Take time to expand upon your character, proof-read your application, read up on server lore and rules and fix the problems with your app. Do not repost you application with 24 hours, use this time to build upon it and ensure perfection. Feel free to contact me on either the Teamspeak channel or through the forums if you have any questions, comments or concerns.

1. Your definitions of Powergaming, Metagaming, and Roleplay leave much to be desired. You might have an idea of what we are looking for, but I need you to expand upon the definitions or else adjust your wording to make it more clear that you know what you have the right definition.

2. Your prior RP experience is mostly focused on RPGs and doesn't show too much evidence towards what you actually did within the RPGs. Tell us how you roleplayed within these settings.

3. Your biography is too short. Expand and include actual bits of Asulon and Aegis lore as is appropriate, particularly mentioning what battles your character theoretically participated in. This could pose some issues if you claim to be involved in battles that occured in game, and therefore should be recognized as member of the War Uzg rather than a new Orc who just arrived. It may be pertinent to leave this part out, or even make your character younger and just joining the War Uzg.

4. All of your ORQs are way too short. We expect at least a paragraph in length. Reformatting them so that it is easier to separate question from answer is also important.
