Eddie is active and his activity spans different timezones, he also knows the rules and is one of the only people I've seen who actually teaches and does a very good job doing it.

I'm sorry Eddie, but you're by far not ready at all to work on the staff team, even with the current server state. You rely on attention too much and that's going to make you incredibly blind. 
If I remember correctly, after you failed your first trial and were given a sit/punishment that you believed was unfair, you became this huge prick towards the team and specific staff members. You gave me and the rest of the team a terrible experience to be around and became a huge headache for months. You participated in constant harassment of certain staff and ex-staff members both online and offline. You would try your best to publicly shame them for the sake of attention. These people you harassed and purposefully annoyed and unfairly argued against are going to be your colleagues, and I'm very positive they remember very well the nightmare you were for a while. You can't just expect some of them to accept you back into the team in open arms. 
I also really don't doubt a single bit that you'd gossip about staff information or events that might happen behind the scenes for the same reason. I don't think you should be trusted with sensitive information at all.
The only times I see you on the server you're just flying around as a dragon with someone on your back (Yes, there aren't really a lot good of ways to enforce the rules atm, but just playing and flying around doesn't help you either).
A lot of other events that happened regarding you were discussed while I was on the team, but I can't accurately describe them. Either way, my vote is going to be a -1.

TLDR: Can see lots of backstabbing

Id like to thank you for commenting on my application and furthermore would like to address these comments

Indeed i enjoy going on the server and flying around as a dragon, but more than that I am a teacher who, on low population, is either in the classroom waiting for students to come get their work or on the steps enjoying conversations with those who decide to stay there. In higher population i am a teacher who gives actual lessons and lectures about the classes and giving "homework" assignments.
Indeed i was quite resentful and that resentment has long faded, but i do believe for me to be banned for 3 days for simply saying a c-banned player's name is quite unfair I believe. But still I waited and served out my time. I am not expecting anyone to welcome me with open arms, I would like for them to come on the server and see how I have changed from what I previously was. I am also quite curious as to why you'd think I'd gossip or leak staff information. The entire time I was previously on the staff team and even now, that has never popped into my mind. No one nor bribe could make me tell anything about what goes on within staff.

Just wanted to say this, during my time on the staff team, I watched you be very hot and cold towards other staff members, and pick and choose what days you would be nice, and what days you’d be a dickhead. You were always very nice to me, and ofc that behavior was reciprocated from my end, but I’ve witnessed you become very belligerent and volatile towards staff members at the earliest convenience. They may not have shown it, but your incessant polemics and rude behavior became very frustrating and hurtful to others, and I don’t like the idea of someone talking shit about the entire staff team, and then applying to be a part of a team. You clearly have strong oppositions to specific members of the team, so why would you want to put yourself in a position where you would be required to work closely with them. I likely won’t see any reply to this on these forums, so feel free to dm me on discord if you have some sort of rebuttal. Although I doubt there’s any cogent explanation behind your obnoxious and shallow behavior.

Your trial went on for around 5 weeks if memory serves me correct to which you said you'd be busy with work, etc which is totally fine but you were constantly on discord playing other games that weren't GMOD and you were barely cracking 14h when you weren't on LOA. The times you DID sign on, you'd maybe sit around for like 30m to 1h and sign off.  While it's 100x easier now to staff on the server due to low pop and very low expectations, I still don't think you'd be a good fit to be a mod. The times I did witness you in sits, you were always so quick to jump on the gun with banning people, you're supposed to educate players, not punish unless absolutely necessary. Given most of this was months ago, after recently witnessing your behavior after losing a server event and how much of a sour attitude you had shows you have a lot more growing to do. 

Until then -1.

Eddie, last night you complained to me about your ban for something clearly bannable. Why would you want to join a team that you've openly shit talked? You clearly cant take punishment and you expect people want to be given punishment by you? I hope during your trial you'd be met with the same attitude that you've given other trials when they were first starting. 

Some of my favorite moments with you have been you begging me to fly on your back so you can get information out of me. Or during my last few weeks as staff when you got upset I gave you a warning and got a group of people to watch you kill me if I came inside the school walls. Lets not forget that every time you would be an absolute dickhead to me you would say "but I love you Rachel and I know you understand our friendship." 

You even got Marlene to come back from the dead just to -1 you. Embarrassing. -1

Alright I think Eddie would make a fine staff member. But I will say a few things Marlene you abused your admin abilities to the MAX and Rachel you fuckin sucked as a staff member tried banning people on things you didn't know about and would pull people without reading console first (talking about detention stuff) and you'd go on LOA for weeks on end. so, there are things that everyone has done wrong, and Eddie is getting attacked and called names for what? like go back to not commenting on shit because let's be honest you came here just to shit on him. OK back to Eddie yes, I think he'd make a fine staff member since GOM came out he's been nice to new people showed them around and has been on teacher jobs. 
+1 for eddie!!!!!!

I had a conversation with Lana and it was pretty reasonable. I will change my vote to neutral towards +1 (an opportunity does not hurt and hopefully you can prove that you deserve this position

Like, are you okay? A bit contradictory much? First, you say that Marlene was a bad staff member, then that Rachel was a bad staff member, however, Eddie was an amazing staff member and definitely not a player who breaks rules because he is friends with other high prestige minges who join the server because they are friends with some staff members, and they can break rules non-stop because they know they will never get banned!

Now in regards to Eddie..oh where should I start? Oh boy! Weren´t you the one that was telling other staff members that some staff members who were on LOA and were then dismissed from the team were really bad staff members? Aren´t you the one that is now friendly to everyone because you want to have a moderator position? Have some personality at least LMFAO

And Lana are you criticizing Marlene and Rachel because they were not biased and they warned your friends for breaking server rules? You are only nice to staff members like Etlenor who is a staff chat leaker? :D

true i leaked staff chat and got demoted for it
