Pocnet's Application

[Killmetro 0]

Hello everyone, this is my application (:

Out-Of-Character:

Minecraft Account Name:

- Pocnet

Did you attend minecon and sign up at the LOTC booth?:

- Sadly, no. Couldn't attend minecon since it was halfway around the world (:

How old are you?:

- 14, but be sure there will be no maturity problems.

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:

- Timezone: GMT+3 / Living in Kuwait, Middle east.

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:

- I do, I'm in an honors english class and my grammar is good :)

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself:

- Not much to say, just a regular guy living in kuwait, I hate sports a lot, which would be a flaw in my in-game character, I'm a huge harry potter fan, can't describe my love. I'm usually relaxed but my mood can change pretty quick, though I never seem to have problems with anyone (:

How much time could you be on the server weekly?:

- Everyday for 1-2 hours because of school, but in weekends/vacation I would be on much more.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.:

- Roleplaying for me is like entering a new world, there are no limits to imagination, you can be anything you ever wanted to be and just let your creativity guide you. I have also RP'd in the MMORPG World of Warcraft, and it was just great, I never really RP'd in minecraft a lot before, but I'm hoping this server will be great, and I know most about RP already.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are.

- Metagaming is when someone IC says something/does something that doesn't fit into the lore/theme of the RP itself, for example a farmer saying that 'obama is my friend' would be considered metagaming. Powergaming is when someone does an action in an RP that doesn't flow with the story, for example 'Pocnet uses his awesome powers and kills you' would be considered Powergaming, since you're getting an unfair advantage over other people.

What do you expect this server will be like?:

- Judging by it's population and players, I think it's going to be a blast, by the looks of it the RP will be amazing.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:

- I've been playing on a survival server for about 10 months now, I left recently because it's owner removed everything that was fun and it turned to be really boring now. Though I know some of my friends there might be applying soon here (:

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?:

- I've read a part of the wiki and the rules and law.

How did you hear about us?:

- Looked on Minecraftforums.net ^_^

Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you?

- I have voted but I closed the tab right after, when i tried voting again it said that I have to wait 24 hours, but i think my number was 4317 since the link was http://minecraftservers.net/vote.php?id=4137

What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?:

- My account is Pocnet, my display name is Magistix

In-Character:

Character Name:

- Weasley

What is your Race?:

- Human

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):

- They say my dad died in a mining accident, which is why I never wanted to be a miner. I was around the age of 5 when he passed away, my mom was so shocked she took her own life. I had to live with my Uncle, who was really kind to me. At the age of 20, I sought to become a mage, but the powers overwhelmed me, and I never continued to discover it's secrets. I now spend my days looking after my crops, what else can a 25 year old farmer do? I left my Uncle when I started looking into the mysteries of the arcane, they say I had my fathers eyes, a dark blue, my uncle was so kind to me, I tend to be just like him around people, giving away some of my bread or melons to the needy. I have a big fear of spiders, I came across one while I was growing some wheat and it ruined my yearly crops, so I had to live off selling melons which take a while to grow. One day I hope to follow the path of mages, but it's yet too early for me, I'll make a living off nature.

Appearance: Dark blue eyes, slight beard, short brown hair, tanned/dark skin.

Your characters ambitions:

- One day, I will become a mage, I will yield the arcane, and I will help the worthy, but before that can be done, I shall make my living off growing crops.

Out in the Wilds, your character comes across a small cottage. Outside, there appears to be an elf struggling combat with two bandits. What does your character do?

- Years of protecting my crops from those pesky zombies and skeletons I have developed a good style of fighting, I wait for the right time and strike one of the bandits from behind, using my hoe as a weapon.

Your character walks up to a shop in the middle of Al'Khazar. "Hello, my good sir!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer?

- "Greetings! I have come to sell my goods and buy from you! *shows owner my crops* For I have wheat to make bread, melons to feed your family, and pumpkins for decoration, all for a good price!"

A screenshot of your skin:

Other Information:

- Can't wait to get into this server, It seems like a great one. I've never RP'd a lot on minecraft, but I have RP'd for a while in world of warcraft, which was great!

Thanks for your time, and have a good day :)

Reviewing.

Denied. You gave a good definition of powergaming but not of metagaming. I get a sense that you would be a good rper and asset to our community-so take the next 48 hours to look over your application and fix what you might perceive as further out of place or needs changing/added on to (there are a few parts!) I don't want to point them out otherwise it would be defeating the purpose. HOWEVER please feel free to ask me any questions via pm and I'll answer them as best as I can.
