Personality
Why do you play SS13?: SS13 probably is the most diverse game I know. The complex game mechanics and the player driven gameplay is what attracted me to it.
Why do you play on Aurora?: The community, clearly. I've been around in a lot of other game groups and it's easy to say that Aurora is the most engaging and welcoming, the people in it. I'm happy to call a lot of people here my friends.
What do moderators do?: Moderate - They make sure rules and standards are uphold, be it in-game or out on community platforms. The role that is meant to help new and long standing players with questions, concerns or problems.
What does it mean to be a moderator for our server?: Be an example to the community and somebody that can be approached for questions and issues. Keep an eye open on RP/rules on the game server, answer questions anywhere and obviously keeping an eye open for misbehavior.
Why do you want to be a moderator?: I would like to be said helping hand in this community. I like to help people with the complicated gameplay mechanics and would love to help resolve issues that arise, be it tidying up troll accounts or help resolve players that have a clash. In short, I like to give back what was offered to me when I joined and what's given right now.
What qualities do you possess that would make you a good moderator?: I like to think that I have a calm and neutral, but understanding approach when it comes helping other people. Additionally I (hope) to have good communications skill when it comes to exchanging information about different topics and ideas. Important to me personally is the ambition to help people with things to the best of my abilities.
How well do you handle stress, anger, or insults?: Very well. I know when to step back before things spiral out of control and I have no hesitation to ask somebody else for a reality check when I'm not sure if I'm still objective/fair or biased.

Anything Else You Want to Add:
I have played with the thought of applying for quite some time and it was suggested a couple of times for me to apply.
I think I'm at the point where I would be comfortable with the responsibilities of being part of the mod-team.
I'd love feedback, of any kind, in here or DM, feel free to reach out.
