  1. I like Minas, but Denarios, plural Denarii would be good. That was the Roman currency. Also, Asulas and Repitas sound nice in my opinion.
  2. Roleplaying a child= Awesomeness

  3. *You find blood near the Kings Road, and track it back to it's source. You find a body, with a soggy note attached to the robes.* I am writing this very rushed so may not include all words. Guraim is standing infront of me, telling me to hand over my valuables. Should I run? I know I shouldn't fight. I run. *the writing becomes messier*. If I am going to die today, then I must goodbye to friends. Falcon, Jordan, Gladius and Aldron, goodbye. Oh no, is that a hole in the ice? I'll fall in to escape them. It may not work, farewell. *the note ends*

  5. Rage! I haven't been invited to the party! I'm extremely heroic...I've...look, just let me in, alright? EDIT: I actually am pretty heroic. I've saved heaps of people from bandits and me and my Guild, the Knights Legacy, should be chosen to go in. We are a rag-tag group of fighters, please Native, PLEASE!

  8. Woah...50 posts in one day! Omigosh, I lost track of time

  9. Native said to me that with the new intake of members from 2.0 and the trailer they are releasing, there will be a chance for new people to enter the App Team.
  10. Tru dat. Personally, it is this I cannot wait for, not the new map. I've said in my head to myself numerous times, 'How cool would it be to have an RPG'esque friends list in the bottom corner of my screen. Now it is possible, I am UBER excited.
  11. Spout pretty much bridges the gap between client and serverside plugins. It lets you see things that you wouldn't normally be able to see, as Vaq is talking about here, GUI's. Also, with spout, it would allow us to adjust our heights and body builds (I don't think Vaq would be doing it though), and also let's you see the persons RP name above their head.
  12. KL disbanded? Not to my knowledge it didn't? ((Can't log on though, no bandwidth))
  13. Minecraft name Hyperion101 Forum name Mage Hyperion (Subject to change) What do you think are the top five things, that are most important in an application and why? Effort Effort, a very important, and in my opinion, the most important part of any application. A lot of things come under effort, the correct use of english, a good use of formatting and indepth answers to each and every question, never leaving a yes or no answer. Effort is showing that you CARE, that you WANT more than anything to be accepted. On my daily forum travels, I see applications with very poor grammar, and their is no formatting at all, or their is barely any. Reading applications like these would be very hard, as it gives off the vibe that the applicant does not care of the result. If people care about their result, they WILL use correct grammar and WILL make their application appealing to look at and easy to sort through. Originality All applications need to be original, in most areas of the application, although not all. The Orcs killing your parents cliche? It's very cliched, not original at all. If you want your parents to be killed, come up with something original, and not something that the Application Team will read every day. If you want to be an orphan, and you just have to have your parents died, spin an interesting tale about how your father turned mad and pushed your mother into a frozen lake, then guilt slowly killed him. It gives your character more of a backstory, and makes the Application Team smile, because you were original. Originality is also important when describing META/POWERgaming, you should not just copy and paste the information from Wikipedia, as they are the wrong definitions for this server anyway. Also, in the open-answer questions, you should not ust say, "I killed the two bandits then helped the Elf home." First of all, that is powergaming, and something the App Team see very often. Honesty You should not say you are 34 when you are only 12. It gives the App Team the wrong idea of you, and in my opinion, shows that you are not trustworthy. LoTC needs honesty, and people who will admit that they are 12 show us that we can trust them. In my opinion, it does not matter about your age, what matters is maturity and being honest about your age. Also, a lot of people say, I have played Minecraft for 5 years now, when in reality Minecraft has only been alive for around 2. Applicants should not try to be something they are not. Honesty will also apply to the section where applicants are asked 'Did you sign up at the LoTC booth?'. Staff will always know if you are telling the truth in this question, so they should be honest and say 'No, but I would have loved to.' Knowledge of Roleplaying What is LoTC? A roleplaying server. What do you need to do in a roleplaying server? Roleplay. Applicants need to know how to roleplay correctly, and how to refrain from META/POWERgaming. They need to acknowledge that roleplaying is the art of assuming a role in this server, that it isn't getting money or levelling up skills, as it is in most RPG's, it is developing your character and learning from his experiences, because you are PLAYING a ROLE. I believe that the question where it asks you to define Meta/Power gaming also comes under knowledge of Roleplaying, as doing either of those is not roleplaying correctly. They need to know that metagaming is when you use OOC information IC'ly, and that doing so ruins the whole server experience. Imagine what it would be like if the whole server metagamed? Chaos and carnage. They need to know that it isn't WoW and you don't have to have a level 85 Elf that can eat everyone for breakfast and escape from the custody of 10 guards. They have to know this, or they make the server bad for everyone. Knowledge of the Lore and Rules It is very important for applicants to know how to play, and the history behind Aegis. They need to know their Races cities, and that the Orc capital city is not OrcLand, but Sanjezul. They need to know the only races you can play are elves, orcs, humans, dwarves, undeads and ascended, and that you cannot be a tiger (some exceptions). They need to know rules as without them they have no boundaries, and to my best knowledge their is no way to test their understanding of the rules in the current application format. They have to know rules, or they may make a mistake and get themselves banned with no understanding of what they did.
