Whitelist Applications - Archive 1

IGN:jazzyjames01
Why: I loved the main server so I think I will like this server too I have been apart of this community for a long time another reason I wish to join this server is because the main server is un populated at the moment.
about you:
I admit I am a kid but I refuse to reveal my EXACT age

I use a windows 8 gaming pc that I got for x-mas

I play basket ball at school but not on any teams

The only thing I can possibly call a job that I have is babysitting my little sister

even though I'm a boy who is "just a kid" I can do a full split

server currency: cheese blocks (aka sponges)

favorite right:If Tiny, you have the right to carve a home within Spawnington, its sewers, or its various hovels, so
long as the outward appearances of the aforementioned builds are not alterd.

im a good builder but I suck at redstone im a good miner and a bad pvper

WOW!!  Our first applicant, yay!!!  

I can evaluate application guides now on this forum, but I will hold off for now because I want my new moderator to give it a shot.  Please stand by while he processes your application.

For quality and training purposes, this conversation may be monitored and recorded, lol. ^^

[moderator:  also, please give him +5 bonus points for being first]

Sorry for being slow, this the first time im doing it xP

Technicality Check - Score: +19%

Your name is appropriate and acceptable for the server. Your grammer is ok with some punctuation errors, but your application is short and could use more expansion in some areas.

Awareness Check - +13%

Your answer is fair, as main server has been down a number of times to its understandable youd want to move xP and I assume the same reasons for joining that one would apply here too =]

Whitelist filler prevention - +2%

You dont answer question 3 in any way which was to explain how your talents, skills (should mention your strengths and weaknesses), etc, can help contribute positively to our server. only thing mentioned that could be related was a broad age range

Creativity Check - +14%

You give 5 facts about yourself that are interesting to see and are different from normal, everyday answers. I especially like the comment about your ability to do the splits xP. Also your facts are sperated nicely so they are easy to read =]#

Rule Awareness - +15%

Yep that rule is correct, and a good one to choose as its not imediately obvious to new players =]

Currency Question Check - +15%

Correct =]

First poster in the forum - +5%

Total Score = 83%

A good score and you are almost there but you just need to add question 3 into your app, which you missed out, and then we can accept you in =] other than that, a great app, we'd be happy to have you join the server when its done ^_^

Beautiful work, Shadow, thank you very much for using my grading guide. Showing the percentage scores isnt necessary, but used correctly can be very helpful for the applicant.

Jazz, i agree you did very good with this new app considering its slightly harder than the one in Main. All it needs is the missing question and you're guaranteed to be in.

forgot about the 3rd question XD
p.s. I edited my white list app to have my answer to question 3

Thank you for you co-operation ^_^ its actually better now we know you can listen to us, we need people like you in the server =]

Bumped your app score up to 91% and you are now whitelisted on the server, hope you have fun on there ^_^

thx

What is your Minecraft username (or "IGN")?

Please explain why you would like to join the Server.

I was apart of the first sister server and would like to rejoin my friends in the new one. After a break of minecraft I am ready to delve back into the wonders and joys of playing.


Please explain how your talents, skills, experience, personality traits, and aspirations can help contribute positively to our server.

I'm a good person, and can help moderate things without mod status. I've been playing since 1.4 beta, and consider myself skilled in many of minecrafts areas of skill except building.


Please list five random facts about yourself that can help differentiate you from other players.

It can be very easy to rinse and repeat the same answers from the previous two questions, so here is your chance to truly differentiate yourself from other players.  List five amazing facts about yourself that make you special or that may be of interest to someone in our community.  For example:

• I row
• i dont have a job
• i go to arizona every year to
• not a linux user 
• i have not designed a game or anything

Or just about anything! Be clever and creative! Now is your time to shine!
Each fact should be listed in bullet-point fashion: at least one sentence per fact per bullet, please.


To ensure you understand your rights and responsibilities on our server, please read the Novice's Creed, and write down one right or responsibility that you enjoy the most.

14.Please refrain from obstructing a player's right to observe cultural holidays, so long as the 
observance is not physically harmful to other player's or builds.




And finally, to confirm that you read the Big Sister Server Quick Guide  please write down the name of the official server currency.

