Why do you want to be a SteamRep moderator, and what makes you feel you're a good candidate?

I'm known as being a level-headed individual, and highly-analytical and impartial in my arbitration duties. I've handled countless instances of scammers against our community, and have dealt and reported many first-hand (primarily to Valve and bp.tf Trust). Being a SteamRep moderator would fall in-line with things I'm already doing for EGC.​

Past administrative experience:

Former admin and current proprietor of SteamRep Friend "Endless Gamers"​

​

List Steam trading communities you are / have been active on and in what capacity (user, mod, admin)

Endless Gamers Community (Proprietor) -- We're in the process of consolidating to Discord, so our website is unavailable to show my online profile.​

Have you ever been banned from another community? If so, what happened?

Not that I'm aware of.​

Other questions or comments:

Would being a SteamRep moderator conflict with responsibilities of running a gaming community, or have there been precedents in the past of individuals that have successfully done both?​

Hello! I'm very sorry about the delayed response to your application. Please note that your application is now under review.

To answer your question:

As long as you have the time to commit to both without issue then it is not a problem. Many people on our staff (myself included) have managed gaming communities while also working at Steamrep. If there were any cases that could be perceived as a conflict of interest, you would recuse yourself from those cases and let a different staff member handle them.

Accepted! Welcome to the team!!!
