I've checked my calendar, and I'm fairly convinced that enough days have passed since April 1st to make this announcement: we are now accepting admin applications!
Previously, our application process had been fairly simple: we'd observe players and hand pick the individuals we felt that may make good candidates. This time around, however, we're going to be running an experiment. We want you to tell us why you'd make a good admin through our application form.
If you've always dreamed of being a resident rule enforcer here at Saxton Hell, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for.
So how do you apply? Firstly, find some free time. The application process is lengthy and we're looking for detailed responses to the questions in the form. Next, simply visit the application form (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/12yvEVAn-EceakpSg3XKUE3-fm2hBvVKu8gryYeTJfso/viewform) and follow the instructions carefully.
We'll be reviewing responses to the form and if we feel you're a good enough candidate for being an admin, we'll get in touch with you. What can explicitly disqualify you from becoming an admin? Only one thing: asking about your submitted application.
With all that in mind, best of luck to the applicants!

so can i just sign up for only ff2 and zf admin or just full time cause i want to be ff2 admin
-
Having more server specific admins is a possibility. I'd prefer applications from people who wouldn't mind leaving the comfort zone of their usual server to deal with any potential issues that may happen on other servers, but we likely wouldn't exclude any ideal candidate who is dedicated to just a specific server.
-
oh ok cause im applying for all cause i want to try out the different servers cause i havent played on dodgeball and randomizer that much
-
can i be an admin please

i dunno i think i've been in here long enough to be an admin so i would like to be one i do belive i have everything it needs.
-
I wonder how many 'jostled sprinkles' I would create by throwing my hat in the ring for SH1. lol. Just no calling me Grandma Kai >:c
Fun fact: Your application questions were longer than some of my interview questions I give out at work, kudos for that. Weeds out some of the folks.

Application is sent. Man, that was long, but it was really detailed, which I like.
-
Also, I honestly thought this was a joke thread or a late April Fool's joke :P
-
I would love to be Trading Hell Admin/Mod... (since this is the only server i play on lately) Overspam, Earrape, crying "ADMEEN ABOOSE" screamers (even though donators tell them that they are not admins...), etc, are getting pretty annoying...
but even though i always wanted to be Admin/Mod, i don't think im the one for this job... unless you need a derpmin for trading hell :P
Also im too lazy for the application...
good luck to everyone else :D
-
Detailed application, I like that.
-
Its very detailed has somewhat hard questions
-
Just finished applying. It actually took awhile, the app is pretty detailed.

The last time I saw something like this... It was an April fools joke if I can recall correctly. Just thought I'd say that before anything else. (Yes I did look at the date this post was made)
I read BoBoBo-Bo Bo-BoBoBo's first comment. If this isn't fake then I would like to ask that maybe you /should/ restrict new admins to specific servers since they are fairly more comfortable and familiar with the specific server rules. You might apply an admin who would make a fair deal with the enforcement of the rules in lets say prop. hunt and would make a harsh mistake judging one on a deathrun server since they don't know much about it. Ofcourse (like always) I am only being suggestive.
Bottom line is that an admin should represent one game mode on probation before being given the global sever moderation ability.
-
You join the server and everything is perfectly fine. What is the correct course of action?
I can see that this question is asked in the perspective on an administrator. I don't see that this is actually a question or that the question is much to vague. Let me see what you where really trying to ask.
Example: A player has called you to deal with a problem regarding a microphone spammer. You join the server and everything is perfectly fine. What is the correct course of action?
I believe that is what you are asking for. To handle a situation regarding an alert and no issue is detected.
I would also like to ask if you could put a section for any additional questions/comments/concerns regarding administration in addition to the administration forum application review (very last question on the forum).

That you would just wait and see if they start up again, whoever the accused is. If you get complaints about said user, give them a warning or something.

Nope, we're looking for responses to that question as posed.

im sure we need more admins due to the fact we are expanding and half the admins cant get into the servers,also ff2 gets a lot of people who infact break almost half the rules and say they never do(besides all the fights that go on in the server)

Admins have reserved slots unless that changed... but yeah, we do need more admins dedicated to a single server.

Do remember though that Voidy said earlier in the thread that he wasn't thinking about having server-specific admins, but he would think about it.

I'd prefer applications from people who wouldn't mind leaving the comfort zone of their usual server to deal with any potential issues that may happen on other servers, but we likely wouldn't exclude any ideal candidate who is dedicated to just a specific server.
-
There's no real cause to have an admin dedicated to a single server. If people actually report things, admins can be in and out of servers without a problem.
Prophunt seems to be an exception because every idiot attempts to give out other people's location.

Things I liked: The application was professional, well worded, and easy to access. The questions required thought outside of just "insert generic I can do this and that" format, and will hopefully help to distinguish those who want the position, and those who want the prestige and the attention. I feel that with this form the admins you choose will be mature and responsible, and will be able to meet your demands.
Things I disliked: Some of the questions made it feel like you were being penalized for answering it a certain way, everyone has a personality, and that personality may not be extroverted and wanting to chat all the time, or being overly social. From a professional standpoint communication is important, but introverted individuals may not be inclined to be as chat ready. If these questions were designed to weed out people, then this is a mute point.
Just felt like sharing these things publicly.

