Introduction:
Hi! I am SaplingArcher, I love games like Minecraft and DnD, and I love cuteness! I also enjoy making people happy and helping them!

Being an assistant in the town of Sterling, I enjoy inviting players to the town, teaching them how to play, and otherwise just building roads and such as the town expands!

Have you ever held a staff position on MeepCraft or another server? If yes, please describe your experience. If no, please explain why you are interested in a position on MeepCraft.
Yes, I used to be staff on a Minecraft server divided into sub servers. Unlike Meepcraft, you would be staff on a single sub server - or sometimes multiple - instead of the entire server.
Originally, I was moderator on the Creative sub server, where I would give players nicks (using color code formatting), ranks (Judging builds and checking time to see if they could get a rank-up), and otherwise moderating chat - both private messages and general chat.
Eventually, I had gotten Mod and then Admin on the plots sub server. A gentler sub server, I had to view other's applications and accept or deny them, aswell as interview the applicants in a skype group message (Discord was ether not invented or was unknown to us back then.)
I had also gotten Helper on the Bending subserver at one point.

Which staff position(s) are you applying for / interested in? Please select all that apply.
Mod

Why should you be considered for the above staff position(s)?
I was requested to apply by a current moderator. Beyond that, I have been active, helpful, and friendly to the members of the community - answering questions, and having nice conversations with friends.

What are your weaknesses?
I have been known to get hyperfixated before and burn out as a result. This had happened on the aforementioned Minecraft server, and had tried desperately to not burn out although i had already mentally checked out - even getting helper on the bending sub server just to try to retain interest.

To prevent this, I believe taking breaks is necessary in the long term. I may periodically take a day or more off in order to play other games so that I do not burn out again.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know:

Introduction:
Hey guys! I am Candy, Kassidy, Candy_Master (any of those work). I've been on Meepcraft a while, I've always been a hard core gamer if you know me (kidding). Alongside of minecraft, I do do stuff outside of it. I greatly enjoy reading, playing sports, clothes shopping, eating food especially sweets, and overall being outside especially since I grew up in Canada, there's just so many choices of outside activities to do. Overall I'm an extroverted/introverted mix which means I enjoy being around people and helping them in real life and on the server. It is why I have stuck around so long, the community is honestly what makes Meep special, and I've definitely made friends on here, it just sucks everyone is spread so across the world.

Have you ever held a staff position on MeepCraft or another server? If yes, please describe your experience. If no, please explain why you are interested in a position on MeepCraft.
Over my years of hardcore gaming I have had the opportunity to be staff not only on other servers but also on Meep. On other servers I've had the experience of moderating, but not personally on Meep, and on Meep I have been Architect a few times, but I believe I have also been around long enough to know majority of the rules on the server itself.

Which staff position(s) are you applying for / interested in? Please select all that apply.
Mod, Architect

Why should you be considered for the above staff position(s)?
I love building overall on Meep, and I do it for myself, but I'd also like to contribute builds to Meep especially with it starting to gain more players. It makes me want to be involved and try to help Meep get back into it's groove with all the updates, and changes coming to meep. I strongly think I have the ability to create some pretty builds for the server efficiently. Along side of being an Architect I'd like to try my hand in moderating for the server as well, as I already enjoy helping players around and to help plan and contribute ideas to benefit Meep. Being a moderator will allow me to help others more deeply and well versed rather then as a regular player.

What are your weaknesses?
Like everyone, I have personal weakness. In the past I have had issues of working with teams, but I believe I have grown out of the struggle and matured especially with the current staff team being great people and easy to work with. I also know in the past I have also struggled to be committed to staying on the team due to my life being of flurry of activities, and school. I plan to fully commit this time, especially with forcing myself this new years to make resolutions which I have never done (outside of being forced to in elementary), and one of those resolutions is to be more committed in anything I decide to set my mind to.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know:
I don't have any specify playing times. I am in PST but since the entirety of my sleep schedule is wonky you can see me on anywhere from 7am PST - 3am PST. Also I do have the ability to build in other styles, but I just love building in stone brick and terracotta!

(Also built: Old town spawn, clicker homes, edited projects, ctf maps, infected, laser)

When did you join Meepcraft? November 3, 2018

Introduction: Hey all! My name is CaliWahine, and for all of you who think you don’t know how to pronounce my name, don’t feel bad because half of it isn’t even English. “Cali” represents the fact that I was born and raised in Southern California and lived there almost all my life until about a year ago. “Wahine” (pronounced “wA-hEE-nAy”) is the Hawaiian word for “girl/woman”; right after high school I applied and was accepted to the University of Hawaii and lived there for about four years before moving back to California.
Throughout my travels, I’ve seen and met many people and had so many great experiences. I love the water, I can’t get enough of the water, so living on an island was a dream come true for me. I’ve done some wild stuff like snorkeled with manta rays and swam in a place called “Shark Cove”.

For me, my favorite thing is being around people. No matter what the activity, I love spending quality time with people who mean a lot to me and getting to know or meet new ones. I game a lot, sometimes too much, in my spare time, but I also like to get out of the house and do other meaningful activities. I currently also volunteer at the local humane society and am working on becoming a mentor there to new volunteers.

I’m currently on-track to graduate in two weeks (eek!) and will then have a Bachelor of Science in Organizational Leadership. From there, I have no clue what will happen, if some great job is just around the corner or if the work from home thing will be my life for the foreseeable future. Stay tuned!

Why should you be Helper? There are many characteristics that overall comprise a great Helper on Meep from what I’ve seen in the time I’ve been here, and they are equally relevant across the board. A great Helper needs to be relatable, kind, authoritative, understanding, inspiring, and impart wisdom. Comparing myself to these qualities, I feel confident about my application for Helper because of the quality of experience gained in such a short time in this community.

