Znes6's Server Application

[Zayden (Znes6) 17]

Out-Of-Character:

Minecraft Account Name:Znes6

Did you attend minecon and sign up at the LOTC booth?: Unfortunately I wasn't able to attend due to a school trip to Carnegie Hall where my band performed.

How old are you?: 14 1/2

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:The United States/GMT-5:00

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Definatelly, I attend a extremely prestigous school which strictly empasises English/gramar. I've written dozens of essays and read numerous books to a point where I think my English skills far surpass exceptional.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself:As stated beforehand I'm 14 and live in Virginia, USA, I love sports, I play on my school's soccer and cross country team, while playing basketball in a house league. I attend Thomas Jefferson High School and I intend to be a military officer when I grow up. (You'll be able to tell my discisions in this application are based off of this) I don't mean to boast or anything but I consider myself relativelly smart, even though in this application it's going to seem as I'm a very formal person, this is because this is an application and I take it very seriously, although I'm a very easy-going guy in real life and will act that way in the server.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?:My daily schedule is quite heavy so I should be able to squeeze in a hour or more on weekdays and 3 or 4 on weekends, so around 15 hours on a good week.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.: Quite frankly I don't that know much, I first got into it earlier this year when I purchased Skyrim and had tons of fun with that. What it means to me is you're put in a scenario based game where you are given a certain path to take, making choices along the way based on your theme, character, etc.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are. Basically it's when you use resources that aren't meant to be with role play. It's a crime in RPG servers and is dealt with accordingly. An example of Metagaming/Powergaming is using the name above someone's minecraft character to identify them, unlike the proper way; basically role playing with them until they feel free to tell their name.

What do you expect this server will be like?: I expect it to be tons of fun where I can basically relax and meet other people. I've watched many videos about Lord of the Craft on youtube so I think I have a good feel on what it would be like. Personally I think role playing would be more interesting than regular minecraft because there's always something new going on.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I've played on many servers but I really on stuck to 3 of them. These included Revalior Gaming, Blueshift-Gaming, and Crimson Craft. Revalior was my first real server I played on, I got to Game Master but quickly found that the server wasn't what I had hoped to find. Blueshift-Gaming was by far my favorite server to this point. I played from the begining of its creation during the Summer of my transition between middle school and high school. I played actively and quickly advanced through the ranks, finally ending up as a Super Admin while also reviewing staff applications alone. I owned a town and was EXTREMELY active on the forums, second only to the owner himself. I still play on the server but it's become repetitive and quite frankly, boring. After spending 7 months on the server I decided that I should step down and now am just a VIP, coming on occasionally. Crimson Craft was my most recent server but after spending 1 month on it I realized it was basically a worse copy of Blueshift because it's owner/staff were ex-blueshift members.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I've spent the past 3 days studying up on the forums and looking at various guides.

How did you hear about us?:Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you? A moderator from Blueshift showed me a new skin a week ago, saying it was for this cool role playing server he played on. He showed me around the server via screen share on skype and since then I have been checking out the forums and youtube videos finally deciding today to make an application. I'm new to minestatus.net but I believe I managed to vote for the server. I was vote 2670 if I remember correctly but I may be wrong.

What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?:Znes6, I try to keep my names the same thing to avoid confusion.