Yeah we may get some badmins... Not like we already have some of those.

Windy isn't a badmin... Or at least not that bad of one.
-
Sorry I didn't register before, I guess I didn't really think I'd be interested in the forums or becoming admin, but since I have become interested I registered today. I hope that won't kill my chances of possibly getting admin.
-

He just doesn't play a lot, not a bad admin at all. I personally think he's a decent admin.

windy aint bad he is just an special person. (many puns intended)

I'm pretty sure Voidy is fair with a situation like this. I don't think you need to worry.
Btw welcome to the forums!

I was joking lol... I agree to this statement.
-
I notice since there are no admins on how many people break the rules of the servers due to no admins being on
-
If no admins know about it and you don't report it you only have yourself to blame
-
Sent in my application, cheers.

I see Luve and Voidy on DR 1 every once in awhile. I agree it isn't as often as I see admins on VSH, but they are there.

Yeah, I also see some admins pop into Trading Hell every so often.

Might be because of your timezone. You are in Alaska after all.

Who cares what a person is into or not into as long as they are doing their job as an admin and doing it correctly?
I say as long as they're doing no harm and doing their job they could be whatever fandom/sexuality/religion w/e ect. they wanna be.

We've sent out the first batch of welcome emails to a few applicants. If you didn't receive one, don't fret. There were also a few other individuals that we still have in mind.
We'll be keeping the application form open and we'll continue to review any new applicants.
-
Cheers to those that get accepted. :)
-

can't guarantee it. voided will probably only add about five more admins, any more than that will probably server specific admins, not global.
-
Congrats to those who got accepted, and I wish you guys the best of luck!
-
Congrats to those that are accepted. I don't stand much of a chance, but as long as we get administators for 3rd shift gaming. I'm good.
-
Here's hopin' I get accepted. I wouldn't mind being a server-specific, to be honest. Either way, good luck everyone!
-
Application sent! I'm honestly hoping for a server specific role. I'd be happy to switch to a new server to deal with some dispute, but I'd go right back to the trade server afterwards. It's my home.

To be honest Punishment and Knuckle have been in it longer than many who applied and they are good people for the job.

Heh. Thanks for the vote of confidence.
-
After alot of thought I decided to give it a shot.
I have in other words have submitted an application for trial administration. If there was any problems then feel free to contact me through Steam Voidy.
-
Congrats on the new trial admins, it is nice to see some friendly faces in the position, best of luck to you guys!
-
I couldn't resist i put mine in good luck to all.

Whelp... Better to have given it a shot and get blown down by Voidy then to have never had tried at all right?
Still though.. It would have been great to have at least been given a chance starting small like handling your favorite server... But I don't think Voidy wants to moderate a trillion server specific admins because he gave too many chances.

I did hit "no" for the willing to leave my favorite server question, but it's something that could change once I get comfortable with the job. It's not like we're a bunch of stubborn jerks, yeah? The position, while unlikely, is possible. I was honest at least. If I don't get my shot, it'll still be fun seeing some new faces around that can make people huge.

I don't even remember half the questions but saxton hell has always been my home and can become my permanent home.

I suppose... and yeah, it'd be a little messy if half the Saxton Hell populace became Admins... As capable or uncapable as they would be. -shudders-

My server favorites list is growing alarmingly thin over my 6000+ hours in TF2. Even the server i manage with an old buddy of mine is thinning out.
God... that sounds horrible... lmao.

Just applying. I put everything is need to know. Sorry if some words don't fit because i'm french but in voice chat i'm good.

In honesty it's not necessary I did apply but I didn't get an email; either way I play because I do. I don't have to be an admin or anything to be in touch with people via the commune.
I do tell people not to bitch about things that are part of the server, and to bother to read rules... However this doesn't exactly entitle me for anything. I can speak on my own be-half thank you.
-
Exactly.
I did the same thing once, where the fuck is my medal? ::)

well ive seen how admins work on servers and i know what the difference is between a reportable offence rather than a bannable one and i i will always listen to my orders given to me i may question but always do as i am told its always been that way plus im on trading hell everyday so ill will be able to watchover where ever i am needed ive always wanted to be an admin on that server and well if anyone questions how long ive been here ive been here sense the fall of 2013 only reason why my registration says different is cause i never did i guess i thought i already was -_- welp if im chosen i will not disappoint ill do all in my power to keep her going forward this is my home and always will be i love the people on this server

<-- banned for 6 months, won't make admin

I totally would be admin, just feel like 13 is a bit young for such a position :S
But hey, if that's fine, I'd apply.

Applied. Took awhile because the application is very detailed.

Just a note: we'll be locking the admin applications form for new submissions on the 16th. So if you're still unsure if you want to submit an application, you have until then to decide.
As for how long they'll be closed: (http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/emot-iiam.gif)

Seeing as the apps have closed long ago, it's only proper that this thread be locked for the time being until the apps reopen again.