A relatable person is someone that gets along with and can easily flow into any conversation with a wide variety of people, which I do easily almost every day. I meet new people, chat about a variety of topics, and don’t think that anyone is afraid or intimidated to come talk to me about anything. Even as the mayor of my town, I’m always there to chat with fellow Mayors about things happening in their towns and what might be stressing them out, just because you don’t know someone isn’t an excuse to avoid them or know nothing about them. The people I see on all the time I that I don’t know I try to make an extra effort to get to know and build those bridges for the future.

Having a Helper that is authoritative but also understanding are unique qualities that not everyone has. This looks like someone who has no problem reading you the Meep rules and muting you for blatantly breaking them or defying them, but also wants to know the situation and how everyone got to where they are. A staff that just flies in to punish people is not the kind of person this or any other server needs and is not the type of person I would ever aspire to be in or out of Meep. Everything relating to communication boils down to context, so until you ask some questions and fully understand the situation from everyone’s point of view, you can never utilize your authority appropriately. I never intend or aspire to be a staff or even a person that operates in this way, I do and will always try to get to the bottom of a situation and emerge with as little collateral damage as possible.

Finally, being a person that inspires others and imparts wisdom is something I aspire to do and be in my own personal life and would love to be able to bring that to Meep on a larger scale. I think inspiring people to live and think outside of their comfort zone (i.e. join the Discord and be more sociable, or participate in an event they thought they’d never do) is something I thoroughly enjoy because I know how much it sucks to see all the good times pass you by and wish you had participated even a little bit. The imparting of wisdom, in my opinion, also ties back to being an understanding person as well. I strongly believe that every day we live on this earth we should learn something new, whether that be about games, life, friendships, etc. A day lived without something learned is almost a day wasted, and even on days where I think I learned nothing, it turned out I learned quite a lot. Being someone that can be there for others, listen and understand where they are coming from, and teach new things is someone I currently am and aspire to continue being everywhere I go.

What are your weaknesses? My biggest weakness is that sometimes I tend to allow myself to get provoked easily by others that I think are just looking for a reaction or rise out of me. In retrospect, I realize where things went wrong and when I should have shut it down sooner, but sometimes in the moment I get caught up with either trying to get through to someone or trying to make myself heard and lose sight of the bigger picture. This is something I’m currently working on, and plan to work on as much as I can. I don’t think this is specific to Meep, as I’ve seen it happen in my personal life as well.

Another weakness in terms of my application, not so much me personally, is the amount of time I’ve been on Meep. I have been here barely a month and compared to people that have been here 3+ years, that time is miniscule. I completely understand why people would down-vote this based on time alone, but in that month, I’ve done so much on the server and for the community. I’ve made a great group of friends, been staff in a prior town, started one of the most successful towns in the 23 days since its establishment and so much more. I plan to be around for a while and am currently on when most mods or admin aren’t online let alone on Meep, so I think that would be a positive addition to the community.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: I just want the best for this community, and don’t want to continue to sit idly by when I feel there’s more I can do to help the community grow and evolve from where it is now. Regardless of what happens, I’ll still be around and helping in any and every way possible. It’s the quality of life, not the quantity, and I think that even if the numbers never go back to what they used to be, we can still have a rockin’ time here with the amazing people we see online every day.

Introduction: Hello everyone! My name is Jack but many of you may know me as stevie fiveo 56. Now that it is summer I thought it would be a great time to apply for architect because I am not as busy and on meepcraft a lot. I have been playing meep for like 5 or so years. My hobbies include Running, snowboarding, coding and 3D design. In the future I think I would like to pursue mechanical engineering, because I am very hands on and love to tinker with anything and everything. which leads me into why I like mine craft so much, I love messing with different types of materials and seeing what works and what doesn't. I have always loved to build, it lets my creativity flow allows you to express a different world every single build. And creating an environment that your build is based around.

Why should you be Architect? I believe I am well qualified for Architect because of my vast knowledge of building styles and my creativity. I would love to help with any ongoing or upcoming projects with meepcraft. My strengths are that I am a team player and that is really important to big server builds and projects, because you have to work together and finish on time. Also I am able to build many styles and I keep learning more every build I create! Everyone has weaknesses and different strengths, Here are a few of my weaknesses, If something doesn't quite look right, I tend to give up on it and am very picky how tasks get completed. I have a lot of experience with world-edit, and voxelsniper. I also love to build older styles of builds similar to the server’s "style.” I love building steampunk and modern although I am not the best at it, every build I create I get better and better and learn new techniques and styles.

What builds have you completed on the server and where might they be located? tirael: 7238, 81, -3117
Embassy: 3824, 64, 4682

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: Thanks for taking the time to read this! have a good day!

How much experience do you have using Voxel and Worldedit? Advanced in World edit and proficient in Voxel sniper

When did you join Meepcraft? May 21, 2015

Introduction: Hello there! My name is Jonathan, aka, DarkKnight49x, or DK49, or Dark, which ever you prefer. At the moment, I’m 17 years old, only 3 more months until I turn 18 (that special age everyone is waiting for. I’m a senior right now in my high school, taking IB Higher level courses. I’ve already made my college applications, which I’m hoping that I get accepted into my dream school. Although Psychology is the career I am to major in, I also love art. I love to draw, as seen as my profile avatar. I’ve been drawing since 7th grade and have improved over the years, after looking at pictures and copying them for some time. I love creating my own dreams and imaginations into a piece of paper, whether in description or in a drawing. I’m mainly a quiet, shy guy if you’d meet me in life. This might seem a bit silly since of how I talk at times in chat and play around. I have improved a bit socially which has been a major help, not only to myself, but to others, since everyone needs someone to talk to through desperate times. If you get to know me, you’ll understand who I truly am, an awkward, yet lighthearted person. I’m also considered a native Spanish speaker, which benefits others and myself when I try to get my point across to those who speak Spanish in Florida.

