Ive noticed reading the moderator applications that alot of people are very young, like 11/12, and was wondering how old ya'll are.

I dont think telling your age will harm you to much on the internet, i mean this cant be as bad as posting what you look like on the "how bout some pictures" thread, right?

So what is your age? How old are you?

Ill start off by saying im 16!

Why you should become a moderator:
  
     Dear whoever is reading this and may concern,
Let me introduce myself; I am N8MATTHEWS. I have played on the Opticraft SMP Minecraft server for about 7 months. I have never played on the Classic server, though. This is about why i feel i should be a moderator on the Opticraft SMP Minecraft Server.

    First off, Some of you may be saying, "but N8, you left us for a month for a break, how is that showing loyalty to the server". My response to that is simply, it's not. Leaving the server for a month is not loyal to the server and i am very sorry for doing so. Now i did have my reasons but leaving is not loyal and, ill admit, was kinda selfish. I promise, though, if i do get the honor of becoming a Mod i will stay loyal and won't leave; unless for important things or emergencies like sports, school, or sleep. So if you think "that's not loyalty to the server" then there is my response, and i am very sorry.

    Second off, I believe i should be a mod because I feel like i'm ready. Last time these were open, yes i put in a app, and yes I rejected my own app, because i believed I was not ready to be a moderator; and if i don't believe I can do it I probably would have let all of you down. I feel now that i am ready for the responsibility that comes with being a mod and will try my best to do so. I feel that I can help the community out and keep this server a fun place to play.
 
    Thirdly, I feel that i can contribute as a mod by being there for the people that need it. I'm on a good bit about 1-2 hours a day and really feel like i can help with grief. I'm a very fast learner and can probably memorize the commands needed to do this task very quickly and be able to do them successfully. As a moderator i believe that i can do good by not only looking for /helpop's but also looking in chat to see those people that are new and need help and don't know how to use helpop.

    Last, Most of you know me. I have my enemies and i have my friends. In a community that knows everyone like we do i feel that being promoted in the same area that your friends are can cause issues. Like mods doing things for their friends that shouldn't be, or mods taking their friends requests before others. If i get the honor of becoming a mod i will take helpop's n the order they come, and not put friends before the ones that really need help. If i become a mod, im not going to gloat and brag, i'll take it with a grain of salt and be humbled by the fact I have been trusted enough to work with the best. I won't gloat and prance around, but i will get right to work because I know that with become a moderator a lot of extra weight and responsibility comes with it. I am ready for this challenge and hope i get the change to prove who i am and what i can do for this server.

    Being a moderator to be would be the world, I love this server and love its ideas and goals. Becoming a mod comes with its hard times but I'm ready. I know i will be hated by some and well liked by others but as long as i can manage my job in a fair but un-biased way; things will work out. Moderating comes with extra responsibility which i am ready for. Thank you for your time you took to read this application and I hope you will consider me as a potential candidate as a mod.

                                                                                                                 Sincerely,
                                                                                                                        N8MATTHEWS          
 
    

i really like tekkit and im sure alot of others do too. Now im not saying turn this exact server into a tekkit server but i would like to see opticraft have a tekkit server. I haven't been able to find a tekkit server that i like and really want to play on one since playing tekkit by yourself isn't really fun. Opticraft has one of the best cummunities out there and has very good decision making which could lead to a good tekkit server. I know this idea will probably be shot down but i just thought it was cool.

Yeah, kinda slipped under the radar for most part tonight, but i am back and trust me i got a huge plan to do (Main reason why i am coming back early) but im not gonna ruin the surpise. But lets say it involves the following

-Sky Limit
-Possible death
-Redstone
-Spleef

Haha, i wanna thank my good friend morgan for helping me come up with this idea, and although she isn't on this server (and never will be because i wont let her since she'll just greif the crap out of everything and anything) i still wanna say thanks lol.

Note: I am only selling the spire, if you are interested in anything BUT the dome i will think about it!

1.No mob disguise allowed at all
2.Don't tell me when to start, I'll start when I'm ready
3.Don't break ANY block until I specifically say "GO!"
4.Don't stand on the fence, either way it doesn't help you in the end
5.My decision is final don't argue with me or no one will win*
6.Once you are either Dis-Qualified or get out please use /home deductedlotus to leave, if you don't leave ill stop the game
7.Don't dig out the dirt once you are out, I will stop game immediately.
8.Bring your own shovel, I don't supply them
9.No ender pearls
10.No potions
11.If you can't seem to listen to me I will report you
12.Prizes are given when i am ready, don't bug me about them
13.If you "Island" yourself, you are immediately Dis-Qualified, so don't do that
14.If you stand on the wooden edge, or float on the water, ill Dis-Qualify you and stop the game
15.Stay out of my box

ALL of these rules can be found inside the arena as well.

*=Unless you are a mod or other staff members who i trust.


Ask anyone, go ahead, do it. I give out the biggest prizes ever. I have given out 10k for a round once. I've done 11 Stacks of ender pearls. I've even given out diamond ps stones. So if you want to win big for playing a game, come on over to my arena


This is tricky, Usually its whatever i have on me at the time, or can afford. If you want bigger better prizes you can donate items to me or simply donate money to me in-game. All money given for spleef prizes will be used for that, not for my own personal gain.




Here i will post picture's players have taken during a game, you can personal message em the link or post the picture below, I can also add youtube links if you record a game session.


Apparently, my arena can be very laggy if you don't have a good computer, so if you can't play minecraft around 45-60 FPS usually, like in your home or at spawn, then you might lag a little. There is almost 10 stacks of redstone being powered in my arena at any given time and over 1 million blocks surround the building, so just be careful, and don't blame me for the lag.

The End
