In regards to my comment earlier, I would like to say that I do believe you can easily reapply again. It seems my response was the only comment with any real disagreement that had evidence along with it. I personally think you should just get to know more people on the skial forums, as some don't even play TF2 anymore but still remain active on here. Another thing would be to watch your chat logs (invest in a mic if need be). I've seen a lot of applications look very well done until someone posts chat logs. I'd love to see you reapply in the future :blush:

With all due respect Dutch I don't think that matters, you are right some don't even play tf2 anymore and those people should not even have a say.

I don't see anything majorly bad in his chat, not like there is anything rule breaking.

Never said there was any rule breaking. I just found it slightly hypercritical to say she would defend people from vote abuse, and then vote slay someone (in the logs it looked like there was no reason behind it). She had provided more insight into the chat log later so I thank her for that. I can only go by what the chat logs are showing me and showing everyone else. And I believe they should still have a say. Nobody would like to see someone with that type of power who doesn't deserve it, even if they aren't directly affected.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, at the end of the day it's Bottiger and the other server admins that have the final say.

-1 Your app didn't have enough "I'm really interested in the job."

P.S. Being in the forums is extremely helpful. Most of the people voting in here are "old" TF2 players.....and forum trolls now. I would suggest getting on here and also talking on discord. Just being in game doesn't allow for you to be admin. You have to be apart of the "whole" community.

Seems like ''I don't see any active admins on the European side'' wasn't clear enough for you then.

100%...... agree with you. I'm in the US. I play on Payload...or did play on payload us server and I didn't see any admins for the longest time. Point is...unless your a reg around the forums...or discord and if you don't get to know them then you will not be accepted. You have to have a really good damn app . Otherwise this is a boys club only.

Despite low forum activity (not an enforced requirement by any means, but it would be nice to see a few reports), I don't see why not

Socks I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish here by spreading lies about us on other people's admin apps.

Anyone with a brain can look at the recently approved admins. For example phantom's first contact with the community was a Ban Appeal! His second was his admin app.

https://www.skial.com/search/member?user_id=40251

He did not even get on Discord until after he was approved... Same goes for Soo.

And they had people give them -1s and they did not throw a tantrum.

I don't know whether you still support Skial or you are just trolling now. Whatever you are doing, I am going to have to ask you to stop trying to spread bullshit just because your admin app did not go well.

Kael's first admin app ended with me silencing him for racism. I +1'd his second app 6 months later because he was a good applicant ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm surprised at the negative responses on this application so far. It's pretty good. My only feedback / criticism would be to start recording and reporting rule-breaking.

-1.
Your admin app and all the requirements are fufilled and all, but there's just a looming threat or something that we aren't seeing. It could be either the community's reaction to you, or you yourself, but I can't judge it. You've made a good admin app, but sometimes you just feel like something could go terribly, terribly wrong.
Elaborating on this due to the confusing rating.
Everyone gives the most generic reasons as to why you should be admin, and I don't see any real reasons as to why you should be admin.

Reason: She's a girl, we don't have any girl admins.
Answer: We have Sakiko and RMSniper.

Reason: We need more EU admins.
Answer: T-Wayne, Luke, and Sakiko are doing good enough.

Reason: You're only -1ing because she's never been active on the forums/discord.
Answer: As Bottiger said, Soo and Phantom.

This may have changed and I may have skipped over it, but not one of these people have actually played with you.
They're all forumers.
The only impression we have of you, real or not, is what we are finding in your chat log.
The advice that I have to give? Make more friends. If you already have friends, invite them here as soon as you make the app.
It was too early for me to say my confusing statement, because I wasn't sure what to make of your admin application. I do now.
It still stays at a -1.
(repeated edits made because holy fuck this app is confusing)

Will you get mad if you lose admin?:
Nope, I have played on your servers without the admin privilege and will continue to do so only if there is an actual reason behind the removal
So, how would you take it if you joined the server one day to find you no longer had admin privilege and no reason was given as to why?
planning on becoming an admin since people liked me
Was there any other reason for wanting to become admin on uberpirates?

Yes, I loved the community so I wanted to help.

Apparently I'm blind I missed this question, Well I would seek answers on why I was removed and if still I wasn't given an answer I would be quite mad since you wouldn't do that in a workplace anywhere else, Can't imagine a boss firing someone without talking to the employee first.
If the removal is self explanatory like abusing my powers as an admin or just in general breaking the rules then of course I shouldn't question on to why I was removed nor be mad.

Hypothetical situation:

You are playing on a server. About 4 people are talking about something stupid, like anime and Batman over and over non stop. A lot of other players tell them to shut up. Clearly their choice of topic is annoying the other players on the server.

What do you do....

Well suggesting them to take their conversation somewhere else would be better, Since punishing them for talking about something they like without it being racist or a clear harassment towards religion/sexuality would be stupid.
Or interrupting in tradechat...
You also have in-game mute system in TF2 so either if its in voice or text you block both with valves mute system, you do not need an admin to handle that situation.
