― About Bats ―
The Bats community started in November of 2013 with the goal of creating a mature place where our members can play without fear of disrespectful behavior. Currently, our group has twenty-nine official members from all over the world. These members have a wide variety of play styles and have built everything from aesthetic bases and cities to redstone contraptions and advanced farms.
Although the community started as just a place for people to play Minecraft together, many lasting friendships and acquaintances have been forged in our community and our Skype chat group has become an important (and currently the most active) part of our community. There are frequently people on there talking about Minecraft, gaming in general, school, and anything else of interest.
Over time, many of our members have become too busy to play Minecraft often and the server has become quieter than we would like. We're eager to bring in new members to refill the ranks of active players and bring fresh faces and ideas into the community.
If you are looking for a community oriented server to join, we encourage you to apply!
― Extra Details ―
Here is an album of some of the things our members have built on our current map. This map was created on November 15, 2014. We have no plan to start a new map any time soon.
We're playing in the 1.9 snapshots, 15w46a currently. We are not specifically a snapshot server and we do not update instantly when new snapshots are released. I don't like doing rollbacks and so far have never needed to because I wait to make sure a snapshot is stable before I upgrade.
We play vanilla: no mods or plugins of any kind
Important decisions that affect the Bats community are voted on by all members. It is essential to our continued success to have members who are active in helping build and maintain the community. There is no commitment to stay long term, but we do ask that you not apply unless you are looking for a community to be a part of long term.
― Rules ―
The hope is that most of these rules are obvious; they have rarely needed to be enforced and we would like to keep it that way. The basic principle is to be respectful. This is what that means to us:
- No griefing or stealing. You are expected to treat the other players, their bases, and their items with respect at all times.
- No cheating or hacking. Mods that optimize or personalize the game are fine. Fly hacks and other mods that defeat the point of vanilla survival are not.
- No racism, sexism, or religious intolerance. If someone feels they are being treated differently from their fellows because of their race, sex, religion, etc., then that is a problem.
- No rudeness, disrespectful language, or excessive cursing. This is a mature server, inappropriate and immature behavior is not tolerated.
- No killing other players at random. PvP is enabled, but if someone does not want to be killed, do not kill them.
- Clean up after yourself! This includes everything from creeper holes to floating trees. If you cannot fix the damage you caused to someone else's base, it is polite to leave a sign and some diamonds so they know you care.
- Pranking is allowed, but if someone requests that they not be pranked, don’t prank them!
- Do not build close to another person without their permission.
- Remember you are playing with a diverse group of people. Something that may be a joke to one person may be far more serious to another; you must be mindful of how your actions affect the people around you.
It is worth noting here that if there is ever a situation where greifing took place, a server backup (made daily) would be loaded. This has never been necessary.
― Frequent Questions ―
- How many people are usually online? The number of players online varies with the time of day and the schedules of our members. Currently there are usually 0-2 people online at any given time. This is not a server that is constantly flooded with people. It used to be a lot more active, but some of our members have gotten tied up in IRL things and haven't had as much time to play, so activity has been dropping. The hope is that bringing in new players will help re-energize the server. It's more fun to play when there are other people around!
- What ages? Most of our members are between 16 and 20 years old, but we also have members as young as 14 and as old as 28.
- Can I record videos on the server? Absolutely! We are not a Youtube based community, but we do allow our members to make videos on the server!
- How long have you had the current world? We are currently on our second map, which started on November 15, 2014.
- Will there be any server wide events? Yes, we try to have semi-regular events, including build projects on the server and PvP events. The frequency is up to the community.
- What kind of server? The BATS server is up 24/7 running on a Zombie Pigman (4.5 GB) server hosted through Creeperhost. The server is located in Buffalo, NY, USA.
- When will we find out if we are accepted? Please remember that the applications are not reviewed by a single person. Our entire community is allowed to discuss and vote on new applications, so reviewing applications can take 72 hours from the time I post that your application is being reviewed.
- Why wasn't I accepted? This decision is based on feedback from many people, so there is never a single reason for rejecting an application. A large part of our vote is based on whether we think you will fit into our community. A rejection does not mean we hate you and we do hope that you find a server to play on, even if it isn't our server.
― How to Apply ―
To apply, please fill out the application below and post it on this thread. If for any reason, you cannot post it, you may PM the application to “Piper1618” (this account). Note that Skype is required for communication, but a microphone is not. When we begin reviewing a batch of applications, I will post a message as a marker and will edit it to say when we have finished reviewing the applications. If you are accepted, I will send you a private message to notify you and ask for your Skype name so I can add you to the community chat. If you do not receive a private message, then it means that unfortunately you were not accepted.
There is no formula for writing an application that will be accepted, but here are some things to consider. Put time into your application. If it looks like your application was written quickly or carelessly, we will not be impressed by it. Also, make sure your application shows us your personality. One of the main things we want to make sure of is that new members are going to fit in well with our community, so if we don't know much about you after reading your application, we're not likely to accept you.

