Additional Comments:

I've been here long enough where I know all the systems relatively well. I've been helping newer assistants as they have joined learn the ropes, how to do things and work in the staff board.

Here is all the staff work I've done in the last 3 months:

I do a TON of staff work, there is not a lot of things duty wise that I don't know how to do. I'm good at not putting out bad information. I think with all the new guys trying to become assistants, me being (besides Tetsu) the most senior assistant around these parts.

Now. I know i'm not well liked by a lot of people. I think that's fine. I annoy people, I frustrate people. I'm often the voice of dissent. But personally, I think it's good to have someone who will critically review things and won't just bark yes when its time to review things. I always however, have good intentions and want the site to do well.

You're frequently insubordinate, temperamental, argumentative, and lately have been causing a great deal of trouble with Tech, plus you have exceedingly little respect for any authority if you don't agree with them.

Your system mastery is fine, your roleplay is solid, but as your assigned Moderator I can't in good conscience recommend you for promotion. I think you're not ready, and that you need more time to mellow out.

That being said, if the members of Head Staff disagree with my assessment and feel you can and should in fact become a Moderator, then that's their decision.

It's more like I show no respect for authority that doesn't respect me or uses arguments from authority to justify their position. I understand rank and discipline just fine. End of the day however this is an rp site and not the military. I don't equate someone's ability to contribute to the site at a higher capacity as reason for them to have any sort of actual authoritative power over me. Especially when they use that to try and tell me how to think or feel. If someone wants me to behave differently, they need to justify their position to me and explain their premise.

End of the day I believe a bad idea is a bad idea and a good idea is a good idea. If something to me is unjust I treat it as such and hold that ground unless the premise for my reasoning is refuted.

To the point, if being argumentative, having your own independent head on your shoulders and getting into arguments/causing drama with people on the site is a reason to bar someone from staff. I don't believe we would have any staff members to be honest.

End of the day I appreciate your input.

It always takes so much time to put thoughts together when it comes to trying to define behavior.

Having an independent head is fantastic. It leads to a lot of process, and allows people to see different perspectives that they might not have considered before. However, a very important point is that even if that leads to disagreements, arguments shouldn’t necessarily break out. Sometimes they happen, but people should be able to regularly disagree while only rarely reaching arguments and causing drama.

That’s why it is a bit disturbing when you’re involved in conflicts that have escalated too much, Snow. There are so many kinder, more considerate ways to handle situations. I don't like the fact that "someone had a fight with Snow" doesn't ever surprise me.

If I recall, and I apologize if I am misremembering this, but I am under the impression that you’re like me and don’t appreciate when people blatantly (or even subtlety, actually) use advantageous OOC information or personal feelings when making IC posts. Despite this, I regularly see you typing out your contempt in one way or another in your IC post.

In OOC posts, I also see places where you casually insult or write in a way that would obviously agitate the people you’re referring to. The language and tone is strong enough where I am not shocked when the people you’re talking about get upset with you later. The main problem is that there are so many ways to resolve issues, but one of your first instincts is to get in a good gibe somewhere. That, or parade around how much more reasonable, logical, or effective you are. You might do it in your posts, in the c-box, or wherever you might find the opportunity.

I like how much community work you've done. I like when you get in a mentoring mindset with a new member and invite them to big RP interactions. I also like when you aren't afraid to disagree.

Those are all things you're able to do right now, but Snow, am I being unreasonable when I say that I would like for you to be more considerate? Is it impossible for you to both disagree and not get heated with people? Are you able to recognize when you're in the middle of an argument that is pointless, that gibes will only make worse, and can be ended by kindly walking away or changing approaches?

I really hope that you can be gentler with people and situations. I hope that "finding a way for everyone to feel better" becomes part of the good intentions you have. If you can work on that, I would greatly appreciate it. For now, this is my stance for things as they are now, and I hope you understand my reasoning.

1/2, denied.

"You do your job well but you're an asshole" I can work on that. What can I start doing right now, that in your eyes, make me a acceptable candidate for mod in the future when I will seemingly reapply?

Not a flattering paraphrase, but alright.

Mmm... I don't want you to feel like I'm giving you a checklist of things to do. A scavenger hunt for goodness or whatever. However, I also don't want to leave you with some vague riddle, so I'll put something concrete.

Things I Appreciate Seeing Staff (and People in General) Do:
Peacefully resolving their own conflicts
Helping to deescalate conflicts they aren't involved in
Privately offering to help people
Recognizing personal errors and apologizing
Doing nice things out of the blue (pun intended)
Being genuinely respectful with anyone
Being patient
Willingness and ability to set things aside to discuss later
Not being vengeful

I suppose it's hard to check up or report on these sorts of things without coming off as phony, but I think people get a sense for when they're seeing genuine gestures.
