Developer​

Moderator​

Moderators are our first line of defense against hackers, spammers and trolls. Moderators are expected to hop from server to server, keeping an eye on players, making sure they're following the rules, and playing fairly. If this seems like something you'd be interested in, please read the following:

• All applicants must be at least 14 years of age, with a deep familiarity with Minecraft, MCGamer, and all of MCGamers's platforms. Do not lie about your age! If we discover that you lied about your age, you will be fired and banned from applying in the future.
• We generally prefer users with previous Moderator/Admin experience. Users with real life experience in team work environments are also preferred.
  
• We ignore all applicants with 3 or more bans on MCBans, MCBouncer and/or MineBans.
• We ignore all applicants who have current bans on our servers, or bans that are under one year old since the date of initiation.
  • If you have a ban that is one year old or older since the date of initiation, you will be allowed to apply, but are required to say so in the appropriate section.
• Applications with poorly written replies or one sentence replies will be denied.
• Applications that exceed the given length requirements will be denied.
  
• Applications that do not follow the template will be denied.
• All applicants need a microphone that they can use to communicate with players/staff on our TeamSpeak. It is your decision to buy a microphone if you do not have one; it does not guarantee you will be accepted as a moderator.

Make the title of your thread "Username - Moderator Application"
If you have been approved, we'll ask for a "Potential Mod Meeting" over TeamSpeak.

These applications are reviewed by the Senior Moderators and the Administrators. Please do not ask them to review your application.
