Your application has been:

But don't loose hope! After two days you can re-apply which gives you plenty of time to fix up your application and plan it out, as well as use all the advice I am about to give you to make it spot on. Also check out the links at the bottom of this page, trust me they really help.

First of all I do not think you have gone in-depth enough in your description of RP. RP is not about minecraft and infact can be anywhere, in anygame and even real life. Do some research one what Role Play means to you.

You need to give a definition for both Powergaming and Metagaming, just saying you disagree with the concepts does not answer the question. There are many ways to find out what these things are, you could ask a member, do a google search or search through the forums for the definition.

Once you have been accepted on the server, you will be given a soulstone which allows you to teleport back to your home city. When you right click on the soulstone it will begin to teleport you, so if you use this while in combat people will think you are avoiding RP and will post a ban report on you.

To vote you do not just click on the vote button, there are a few other steps which are quite easy to follow. After you have clicked on the vote button you will be re-directed to this page: http://www.minestatus.net/6317-the-lord-of-the-craft/vote Type in your minecraft username in the top section where it says "Minecraft IGN" and then copy the Captcha and write it in the box underneath. If you cannot read the Captcha, press the little button with two arrows on it to get a new image. Then press the vote button; to find your vote number just look at the total number of votes (the number should be next to a little "thumbs up" picture.

Please do not make up lore, the kingdom of Thorag does not exist and your character cannot be a king yet. As a wise person on this server said: "You do not come to Aegis with a developed character, you come to Aegis to develop a character." Which means you come here with a character, and you turn him into something glorious. I want you to include lore from lord of the craft such as people, events of already built towns. You can find all about them in the wiki here: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page

I would like to see at least a PARAGRAPH for each role-play question and make sure for the combat question you abide by the rules of combat for the server. In role-play you will need to warn a villain before engaging in combat. At least a couple of lines from each person is needed for combat to initiate or it is considered a no-rp kill and you can get banned on the server for it. Do not just write:

I suddenly pull out my sword and kill the bandits. Then I ask the elf for money for helping him.

Write a dialogue as well as the actions of all those involved. This goes as well for the shop question, do not just write a single line, write a full scene. Write the actions of all involved in the situation and what they say, how they interact with each other.

I want to see how good you REALLY ARE at RPing and I want you to try as hard as you can when answering these questions.

You have not included a skin. For me to accept you I must be able to view your skin as I need to judge whether it is acceptable for this server.

1. Go in-game and press the “F5” button TWICE. (Not once as this will show the back of your character)

2. Take a screen shot by pressing the "PrntScr" button on a windows computer or press F2 on the keyboard, then go to start => Run and type in this: %appdata%/.minecraft/screenshots

3. Find the screenshot and open it in an image manipulation program such as Paint or Gimp.4. Crop the image so that only the area close to your skin (including the skin) remains.

5. Save the file and go to tinypic.com

6. Upload the file

7. Click ONCE on the text box underneath: "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards"

8. Right click and copy the entire text

9. Paste in your new application

*Note* If you want a tutorial for Macs, please send me a message on the forums.
