Why do you want to be Staff?: If I'm going to complain about server politics and wax philosophical about Starbound RP, then I may as well do so from a more productive position.

What skills can you bring to the staff team?: Attention to detail, story boarding, building, neutral arbitration.

What area(s) would you be most interested in helping assist with (if you have more than one preference, list in order of highest preference to lowest)?: Conflict resolution, monitoring, Q&A

Have you had prior experience moderating/staffing an online community?: Yes

If so, where? What were your responsibilities?: Almost ten years of experience across several platforms (mostly in-game guilds on RP servers, including Guild Wars (1, Drakkar), EverQuest, etc.). Responsibilities included organizing activities for new players, as well as introducing them to the group's style of roleplay, and mentoring those who struggled in certain areas.

As staff, it is crucial to be visible to the public; on the Forums, through the Discord, and on the Server. Though it is not mandatory to be on these three all the time, do you agree to be as active as possible through these means?: Yep

For better interaction with our users on the Galaxy Citizen Discord server and to take full part in any voice meetings we may have in the Staff Discord, it is recommended that you use a good microphone. Do you possess a microphone (If you do not have a microphone, it will NOT affect your chances for being on Staff)?: Yep

What do you like about this community?: Its flexibility.

What areas would you like to receive help in should you become staff?: Tech apps, and getting a better feel for the perceived level of balance therein.

What are your weaknesses?: Forum presence (look at that post-count, bruh. Nothin.)