Again, we just need to make sure you opened the guide and can find the answer to this very simple question.

Claire, you don't have to reapply here. You're only kicked off the staff, not the whitelist.  ; (

I was apart of Gunia's for a while, then my sister played. I like gulliver servers and I knew a lot of people on the server.

Well I can catch griefers fairly well, having been a guide on a server that recently closed.

Squrile, that... I just... I don't know what to tell you.

Two big things, though: don't copy and paste -at least not that blatantly - and please make use of bold, italic, and underlined words to make that app a little easier to read. Then I'll give this fancy grading criteria a go.

Burger I'm Claire's brother. Drake thought I should apply as myself instead of going off of Claire's app. Apparently this has caused a lot of confusion as I copied her app only for the questions.

Claire's Brother,
Can you answer three questions for me before we continue?

1) Does Claire have more than one brother, or is it just yourself?

2) Do you know anything about a so-called "Syndicate" incident?

3) Is Claire intending to return in any capacity,  or do you intend to use assume this account permanently?

Till then, I will have to temporarily dewhitelist yours Sisters account until I can be sure how I'm letting.  A moderator should take care of the rest of your application process,  since this does not yet fall under the auspices of an Unbanning Application, given Claire's Syndicate brother was banned under a different server jurisdiction.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

1) Does Claire have more than one brother, or is it just yourself?
I am her younger brother, and only brother.

2) Do you know anything about a so-called "Syndicate" incident?
Yes I do know about the Syndicate incident, that was me. Syndicate came to fruition because explosions were on and when I first logged on my sister was in creative. Taking advantage of the situation (rather poorly I might add) I armed myself with TNT, lava, diamond stuff, and so on. I then proceeded to grief the server with the stuff, and played detective with them to find out where I would strike next. I'm being honest and upfront about all this because I want you to know the good and bad about me, and that maybe you'll see my honesty and allow me to join. My griefing days are over, and i only have the intention to play minecraft with fellow members of the community. I will be happy to answer any other questions you may have.

3) Is Claire intending to return in any capacity, or do you intend to use assume this account permanently?
As of this message being sent Claire has absolutely no intent on returning to the server, or minecraft in general. I will notify you if she changes her mind, but it seems highly unlikely.

In short,
I am her only brother,
I griefed Gunia's old server but have no intention of returning to my old ways.
And Claire's probably never coming back.

Thank you,
James

Thank you for posting the answers to my questions here, James.

I won't post my own answers as they are not relevant -- again, this material will be used by the moderators to process your whitelist application.

Thank you.

Well... you certainly buffed up the sign-up a bit. Except I can still tell a bit of it's pasted

Anywho, having been one of the victims of the whole Syndicate thing (well, technically), I'm not exactly obliged to let you in... but you have fessed up to your crimes, obeyed orders, and made your app very easy to read, so the least I'll do is thank you for that.

But the big trick is whitelisting you... a griefer who took a moderators account, started a witch-hunt (whether on purpose or by accident) as a result of that, presumably made your sister leave the server for quite some time, and generally made a big mess of things. The closest person to commit that kind of offense in my living memory is Dude, who's currently going through a serious unbanning process will never, ever get his mod privileges back as a result, and will be viewed with suspicion by at least one individual for half a year. So deciding whether to whitelist you based on a moderate quality app is, naturally, exceptionally difficult.

So... as much as I hate to put people through more work than I believe they should go through... I think your app could use just a bit more fine-tuning. It's a very close shot, but honestly I'll sleep much easier if you put a different Right from the Novice's Creed in that app, because it still looks copy+pasted from Claire's app and I'd like to be a little more sure you reviewed that, at least.

So, all in all, once you get that one thing edited, I'll whitelist you and we can call this a fresh start. Don't, for your sake, let me down.

Whitelist app? Let's do this
IGN: TVguy25

Why would you want to join the server?: Well, I've been looking around for a long time for a nice Gulliver mod server, and eventually came across the original Gulliver server hosted by Gunia. Eager to finally be able to join a decent server, I quickly applied, and was told by a certain BurgerWarrior that most of the population of the server is now in the "Big Sister" server, and a link was provided. So, here I am, still looking to join a good Gulliver mod server, and this one seems to be what I'm looking for. I've hosted a little Gulliver mod server once, but it was on a Hamachi connection, and was very short lived.

