Usual character name: Luna Rayne
BYOND username: Kaneie
Discord username (if you are on our discord): Krayon#7061
Recommended by (if applicable): N/A?
Goon servers you play: RP1
Reason for application + game experience (300 word minimum):
I've been playing on Goonstation and SS13 as a whole for just over four months now. When I began, the entire experience was unlike anything else I'd tried before and I was instantly absorbed into the atmosphere. I have to be honest in saying that it was daunting at first, the controls, the mechanics. Knowing so little in such a large place was somewhat discouraging, however talking with others and the welcoming feeling that accompanied that was amazing and kept me playing despite the fact I had no idea what I was doing.
The countless small interactions with others where you can learn, no matter how much you know, is what has driven me to keep learning, because for everything I have learnt along the way is a lesson to be taught to many others coming after me, I doubt I could ever pay back the kindness that was shown to me when I started and to this day, but no matter what it may be, I strive to teach others and share what I know with whoever I talk to whether it's a friend or a new face. My intention for applying for Mentor is that I hope to teach the newer crowd, even some regulars who may be too shy or overwhelmed to ask about a new department, the ways of Goonstation, its wonderful intricacies and of course to give back to the community.
I have a good chunk of knowledge in Science, Engineering and Medical, with some sprinkles of civilian departments and Security on top of that. I especially love Mechcomp and packets as it explores a whole new aspect of the station that newer players may not even touch with a barge pole because of the first learning hurdle behind it. Most notably is the way I've seen some people teach the newer faces in departments like Engineering, it's as if they assume that the players already know what they're doing or that they're familiar with the controls and systems, that personally feels like a slight deterrent to the people who are having a harder time with grasping the basics and need an extra helping nudge, and I feel like I could be a part of that nudge!
Previous bans (while this will not affect your application lying about it will):