Why should you be Helper? One of the main questions of this app: why should I become helper? Well, there are a couple of reasons. These are the reasons stated in my last app, but I have improved on them.
• Experience: Being almost a year and a half on MeepCraft, I have learned much more about commands, even memorizing some. And, although being somewhat of a staff member on a different server, I have learned some commands Prism has itself. Whenever a new Meeper, or even a well known Meeper asks a question, I try to answer based on my knowledge of the server. I can certainly say that I myself have been under the same conditions people have when they don’t know the answer to a question, and over time, I’ve learned more about Meep. Sometimes, people don’t see when I answer someone’s question, due to others answering them before me and I can post what I say due to someone already saying it. However, when someone asks a question in normal chat, or in separate worlds, or even in the towns I am in, I calmly answer their questions. Plus, being a town staff member for the towns I am in have contributed a good amount to my knowledge of MeepCraft. I still continue to learn more about Meep itself and hope it will contribute to my efforts in helping others.
• Work Ethics: Due to having worked as a librarian as well as worked with my father in his work, I have learned several points. I have to be responsible, take in responsibility for my work and get the job done correctly. If I can’t get it done on time, I seek assistance, or continue striving for completion. I’ve also learned that others should always be respected and helped, no matter what, even if you have a grudge against them. I care about everyone, and if anyone needs help, I’d gladly lend my hand to them and pull them up from the depths of the ocean.
• Dedication: Since the day I’ve joined MeepCraft, I’ve been as active as I have can. If I couldn’t log on, there were reasons, such as personal reasons, school, family, etc. I love Meep and its community. Every time I log in, I try to keep a “happy face” on, even at my hard times. I continue to support Meep and the decisions that either are ongoing or upcoming. I won’t stop believing in Meep and its community.
• Involvement: Involvement hasn’t been that much of a problem for me. I try to talk in chat and have fun at times. When a serious topic comes up, I either try to stop it, or notify a staff member as quickly as I can. Sometimes, even I try to calm the person down to stop what he/she does. I try to be as kind as possibly in Meep, not just only in the server itself, but as well in Teamspeak and Forums. I try to be as active as possible In TS and help anyone who comes on if they require assistance. I’ve gotten use to TS and have been active lately, enjoying time with others. Although I don’t participate much on forums, I look around at interesting topics or important threads, in which I mainly participate.
• Performance: Well, as I said before in my original application, I’m not perfect. I do have my imperfections with what I do, how I do it, and overall, its outcome and how my actions are accepted by other. Yet, everyone isn’t perfect in what they do. We have our own problems, in which we aim to correct or even go beyond what we choose to do. I will admit, I have had problems, yet I’ve tried to keep my performance at its best height. No matter what, I will continue to perform at my best as much as possible, and continue performing better and better over time.

What are your weaknesses? Weakness? People would sometimes say they don’t have weakness’, but in all due honesty, I do.
• Procrastination: One of my worst enemies. Although I have improved on this weakness, I at times continue to procrastinate, in school and on MeepCraft. Yet normally, I try to get the work done quickly before its due. Meep, however, would be different. I would try to put Meep first on my to-do list yet I know I will procrastinate at times. But this can improve.
• Maturity: This I have improved on. Yet, at times, I participate on some little things that would be considered immature, such as sexual references. Yet I can improve quickly over time, as if I had two faces. Which leads into personality.
• Personality: This one is a tough one. In real life, I’m an introvert person, not talking to many people, only making conversations with my friends. Yet when on Meep, I change quickly, from a mature, quiet, caring person, to a immature, derpy, social Meeper. Although I do take some maturity from my real life self and apply it to Meep, yet at times, I continue to be immature. I can change personalities when topics get serious, which is fairly simple but at times, I just stay socially active.
• Emotional: I’ve had to state this weakness once again. I have changed a bit on this, due to leaving one of my best friends behind as well the certain dreams that I know will not come true, I continue to get emotional at times, When remembering about a certain event, or getting yelled at, my mood completely changes. I’m usually am able to control myself quickly and am pretty sure that this wouldn’t occur on Meep but who knows. I sometimes can hide it, yet that just hurts me a bit more, especially when I act happy all the times.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: I believe that is all really. I understand that being helper on this lovely server is a huge responsibility, and I can’t ignore this position, just like my job, just like my schoolwork. You yourself will decide whether I get am prepared to be a part of the team or not. You can put all your trust in me and know that I will provide as much assistance as I can give, until the ends of time. Even if I don’t get accepted, I’ll continue doing such good deeds and reach for a much better performance. If you have any concerning question, please do not hesitate to ask. I will gladly respond to you. Thank you very much for taking your time to read this. I truly do appreciate it.

When did you join Meepcraft? September 19th 2015 on forums and January 9th 2015 in game.

Introduction: Hello! My name is Anya Ward, I live in Midland, Michigan.
I am in 10th grade, I'm currently homeschooling. I have been homeshooled my whole life, I've enjoyed it very much. I am learning a little bit of Spanish as well. Hobbies : Singing, I like most music genres. You may see me on TeamSpeak singing with my buddies. I love to cook and make delicious meals with my siblings. One of my favorite things to bake is ultimate chocolate cake! Yum! I also like to play Meepcraft with my brother (Sharkey1708) and sister (Purplemma). I also like to draw a bit, I'm not the best but its average. I am very active on Forums and in game. Not as much in TeamSpeak but I hope that can change soon.

