Cactus' Application

In-game name:
[GM] Cactus

Steam ID:
STEAM_0:1:26423366

Location:
Reading, England.

Game(s)/Service(s) you are applying for:
TF2 (except Private/Misc servers),
Garry’s Mod,
Sprays Page.

Why do you think you need admin:
TF2 – I believe that although we have many TF2 staff, who are willing to go online to deal with hackers, sometimes they don’t. I also feel that due to my nature of going to sleep early and therefore waking up early (8am-9am), I can manage the earlier hours of the day that may not be managed by current admins due to them waking up later.

Garry’s Mod – I believe that there are only three (although I may be wrong in this) Garry’s Mod admins, and if we are going to be getting different Garry’s Mod servers, this is going to be too few. I also believe that in case the current admins are inactive (e.g. Gaw when he was doing his exams last week), there will need to be another 2~ admins in case they are needed.

Sprays Page - I believe that many admins have stopped banning the nude/immature sprays and I would like to help by blocking these sprays.

Why are you more suitable than other applicants:
Well, as many of you will know, I have been in GM for over 2 years (I got into the clan on the 13/08/2010 ) and I know what duties are involved and I know the commands needed to fulfil these tasks. As well as all of this, I will always quit the game I'm playing if someone tries to contact an admin over DarkiSock.

Current and expected activity level on the games/services in question:
Whenever there is a game going I play on these games. I also try to start games such as TTT and fill the server to get them going. I tend to play TF2 Orange quite a lot whenever I can’t think what to play (quite often).

Current and expected activity level on Mumble: Pretty much whenever I'm on my computer, except sometimes in the mornings, where I watch a film/something on YouTube – when I'm doing this I'm always on steam and can be contacted there, as well as checking the forums every few minutes. If told that I'm needed on mumble I will always pause the video and will hop onto mumble until the issue is gone.

Current and expected activity level on the forums:
All of the time, no question.

Any previous administrative experience:
LSA in GM,
Full admin on a Garry’s Mod RP server for about 2 weeks (until the owner decided to shut down the server and take all of the money he got from it – including the co-owners money),
LSA in another Garry’s Mod RP server (that was taken down again after a week, due to not enough donations for the server to continue, and the owner couldn't afford to pay for it).

Extra:
I’d also like to say that I would apply for Minecraft admin but I feel it is not needed. I feel that there are barely any hackers on our servers, and they are always dealt with (by Mysteryem usually) straight away. I would apply for Minecraft admin if one of the admins did step down, but I feel there is zero need for me or anyone to apply for Minecraft admin at the moment.

 

Good luck man.

 

Haha

 

I have tried to tell people about this by the way. I totally forgot about this. Thanks.

 

I'm now going to violently wave my hand to grab your attention and say, I've heard jack shit about sprays not being blocked. :S

 

... b-b-b-b-but... why? D:

 

Because no-one has said anything to me, or made a post on the forums or anything.

We can't read minds.

 

I know I know. Was a bit un-serious with the last post, and as I said I had totally forgot about it.

 

If server admins don't know this they probably shouldn't be server admins.

 

Well Done Cactus - good to see another Gmod admin, we don't have many!

 

Especially in these dark times.

 

Cactus has a blue name !?

My world is in disarray


(well done)

 

That other guy got TF2 admin and all you got was gmod admin.

Well played GM, well played

 

why

 

Definitely deserved, good job Cactus.

 

Good on you, you're definitely someone who deserves adminhood.
