Your application has been denied and you are being given an official warning for plagiarism:

 

- Your definitions for metagaming and powergaming are both plagiarised from wikipedia:

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metagaming

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powergaming

 

You reasons for denial are:

 

- Your metagaming and powergaming definitions are plagiarised. Please give us their correct meanings in YOUR OWN WORDS. If you need help researching their meanings, I'd recommend looking at this page: http://wiki.lordofthecraft.net/Roleplaying

 

- Your biography is very short, incoherent and cliche. Please include more events and give a lot of details on them to make them more interesting. In the very first few lines, your character's parents die, giving it little-to-no impact since we hadn't even been told anything about them. Then, you talk about a random 'secret society' of knights that nobody has ever heard of. Events like this are very cliche and uncreative; Don't have your character be part of any 'secret societies' that somehow see them valuable without any prior meeting. I'd recommend checking out this guide if you need help making a better biography: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/106864-the-dos-and-do-nots-of-application-biographies/

 

- Your biography doesn't contain any server lore. Please include at least 2 towns or cities from Anthos and mention of at least one of the other races. The Undead haven't exited in over 100 in-game years, meaning your character couldn't possibly have ever encountered them. If you need help finding server lore, check out our official wiki: http://wiki.lordofthecraft.net/

 

- Your ambitions are really confusing: Your character wants to keep the Humans safe, so to do that he wants to destroy them?

 

- You haven't given an answer for your character's weaknesses. Even if they don't have any, you must at least state this.

 

- Your weaknesses aren't really weaknesses; None of these would put your character at a disadvantage, in fact, they would all make him 'more' violent and battle hungry. A weakness must be a unique feature to your character that could put them at a serious disadvantage in particular situations (doesn't necessarily have to be related to combat).

 

The plagiarism was by far the biggest part of this denial. It's honestly a very serious offense, so please refrain from doing it in future. There's also a lot more you need to improve on your app (especially the bio), but as long as you don't plagiarise again you'll have plenty of attempts to get it right, and I'm fairly certain you have what it takes to make an acceptable app. You may re-apply in 24 hours (after this denial). If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to message/PM me!