*sigh* Although I have been playing since 1.2, I have not been on a server that has lasted long enough for me to finish a build. I do have some awesome plans though
Write a paragraph or more about yourself. Here is a GUIDE to help you:
• Tell us a little about yourself (personality, hobbies, etc).
• Why do you want to join the server?
• What do you expect from a gaming community like ours?
• How long have you been playing Minecraft?
• What do you enjoy most about playing Minecraft?
• What other survival Minecraft have you played (singleplayer or MULTIPLAYER)?
• How often will you likely be online if you are ACCEPTED?
• Do you have questions or CONCERNS about the server?
I love playing Minecraft. Love it. I have played since 1.2 and I haven't taken more than a month break from it. I get teased all the time at school for playing the game so much, but that doesn't bother me because the people that make fun of me play clash of clans, so... they obviously don't know what a quality video game is haha. Other than Minecraft, in the fall, I play soccer, in the winter, I do cross country skiing and snowboarding, and in the spring, I do track and field. As I have said, all of the servers that I have played on have either become too inactive, or just shut down before I have gotten the chance to build anything, and more than anything else, I just want a solid community full of Minecrafters where I can actually have something to show for myself. I'm embarrassed right now that I have nothing to show for all of my years playing my favorite game. I expect this server to last a long time, as Marv has told me a lot about it. He has really made me envious. The thing that I love most about minecraft is how relaxing it can be. This may sound wierd, but I love digging giant holes. Just for no reason, I will build a giant quarry for no reason other than to relax. I have really only played SMP. I have tried to play single player because I have complete control over it, but it just doesn't feel the same. I need to feel like I am doing something for a community as a whole, not just for myself. All of the farms that I make are almost pointless then. If I am accepted, considering I play a lot of sports, I would probably only be able to play a couple hours a day on the weekdays, but on the weekends, I go all out. The one concern I have about this is that you may vote me off just because of my age. Although I am only 14, pretend I am not. I have been on many servers and even talked with many players from those servers and when they found out that I am 14, they almost always say that they thought I was like 17 or so. ∂
Edit: I should probably mention that I will be 15 in February.
Write a paragraph or more about yourself. Here is a guide to help you:
My name is CerberusMC, but most people call me Cerby or CJ. Most of my free time is dedicated to gaming either on my PC, or PS4. I enjoy seeing new places, and love to travel with my friends and family. I ski, and play American football too. Skiing is a sport I really enjoy, the wind in your face, the sound of snow creaking underneath your skis, it’s great! I am a person that puts the community first, I always enjoy helping people, and would rather be helping others, than doing things for my self. I am a freshman in High School, in a small town in upstate New York. I enjoy hanging with friends, and doing things together. Lastly, I am really into CAD, and Technical drawing. I enjoy all my tech classes, and hope one day to be a CAD engineer, or architect.
I want to join the server because I want a community that understands the technical side of Minecraft, and can have a good time. It is hard to find a server out there that will understand what I mean when I say, “Did you see that redstone device that Etho built?” or “Do you understand how that _____ works on SethBling’s latest episode?” I have watched a lot of Qeth’s LPs and have seen some of the builds, and the events that the server holds. I really enjoy working as a community on large or small scale builds, and enjoy attending events like UHC, Nail, ETC.
All I expect is to have a good time, be active, and be a community. I am here to play a game, and want to have a small family here that I can trust, and I know will be there if I need help. Most importantly, I want to have fun. I find it much more fun playing Minecraft with a group that understands each other.
I started Minecraft around the time that 1.2 released. I played the free classic version for a month or two before then.
What I most enjoy most about Minecraft is that there are endless possibilities. I also like the ability to play as a group, or solo as you wish. Lastly I enjoy the technical side of the game, like the ability to make a working PC in the game, or a calculator.
I played SSP for the first 6-8 months after getting the game. After that, I switched to multiplayer, playing on public semi-vanilla servers, then SMP servers. I have played on many SMP servers that either have cheating admins, no community, or have shut down.
Depending on my school schedule, it can fluctuate. Usually I am on 1-3 hours a night on weekdays, and almost all day on weekends.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my application. I hope to see you guys soon!

