Your ingame username: jpmora

Your year of birth: 1998

Country of residence: Portugal

How long you have been playing SAES: Since 2011 or 2012, can't say for sure between these two.

Qualities you can offer:

• 
  

  Experience
  I've been playing regularly this game and this server for around 8 or 9 years, I've seen the best and the worst examples a community can possess and how to solve it. I've also been leading AA for around 4 years and I've encountered several examples that required some player handling, so I'm no stranger to people rulebreaking and causing troubles.

  
  


• 
  

  Carefully pondering my actions
  Related to my years of leadership, I consider myself someone who does not take rash actions, I always think about all the possible actions I can take to solve a problem and its possible consequences, so as to weight which one has the best outcome. If there's one thing that can cause a terrible mess is a miscalculated action, so I take the effort and time to devise all the possible outcomes, so the action may be as fair and effective as possible, both to the troublemaker and those who suffered from those troubles.

  
  


• 
  

  Teamworker
  I try to do not take actions by myself and always look for external opinions, and advice if it's needed, since a fluid communication between all parts goes a long way to avoid misinterpretations.

  
  


• 
  

  Patience
  I'm very patient in debates and gathering information, so I can spend as much as needed gathering information from players. It is also effective when explaining someone why he/she's being punished, so this player may know why and what he did wrong and avoid it in the future.

  
  

Your weaknesses: I consider myself a regular player, I don't consider myself an exorbitant player who has this flawless quality or that, I possess any same vulnerability as any other, the key is to not let these vulnerabilities mess with your actions as a staff, for instance. They can be real life situations that may affect your judgment and decisions negatively, or your personal opinion about someone. However, I think talking with several people and look for external inputs about something helps mitigate the effect of these outside factors, as it helps seeing the bigger picture.

Preferred Position (CS/SAHA): CS

Do you have Discord Installed: Yes.

Reason for application: I rarely applied for Staff or SAES places over these years, as I decided to focus on reviving a gang which had almost died and I can proudly say it has been accomplished. With this experience gathered and my fellow HQs sharing the load with me, I think I can make use of this experience dealing with community issues, thus I decided it may be a good time to give it a shot. I've the knowledge of how a community should behave in order to keep it fun and orderly.

Server Memberships: AA leader, CLO teniente, CC.

Additional information: Not much left to say. I'm Joo, I'm on the last semester of my Computer Science Bachelor Degree, so I may be a bit busy these weeks, I spend a lot of time gaming and I've been in touch with many communities, I'm a music lover as well.

Previous (legitimate) punishments on the server: None, as far as I recall.
Previous (legitimate) bans: None.

Do you eat pork: Yea, I love them BBQs.
