How active are you in Sandbox?

I have contributed to the sandbox forums quite regularly in the past few months and I have a fair amount of friends on the site, many whom I communicate with regularly off site. I've also organized 25 player setups and other events to try and bring the community together. I am on EM for a while each day. Currently I am dealing with some issues that don't allow me to be on as much as I would want to be, and have been in the past.

Which timezone are you in?

EST

How do you consider public opinion of yourself in Sandbox?

I'm well liked by most people (there are a few exceptions though) and am mostly known in the sandbox community. I do know I am disliked by certain users due to punishments they received while I was a mod for breaking sandbox and/or site rules/ evading banishment. I believe most of that has calmed down as of late and have not had a problem with any users recently. However, there are many more users with whom I can say I have a strong relationship with, and others who seem to hold me in high esteem. The reason I continue to come back is because of my love of Sandbox and because of the users here, who I will continue to be a positive role model to. I care about my friends and I care about sanboxers in general and I think that shows. I try to help anyone who needs help or just needs a person to talk to. I can push aside bias and do what is right.

Redone because my previous one wasn't really serious enough :3

Why do you want to be a moderator?
I would like to give being moderator a try :3

Why would you make a good moderator?
I won't try to hurt people intentionally. I will not act negatively on my emotions, and I will follow rational thinking when taking serious action :)

How active are you in Sandbox?
Pretty active, I go on everyday :3

Which timezone are you in?
I'm nocturnal but UTC+10:00

How do you consider public opinion of yourself in Sandbox?
Most people either like me or they don't care about me. I think some people hate me, idk.

I want to be a mod because I want to give back to the Epicmafia community. The community has been nothing but welcoming to me and has given me so much support and allowed for me to become friends with such a diverse group of people. I want others to have as positive of an experience in Sandbox that I have had and I believe that as a moderator I can help make Sandbox a safer and more inclusive community, but most of all, a fun community full of joy.

I would be a good mod because I am a kind and non judgmental person. I like to take a nonjudgmental stance when making decisions which would be an asset in monitoring reports. I value justice and am a fair individual and am willing to give people second chances if it seems they really did make a mistake and are apologetic for their actions. I am a kind and open person and would be open to hearing suggestions other users may have and am willing to bring up any and all (reasonable) suggestions brought to my attention to you. I am also a responsible individual and would take my duties seriously, but I know that being in a position of authority does not make me better than any other individual in Sandbox. And I would not allow my position to get to my head. I also have lots of experience playing the game, as I have been playing in the Sandbox lobby regularly for almost two years, and have been participating more and more in chatbox (mostly over the past eight months). I also have a healthy presence on the forums and have knowledge of the culture here in Sandbox.

As I have mentioned before, I want EM to be a safe and inclusive community and I do not take unnecessary harassment lightly. I also have taken the time to get to know my fellow users and I can say that the vast majority of people I have met on the site I have a friendly relationship with.

Redoing mine bc the last one was short and seemed not serious.

1) I want to be a mod because I've been a member of this site for several years and have spent pretty much all of that time in sandbox and I'd like to help keep it a nice place for everyone.

2) I've been in sandbox for a long time and so I know the community well. I've also been a site mod so I know how modding works and I know the rules. I can also judge reports and situations objectively.

3) I'm on at least a couple times a day.

4) US EST

5) I think public opinion of me is mostly positive. Most people I've talked to thought I was a good site mod.

Why do you want to be a moderator?
- I want to lemonize sandbox. Live up to my name, you know?

Why would you make a good moderator?
- Nothing would make me a good moderator. I have no confidence in actually being one. I just want to lemonize sandbox for a day. Heck, I can't even lemonize my own lemon kinds. They don't even have lemon avis. *cries*

How active are you in Sandbox?
- About one or two or three days per week. But I'm on for at least a game or two, depending on how bad I do.

Which timezone are you in?
- PST

How do you consider public opinion of yourself in Sandbox?
- Idk. They don't really have an opinion of me. Some see me as the guy who's always on caps lock. AYYYYY WOOP WOOP

- Just thought I'd give this a try.
- Don't know if I'd be a good moderator, but I'd do my best to keep Sandbox civil.
- At least twice a week. I'm super casual.
- EST
- I think people see me as easy going and polite.

1 Why do you want to be a moderator?

I want to be a moderator to brag about it to people, also because there's a new owner so like new mods would be cool i guess, right? RIGHT?

2 Why would you make a good moderator?

I'm not biased against people , generally liked by everyone (I think?) I'll do it for free plus I have no life so I'll be really reliable

3 How active are you in Sandbox?

I go on everyday even if I'm not in games everyday

4 Which timezone are you in?

GMT +12

5 How do you consider public opinion of yourself in Sandbox?

I'm probably super annoying but I think everyone generally likes me, I haven't got any enemies or anything

1) Why do you want to be a moderator?

Because I enjoy having power, no matter how trivial, over the existences of others. It fulfills me and compensates for my tiny package.

2) Why would you make a good moderator?

My track record and reign of terror as a site mod was impeccable and I was one of the only people keeping you all safe from abc's viciously low quality . I am the law and the law is not mocked, I'll spit your pity right back in your face. I also have absolutely no life which is a valuable skill for a mod.

3) How active are you in Sandbox?

I **** post in here, chatbox, and games pretty much everyday boss.

4) Which timezone are you in?

EST, the best timezone.

5) How do you consider public opinion of yourself in Sandbox?

90 days since last trolling episode, I mean what? Seems above average these days tbh.

Why do you want to be a moderator? To grow the community and to overlook any issues raised by the community fairly. To make a stance on harassment would probably be my main vocal point if I ever did become moderator and to tackle such issues accordingly.

Why would you make a good moderator? Cause I've been part of the community for many years and have a clear understanding of what people want and not to sit in the shadows. I haven't had much experience in moderation on a forum but I've managed a competitive team for PC and motivated them to excel in their matches.

How active are you in Sandbox? Quite often at nights,
might have the occasional day off for other stuff.

Which timezone are you in? GMT (English timezone)

How do you consider public opinion of yourself in Sandbox? I feel a lot of people get along with me with the odd couple that detest me for my actions in game.

Why do you want to be a moderator?

Sandbox has a new owner and I think some fresh faces of mods would be more then appropriate. I think I have a suitable personality for the mod team, and that I can handle situations maturely, appropriately, and correctly. I've been told by multiple site mods before that I would make a great site mod, and while a plausible cause I think sandbox itself would be much more suitable for me

Why would you make a good moderator?

I've proven in the past through the report system I fully understand the rules, and can handle situations to which there may be rule breaking or drama, and to help diffuse situations before they escalate like they have in the past. A good sandbox is one where a daily drama report dies from inactivity, not one where it can thrive.

How active are you in Sandbox?

I'm on all day~ Even if one of my job applications gets accepted I spend quite a large portion of my time on here with my friends

Which timezone are you in?

MST

How do you consider public opinion of yourself in Sandbox?

While I do not get along with a few users, the large majority either likes me or is fairly okay with me, and even those who will not will find me unbiased in my moderation and I will not base my moderator actions upon any personal vendettas, and absolutely will not stand for shadow bannings or other actions built on hate.
