation on custom as an admin.

However, I do agree with Deadfront in that you should have just stepped back instead of stepped down, but I believe he can step right back up. He has always been very helpful to both players and other admins in how to handle custom server rules.
 
+1, I won't ask for details because I understand that pressure from health issues can fuck with your mind, and it seems that it wasn't as grave as you might have thought originally when you made your resignation post.

Fact is, Sroy did his job on jb exceptionally good, and I don't see how a hasty written resignation because of health problems with for that time unforseeable consequences should invalidate his prior work and commitment for Skial.

Yeah, at the time of writing I really didnt play TF2 much anymore. A few days after I left, I got back into TF2. It really is a fun game.
Like I said before, it was a impulsive, dumb decision to give it up in the first place. I realize that. You're 100% correct that I said all of those things.
I cant take back what I said but I can try and prove to you that I was wrong. I really do miss being able to help out the community like I did before. Despite what I said in my recognition.
At the time I was feeling a lot of pressure from a lot of different things and I apologize for that.
 
+1, Sroy had his motives for resigning and I don't care what they were, he was a good admin previously, and he can be a good one now too.
 
Your events page says otherwise.

In the past five days you only played for about a hour. And you don't have much connection time between the 25th and now.

Right now your activity shows that you don't play tf2 much anymore.

I cant argue with that, your accusations are just, the past week has been a week of new releases and games for me, more than just smash brothers but a few other games.
Last week I was playing much more than I am now, especially in the mornings. I would also continue to take care of reports on the forum and hop in-server to take care of reports.
Even when I am not playing I am almost always online on steam and can take personal reports on top of the forum ones I promise to do.
When I was an admin, with the exception of the last 2 weeks I was there, I did these things and I will do them again.

However, I can completely understand why everyone is skeptical and doesn't trust this.
It's a out-of-the-blue re-application to something I gave up 2 weeks ago and my event logs are showing little to no activity in the past week and a half, no sugar coating it.

Although I do agree that resigning and re applying in a 2 weeks time span is really stupid.

+1 I guess.

EDIT; This is the last +1 I'm giving you, if you choose to resign again.

While I agree with that decision being incredibly dumb. I don't believe the whole "you don't do reports" was truthful. That one jb report you messaged me about that I had flawed on, you gave me the exact response Taptap, an admin, gave me so you still have admin-like traits, and you weren't even admin!

Not only that but you easily make friends when you play TF2, while activity has an impact on a decision it also depends what you do during the time active. For all we know, an individual could simply sit in a server farming ap and hours, is that active? Yes. Is it what Skial wants on the team? No! You on the other hand do work and make the experience a hell of alot better for everyone around you.

Without a doubt, I feel you are still fitting for admin and that alone deserves a big +1.

While I think we can all agree resigning was rather stupid, he did his job at admin very well, and so he deserved +1.
