Steam Name(Current): Awesome

Age: 34

Current Rank: Member

Have you ever been banned and why: No just troll bans from friends who were higher staff messing around.

Why would you like to be promoted?: I started as a Mod on the server and honestly feel unhelpful when no staff is around and I know how to handle rdm and trolls who come to the server but I do not have the ability to help. I play a lot of off hours when staff is not around much just mostly members or active players and we have many a times had to deal with nasty bridge trolls as its just outside normal hours of staff being around.

Why do you think we should promote you?: I have had years of experience on FRG being one of the starting mods I have a very good understanding of the server,  rules, and the community.

Do you have any administrative experience: Years of experience between NTG and FRG.

Do you agree to FRG's policy on applications(yes or no): Yes
(By agreeing above you are agreeing that you understand you are not entitled to said promotion, and that we have all rights to deny or approve the application
for any reason we see fit, you agree to not stir up any trouble if the application outcome is not your desired outcome.
Failing to abide by this can result in a full demote, or perma-denial.)

Additional Details: I tend to go in and out of our community when I get burnt out on gmod, when that happens people know I am taking a break. Having taken a 3 and a half year break and being refreshed with the gmod scene I would like to get back to helping keep the servers fun and troll free and if given the opportunity will apply to rise back to old standing as a moderator to be as helpful as I am able to be.

FRG has a lot of "mmo" elements to it and you can collect pets, rings, necklaces and other cosmetics, so why not mounts?

Just like you have a chance to get a worm or Lyrus pet when you kill them, why not also a chance to get a mount?

Basically, there would be a new slot under character, a mount slot, and when you equip the mount, you can press M to summon it, below shows a good example. Mounts can only be summoned in certain times, like during lobby, certain times before events, and maybe before ttt round starts, although not sure how that would look like on certain maps. Mounts can provide a quick way to travel and purely to show off, maybe also give off some passive buffs like rings and necklaces do.

Mounts would have no collision to avoid players and other things being stuck on them and would be disabled around active enemies.

Here are a few videos showcasing what I mean, purely as an example I barely put any effort into this so don't judge but it gets the general idea across. Also ignore the health bar, was a little project of mine.

Name of staff you were banned by: Kazen (I think)

Length of the ban: 45days

Would you like your ban shortened or repealed?: repealed

Reason for ban: Sharking Attempts

Did you commit the actions stated in the ban reason?: No. As i was not aware of the items true value, sharking is not correct. Edit: Just found out hes lvl 243, people assumed he was a new player for some reason. Hes not a new player, and even if i knew who i was trading with and if he was a new player, how would I convince him that what I was offering was fair? I just wanted to offer what I was willing to pay. If he rejected it, I would offer more. Thats how trading and negotiating works. How would I even go about scamming on t/o let alone sharking?

What really happened?: Was not aware of the actual prices of items. I had previously been told bad prices of items and bought those items. Since I cannot seen t/o history myself nor any declines nor reports of previous offers on this item (Nor do i correctly recall since I dont memorize every trade I set up), this is based on a single screenshot from discord by kazen. I offered 2m coins and 1 pro easing rune. (Post looking up who actually offered the item: Appearently the item i was offering on was owned by Lemon. I dont know who this is, but appearently they are a new player? On t/o I can't see who offers the item, so there was no way I would have known. I had just logged in just to check the t/o updates for my account. I wanted to offer on frostfathers since I heard it was good in grims, since I want to grind grims solo sometime soon. I start my offers low then gradually increase my offer, as any trade negotiation would. I had no intentions nor idea this guy was a new player).

Additional details: I havent played in 4 years t/o completely new to me so I dont know if there is some command people are using to find information or what cause they appearently all know exactly who is trading with who and such which I thought t/o was supposed to protect you and the buyer against that. I thought t/o was a place to put up offers and just get declined if no one likes them. I would understand being reported for posting the same items again and again on the same item or being reported for giving 1 coin offers. How is it sharking if I don't even know the price myself, nor is the other player even a new player even if I had some way to find out who Im trading with?

I do not completely understand every item's worth, so I have to make personal judgements. Occasionally I will do my due diligence to check the prices of items with the people of FRG. Unfortunately, there are many people who do not understand the item market themselves and will provide bogus/false information, agree with bogus information, have no information on the subject matter, or leaves the question ghosted. For this item, I was told the base version was worth 2m coins, so I offered at the base price with the intention of going higher. Post trade-banned I realize this was a lie. The frostfather item in question I believe had lucky, chill, and 1/3 final bullet. After that offer I offered again at 6mil. I like to buy low and sell high, but I'm a lot more careful with my trades now than before, since coming back ive been scammed a lot and I understand that feeling.

As of now, I see that I misinterpretted how t/o is used. I used it as a way to negotiate items, since these were called "Offers." T/o should be viewed as the marketplace *for the most part, not entirely.* I post all my offers with the intention of negotiating. Instead I get reported, unknowingly, that I did something wrong. I do not recieve notifications, other than death threats for offers that I thought were good or negotiable.


T/o needs a warning system or way to inform or comment on your offer as well as a way to check your t/o history, finalizations, declines, current and previous offers. I thought t/o was meant to be an extension of !trade. I viewed that incorrectly. As a suggestion, I think T/o should have a warning of reports system and a way to inform buyers that their offer was reported for xyz reasons. I think t/o should have a comment system, a way to provide a short message to the seller, just like how the seller can submit a custom reason for declining an offer.