Skills and talents?: Hmm, well, I'm a decent builder. I've noticed in the guide that the server seems to favor builders, and honestly I don't expect to meet the level of skill of which I expect from the server right from the start. But, as time goes on, I plan to eventually learn from the others on the server, and eventually make a grand, beautiful house for my own one day.

Five random facts?:

• I'm currently a sophomore at High School, most of my courses being advanced, and plan to take on a career in chemistry.
  
• I do play a few sports, for instance, I'm a thrower on our schools track and field team, my farthest throws for shot-put and discus being 30'1.5", and 83'6", respectively.
  
• Apparently, when I was two, I almost drowned in a lake. I have no memory of the incident, but from the newspaper article on it (Yes, there was a newspaper article on it, I'd get it, but I'm too lazy ), I followed a dog into the lake. He could swim, I couldn't. apparently, I also got hypothermia from it.
  
• I usually play valve games, like Portal, Team Fortress 2, etc., and have recently gotten into minecraft again. Although I've had it since March 2011, I haven't played much since the summer.
  
• I usually spend most of my time on the interwebz, occasionally going out with friends (we just went bowling   ), but mostly, I simply play games, and go on the occasional YouTube binge
  

Favorite responsibility?: I'd have to go with #20. Usually, I'm a laid back guy, and I really enjoy my gaming experience that way too.

Currency?: A certain solid dairy product that I'm quite fond of
(If you didn't know, I was referring to cheese)

So, that's about if for my Whitelist app, my original one for Gunia's server was quite short and blunt, and I hope that this one made up for it.

(Hopefully) See you all on the server! 

Oh hi, TVguy!  I remember you from over at the Gunia forum, I saw your little app there.  

My, this is SUCH a remarkablly large improvement, I want to indulge and savor it!  So I will be reviewing your whitelist application in a bit, please stand by while I get out my famous red pen [j/k].  XD


Oh and James, Burger is still your reviewer, so please wait for him.  Thank you for fixing your app.  

Hello again TV Guy!  
Well thank you so much for writing such a beautiful application, it makes me proud to know you followed and apparently enjoyed all my instructions and my guide. It shows in the quality of this app vs. what I saw earlier today.  ^^

• IGN Requirement checks out, though now I'm curious to know what kind of nickname you use.  ^^
  
  
• Reasons to join are fantastic -- in fact we recently branched off from Gunia's forums precisely because are visibility was very low.  It still is to some extent, until such time as we can create an MC Forum thread of our own, but that won't happen till our Forge switchover (scheduled last Friday, but delayed due to technical issues). I should also note that we are in fact TWO servers... Big Sister, the stable Gulliver world, and Little Brother, the bleeding edge mod-cycling world that changes every month.  ^^
  
  
• Contributions are thorough and humble, and I like your appreciation for our builder-centric Big Sister server.  I hope you will find enough inspiration to make your beautiful house.  ^^
  
  
• Your five random facts were gorgeously-detailed and interesting to read, it was quite an immersive experience.  Sorry to see you had such a bad incident when you were young, but you survived and thrived!  I also appreciate that you spend time with friends IRL -- despite appearances, I'm a full advocate of spending time doing tangible things with tangible people in the real world, and only spend a portion of your time here for the occasional digital escape.  ^^
  
  
• Your responsibility technically failed as it wasn't posted or paraphrased (was it #20 "having fun", or #20 "I want bread and cheese!"?), but the explanation (which strategically alludes to the former choice above) technically counts as extra credit so you're pretty much en par here. ^^
  
  
• And finally, you pass the cheese test!  This one is a carryover from the Gunia server, with a modern, egalitarian twist. ^^
  

And there you go, you get a passing grade with flying colours, and I applaud this wonderful read!  Woohoo!!  

I don't think I could whitelist you fast enough, but I will try.  Bear in mind that its finals week and school/sleepy time for lots of our school-aged players, so it may be a tad bit lonelier than usual for now.  But during weekends and holidays, we get anywhere between 12-16 players at once, with room for growth.
