About posting a Moderator Application

This category is a list of all public applications to become Moderator on the Terraria Server. Some may not be listed if the applicant does not want theirs to be public.

Eligibility Requirements

  1. You must have Crew
  2. Your account (in-game) must have been registered more than one month ago
  3. You must be known to the reviewers - if we don’t know who you are, it is likely that you have not established yourself in the community enough
  4. You need to be active enough that you are able to respond to player reports / people violating the rules
  5. You must not have an existing ongoing application
  6. You must not have submitted an application within the last 2 weeks

How to submit

Send your applications to @modappreviewers via PM

Formatting your Application

Your responses to these questions are to give reviewers an idea of how you can fit into the team and into our current schedule, these questions are not meant as a test, you are not marked on your answers. You are not required to write an essay in your responses, you just need to make sure you’ve included all relevant information. For example for Q5, if you don’t have any expectations of the role you don’t need to write anything other than that, however, if you have an idea of what you think the role is, you can write out what in your mind you expect and we will be able to ensure that you understand the role properly before you would choose to take it on. Remember, this is not a test, it’s just information we need to consider before offering anything to you.

Question Notes:

  • Q7 is meant to understand any commitments you may have in the future that will prevent you from carrying out your role as a Moderator.
  • For Q12, anyone will be able to see and comment on your application if you answer yes.

IMPORTANT FORMATTING NOTE

Include each question with the text ### before it to make it a header and put your answer to each question on the line below the question.

How you are reviewed

Once your application is submitted it is expected that you will be making reports on players and we will use those reports to understand:

  • what times you are on
  • if you understand the rules
  • What evidence you think is necessary to take action
  • And if you are active at times when current staff are not

We will get back to you when we are able to provide a response on whether we are able to offer you a position or not. If we end up rejecting your application, do not despair, we will try to provide a reason as to why you have been rejected so that you can try again in the future.

As an applicant your reports must follow the following format, including the style (bold questions, blank line between each answer and the following question). This format overrides any in-place on Discord/the Forum for those who have an active application. You can report players either on Discord or the forum, but do so only in one place. The rules broken and evidence are particularly important as these are supposed to get you to show that you know what evidence is required to prove that someone is breaking the rules you listed. This report format applies whether you post them on the forum or on discord:
