Current rank: Builder

Reason for application: I'll try to keep this brief as people do tend to waffle on and repeat themselves in these applications.
Although I have enjoyed the experience of working towards and achieving the rank of builder and the progress I've made on the building side of things, I do find myself getting more and more involved in the social aspect of this server. Getting to know the regulars and helping out newcomers as much as I can has been the side of things I've enjoyed most thus far.
Clearly, applying for operator was the obvious decision if I want to get more involved in the areas of this server that I enjoy most.
Almost all the other applications I've read mention the griefer issue so I won't delve into that other than saying that it is still a major problem and we're nowhere near the "too many cooks spoil the broth" stage yet.

Why you should become an operator:
I do think that this is to a certain extent covered by the previous paragraph as two of the most important things to consider when taking on a role are aptitude for that role in addition to an interest in the types of activities that role will include. The aptitude side of things I suppose I'll have to rely on members of the forum to support me as I haven't had a whole lot of contact with admins for them to gauge that.
Also, I think something worth noting is my desire to do a better job than many of the current operators. That statement isn't intended to be disrespectful as there are many operators who do a fantastic job (several of which I mentioned in my builder application).

Have you been temp-op before?: No

Extra information: I was part of the grief patrol assisting Kascas in his 100 bans in under 4 hours record.

I sarcastically joked about you being Irish (I have Irish people in my family) and clearly you didn't get it as you immediately threatened to report me. Then called me a racist. This was a misunderstanding and I don't how it has any relevance to my app.
