Username: johnnklein
Real Name: John Klein
Age: 14
Gender Male
Location: Milwaukee WI (USA)
Time Zone: CST/GMT -6 Hours

About Myself: I am a 14 year old boy with an obsession for minecraft. Outside of minecraft I like talking with friends watching (and making) youtube videos, and reading.

Qualifications: I have zero tolerance for spam on the forums and am constantly unsettled when it sits there for days without action being taken to remove it. I am on the forums frequently even when I can't be in front of my computer thanks to my smartphone. I am also fairly active, I like to help new players and create new posts, both entertaining ones and serious ones. My goal in being a forum moderator is to help the admins, they seem busy enough as it is without having to deal with spam posts and alternate accounts.

Why I deserve this postion: Nobody really deserves to be a moderator, however, my goal is to help people and the admins in keeping the forums clean.

Availability:
-Weekdays: sometimes 4:00PM-10:00PM, when I'm busy 8:00PM-10:00PM (I also check the forums in the morning)
-Weekends/Vacation Days: 9:00AM-11:00 (basically whenever I'm needed)

A note to all who are about to tell me I'm not old enough: I applying to be a FORUM mod, there is no age requirement.

I think you would have a good shot if you met the requirements, this is a pretty good app.

So wait, I don't meet the requirements?

That was for an in-game moderator. Forum moderator rules have no age requirement.

See these posts to get an impression. You were the first one to answer, but didn't contribute anything useful too the topic, but instead tried to nuke them.

Also, please learn the definition of SPAM, before you think about becoming a moderator again. Posting several meaningful threads in a short time span is not SPAM, which refers to the content, not the frequency.

I don't think you would make a good moderator. Maybe in a few years.

No one's gonna listen to you about that because you are obnoxious in game and posting around 6 posts and filling the forums page is considered spamming.

IDK, this dude seems like an awesome guy, and well, I know he is. I just think staff, most importantly forum staff, should be 18+.

It just seems odd having the rules being enforced by someone who is younger then you :X

Just my opinion