Why should you be Helper? I want to be a helper because I am patient, mature and serious when I need to be. I am a very dedicated person so when I start a project I don't stop until its done. However I am not so serious that I am unapproachable. I am very easy going and I don't get upset easily. I respect other peoples rank, religion and overall accepting of people. I love helping players in /g and TeamSpeak and I hope to do more for the community very soon.

What are your weaknesses? I can't say I don't have any weaknesses because every human does. I am not perfect, and that's completely fine with me. I am too selfless at times, and if I get upset in real life then I probably can't talk on TS. But my friends always cheer me up when I need it. Another thing is that I can't stand players having a hard time with the server, I try to help them as best as I'm able to do. Another thing Is I get embarrassed easily, but I don't think that matters very much. xD

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: I came here to make friends, and I did. This server has impacted my life, to try harder and go for my dreams. I can't say how much you all mean to me, I appreciate all of you.
Thankyou for your time reading my application!

Introduction: Hello,
As some of you may know I'm Candy or Kassidy, either or works. I've been around Meep for a long of period of time, as a citizen, donator, and as a Architect. In the past, I became inactive due to the start of school, and just a bit of a busy life style which ended up in me taking a break from the team. Now enough of that, more about me in real life. I am actually quite a shy person who doesn't like standing out, athletic, artistic, and overall I like to think myself as creative. When playing sports, I will participate fully even if I do not know what I'm doing except when it comes to basketball. I just have a general dislike for basketball, but any other sport I love playing. The only thing I'm actively doing right now is dance, and horse back riding - this doesn't take up a lot of time. I am as well one of those people when I get to know someone or get into someone, my quiet and shy side disappears because when interested in something, I show full well that I am. Although towards my love of art, I cannot sit still for a long period of time without feeling bored and I start fidgeting, and this all sometimes happens when building on MineCraft. My love of animals is also huge, I have 10 pets (not including fish) that are a range, but I wish I had one more - a horse- which a few people know. That pretty sums up what I like doing and who I am.

Why should you be Architect? After past experience of being an Architect, you will know once you resign you will miss it. I know I missed being and Architect the moment I resigned. Architect may seem like an easy job, but in reality it isn't. You may go through building the same of something till it's too the likings of others, and it has to be good enough to be displayed. With that I believe I have the talent to fulfill the requests, have the details, ideas, and creativity needed to make builds. I want to contribute more to the server, but also do something I have an interest in doing. I also have past experience that is nice to have when being an Architect which makes me a stronger candidate for becoming an Architect. Overall I feel I know what to do and how to do it.

What builds have you completed on the server and where might they be located? In past a lot of builds were created in the "Architect Creative" world, because that's where I spent my past time on the new MeepCraft. With this most of my builds are lost over the lands of that world, although there are a few out there.
Some of them are: Candy Land (Infected Map), the tropical map (Ctf, took over from Alien_Venom had started), Boomo spawn/Lobby/map, the building for Summrs head museum (/pwarp heads), and a few other houses spread out along Meep. I as well contributed to a variety of others build when asked/needed, and helped out around. (spawns, maps). Also I am really sorry for the lack of images.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: Although I think I am a quality builder, I do need to work on a lot of stuff. For one, when building larger buildings, I either find it difficult to complete, or build what I had planned in my head. I also of a small tendency to need a break during times when school gets too drastic with work (mostly toward end of terms) which will cause me to go inactive a little bit. Styles, and details can sometimes be a weakness when my mind is blank, but usually that can be fixed by looking at ideas on the internet.

How much experience do you have using Voxel and Worldedit? Overall I have a good understanding of World Edit. I have been using this tool for around 3 years, on Meep and on my private server(which I use to test) and I know well how to use most of the commands. Although with Voxel I need a lot of work and understanding towards the tool. I find Voxel more confusing; I guess it is because I wasn't introduced to it until later last year. I do have a good concept with both tools even though I know one better than the other, I can learn.

When did you join Meepcraft? Early 2014

Introduction: Hello everyone! I'm sure about 99% of you know me but i'll start off saying that my name is Eddy. I'm just your average 15 year old kid spending his time on meep. I'm a sophomore in highschool which is nice and easy since I can manage to keep good grades. I love to skateboard whenever I can aswell as hopping onto teamspeak to talk to my friends and the community. I joined meep around early 2014 and have enjoyed every second of it. I was a staff member before (Helper for 3 months, Mod for 5 months and SuperMod for 3 weeks) and pretty much know my way around. Sadly, I was forced to resign due to issues I had going on personally in real life. I have a brother who plays Meep aswell so it's pretty cool to have him around. I enjoy making new friends and getting to know people so if you're ever on teamspeak come talk to me. When I grow up I want to become a Police officer because I think it's cool.

Why should you be Helper? Why should I be a helper? Good question. For one, I'm very active on all aspects of the server: (Teamspeak, Forums and In-Game). I'm already experienced being staff so I won't need any training, if anything I can help out the newer Helpers. I know prism as if it were my best friend since I used to stay up at nights learning more about it. I feel like as if I have a strong connection with the community and know a lot of people. I have knowledge of commands server-wide so I can pretty much help people out. I spend most of my time on the server so i'm pretty dedicated. I made a mistake by Resigning last time and I realize that know and I would like to have another chance at Staff.

