When did you join Meepcraft? Aug 29, 2013

Introduction: Hello! As my forum name states, I’m Alexia. I’ve been playing Meepcraft for over two and a half years now. I’ve been staff twice and my entire time here has made me extremely happy.

Outside of Meep, I have several hobbies. I recently quit, but I used to do a lot of Scottish Dance with over seven years of experience, a lot of that with children. I’m working on being able to do competitive horse jumping, and I’m learning Pekiti which is a Filipino martial art. I enjoy drawing in both traditional and digital mediums and I’m working on a giant Pokemon embroidery. I don’t tend to watch lots of TV or movies, but I’m watching more Anime and I absolutely love The Walking Dead. My favorites games include Minecraft, Skyrim, and The Last of us.

Why should you be Helper? -Experience
I have just under a half a year in experience as a staff member, and even though it’s been a year since I was last staff, the knowledge I gained from being a helper never left. I know all the ins and outs of prism, I know how to use it effectively, and I know when to apply it to get the job done. Previously, as a staff member, I showed an affinity for modreqs. I’m confident that in my third term as a staff member, I could further improve my work ethic and quality through the use of a positive attitude and strong leadership ability. I am aware that I showed an extremely negative aura during my previous two terms. Fortunately, I intend to learn from my previous mistakes and use these mistakes to make myself a stronger link in the staff team and an overall better person. I believe that a staff member who displays astounding leadership qualities, positive attitude, and efficiency would benefit any staff team. I believe I exhibit all of these qualities.









-Attitude
I’ve been playing Meepcraft for about two and a half years. That’s a long time. I keep up with this server and I look forward to talking to the people here every day. Meep is one of the best things that’s happened to me in my teenage life and has made me grow as a person. I understand some people’s distaste with me and I agree with those people. I have been improving greatly on my bad attitude and toxicity since the beginning of the year and I am ready for a third shot at the staff position.

Another thing I’d like to note here is that I can be remarkably unbiased in a professional setting. I am not afraid to admit that I dislike certain people on the server, but I will never let these feelings get in the way of my job. I am willing to issue a challenge to the current staff team, if I am caught being biased in anyway against any person, strip me from my rank.

-Worth Ethic and Activity
Usually, I am a laid back type of person, I find it very hard to start on something that takes a lot of time. However, once I’m passionate about something, I can never stop, momentum keeps building and I never lose focus. I’m also a great multitasker - I can message many people at a time while doing modreqs. Also, I managed to teach Adlovesdogs and Cyber_Punk how to use prism during my second term of staff, all while maintaining a 30 modreq daily average. For my previous work as a helper, I’ve been accoladed by many respected staff members, such as Onis, Cooleysworld, and even Sjoepappentrap who said “You always worked your [butt] off.”

Meepcrafters might like be because I am extremely accessible. Besides in the game itself, I am available widely on Kik, Skype, the forums, and Teamspeak. Because of this, I am always open to suggestion, whether it comes from the players themselves or other members of the team. I believe staying accessible is very important between the community and the staff members, especially in the most recent times..

I understand that I am not a big talker on Teamspeak but that’s simply because I don’t like being in a room with lots of people and a prefer listening to music or just sitting in silence. However, I am more than happy to talk at any time, just send a poke or a PM my way!

On top of being consistently active in general, I can also be active on any timezone that’s necessary. I have a very loose schedule, being homeschooled grants me with a plethora of free time, and I don't mind in the slightest spending this free time working on Meep. This, coupled with my very strange sleeping schedule, makes it easy for me to moderate on the wee hours of the night or in the late morning. It all depends on where I am most needed.

What are your weaknesses? My largest two weaknesses are my past and my attitude. My past is quite possible the worst on meepcraft content-wise. I sent bad pictures to people, I blackmailed one person, and I was extremely toxic for a long time. Part of my bad attitude continues to pop up now and again but I am continuing to try my hardest to keep it on the down-low and to me the bigger person when I have to be. I keep the maturity level as high as possible but yes I do slip up a lot. I request that you be patient with me as I continue to work on these!

I was denied last time I applied which was on March first. It’s been almost 3 weeks since my official denial and I very much believe that I have kept my head up high and am qualified for the job. I was told I was denied due to attitude issues and I have kept my attitude in check and refrained from saying things that are rude and bad and tried to re-word things that sounded not so good.

Please give any other information you might think is useful for us to know: I used a lot of my last app with a few changes. This is simply because of the fact that this application is my best and I cannot see a way for me to make better. I have changed several things and added some new and more relevant information. Thank you!

 

+1 all the way.
-You have a lot of integrity, and that is the number one thing I look for in people.
-As far as social skills go, you're learning to hold your tounge. At this point the speaking aspect can only get better.
-You are under no circumstances gullible. You have a strong sense of justice, and you will not let the baddies get away with things they shouldn't.
-Muunkee is very unbaised, and doesn't let drama or media get to her head.
Give her a spin, she deserves a chance. Good luck Muunkee! Talk to me if you need anything.

 

I still have no belief that you can keep up the proper attitude for as long as it takes. Sorry to be blunt, but I figure you appreciate honesty. I have no vote, prove me wrong.

 

My last demotion was a year and a half ago - I'm sure you can understand that a lot has changed in that time period. A lot. I've learned from my mistakes and I will not make them again.

I think this one's 19, but yeah I'll agree with you there. But I'll say again that the vast majority of these were over a year ago. Imo it's not really relevant anymore. Just because of my past doesn't mean I'm bad and desperate currently.

I don't think I've reported more than a half dozen people since my last demotion. I also don't understand how this is a bad thing as long as any of the reports are valid.

Your worries are somewhat valid, but the fact is is that I've changed SO much in the past year and a half. I'm trying not to be offensive or whatever here, but I think you simply have too much bias against me and that's why you're bringing up little things and bad things that have happened a long time ago.

There is so much of a difference between the me now and the me a year ago. I understand why I was demoted both times (I don't even think I was even a little qualified for staff the first round I freely admit, lol. )

I will not argue against constructive criticism, but I don't think you're quite right in your worries. I'd like us to make up and work past our issues together. ^.^ Hope to see you in game.

 

Accepted for interview!

 

First post!

Definitely qualified. Youve helped me improve on so much and you've grown incredibly. You teach me every day what it's like to be a helper and you are truly a role model Ily muunkee and u better get it! +1000000

 

So excited to see that you applied again! I think your app is beautiful and you've really tried to improve. all I can see is improvement. Maybe a few bumps in the road here and there, but overall, there's been such an incline in your attitude towards others.
It's been amazing getting to see you develop your personality and skills over the past few years. I honestly think that you will make a great asset to the team.
Definite +1. Good luck!

 

I did mention this a little bit in my app

It was all mainly attitude issues which still do come up, but as far as Im aware no one has had a recent problem with me which is why I decided it was a good enough time to apply again. :]

And to the rest of you guys who've replied, many thanks for the support and criticism <3

 

I don't think I liked how you handled your last denial--until staff went in and cleaned it up, you were posting some things I wouldn't want to see from a staff member.

However, everything else about you tells me that you'd make a good staff member, and at any rate you'd do better than half the staff we currently have.
