Hi, my name is Wundati (Wun for short). I have given this quite some thought and decided that I would like to give back to SourceOP.

A Little About Me
I am currently 19 years old and attending college in San Jose, California. I have been playing TF2 for a little over 6 years now and have been playing on SourceOP servers for around 1 year. I have two inactive steam accounts, which I have migrated from due to account breaches:
https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198076776625 - Original Account (Breached)
https://steamcommunity.com/id/xXProMLGGamerXxxx/ - 2nd Account (Breached)
I also have one inactive Forum account that was linked to my 2nd account.
I have one ban on my current account (that I know of) (https://steamcommunity.com/id/wundati/) for auto balance avoidance.

How I Could Help
While myself and the SOP community look up to our admins and respect them immensely, There is a general consensus that there should be more members on the team. An example that I have personally had happen several times is the slow response time from the admins. Majority of the reports I and others have made to the discord server are not taken care of until after the user in question is long gone. I understand that SOP servers are not the sole things that our admins take care of, so I by no means blame them. I know that work and irl issues can often keep us from contributing. What separates me from other staff is that I have much more free time on my hands. I spend an average of 7 hours per week on 24/7 2Fort and am active during the weekdays. This will allow quicker response times to reports and will reduce general toxicity/rule breaking as an admin will be visible and online.

Another factor I feel will contribute to the team is my outgoing and empathetic personality. I was told that to be an admin, I would "have to be hated". I would like to break that stereotype. From what I have observed, the admins on SourceOP lead through intimidation. This is an effective method, sure, but it has its downsides. I have heard countless players say something along the lines of "I would report it, but it won't make a difference". It hurts me to see a long time player simply give up and feel powerless. My goal is to lead through respect. I want to encourage players to speak up and communicate with one another to help keep the server well monitored even when admins aren't online. I want them to feel empowered, like they make a difference. That's what got me interested in applying in the first place; I didn't feel like I was making a difference.

Finally, I keep a close relationship with other players. I have several SourceOP regulars on my friends list. I want to be the staff member who you can share a laugh with. Someone who you can talk to if you need help. I feel that if an admin had personal connections with players they would be more likely to report other players and help regulate the server.


Conclusion
I am well aware that there is a chance that my application will be denied. I am even prepared for no response at all. To be honest, I was scared to apply. I was scared about what would happen if I failed. Even now, I am still a little nervous, but I know that if I don't try now, I will only regret it later. I hope that my ideas and insight will come in handy to help build a stronger and more supportive community.

If I can answer any additional questions please don't hesitate to shoot me an email at Wundati@gmail.com, or add me on steam and leave a comment. Thanks for reading!]]>

After fiddling with this video for about 2 hours I cannot get it down to a manageable size so I can upload it here on the forums. My internet is trash so I cannot upload this to YouTube without it taking around 2 hours per video. The video is only around a minute long, but I used FRAPS so it's in 30 second intervals. If there is anyway I could just attach the .dem file to an email or send the .avi files, I would gladly do it. If there is nothing that can be done I will remove my post and forget about this whole ordeal. Good day.]]>

I was on Sourceop.com old forum in '11 somewhere. I quit TF2 around the same time, and now I am back. Just found my old account, managed to reset password but the issue is I already signed in with steam account and accidentaly created a new account (this one). Any way to close this account and associate my steam with the old sourceop.com account which is now semi-functional? Old nickname 'ganja'. Whom I contact to solve this matter?

Anyway, greetings everybody. I am intrigued to know if TF2 trade is still breathing.

Cheers, J.]]>

New to Source, but not new to Steam or TF2. I occasionally get the urge to trade, so felt I might as well stop in and introduce myself.

Other games I enjoy include Diablo and P1999 (classic EQ), but I'm up for any PC or PSN gaming. Besides that, I enjoy all sorts of strange music, improving myself, and exploring the cave of the unknown.

Enough about me though, have a wonderful day.]]>

About me

I have been gaming on the PC since the age of 5/6 mainly due to the fact that all of my brothers are older and had been actively playing on the PlayStation and older generation gaming machines much earlier and had moved onto the computer, around the time I started to be interested in what they were playing they had been on what I recall to be Half life CS 1.4 Mod, which is where my gaming life started.

I began to play Counter strike and would barley play any other game, I followed Counter Strike through the generations and have although I had multiple breaks around source release I went on to Call of Duty for sometime, I always came back to counter strike. It's my game. It's all I know!

I am currently 19 years old, just finished college and am now a fully qualified electrician going on electrical engineer. I live in the united kingdom and have the dream of moving to Australia when life takes me there.

My Online experience mainly consists of myself playing with a lot of Americans and have done for the past couple of years, I have no idea why but they're now my friends and wouldn't change that. I am a twitch moderator for Hiko and some of you may know is a Professional Counter Strike player and more recently Twitch Staff along with being a great guy to be around with a good sense of humor.

Why SourceOp?

So I decided that I have been sinking into the depths of Global Offensive recently and thought if I am going to get into the trading scene I would need to join these websites I've seen floating about all these years. All these years they have been for TF2 and now there's so many that incorporate Counter Strike it's unreal! Anyhow I am set on becoming active (hopefully) within the counter strike community on these sorts of forums, when I come to trade regularly I will create a reputation thread where I can keep track of all my trades and is a good profile to show others when you wish to trade with them.

Like I said originally I'm not sure how many people read these but to those who do, Hi and I hope to see you around.

PS: I do not add people on steam that I do not know and I believe this links to my account so please don't feel the need to add me, also level 0 accounts are automatically blocked.]]> First off I would like to simply say Hi, this is basically my introductory thread although I'm not sure how many people read a Misc. section of any forum, however I decided to do it anyways.
