Title Your Application: Garfield's Developer Application
Garfield - Developer Application - 12/29/2018


Name (Steam Name):
whateverman
Date of joining Revival:
June 10th(around there), 2018
Tell us about yourself:
Hello, I am a 16 year old from the US, who sometimes has just too much time on their hands. I spend that time on learning about programming and recently I began working with school on some projects. I enjoy reading about the SCP universe and hanging out with my friends.
Do you have a microphone? (Please state clarity of this said microphone):

Yes of course. I own a blue yeti.
What role are you taking? (Programmer, Server Configurator, Mapper etc.):
Programmer
Are you applying with prior experience or were you trained by a Development Team member, if so. Who?:

No I do not.
What is your skill level with GLua 1-10 (1-4 Being the basics of GLUA. 5-7 being Programming functions and creating custom scripts or 8-10 being you know almost everything from Configuration to Programming):
Solid 7.
Are you currently a staff member for Revival and if so, what rank and how long?:
No, but I was a Senior Game Maker for about a month.
Have you been a Developer before? If so where and how long?:
N/A
Why do you want to become a developer for Revival? (One Paragraph Min.):
I joined the Revival in the early month of June and there I was given a second home as I spent many hours playing and enjoying the SCP universe given to me. I joined the community, and rose up the ranks in my respective factions. Sadly, once summer came I was forced to abandon Revival due to my obligation for school. This fact is still true, however although I do not have time to participate in the server RP, I do have time to become a developer and build many things for the server.

While enjoying the SCP experience I would frequently question why we had to rely on roleplay aspects of using "'/mes" for things thats could be easily programmed in. As a Developer, it would be my goal to build and create certain things that would make the work of the admins, the players, and the community much easier.

For instance, my clipboard would attempt to solve the problem with command giving direct orders to soldiers. As SOs are frequently confused on what to do once they get out of training, being able to set them all up with orders, and giving them purpose will allow for a better/more serious roleplay experience.

What will you bring to the development team?:
In my work I was able to do the following things, can atleast show a basic understanding of many of these things:
-Networking Function between the server and the client
-Working with functions for server and client
-Using blender for SWEP viewmodels.
-Using LUA and understanding it's syntax.
-Using the GMOD Wiki
-Using DarkRP elements and working with teams
-Working with DFrames and HUDs
-Working with active players on the server
-Fonts
-DScrollBoxes

Can you show/link us your work?(Required):
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1604837271
Are you active on Teamspeak?:
When I was active in the community, I would frequent the TS.
Do you agree to be active on the Development Trello and Kik chat?:
Yes.
Do you understand that abuse of your developer powers will result in an instant blacklist, demotion, and possible Community Ban from the Revival Development Team and platforms of Revival:
Yes, I understand.

Hey there, I saw your clip board and I will be testing it shortly but I would like to know if you have any other work to display. You say you have a lot of different skills especially with client side and server side. Networking functions are also a pretty good thing to know. I want to know if you have anything that showcases all of your skills. Programmer is a serious position and you are expected to know what to do out of the gate. It would also seem that you just made that addon, that's not an issue but its the reason i'm asking to see more work, normally when others apply that put a wide range of things they can do or multiple things they have done before or examples. If you provide more and it's all your work, then I will gladly change my rating.
