This is the only account I still have access to. I don't use it anymore as it was an old forum account, due to the new Steam update (add money to the wallet in order to grant full Steam access).

Do you already have Admin Experience?
Yes, I have quite a lot. I've been around on Steam since 2005 I think. Played a lot of CS:S and Garry's Mod in the past. I had a few communities of my own & also had a lot of Administrative/Moderative jobs in other communities. You can find an overview in the annex, with some additional information.

What experience do you have when it comes to scams and handling scam reports?
None yet, as I haven't been a Trade Moderator before. I do know how the system works, thus I'm willing to help out with processing reports. I'm quite familiar with forums & moderating. I have processed a lot of ban/staff appeals on past communities. Handling scam reports won't be an issue, as I know my way around on boards.

I'm also an anti-fraud enthusiast, which means I make reports myself. I've reported quite a few Steam users on your partner community SteamRep. About 95% of my reports have been accepted, thus meaning I provide correct evidence of possible scams. I've been helping out Steam users on the Steam forums for quite a while too, making them more aware of possible scams and/or scammers. I've also worked with a few popular Steam members, such as NoxInABox. He was under my wing in one of my previous communities.

How experienced are you with what constitutes as a scam? Please explain in detail your understanding.
Quite experienced. I've read dozens of guides about scamming. I got scammed once in the past and since that day I've never been scammed. I've gathered a lot of information about the scam attempts and techniques. I'm quite aware of the possible ways you can get scammed. I'm also very up-to-date about any PayPal scams (such as fake invoices, etc..). I see scamming as one of the most horrible things on the Internet. I also rate it as a criminal offense.

Why do you want to be a Trade Moderator?
I'd like to become a Trade Moderator because I'd love to help you out. I know that most of your Moderators are also Moderators/Administrators of other Trading communities, which means they have a lot of work. I'd like to help them out by processing the reports. I want to keep the FoG community clean of scammers, aswell as the whole Steam community. I find that I'm quite an experienced person, with a lot of maturity. I can also communicate in about 4 languages, which - in some cases - makes it easier. I'm a civil engineering student, which means I like a problem-solving way of thinking. I have a lot of free time, which I can devote to being a Trade Moderator.



Thank you for reading my application. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask at all times. I hope you take my application in consideration.

Thank you for your interest in becoming a FoG Trade Moderator. Unfortunately, at this time, we do not feel a role as a Trade moderator would be the best fit for you. Regardless, thank you for applying!