What are your weaknesses? From time to time, I can get a bit frustrated on teamspeak and rage. This shouldn't be that big of an issue since it's something I can control.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know:

How old are you? 12

Location: Bay Area, CA

How many hours per day do you play MeepCraft? (weekdays) 1-4

How many hours per day do you play MeepCraft? (weekends) 1-6

Introduction: Hello Meepers! It's Zoe. I am a 12 year old girl from California. I enjoy mostly all sports, crafts, and Minecraft. I played basketball for my school team and despite having been the smallest, I was the captain of the team last year. I also play soccer. I started playing competitively when I was 8, and have been playing ever since. I have been the captain a total of 5 times for my soccer team, so I have learned how to lead people, and help them grow. I am on a “U12” or “under 12” team, which means I am playing “up” and am older than the majority of the players, so they look up to me and see me as a role model. Even though I am not older than most of the players on Meepcraft, I still feel like I am a role model. I show people rules, help them with commands, and work through fights/disputes with other players.
During my time as Helper, I feel I have become very well-known throughout the community. I talk in global conversations, and love chatting with players in /pm. I have handled 700+ Modreqs, and each one, I’ve tried to make sure the customer gots what he/she needed. I have been helper since May 17, 2015, and I have loved every day of answering peoples questions. It really gives a new meaning to playing when you become Staff–there’s more to the game. Sure, we don’t get as much time to ourselves, but I’m loving playing more than I ever have before! I get "thank you for helping me” and “Thank you for answering my question” all the time, and I love the feeling of people telling me that I did well; that I helped them.

Why you should be Mod? I have been on Meep since May 24th, 2015 now, to some people that’s a lot, to others… Not so much. I’ve taken the time to learn commands throughout my time on Meepcraft. It started out in Boomo. I played Boomo for about 4 months–During that time, I learned /leave and how to use local chat. Next, I found a town. Here, I learned the commands of towny and was inspired to make a town, as well as learning how to use /g. From there, I donated, got Premium, and started doing a lot of Wild. I made some friends and learned /msg and /r, from there, I found forums– ah, forums, I love forums. I love reading and posting and having great debates and conversations now, but when I came on for the first time, I went strait to “Staff Applications” I read all of those and soon started commenting. I never new that you applied to get Staff! I new that with all of my accumulated knowledge, I actually has a slight chance! I found out what Teamspeak was, and loved it (as some/most of you know, I am very talkative!) I love socializing with other players. It makes my time on Meepcraft all the more memorable.
I love doing things with other people. Sometimes, I help people on a Modreq, and a month later, they start a convocation with me. I love how they feel so free to start sharing experiences/encounters with me. I’m not a Big Scary Staff Monster, I’m a player, that wants to help other players. Becoming Mod would help me do that even more successfully.
I use private message, global, world, local, teamspeak, Skype, and forums, all to communicate, share, teach, and learn with people. When I first became helper, people didn’t know me well. Now, I feel the majority of the players know, and like me! I feel like they're comfortable around me. They can talk to me, they can play with me (if I have time) they can have fun with me. And I love that, above anything else on Meep. I love that we are a community.
You go on other servers, and they spam, swear, caps, and there are no staff, much less social staff! Here on Meep, we trust each other. We know one-another. For the most part, staff are helpful and fun. Meepcraft is special. Being on Meepcraft is a privilege. Being a part of the community here, is a privilege. For me, being a Staff member is a greater one. When there are issues, the staff are there to help! We answer questions, sort out problems, and more importantly, we connect with the community. By helping one player, its a domino effect. They can help someone else, and the knowledge that was shared with one player, spreads. Players helping players, helping players—everyone cares. That’s why I fell in love with Meep. That’s why I want to give back.
Being Mod, for me, is helping a greater amount of people. I can still help other players, but I can also help other Helpers. These 4 months, I have gathered even more commands, techniques, and tactics to help then ever before. I know commands, how to communicate with players, how to stay up to date, how to teleport players to their friends plot, how to find out who stole what, and who ran what command, as well as much, much more!
I believe I should be Mod because I care for the community, and I will help it become a stronger one by teaching, by learning, by solving problems, and answering questions.

What are your weaknesses? Activity- One of the things that came up in my last application was how active I was. I realize now that I am not as active as some players. However, when I am in-game, I make sure that people know it. I help people whether or not they filed a Modreq. Now I know, it’s not all about piling up Modreqs. It’s about the customers. Its about their experience. I cannot say that I will magically be playing 8 hours a day like some people manage, but I will be making an effort to be spending my time more productively.
Age/Maturity- Most of you know, by now, that I am not, in fact, 13. I am actually 12. I was inspired greatly by MeGustaYou’s Helper application, when everyone told her “you are so mature, and your application is so detailed and fun to read” I knew then, I couldn’t keep lying. I took all of my strength and confessed, fearing being outcasted, or even demoted. But, I was surprised by what I got. Yes, people are still a bit shaken, but they accept me. They understand. I didn’t understand. I thought lying would help me, but in truth… It only hurt me. I felt terrible lying, so I knew I had to let people know. I was told “you are very mature for a 13 year old” and I felt so happy, so confident because I was actually 11. That meant, what? I was extremely mature for an 11 year old? Maybe. I am working on fixing some maturity issues, but I still enjoy having a good time with all people on Meep, so sometimes I might be loud, I might be crazy. But when it’s time to get down to business, I can control myself.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: I did mention in my last application that I didn’t know Prism very well. I have been working with other staff members to improve my knowledge of Prism. I feel that I know it well enough to help others with what I know now, although I know there is still more to learn.

Please leave a reason for your vote! Thanks!

Introduction: I'm starting to run out of ways to introduce myself if I'm completely honest with you. Most of you know that my name is shain, I'm a sound designer, singer, and, most importantly, an actor. I go to Loyola University in Chicago studying for a BA in Theatre with a minor in Musical Theatre and Women And Gender Studies. Talk to me about anything related to theatre, sound, or music and we'll be best friends. A summary about my personality: I am a passionate and driven person who still loves to goof around and have fun.

