Introduction: Hello meepcraft, I am Sackboy000, another ordinary meeper just playing on meepcraft. I started playing meep as one of my friends recommended me to. I used to only play ctf, and now here I am, having one of the highest donatable ranks, going all over the server doing things I've never even thought about doing. I've met a lot of friends along the way, from citizens all the way to ultimate, even staff. I won't say I'm even that famous on meep, but I guess you've probably heard about me before. I am mostly a maths nerd as stated by people, but I am only 14, so I probably don't know as much. In minecraft, I am good at redstone, which also relates to "maths" because of how I connect logic gates to solve problems ( honestly there are people better than me )

Why should you be Helper? Well other than the immense about of new staff nowadays, I would still like to serve the community. Well serving the community as in different aspects, I know staff are supposed to handle server stuff, like help in commands, teaching players about plugins and things, I can provide a larger scale, as to teach people in building, or somewhat other stuff. Personally I don't think them as a modreq abuse if someone did modreq those kinds of things, I would consider as they need some sort of help, which is where staff can come in.
As for helping with "staff" problems, I have helping many people in my life, not just in meep, also irl.

I also am familiar with some server commands, even though I've never been staff, I have some experiences by helping some other people or staff. As for towny commands i have never been a mayor, but I know almost every command there is to know, and almost every other existing donor commands. (I would really like to emphasize the word "almost" because sometimes staff may not know certain things, and you learn new things everyday, even as a staff.)

Well as an irl school prefect, it helps in leadership skills. I can deal with people from annoying to kind, and whichever the person, I can assure that it wouldn't be a problem. I will also try to change whoever is "annoying" into a kind person, although it doesn't always works out, I can still help him, although that's the whole point of helper is it... ( The term " annoying" sometimes doesn't mean they're really annoying, just going with the public, how I define annoying, is people that desperately need help, as such they spam help or keeps bugging a staff, and I'm sure truly annoying people doesn't exist in meepcraft)

I also try to finish every work given to me as soon as possible. I don't stall a lot and I can manage my time well. Although managing time on weekdays is quite hard for me, since I have school, I can hop on minechat from time to time, and with minechat, I can still handle modreqs and help verbally.

What are your weaknesses? I can sometimes be immature, as I am only 14, but I try to reduce the amount of times i get mad about something or just trying to argue over a small issue. And lately, I think I did quite well, still happens sometimes, but no one is perfect.

I also sometimes rush through what I am trying to do, althought I can manage my time well, sometimes life just doesn't go according to plan. I try to put my best effort in everything, but carelessness can happen because i rush through things.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: If you read the whole application ( which I assume is short ), thank you for taking the time.

This actually serves as two purposes, as a staff application and as a thread to see how people actually think about me. ( that's why I didn't tell anybody i am applying for staff, also I am not gonna like every post below this, because personally that's not what I do in normal threads, I just try to stay the way i am now and try to be honest)

Thank you.

 

+Very nice and friendly on /g
+Helpful
+/- Application is short

Suggestion: Add some more stuff about you to your application <3 : do you hold any leadership positions at school? Have any special traits and/or personalities that will help you stand out? What makes YOU unique? <3 <3 <3

I would love to see you as a Helper on MeepCraft! +1

 

-1
-Never seen you
-App was okay
-Be more active in, forums, ts, in game
Good Luck

 

You are from Malaysia?! My Mum is from there, I've been there quite a few times

Anyways, Sack. +1. I see you as very mature, you are quite active, you also know lots about redstone which can come into good use when doing some modreqs if people are questioning about redstone. I think you should just help a little more in shout but other than that, you would be great staff.

Good luck!

 

+1.

+Cool person
+Nice in shout
-I rarely see you (most likely timezones)

 

-1
-Every time I talk to you in Teamspeak, you need help.
-You really need to work on your patience. When you ask me to fix a problem, I'll fix it, but if I'm helping other players, then you need to wait. Complaining about the hackers that I promised I would check out, while I am busy with another problem, only makes what I'm currently doing more time consuming and difficult. You've done this to me more than once.
-Not only does the comment above seem impatient, but it also reflects you as rude individual.
-Stop creating drama. It's not fun to hang around someone who is constantly bashing other players, so try to be more positive.
-This application did not sell me. None of the points that were explained made you different from the rest of the applicants. Please try to be more descriptive, and try to find an adjective that makes you, you.
-There has been no indication to me that you are helpful.

 

Just because you don't see him doesn't mean he is not active he is probably in a different time zone which is good meep needs more staff not in murica

 

-1
I rarely see you around, you're not helpful and you're not staff material.
Improve on activity, ya maybe you are active but i never see you talk which i kind of see as being inactive. Your application was decent.

Good luck.

 

-1 every time I am on ts you come in a channel for 5 seconds to say something rude/annoying and leave.

 

Thank you for honest replies.

 

+Timezones-staff need to be on 24/7/4/12
+Server knowledge-has the capability to answer server questions
+Likes to PvP and parkour-can find and report hackers in both places
+Active
-Bit immature
-Slightly annoying
But still, +1 from me.

 

+1 Can be annoying/stuck up but with good intentions at heart.

 

I know this happens a lot to you so Mia if you needs to talk I'm here

 

Let me just say that you're a really cool guy and you've been amazing about the whole alt thing and I know that I can trust you with a pretty nice amount of responsibility. But there's more than that. I have seen you be hostile in game, and from what others have said I'm not the first to see that.

My advice is to just take like a month and work on being mature, being just in general polite, and go for it again.

 

+.5

When I first met you, you seemed a little distant. But after getting to know you, you're actually quite nice. I think your problem is that you give off a vibe to new people that might seem like you're pushing them away. Like Muunkee said, work on your politeness and welcome people into your life.

 

Also, you could've asked me.

 

For all those who are -1 because they don't see him often, you should really spend time with him on teamspeak. He's more capable than you might think; knowledgeable and concerning in many aspects of the server.

+1.

 

I see you on as we are in similar timezones, I see you around in chat and forums. Nobody is perfect and I admit I have seen you slip you once or twice but I have done so more as it happens to everyone.
I think you would be fit to make a good helper and you have to potential to learn well for me it's a +.8

 

Thank you to the people who took the time to read through the app or post something.

 

M'sia buddies!! (Yeah I was born in Singapore but I go to Malaysia a lot more)
Heyo Sackboy, you're really active, especially coming from your timezone. I've talked to you a couple times, and here and there it may be a little rough, but overall I think you have reasonable people skills. You're always a good person to chat with on Teamspeak, and I think you should definitely be given a shot at an interview. +1, good luck!
