Timezone: EST ( But I work third shift so it may as well be flipped over. )
When are you on Aurora?: Anywhere between 3pm and 7am. I'm a night auditor, so I work late hours and can be online during work.
Experience I've staffed for both Hypatia server and Aurora server. Senormin on the former, Mod on the latter.
How long have you played SS13?: I can't even remember that this point, at least.. six to seven years now.
How long have you played on Aurora: Around three to four years. I love this place.
How much do you know about SS13 (Baystation build) game mechanics?: A heck of a lot. Medical has changed recently and I'm trying to get a wrap around that here soon.
Do you have any experience moderating for an SS13 server?: As stated above, I have been a mod here before. I left due to a rather rapid turn around in my life.
Have you read through the criteria thread; https://forums.aurorastation.org/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=4198 - and believe that you mark off all the criteria?: Yes, and I have.
Have you ever been banned, and if so, how long and why?: I'm 99% sure I haven't.
Personality Funny, sarcastic, a little bit rough around the edges but professional all the same.
Why do you play SS13?: SS13 provides me with a much bigger RP experience than most games can provide. On top of all this, the RP I get is mixed in with other players. It's amazing. Just wish byond wasn't such a terrible engine lol.
Why do you play on Aurora?: The staff are great, the players greater. The server is HRP which is my favorite, and no two rounds will EVER be the same. Plus it's got Read. I mean, who wouldn't play on a server with her?
What do moderators do?: Moderators are rule enforcers and helping hands. They assist new players, or people that need guidance. Answer questions that the wiki or forums might not have on hand and keep the flow of the server going. They deal with issues between one or more players as well. Also they take care of player complaints on the forums alongside the admin team.
What does it mean to be a moderator for our server?: It means keeping things going. Helping out others when issues arise and helping the players on the server to continue to have fun.
Why do you want to be a moderator?: I loved being a part of the staff team. Best team I've ever been a part of. I miss it greatly and want to come back to do my part and help out. Plus things have settled down to the point that I can be around much more often.
What qualities do you possess that would make you a good moderator?: I'm a team player, and I'm good at talking with other people and remaining friendly and professional. I know when to step back and let someone else handle something if I can't.
How well do you handle stress, anger, or insults?: No one's perfect, but I try my best to keep a cool head. I do try to make sure my anger doesn't get the best of me when I'm playing. If it does, I know when to step back and cool off.
Anything Else You Want to Add: Thanks for reading this, and Goret's a dork!