This server has absolutely has made a large impact on my life. I've made long time friends. I've learned so much about myself as a professional. I have been prepared for many aspects of my life in the "real world" and have even used my experience here in an application to get my currently job. No matter how much I try, I can't stay away. I love the server and I especially love the staff who I consider to be some of my closest friends.

Why you should be Mod? I feel as though I am performing better than I ever did. The first time I was helper I was so high strung about messing up or being in trouble I acted like a robot (I'm sure Castro remembers how obnoxious I was). I recall Deinen telling me to learn how to manage myself and make decisions myself. So I did. In fact, I learned so well I worked my way to supermod to manage other staff members. I believe I did really well in the position, but there was only so much we could do at the time. We were still experimenting with different ways to get tasks done, but none of them were successful. I began to become irritable so I left the position in hopes that someone else could replace me and do a better job.

The second time around, I worked my way up to mod but I constantly had my eye on supermod. I was overly competitive and created a negative atmosphere around myself. I also was incredibly frustrated with the fact absolutely nothing could get done. No updates or development could occur. So I left again.

After my extended break, I came back to see the staff in performing the best I have ever seen. New tech have been hired that remain active, higher staff constantly add things to the server, and, probably the coolest addition, the trello. I applied again and I've never been so happy to be apart of the staff again. I'm now working as a team and not for myself. My modreq count isn't as high as I'd hope but it's not by any means unreasonable or displaying a lazy conduct. The staff is just so incredibly efficient these days that modreqs are gone almost as quickly as their sent in.

I am looking to become a moderator again because I not only have extensive experience doing so, but I also hope to be apart of the people who can make a bigger difference here. I want to be able to handle suggestions and ban appeals. I want to be able to monitor hackers easily. I have so much more to offer this staff as a moderator. I want to make a bigger difference and I want to take on more responsibility. Everyone knows I can and well perform well in this position.

What are your weaknesses? Here are my weaknesses, which are the same as they were on my helper application:

1. I don't like asking for help. I like people to know I'm competent and I don't like people knowing I'm vulnerably in any way.

2. I'm sometimes too honest. I can hurt people's feelings without realizing it and just kind of say rude things that I don't realize are rude. Honestly something I've been working on my entire life but I'm getting better. Just don't take me too seriously all the time.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: I've been helper for a month now, and the only reason I didn't apply sooner was because of my trip to Italy. I wanted to make absolutely certain that, upon returning, I got the hang of the way this staff functions. I well believe I understand that and know how to properly contribute.

Thanks for reading this. I look forward to hearing all of you.

Introduction​

My name is Dan.

I’ve started using computers at the age of 6 when my father introduced me to a really old IBM computer. He helped me use Task Manager, basic command lines and flash games.

I’ve played flash games on and on with my past computer. I also had a PS2, with all the games in the Rachet and Clank series. Love that series.

I’ve first got into Minecraft in the summer of 2011 I believe. I started to hear about a new online game that was blockly, retro and overall heck of a lot fun. I played around in Classic, then moving on to multiplayer servers. I used to play on many Classic servers. Applying for Op once in a while on servers I felt like needed my services the most. I’ve had one point Op and Moderator on 23 different servers at once, partitioning my free time in 5th grade playing and moderating.

Certainly, that wasn’t very efficient, however I have had a lot of valuable experience moderating and caring for specifically Minecraft servers. It has been quite a Minecraft journey over these years, and I still have the dedication for my desire for everything Minecraft.

I’ve first discovered MeepCraft in the middle age of MeepNetworks, the golden era of MeepCraft in my honest opinion. There were new players galore, spawn thriving with random drop parties and the global chat filled with auction wars and such a competitive economy, and who could ever forget the sprawl of PvPers in the great terrarium. Truly a great period of Minecraft excellence.

I had a nation of Opulence and was God Emperor of Luxury. I had quite more than 3 million back then, and was very affluent in general

I’ve played on MeepCraft for a good chunk of 7 months, then went inactive until October of 2014 where I started to use TeamSpeak, and started to open up more.


This isn’t my first application for helper, as I had a interview before and was only declined to due to a slight lack of maturity as I was still a wee 7th grader, by one staff reviewer. I’m now a high school sophomore, and I believe I have built up my skills and strengths, to tackle on the job and responsibilities of being Helper.

Why I should be given a chance at helper​

I’ve learned many things from moderating Minecraft servers. One must have patience and dedication to be a helper. Without being kind, helpful and understanding, the whole moderation fails to be helpful.

It is important to answer questions, but going further to demonstrate your explaination and teaching how to solve other questions the player might have is the extra initiative in helping as a moderator. There really is a personal satisfaction when I help a player. They might be confused and mad while I calmly try to help them. When people get stuck, and I help them it truly brings joy and happiness to my heart knowing that they are helped.

The player base is ever-growing and it has been a amazing set of these years, MeepCraft standing up to the test of time with it’s never-ending brilliance and concept. I am confident that I will be dedicated and willing to spare most of my free time in helping ones in need, old players who returned, etc.

I have also very patient customer service skills. I have over 400 chats in the Xbox Ambassador service program. I have quite the customer service and social skills to tackle on a big towny server like MeepCraft.

One of my areas of specialty is bringing experiences and understanding to other players situations. I will try my best to understand and to suit players with different backgrounds, racial profiles and cultures.

I will always be calm in administrative situations and try to help the best I can. I have specific experience in nearly most administration command systems and will use the commands to the fullest extent for the good of the server and player base.

