Why do bans/kicks ruin your chance of becoming a moderator?
I understand that if you are banned from the servers for something really bad I can see how that would affect your application in a way that they would deny it. But what about the other people? The ones banned for minor things such as spam? The ones who dispute their bans? I feel that it a ban is an unfair way to judge another person. I feel that some people actually learn from that one simple mistake and actually learn the rules and abide to them afterwards. For me after my ban (which I will discuss below) I felt terrible and I learned from my mistake and took the time to review all the MCSG rules. I looked them over and I continue to visit the rules at least once a week. I really started enjoying the rules of this server and felt like I should be able to become a moderator so that I could help others see that the rules are actually a cool thing.
I tried for moderator my first time and got denied for not enough information. My second time was the same thing except I didn't put enough detail. Finally when I spent hours and hours on my application and added all the information that I could, I submitted a third application. The same Sr. Mods that reviewed my first applications told me that I couldn't reapply because I have had a previous ban on the servers.
My ban was in my early days of MCSG. I was relatively new to the servers and when I got into a lobby I started to spam to get my favorite maps voted. I would say something like "Vote 4" "Vote 4" "Vote 4" or something like that. I got banned for a total of 48 hours. After the ban I started taking the rules seriously and I reviewed the rules. Then I decided to dispute my ban, which I did, And I was able to get unbanned within a couple hours. Now that I've gotten it disputed the mods now hold all kicks I've had against me.
My point for this thread is
Give people with bans/kicks a chance! If they can show the commitment and dedication and prove to people that they realized their mistakes and learned from it then I believe they should get a fair trial when submitting a moderator application.
Here are the Sr. Mods that have reviewed my application. @slasherxtreme @Tacoface1234 @Purewelshboy1 Please take the time to read this thread and understand to give people a fair trial regardless of their kicks/bans
*Note I am talking about people with minor bans that have only been banned a total of one time. This thread is not in support of Hackers or people that have multiple offenses of being banned.
