What qualifies you to be an admin at Insanity Gaming?
While I'm definitely not the most serious, On the few occasions I've ended up in the position to moderate communities, I'd say I've done well.
I'd also say I tend to notice condemnable behavior, and if I can, I want to help out by addressing it.
(Can't put a number on it, but I definitely play a bunch and have a relatively long history with surf)

One of IG's top talents for surfing. Poke is one of the most down-to-earth people on the server and a pleasure to game and vibe with. I firmly believe he will be a great addition to the admin team.

i see poke on quite regularly and he is a wellknown / longtime member of the community, would make an excellent admin

-Rep My last interaction with the applicant was not a good one.

The applicant had a friend on the server who abused votemute after being warned not to. (Not relitigating this just context.)

After the friend was then punished for the abuse the applicant took it upon themselves to hop into the discord and berate me continuously and try and litigate the ban in the discord even after being told multiple times to take it to the ban appeals part of the forums or make an admin complaint. Unfortunately being an admin means sometimes you have to punish people you like and not punish people you don't like if they don't break any rules, I have concerns based on that interaction that you may not be able to objective when it comes to muting or banning people you may consider friends. We have had to demote admins before due to abusing their admin powers to benefit and protect their friends .

I honestly think you're a great person and standup member of the community, but due to our last interaction and in my opinion your complete overraction due to your friends, (I think) 30 minute ban, I cannot in good faith give you a recommendation to be admin. I hope you can understand my reasoning. Best of luck to you in your application.
