You have to wait a long time for admin. My first application took a month to make sure I was responsible.

Dont worry dude. Be confident and just help keep the server clean even without your admin powers (i.e. Demos, "watch your language" comments..)
Staff will notice. They are always watching. Be prepared to wait, it takes forever.

Just a note from the inside... the reason why it takes so long, is because the staff looks for you playing in the servers, and watch your actions.
Each application also has a "forum style" thread going as well - that the staff participates in, makes comments, etc.
If you apply for admin, and never play - you'll never get approved. There are about 30 staff that mingle around the servers, and have input on the applications... keep that in mind, while in game, as well. You never know who may be watching.

If you've ever read the book 1984, Big Brother's got nothing compared to SpawnPoint in surveillance measures.
Even the development team watches with their magic ball. But you didn't hear it from me.

We're not quite that bad Wayetender lol. You just need to appreciate that some of the time we don't know who you are, so we won't instantly grant you admin.
We take admin very seriously and have high expectations of those we give admin to. Once you have applied the best things you can do are:
1. Play on the server you applied on. Kind of obvious, but necessary.
2. Send in demos of cheats. This makes me happy, because I really hate cheats. Here's how: http://www.spawnpoint.com/pdf/reportahacker.pdf
3. Post on the forums. What better way to let us know you are the kind of person we want to give admin to? Maybe you want to know what we are like, either way, join in.

Ok thanks for all of your comments :P, I'll wait and try to do my best and to play "clean" ^^, but actually I dont "language abuse" by swearing so I'm gonna wait thank for all of you!

Finally I didn't get the admin so with all the tips players gave me I'll wait and continue posting and be active, sending demos, etc. That's life.
