I would like to join the Mountain Interactive staff team to make a difference within the community. I want to ensure everyone receives help with a quick response time. I want to make sure that everyone is able to get the best roleplay experience out of Mountain Interactive’s games. I’ve also faced issues myself with rule breakers, and if I’m able to help others, and stop rule breakers, I would not only be fulfilling myself, but others who may be in the same position. Furthermore, sometimes I notice that no one responds to the ‘!help’ calls, and I want to help solve that issue, by being active, which also allows me to engage with the community. Please provide a detailed explanation of your motivation, what excites you about being part of this team, and how you see yourself contributing to our goals. My motivation behind wanting to join the Mountain Interactive Staff team, as stated before, is to ensure that everyone gets the complete help that they need, and to ensure that everyone is able to get the best roleplay experience they can. I want to ensure that people feel heard, and that I am able to direct them to all necessary resources. I am excited to work with the other members apart of moderation, and overall help improve Mountain Interactive. I believe I can see myself contributing to Mountain Interactive’s goals by my activity, dedication, and overall being respectful as well as kind. I want to help build a closer bond with the community, and create a welcoming environment. What skills or qualities do you have that would make you a valuable member of the staff team? Some of my skills/qualities that I have which make me a valuable member of the staff team are, I am a people person, I love interacting with the community, and if I am able to help at least one person, that would fulfill me as a person. Furthermore, I am active and dedicated to moderation as a whole. I want to ensure that I can guide people into making realistic and fun role-plays. Furthermore, I have prior experience, so I am able to take that background knowledge and apply it to here. Have you been involved in any other communities or teams? If so, please list them and describe your role: Yes, I have been apart of many other communities as a moderator and more including, Sandy Shores, which included me starting from the bottom as a trial moderator, and working up to Senior Administrator. The responsibilities in these roles definitely differed. As a moderator+ you focused on the overall player experience, and moderating the rule breakers. Once I hit administrator+ it focused more on the internal aspects, hiring moderators, managing the game, and overall focusing on how the moderation team could improve as a whole. For California state roleplay I was the director of moderation. As the director I focused on what we could change, and the strategies of moderation. Furthermore, I focused on staff behavior and monitoring how the moderation acted. For Tennessee State Rolelpay I was apart of the moderation team, ensuring that there were no rule breakers, and ensuring that people got the best experience they could out of it. How would you handle a conflict between two community members? I would handle a conflict between two community members by first, separating them, and then getting each of their sides of the story. I believe that it is very important to get all sides of the conflict before making a decision. Once I got both sides of the story, I would try to remedy it, and come up with a few solutions that they could try, to help solve their issue. Describe a time you had to solve a difficult problem in a leadership or team role: A time where I had to solve a difficult problem in a leadership role was when, at Sandy Shores, there was a clear separation between the moderation roles and the management roles, each almost had a ‘side’. To solve this issue, I set aside times where we would play games, and talk about how we could improve overall as a staff team. By allowing time for us to team-build, we automatically started to bond, where there was little issue. The outcome was that we all came to an agreement that there should be no superiority, and that if I saw any, I would ensure to get rid of it. How do you prioritize tasks when managing multiple responsibilities? I prioritize tasks when managing multiple responsibilities by firstly, setting aside time to come up with a plan, and prioritizing each one, deciding which task is of importance. I would then write this down/make a list, and start working away. By making a list, it allows me to stay on task, and not have to think about what I would have to do next. Furthermore, this reduces stress, which improves my work. What do you think is the most important value for a Mountain Interactive Staff member to uphold, and why? I believe the most important value for Mountain Interactive staff to uphold is integrity. Integrity can be applied in multiple ways, and everyone has their own definition. I believe integrity is holding yourself up to a set standard, be a leader, and help others even when no one else is looking. Integrity is so important due to the fact that people look up to the moderators and often seek guidance or help from us. If we do not hold ourselves to a standard, that we could set a bad example on the player base, as well as other members of the staff team. How would you support and encourage new members of the community? I would support and encourage new members of the community by first, introducing myself, and giving them a brief run down about Mountain Interactive and their games. I would then ensure that they have my discord, just in case they need to ask any questions. Furthermore, I would check in with them every so often to ensure that their experience at mountain interactive is fantastic. By giving them opportunities to ask questions and get to know me, it allows for community bonding to occur. What are your long-term goals, and how does being part of Mountain Interactive align with them? My long term goals for this community are inspire and lead others onto the right path. Being apart of Mountain Interactive aligns with them because I am able to help new players and help others who are in need. I am able to be a service to others, and inspire them to bond with the community and help new players, as they once were. Are there any areas within the community you feel need improvement? If so, what ideas do you have to address them? I do not have any outstanding concerns or a need for improvement. Mountain Interactive is very solid!
