@Baozi couldn't* (unless you actually care at least a little)

People being bad for the community annoy me generally yes.
 
 
We are too sensitive or maybe you're stuck in the old world where you think it was acceptable. The world has changed and that is also how we have adapted to it. You were told from multiple people and multiple servers that your attitude was unacceptable, who is the out of touch person here?

Well no you're correct. I'm definitely not suitable for this. I definitely have not mandated  everyone to love each other, nor do I provide shelter or food spending money for anyone here. I'm sorry if the goals for my position are not inline with this and I regret not having structured the COC this way as well.
 
Like I said, its unfortunate but not surprising you have no Idea what my values and goals are.

If that was from prime minister blackface, I definitely would give it back lol

I apologize if you think unwanted flirting isn't grounds for a sexual harassment complaint and subsequent discipline. I'll have to take that up with HR next time.
 
 
Think the word you're looking for is clique. Sorry if you believe that being against misogyny and being concerned about the safety for women on the website is against your beliefs, perhaps this isn't the community you want to be in.

How utterly simplistic and unfortunately for you, not in line with my own set of values. Your inability to recognize what I value is why we are not alike.

With all due respect we are nothing alike. Not in life experiences nor values.
 
 
Your feedback is duly noted.

Depends on what you believe I was hired for. 
 
 
The feedback from individuals and overall objective of building an inclusive community begs to differ.

Was referring to both EFL and here.
 
 
If the qualification for annoying me is being a bad person for the community then I whole heartedly accept this condition

I'd like to apply!

I have always been interested in this role and I think I could be a really good fit. From a young age I have always been the situation defuser and problem solver. I love helping people and making sure they feel safe and welcome, I feel I can do that as a moderator and some!

I am very active on discord throughout the day, I would say my most active hours are 11am - 11pm(PST) sometimes later it depends how I feel, I have way too much time on my hands but I'm completely willing to put in that extra time I have into moderating and making sure this discord/forum is safe and fun for everyone.

I can respond to discord pings fairly quick depending if I am at my PC or not. I am 2fa verified.

I am 17 almost 18, my birthday is in less than a month. I feel I can be very mature and completely able to act above my age. I grew up in a family with divorced parents and with a mother who has health issues so I was basically brought up and had to do a lot of stuff a young child wouldn't do, so I have learnt how to act older.

I do hold 2 league jobs: Recruitment team and Interim VHLM GM. I do plan on getting a full-time GM job this off-season and I have taken a step back to part-time in the recruitment team. I feel I have no conflict of interest with these 2 jobs. It may seem like I'm taking on lots with applying to become mod but with me being only "Part-time" on the recruitment team I feel I can prioritize the moderation job and still be a recruitment team member on the side.

I don't really have experience moderating, besides a little in the Pro-am discord but I wouldn't call that moderating. I feel I do have the ability and drive to be a moderator.

I feel I can deal with difficult situations and figure out solutions/defuse the situation without avoidance.

Thanks and good luck to all!

I'll also apply, I feel this role is one I could thrive in. Generally speaking, I look to de-escalate tense situations and make peace rather than fueling an argument. I seek to help others and solve problems, which could benefit me as a moderator. 
 
I'm on the forums and discord regularly, my most active hours being from about 6-8 AM and 3-11 PM EST most days. I am able to check in multiple times during the day too, but am steadily online during these hours for at least five days of the week, including weekends when I have more free time. Days when I'm not, I can manage a similar amount of hours to be online, although they're not as constant. I did just get a new job so I cannot promise I'll be online all the time, but when I am I will make up for it and give the role my all. 
 
I do my best to reply to pings as soon as I see them, and have 2FA enabled. I am 16 turning 17 in January, however I think I could perform well as a moderator because I strongly weigh my options prior to making a decision. I am very willing to learn and improve if selected for this role, too. 
 
While I do hold a GM position I do not believe it would be a problem; if there were any issues pertaining to Oslo I would not treat the situation any different. I try to be objective no matter what and do the right thing. 
 
I have experience with sensitivity training because of sports, and I'm currently taking a course that deals a lot with psychology.
 
Overall I would look for a fair and reasonable resolution to conflicts in line with what the members of the mod team think. 
 
Thanks for your consideration and good luck to all! 
 
 

Going to apply on the simple basis that I’d previously held the position before and had to step down for irl reasons.
 
I hold no jobs in the league and I don’t plan to hold any other positions either.

I am making a genuine application, I have spent over three and a half years and it is finally time I change my reputation around here. Over this time I have been punished, called a troll and I have been a nuisance to the VHL. I am willing to become a mod and able to take steps into improving myself, which will ultimately improve the league. I know my leash is tight, but sometimes you need to take off the collar to let that dog loose. And instead of going loose as I have previously, I will instead run loose on the evil going on in the VHL. It is my goal to make this league a better place for every single member, person, father, mother and family member who enters it. My availability is pretty well spread out. I have shown myself to be fairly active at nearly all times of the day. 1-9AM PST is not a perfect time zone for my activity, however I am sometimes available around 1-2AM PST and 6-9AM PST. I have been well known to quickly respond to DM's and pings, I have the notifications set on my phone and usually have discord open to hear any pings when I'm on my laptop. With these things combined, my activity levels should be well sufficient for a VHL moderator job. I am there very often, as well as a face the community knows and trusts to be there to help them. 
 
While I do not reach the 20 years old age preference, I believe that I have showed maturity across my three years in the VHL. It is not always present, but it has been there and I will be continuing on with this maturity should I be blessed with the mod job, or should I not be blessed with it. Maturity is something which not only benefits me, but everyone in the league in which I interact with.  I believe with my level of maturity I will be able to sit down with the wrong doers of our league and figure out what can be done to not only improve the situation towards the league, but towards them. I want everyone to feel welcome here, while also making sure everyone is free. The VHL is one of my top priorities.
 
I do not currently hold any jobs in the VHL nor do I plan on holding any in the future that could possibly conflict with my ability to be apart of the mod team. I do see my future in the VHL as somebody the people can look up to and take inspiration from as somebody who turned themselves around from a path of dark and despair to one of a lighter road. I believe in rehabilitation for everyone, while punishments still necessary. It is my goal to improve the VHL, whether I'm a mod or not. Each member should strive for not only a better version of themselves every day, but a better league. 
 
I thank everyone for reading my application, taking me into consideration, and I thank you for making the VHL a better place.

I wasn't around at the time when this occurred itself but the discussion I reviewed indicated that it was definitely a "please stop" look and not a "lets punish everyone" talk.
 
I have given my input internally as to how the steps taken could've been improve and would use this as a learning process for all of us.

Completely respect if it was MEANT to be a “please stop” method. It clearly wasn’t handled as such from the moderator dealing with the issue. It seems like there was a lot of miscommunication amongst the mods, commissioners, GMs, etc. and it turned into something that was not just a “please stop” issue. 
 
I just want this to be a learning experience for everyone. It wasn’t handled the right way, people made mistakes and it’s a time to take a step back and learn how this could have been handled differently.
