Hey, I'm Zph/Zxph, I've been playing riverside for a few months on and off and this is my application for staff on the server.
Section A: Applicants background
1.1: What is your in-game name? Zph
1.2 How old are you? I am 15 (even if I do sound like an infant at times).
1.3 Do you have a working microphone? Yes.
1.4 How long have you been playing Riverside? I started playing in March of 2023 and stopped after around a month due to a friend being banned, my friends came back around June/August time and then they got banned again, they came back around 2 weeks ago and I've played continuously since.
1.5 Are you fluent in English? Yes, English is my main language.
1.6 What is your SteamID? My SteamID is STEAM_0:0:239578538.
1.7 What is your Discord? My main Discord is currently _.zxph
1.8 References (if any)? I don't have any references.
Section B: Definitions and critical thinking:
2.1: Define RDM and provide two examples: RDM is Random Death Match and it is when you kill another player without reason, one example could be they were walking down the street, another is during a carjacking and shooting the driver without adverting a KOS.
2.2: Define NLR and provide two examples: NLR stands for New Life Rule and it is when you return to a point of death within 5 minutes of dying, one example could be dying at BMW garage and spawning at bus stop, another is being killed by the Bank and respawning at main spawn and returning there to kill the person that killed you.
2.3: Define FearRP and provide two examples: FearRP is the need to act like your character in a life threatening situation, one example of this could be a group of people holding you at gunpoint and another could be someone mugging you while they are armed.
2.4: What is homophobia and provide two examples: Homophobia is hatred or fear of members of the LGBTQIA+ community, one example could be denying a member a role due to being gay, another example could be calling a member a homophobic slur after finding out they are a member of the community.
2.5 What is racism and provide two examples: Racism is hatred of a certain or multiple race(s)/ethnicities. One example of this could be calling a person a racial slur such as the n-word after being told they are African-American, another example is calling an Indian person a slur against that ethnicity.
Please answer the following questions as if you were a Trial-Mod:
2.6: William has adverted carjack and stolen an NHS members vehicle. Joe reports him for failing to advert carjack. What steps will you take to resolve this sit? - I would first check William's warns to see if this is a recurring event or a one time thing, if it is the first time I will verbally warn William and tell him to read the rules around NHS and not to commit crimes against NHS, if it is a recurring event I will warn William and tell him to read the rules. I will also tell Joe that although he did the right thing, he reported William for the wrong reason and to check chat next time.
2.7: Joe has reported William for shooting at him for no reason. William states that he was not shooting for no reason, he adverted PD raid. William has killed 6 people. What steps will you take to resolve this sit? - I would first check chat to see if a PD Raid was adverted, if it was then I would ask William if any citizens outside of the main PD area were killed, if not and Joe was a member of PD then I would end the sit as William was in their rights to KOS any PD members in PD. If the raid was not adverted, I would warn William for not adverting a raid, if William returns to PD and continues without adverting, I would ban William for ignorance and MassRDM
2.8: Joe (Drug dealer) has built a base on the sidewalk. William raids Joes base with no advert. Joe kills William. William gets a new gun and drives straight back and kills Joe and sells all his drugs. What steps will you take to resolve this sit? - I would check Williams warns, if there are any warns relating to not adverting or NLR, I would kick/ban William for RDM, ignorance and FTA.
2.9: William as a Commander in the Police is hosting a meeting he adverts “Pd meeting | Starting 5m | Important topics | No major crimes” Joe as a Jihad adverts bombing and ends up killing 10 people. What steps will you take to resolve this sit? - (although Jihad is no longer a job), I would warn Joe as Joe ignored the advert, proceeded to advert a bombing, causing MassRDM, if Joe rejoins and does a similar thing I would then ban Joe for ignorance and any other issues caused,
Section C: Questions

3.5: List three weaknesses that may affect you when you’re staff: I take some things too seriously at times, I'm still in education so some times don't work for me, I might not be harsh enough on some people.
