My name is Anthony Lyster.

What is Your Timezone?

My Timezone is GMT -0700 (U.S. Pacific Time)

IGN?
My IGN is "ohhhhwow"
Experience as a GM?
Yes, I was a GM on SXMaple which is now known as AxedMS but I am no longer a GM because recently there was a server wipe which caused a loss of all items to all the players of the server and that is a major drag but I do not plan on becoming a GM again on that server because as much fun it was, it was not the ideal server that I wanted to be a GM because the players were not always very nice to the GM's and they cursed at them a lot. Also I am the Co-Owner on a Tekkit server and an Admin on a regular Minecraft server which is a part time occuptaion for me since it requires constant help to other players since there is so much that people need help with all the time. Other than that I am still open to expanding my horizons on how I help people and how quickly and smoothly problems are solved over the game.
How long have you played BoredMS?
I have been playing BoredMS for about three, almost four weeks and those weeks have actually been the most fun that I have ever had playing on a maplestory private server because of how nice the people are and how much help they are willing to give to other players. Also I plan to always be a part of the server because I am a very dedicated person when it comes to a server that I like to play and think is very fun.
Why Do You Like BoredMS?
What I really like about BoredMS is the custom jobs and getting to rebirth and have fun in the FM and leveling at the different bosses because not only is that the obvious point of maplestory but also because it is fun since once you get to level 200 you can rebirth and start again instead of being stuck at level 200 and not being able to anything but fight bosses and not get to level anymore. Also the environment and community of the server is just one of the best I have ever encountered because of all the nice players and their dedication to the game which is really something that helps because without that the game isn't fun and everyone is just is always in a bad mood. On the other hand this server is very up-beat and everyone is very helpful to one another and is willing to help just because they too have fun from helping others.
What would you do as a GM in BoredMS?
As a GM on BoredMS, I would help other players with anything they need help with such as glitches or if they need some advice on something like how to do something or just general questions about the server like where to train and recommending them to other players who can help them with leveling and other things a GM is not allowed to do. Also I would make sure that nobody is abusing the privileges they have and taking necessary steps to ensure the safety of other players on the server that way people can enjoy the server and want to keep coming back to play more and also to increase server population by referrals from players who really like the server.
Why do you think we should choose you?
Honestly I think you guys should choose me for a GM position on the server staff because I love to help other players out when they need it, also I have a lot of leadership experience outside of the server in real life such as the Boy Scouts, and also helping people out with things that they need or have questions on is something that I love to do because I know that after helping them that I have made a difference in their experience in the game because after they get helped, it has basically changed something in the game for them causing them to like the server even more.
How would you deal with potential fights between 2 players and/or staff members?
I would deal with a potential fight between to two players by talking to each of them separately and having each of them tell me what happened in their perspectives, then I would have a talk with them together and have them say both sides of the story at once in a calm manner, finally I would proceed to come up with a group consensus on what we could do to solve the problem, last but not least if it cannot be settled I would contact another GM for help and if that doesn't work then I would report it to Justin but if it can be settled then the last thing would be to have each of them apologize to each other.
Will you quit if we decline your application?
If my application gets denied I will not quit the game because that shows a sign of weakness and that I would not be prepared for the job because I can't take "no" for answer. Also I am the type of guy who is persistent and doesn't quit on something just because somebody told me that at the moment I can't receive or get something because only people who really just have no self dignity would just stop something because they were declined something. Quitting is not something that I intend to do if my application is declined, actually if I get declined it just shows that I need to work on something and that I need to fix something I do so that way I can do better the next time.
Tell Us About yourself
I am 15 years old and I live in San Mateo, California. Currently I hold the rank of an Eagle Scout and also the position of a Junior Assistant Scout Master in my Boy Scout Troop, which is the highest leadership rank that a scout in a troop who is not yet 18 years of age can hold. As far as sports and extracurricular activities go I play soccer, tennis, and baseball all of which are for the teams at my High School. In high school I currently am a sophomore and I am also an active member of the student body. On my spare time I love to play maplestory and minecraft survival games servers. Also I love to go camping with my family and the Boy Scouts and also love to spend time in the outdoors having airsoft and paintball wars with my friends when I have free time. From time to time I also help my friend make YouTube videos by editing them for him and adding in music and other cool little side-effects to spice up his videos. I also have a little YouTube project of my own going, I am working on an intro for my channel which is taking an extensive amount of time and I also am almost done with the background for my channel, and when all of that is done then I can start making videos which is something I can't wait for. Also I play guitar, clarinet, alto-saxophone, piano, and I am currently learning how to play the violin. My 1 year anniversary with my girlfriend is actually coming up in November and I can't wait to celebrate the full year of good times and fun we have had together, she is literally my everything, without her I would not have the self-esteem that I do today. On top of that I also recently quit a bad habit that I acquired of smoking which basically consumed my physical condition and put me in no way ready to play sports this year but I was able to actually suppress my addiction and I have been sober for about 5 months now. Life is full of ups and downs but isn't that why it's referred to as a roller coaster? - Anthony Lyster

Thank You for sparing some time and reading my application. Also I am willing to take in any criticism and fix it.

Make sure you played for 2 weeks because that's a requirement for applying for GM and make sure you put effort into your GM app because it looks like right now you didn't even put effort into it by taking your time and use good words of choice so fix that and you might get accepted!

NP bro

I'm impressed. Good job on the application. I like how you responded to the critisims in such a calm, cool way, and made major improvements. It's always good to be open to new ideas, as well as making changes to benefit you. This might be my favorite. You have some hard rivals. All I can say is to stay active, make sure the GameMasters know you, and continue helping others as you are now. I hope you go further in the process.

Go for it.
