Intro (shown before questions)
- You are applying for [helper / trial mod / moderator / admin] on [server].
- Staff will see your answers. We may take [X] days. Silence is a no.
- Approval may be a trial role first, not full permissions.
- Discord login is required so we can see account age and username.
Gates (settings, not questions)
- Must sign in with Discord.
- Minimum account age: 30 days (helpers) or 90 days (admins).
- Must already be a member of the server.
- One open application at a time.
Availability
- Timezone and the hours you can actually take pings in a normal week.
- Can you sit a defined on-duty window, or only when you happen to be online?
- Voice: required, optional, or never for this role.
Prior staff
- Have you been Discord staff elsewhere? Server name and a tag we could message.
- Why did you leave?
- Have you been demoted, blacklisted, or banned from a staff team? What happened.
Scenarios (pick three for helpers, five for mods)
- A member is spamming memes in a ticket channel. What do you do in the next five minutes, and what do you write down.
- A moderator you like is leaking ticket details in public staff chat.
- Someone reports a friend of yours for harassment. You have DMs with both people.
- It is 1am. Three accounts are joining and posting invite links. Who do you ping.
- A new helper used a slur “as a joke” in general. They are popular.
Integrity
- Would you recuse yourself from a ticket involving a friend? When would you not.
- Have you shared screenshots of staff channels or user reports before.
- Anything we will find if we look at your public servers and ban lists.