As a helper, it is simply easy to catch rule breakers. With Report a Player forum section it is easily for anyone to do a “Citizen’s Arrest” as to say. But with the privilege of Helper commands, I will not abuse, however use them to benefit the server, not to take myself to a higher degree nor take any other non staff to a lower degree.

Also another reason for a chance of Helper is my ability to keep calm while debating, respecting other’s opinions. I like to debate on the forums and my ability to think deeper and more cognitively will help in making hard and quicker, more informed decisions while administrating on MeepCraft.

Being staff isn’t about the power. It’s the privilege to help even further than reporting with Report a Player, it’s to set a standard for other staff and to give a good example to the server itself. With the additional tools and commands, I can be able to find griefers, stealers and x-rayers in MeepCraft. I have quite the experience in finding dupers and x-rayers from administrating many Minecraft faction and towny servers.

Weaknesses​

Skype: I simply don’t use skype as much as any other player might. I have it and fully accessable, but I usually use TeamSpeak for basis of all communications. I find it to be too clunky and interfering with my sound and general communication.


Straightforward & Crude: I will be very straightforward and crude at times. This might help, however in certain times, players might take that as a offence and might take it as a act of aggression. I do this to minimize personal bias or error. However, I do need to improve on this attitude to improve my overall friendliness.

Conclusion​

With a chance at helper, I will further help and renew our understanding of what it is to be a staff member. I will show outright dedication and righteousness for all staff members and players to follow. I will teach, love, and guide new players and all players alike as a helper, and will never try to use my powers for my own benefit or another individuals in a malicious way.


Thank you for your consideration,


Captain_Twinkies.

Introduction:

You know me as blackoak999 though many players just call me oak or black or blackoak, either ingame or on teamspeak. Players often ask me where I got my IGN. Blackoak999 came from several things. Regarding 999 I just wanted an easy number that wouldn’t be picked already. Regarding blackoak, on one level I just love trees, especially oak trees, forests, and especially old dark mossy and cool forests of any kind. Consequently, I really like the dark oak biome in minecraft. In real life I love, love, love to climb trees, jump around in the branches, and have even slept in a tree from time to time. When I lived at home with my parents I would spend a lot of time in our two acre fruit tree orchard, up in a tree or under one, usually reading a book. At other times we would go camping or backpacking in the Californian Sierras. When I was about 14 I started spending the days by myself in deep forests, fishing all day, no people around, the only other big creatures being bear or cougar or deer. It’s very interesting negotiating with a predator. Surprisingly, you can convince them not to eat you if you stay calm and interact with them in a certain way. haha That always made me feel stronger afterwards. It was great catching my own trout, cooking them right away, and eating them just after I caught them.

Later I got into deer hunting for the same reasons above, but a level above trout fishing. Deer hunting requires even more patience. Sometimes you don’t get a deer, that’s why they call it hunting. lol But I think wild food is the best possible. In deer hunting I was taught never to miss and make the animal suffer; if you can’t do that don’t take the shot. I use that philosophy ingame and in city-life too. I make sure I can do a thing before I do it, but sometimes you just have to take the chance.

If you didn’t already know, I am married, I’m 27 and I have a son who just turned nine. Yes, I had a kid early, but luckily my wife and I could afford him. It’s a bit easier when you live in a small town; some expenses are less. I know I’m pretty lucky to live in a nice house and already have most of the things people want. That’s one of the reasons why, most of the time, I feel like I should help people. This is true ingame and in real life. Sometimes, because I am helpful, people think I’m a pushover. Don’t think this.

I work as a writer, mostly non-fiction so far. I have written several children’s books, and hope to have one illustrated soon. Don’t ask me about the non-fiction, you would be bored to tears. Ok, maybe not, but I’m here to decompress from all that writing.

I’ve been playing minecraft for a long time - almost from the beginning of it being announced as a new sandbox. It’s such an interesting environment to explore - sometimes I think this is the beginning of virtual reality, except that right now it has huge grains or blocks that are one meter.

I’ve been playing Meepcraft since November 28, 2013 which is about 10 months now. I really liked Meepcraft from the start. For the first two weeks I just played mini-games like Hunger Games, ran around spawn, and made a house in the wild that never was raided or attacked. After that I did Skyblock and made a huge multilevel island. That was fun. I still remember MistressMacabre’s awesome Sb shop. Once I had 100k I went to towny and became a resident. No, I didn’t buy a town at that point because 100k was the cost of town, but you need more than the minimum to be successful. Then I was an assistant of a town and learned the permissions; after a few months I bought a town and made Everest into the metropolis it is today.

Why should you be helper?

This is kind of corny, but I like helping people and I think I can make a difference. I’ve volunteered for different groups and organizations before, sometimes as the president, but not always. One such club was the Outdoor Adventure Club, which sounds like what it is: we would go backpacking, kayaking, skiing, on trail-walks, etc. Often I would act as a docent or helper, pointing out what the plants in the area were, their names and what they can be used for - food, fibers, or tinder. Sometimes I would teach people how to do archery. Everyone loved learning how to shoot a bow, and it was easy for me, since my dad taught me archery starting about the age of 6. I’ve been shooting a bow forever. I love teaching people how to do things. It’s one of my favorite things to do - it makes me learn even more when helping.

Like I mentioned above, Ive been playing Meep for almost 10 months now, playing in the different mini-games, in Sb, and in Towny. I’ve learned all of the permissions for Sb and towny, and I shout help to players or /msg help to players fairly often. My town Everest is a very stable town, and I can almost always handle a problem myself in Everest, either by reimbursing people for lost armor, or money, or just negotiating a peace. I often port to players to help them with a problem or question also. In a way, I’ve been acting as a helper for a while without anyone knowing it.

I think the fact that I have a young boy makes it easier for me to be patient with younger people and understand their moods and where they are coming from. My son loves to play minecraft also now, which I think is pretty funny and cool. He’s such an awesome guy, I really love him.

I never really thought I would make a staff application, since I like to play Meep and I love building and planning in Towny. But recently so many people have been asking me, “When are you submitting a staff application?” or saying, “You should join staff.” This made me rethink that position. Now I think I would like to be a join staff to help the server work. When I see people in Teamspeak or /g saying things that are disruptive I wish I could do something to help the other players. This is especially true when I do /modlist and see no staff are online. I might be inclined to volunteer at night at the time when few staff are on. I think I could time-manage that, even if it took setting my alarm to wake-up at night for a few hours.

Weaknesses:

I’m sure I have weaknesses - everyone does. They are often hard to see in yourself, which is partly the point of this question.

I will never use hacks or cheat on Meep; it would take the fun out of winning. Consequently, other staff will have to tell me how to see the signs of hacking ingame. I mean, I understand some of what hacking would look like on Meep, but I would need extra information.

I am the Mayor of the metropolis called Everest. That does tend to use some of my time. Hopefully I will still be able to visit my town an hour per day, or something. I put this here in weakness because I feel like my town might compete for time with being helper. However, I know players who are staff and have towns, so this should be manageable.

I like to play KitPvP, but again, I would never hack there. I’ve seen the hacks, been killed over and over by them, and I basically know what they are. But I would need someone to more fully explain how to find and describe them.

I never play parkour, mostly because I am usually so good at games and the interface between a keyboard and mouse are just way different and not as tight. As a result someone will have to explain problems that come up with parkour and how to deal with them. I do know people can glitch through places in parkour.

I have a lot of patience, and I don’t rage, and I don’t think I would abuse powers. Maybe a weakness would be I would look into a /modreq problem too carefully, take a while and try to see both sides? I could probably live with a little not-quite accurate punishment of troublemakers though.

If you can point-out any other weakness I will try not to take it personally. Probably I just won’t respond, so a he-said/she-said thread doesn’t happen.

Conclusion:

I know people have said this before, but I feel like Meep is a unique place. Meep can have issues like any system or group, but I’ve never seen a more interesting chat and multiplayer environment. I love the economy aspect of this server - there is such a large array of selling and trading. It’s simple and complex at the same time.

Talking to players in Teamspeak while playing makes the game-play even easier. It’s fun to talk on Teamspeak with the other players and joke around with them. I imaging this would be even more common if I am accepted to staff. I’ve been very active on Teamspeak for about a month now and I’m active on Skype. Please feel free to message me on either at any time.

I probably should have gone on meep ts 10 months ago. If I had, maybe I would have submitted a staff application a few months ago. In any case, now I feel like I know all of the towny permissions. Sometimes I even have helpers ask me what the permission commands are. I’ve read all the rules many times in forums in the rules tab - global, forums, teamspeak, parkour, PvP, Sb, and towny. Mostly I read the Meep rules for myself, but I also read the rules to help people who asked for clarification of a rule. I even know a few of the rules that are not updated in the rules list.

I can be on Meep as a staff for an extended period of time. Because of my work situation I have large periods of time I can devote. Actually, this helps me decompress from work that is very different in nature. Meep and my in real life work happen to have a good synergy.

I’ve been told that being staff makes Meep almost into a different game, a different puzzle. I think that makes sense. I think I would like that challenge.

Introduction:
Hello everyone! My name is Jack, but most people know me as jackl in-game. I was on Staff for 8-9 months before I resigned in May. I have been playing Meep for just shy of 2 years, and I have loved it all the way! When I am not on Meep, I am usually watching a documentary, hanging out with friends or working on School work. I am currently writing an essay on "The ANZAC Spirit" To win a trip to Gallipoli for the 100 year anniversary of the war New Zealand and Australian troops united in. Research ANZAC to learn more!

Why you should be Helper/Mod ?

Dedication: When I first got accepted in September 2013, I felt great about how I could help, how I can do more. In December, I was demoted from Mod to Helper, it hurt yes, but I knew that I could improve from my mistakes. During the time while I was back as a Mod, I realized that maybe it's time I left for a while due to irl things and feeling burnt out. Now after just over a month, I've realized how much I miss it, and that my TZ is very bad with Staff being asleep/away. I feel like I can dedicate myself to the TZ and the people.

Enthusiasm: During my time as Staff, I was always happy to help, and I still feel that, but sometimes it is harder without being Staff, I don't know why, I just feel like that, and I guess I just adjusted to the extra resources provided.

TimeZone: Especially today, I feel that more staff need to be on. A lot of things that are shouted are not worthy to be said on any server, and it still hasn't been resolved, I feel that I can moderate this timezone, as this will be the only time during the working week I will be on, unless irl issues pop up.

Work time: From September '13 to May '14, I worked as Staff, with only 1 break away, I worked my hardest, up until I had to go inactive due to irl problems which took a while to solve. I think this shows that I am more than capable to work within Staff, and that I won't give up easily.

Weaknesses:
*this app wasn't as long as I would have liked it to be*
Schedule- For another month I won't be sure when I can be on, but I do know that what is stated above will be where I am.
Sometimes I can get distracted from Modreqs time to time- but that's easy to fix.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, I feel that my app was a bit shorter but I think that my past actions speak for themselves as well. I feel that even if I don't actually get Staff 2nd time around, I will still try to help as much as possible, and I respect the decision as Staff, as I was once the one helping choose these applications.
