Time:The days I’m usually most active really depends on my school schedule. Recently my school schedule has been quite forgiving, and I’m usually pretty free. However, I can always be reached on steam as I have my mobile with me essentially 24/7, and I have unlimited phone data so people can always reach me via steam if needed. I usually play on skial servers during the afternoon or evenings and my timezone is of Pacific Standard. However I tend to sleep at very late hours on non-school days, ranging usually from at least 12 am - 4 am and as a result, I wake up sometime around noon. In the upcoming summer semester I will only be taking one course so I will have even more time than I already had to moderate. Not to be mistaken, even if I take more than one course in a semester, I find myself having an unreasonable amount of time to game, therefore being available very often.

Will you get mad if you lose admin?:I don’t think anybody in their right mind would say yes to this question if they want to successfully apply and have a chance at being an admin, so just like all the other 30 pages of admin applications on this forum, I’m going to say no. Being an admin is a privilege, not a right. Even if my adminship was stripped away, theoretically speaking, the reason behind it would probably be because of something I did (i.e. admin abuse), so I would take full responsibility.

Any other reason you should be admin:Should probably add a “s” to the end of reason because I have numerous reasons as to why I think I should and could be a good admin for the community. First of all, one quality I possess which people like to see in an admin is being around quite often. According to my skial stats page, I was first seen 4 years ago on 09/25/2011, and even to this day I’ve been playing on skial servers exclusively when I’m pubbing. Another quality which people like to see in an admin is someone who is level headed and calm. I’d like to think I’m a calm person, but I can also get excited when I’m enjoying myself, and by being a calm person by nature, I’d like to think I can make appropriate, reasonable and ethical decisions when necessary. In addition, I don’t get mad in pubs because I find it very casual and honestly fairly easy, compared to what I’m used to, which brings me to my next point.
I’ve been playing in top level competitive highlander, 6s, and 4s TF2 in UGC for a total of 11 seasons worth and I’d like to think my experience from playing competitive can carry over to being an admin in the sense of decision making. To further elaborate on this, I have an easy time differentiating hackers from legitimate players, griefers from non-griefers. There’s also the occasional professional competitive players who decide to stomp on poor skial gamers, whom I’ve usually heard of or recognized, and get accused of being a hacker. Furthermore, I’ve also previously had the privilege and experience of being an admin on the famous YouTuber, Shibby2142’s pub server. Before I played on skial almost exclusively, I gamed my life away on his server, and received no complaints of my admining. However, I do not have admin anymore on his server because of the transition I made from his community to the skial community and frankly, I don’t even know if his server still exists, or if it’s even populated anymore.
Another reason I think I would make a quality admin is because of the friends I’ve made, and still continue to make on skial servers. I have a group tag on my friendslist named, “SKIAL REGULARS” and the server which I tend to regularly play on is the Skial Badwater US server. Almost every time I go onto that server, I always see and recognize the regulars there, and in return the regulars also recognize me. I think there are several reasons why I tend to find myself returning to play on that server for hours straight, over and over again, and rarely getting fatigued. I believe the first thing which keeps me interested is solely due to what the players and community has to offer. I’m confident that if you ask the regulars of Skial Badwater US as to why they find themselves returning to play on the server, their answer will either because, “it’s fun”, or the second being “the community”. More than half the time, I hear the regulars of the server just communicating over voice chat about random things such as their day, their wives (Magno), and among other silly things. In addition to the players, the quality of the pub itself is superb, as in, some of the people who play there are actually pretty good for pubbers, some of which who have never touched competitive TF2. Often times however, I also do recognize players from the competitive community who decide to pubstomp which is definitely nice to see.
I’d like to finish off by saying that there have been numerous occasions where there are griefers or hackers on the skial servers and I find myself unable to do anything about it due to the !votemenu system for banning someone being very unreliable as it requires a significant amount of players to vote, “yes”. Some of my friends know that I have a skial admin on my friendslist by the name of Sarcasm. In light of this, they message me, seeing if I can contact him in order to do something about it. Often times I find myself sending reports to Sarcasm directly to handle these problems quickly and efficiently, instead of creating a thread on the skial forums. As a result with my overall availability and activity among the skial servers, I’ve decided to send in an application formally in hopes that I can become a skial admin, in order to moderate the servers when necessary and to keep the community clean and friendly.
