Metagaming and powergaming definitions are plagiarized. You also posted before your ban was up. You are here by banned from applying for ONE MONTH. Post again before your month is up and you will receive a harsher ban. You may apply again May 9, 2015

 

Application incomplete

Bio too short, make it at least 2 full paragraphs

Bio has little server lore

personality traits missing

ambitions are cliche

ambitions do not fit race

weaknesses are not weaknesses

weaknesses need to balance out strengths.

Denied

• Both your metagaming and power-emoting definitions are plagiarised. You've already done so on one of your past applications and were banned for a time, consider this your last warning. Plagiarising again will result in a ban from applying for a period of time.
• Your biography is very bare and lacks details, also the manner it is written in is very bland and emotionless. This is not a good example of what someone on LoTC should be like when writing, please try to spread it out and expand it rather than have three word sentences being common.
• Your biography lacks lore, please add at least two more points from the wiki here.

You may re-apply in 24 hours. If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to PM me!

All include the definitions, you can easily find them out by looking at the wiki but do not copy and paste them. Don't ignore the reasons you've been denied, use them to better your application.

I don't have good Grammer, I have a very good imagination but when I write it on paper it comes out as crap

Practice makes perfect. Also what Andrssn said. Although LoTC can be a good place to enjoy yourself it can be really stressful at times. If you have irl problems I advice you to deal with them first, rather then join LoTC.

What about problems that you can't get rid of?

[Archbishop 1784]

No they are not. If you've read the rules you'd understand why. This leads me to believe you have not. There is no problem with the application its just you keep making the same mistakes and do not improve from your past applications. I don't know what you're expecting to happen. They won't change the application because one person is denied for repeating mistakes and copying.

[Jentos 9425]

Adam is right, it's simply telling you you're errors, mostly plagiarism, simply stop da plagiarism

[Aqua Vita 136]

I'm confused. Is this just a post to whine about the application process? You're not going to get a lot of support from people who had to go through the same exact thing. As far as the application process goes, it's fairly easy. As long as you have some server lore and take more than ten seconds to type out what something means in your own words you're good to go. 

 

However, seeing as you've reacted to getting denied, blaming the staff and wanting to make it easier, I honestly don't think LOTC is right for you. These people have done nothing but try to assist you and you've done nothing but whine about it. If you actually want to play on LOTC, wait for the ban to expire and try again. However, maybe you should listen to the reasons you got denied for last time.

I can't go to school, we are too poor. I don't know very good Engish So Basicly that isn't a reason to deny someone

 

In London it is a legal requirement to go to school or be educated at home,either what you're saying is a blatant lie and if it's true your parents are breaking the law. Even if you're poor, social services will come and sort you out and make sure you at least go to a State school(A free school for people without a lot of wealth or who aren't well educated enough to be in Grammar Schools.) It's stated here in gov.uk.  

1. Overview

You must make sure your child gets a full-time education that meets their needs (eg if they have special educational needs). You can send your child to school or educate them yourself.

Children must get an education between the school term after their 5th birthday and the last Friday in June in the school year they turn 16.

blatant troll

[Lizellan 25]

Mmm... Despite this entire post I still firmly believe the AT should be more critical when it comes to applications of all kinds.

[luv 3469]

You claim you're from London that has free public schools...

[Merkaken 516]

I get you're frustrated with the application, and that it's annoying to get denied, however the solutions are easy. As far as plagiarism goes, it is an easy fix. Copying and pasting a definition and using it as your own is not allowed, as is stated in the rules, even in the application itself. Read over the definition on google, and then write your interpretation of it. If you're having trouble with the biography part, I promise you the Application Team is very friendly and will be willing to help you out with it (Not give you the answers, obviously). Heck, even some of the regular members would be willing to help if you politely asked. If you've done all this, and you're still being denied, unfortunately, this place may not be for you. As harsh as it ma sound, we do hold a standard for accepted applications. We want to see that someone is capable of roleplaying, and contributing to the server, as well as ensure they will not ruin other people's enjoyment. It is not, however, by any means impossible. We can't let people in because they are down on their luck, that wouldn't make any sense.

 

I'd strongly recommend ceasing all the statuses and posts about how you feel the application is unfair. It simply is not. Instead, please try to remain calm and ask politely for help.

[Angmarzku 1251]

I cannot help but wonder if this whole deal is someone's idea to troll out LotC or they are just purely frustrated with getting denied constantly due to bad communication. 

[Ethan the epic 115]

Man I hated the application it sucked and I thought it was strict as hell, but you just gotten keep on swimming, there is light at the end of the tunnel. And if you have grammar problems then practice, if you suffer from learning difficulties then put it in the post. (Don't lie though, I was tempted to say I was dyslexic to make my app easier :p)

[TheJollyPear 128]

This topic was completely unnecessary. You come across as a blatant troll. Multiples have offered their help. Even I have. Yet you continue to not acknowledge them, or simply posting to whine, or get attention.
