How long have you been on DFS?/When have you started playing on DFS?

Since the summer of 2013.

Which region are you from?

United States, New York area.

Which position are you applying for? (Server Moderator, Developer, Discord Moderator)

Server Moderator.

Your DFS level?

45.

Why do you want to become a staff member?

Community experiences are generally what I'm all about. DFS was a huge part of my TF2 career and undoubtedly the server of which I have logged the most hours onto. I would be honored to serve the server that began my love for Team Fortress and PC gaming as a result. I have such great memories of the server and I would love to reconnect with the community and the new members that have come into it.

Are you currently a staff member elsewhere?

Nope.

Do you have any past experiences as a staff member?

An old Minecraft server from 2013/2014. I have also just finished working in a grocery store (weird point to bring up, I understand, but hear me out), so I understand how to efficiently enforce rules and do it in the most polite ways possible.

How active are you on DFS? If you're accepted, how active can you be on DFS?

Not quite as active as I would like to be, but only because my senior year has made it difficult to maintain an active presence on any multiplayer game. I graduate on Thursday, so from there on I should have infinitely more free time on my hands.

Have you ever been banned from DFS before? If so, why?

I do not believe so, I could be wrong but I have never gotten in much trouble during my stay. If I have been I sincerely apologize from excluding it from this thread.

Include any additional personal information about yourself that could help your application thread.

I like chatting with people, and I love TF2. I've been on DFS long enough to sort of understand the "culture" of the server, the do's and don't's, the general atmosphere and how members like to play and experience the maps for themselves. I was also enrolled in the Drama department throughout all of high school, so I am well aware of how to entertain an audience. At this point, the rules of the server are practically ingrained into my mind and I couldn't figure out how to actively break them if I tried. I usually can figure out the most polite ways to tell someone: "hey you shouldn't do that," without offending them or failing to stop them.

Include a link to your Steam profile.

you joined 5 years ago but you're just a level 45? that doesn't sound right at all

either you took a huge break, are on barely, or you're lying all of which are not positive

you don't have enough time on the server to become a mod nor have i ever seen you much

if you really wanna become a mod here prove that you can actually spend time and dedicate yourself to dfs

Level 45 is unfortunately very low level for being part of the community for this long. While your moderator application is definitely solid and its good to see you have had past mod experience, I feel like your general inactivity is too much for a decent chance at becoming a mod. In my opinion, I would either come back for next year's mod openings or try your hand as a Discord mod instead.

That aside, good luck on the application!

Your level you have provided after 5 whole years is way too low. Moderators need more activity in order to actually moderate the servers, and you set a bad presence on yourself for that. It's, unfortunately, a no for my eyes.

45 is a pretty low level to be applying for staff for, especially since you claim to have been on DFS since 2013. This indicates a concerning lack of activity. Though you have addressed it to an extent, I don't personally think "I will be more active soon" cuts it - we need to know the people we're bringing into the team are consistently active enough to do their job.

Your reason for wanting to join the staff team, while heartfelt, is lacking - you can be active and engaged in a community without being a staff member and it doesn't look like you've considered what "serving" DFS entails.

What you've said in the additional information section does make you seem like a suitable candidate, but your low level casts a shadow of doubt over it.

For now, I'm going to have to say no based on your level and the inactivity that suggests. I'd suggest spending more time on DFS to raise your level, and I think you'd make a much better candidate for a moderator.