EDIT: We have finished reviewing all the applications up to this point and have sent all acceptance messages. If you have not received a private message from me, then you were unfortunately not accepted.
What country do you live in? United States of America
Have you ever been banned from a Minecraft server? If so, explain why: No
Give us some examples of things you've built, preferably including pictures or videos: I never took screenshots or videos of my builds, but once I built a tower from bedrock to the world height (256) in the bay of an ocean. It was a 100% legitimate build. The tower was 80 something by 80 something.
Write a paragraph or more about yourself: I like to joke around a lot and have fun. I'm a stoner, though I wont push others to do any drugs/alcohol/whatever. I want to join this server because I've been looking for a good server to join for a few weeks. The last server I was on just sort of died off. I'm really just hoping to find a friendly community to play Minecraft with. I've been playing Minecraft since infdev. My favorite thing about playing Minecraft is that I can just escape reality and be creative. It's been years since I started playing Minecraft, so I've been through about a million worlds and at least 20 different servers. If I'm accepted, I plan to play on a daily basis for many many hours at a time. (Until I can find a job, which I will probably work 5 days out of the week.) I don't have any questions or concerns at the moment. I may change this in the future, unless I'm accepted before I think of anything.
Thanks for taking the time to read my application. If you have any questions for me, just let me know.

Write a paragraph or more about yourself. Here is a guide to help you:
• Tell us a little about yourself (personality, hobbies, etc). well i love to box. im number one in my city. i have a funny personality i like joking around and making people smile.
• Why do you want to join the server? i have been on the search for a good private vanilla server, but everytime i join one theres always a problem. such as cheating,bad builds, no one plays. i could go on forever. then i stumbled across this. after reading about it and watching some videos a couple of your members posted i was amazed at it. this is what i have been looking for, a server where i can just play minecraft with new friends and not worry about stuff being stolen or builds getting destroyed.
• What do you expect from a gaming community like ours? i expect nice players, fantastic builds,active community and in general just a fun time
• How long have you been playing Minecraft? sine beta
• What do you enjoy most about playing Minecraft? well i love to pvp. it has to be the most entertaining for me next to building.
• What other survival Minecraft have you played (singleplayer or multiplayer)? i have just ( today) beat the dragon on my countless survival worlds. and im getting bored i miss the multiplayer community. i have also had the opportunity to run my own minecraft server vanilla and a public one.
• How often will you likely be online if you are accepted? i will be on everyday for a good amount of time.
• Do you have questions or concerns about the server? do you reply to the person even if declined entry of the server?

Go to middle school in USA. I have been playing MC for 1 and a half year now. I enjoy minecraft so much because of the friendly community and playing pure vanilla minecraft with friends. I have played SMP on the Diamond Shaf server. Even though there are a few plugins, it ruins the vanilla experience for me. I'll try to be on everyday, but ill take a few breaks here and there. Your server looks great and i hope i can join! P.S. it is pure vanilla right?
Have you ever been banned from a Minecraft server? If so, explain why: Never. I usually only play private home hosted servers with a couple of friends.
Give us some examples of things you've built, preferably including pictures or videos: http://legitpotato98.imgur.com/all All of these were built in creative, but I sure can build with the exact same skill in survival.

I'm a 16 year old sophomore living in Billings, Montana. I'm shy in and around crowds, but in a home environment I'm fine (Skype I usually don't have any trouble with). I love being around friends and gaming with them. But, ever since high school hit, none of them have really had time to hang on Minecraft or anything, and playing by yourself kinda sucks Anyway, my hobbies are gaming (not just PC but console as well), playing goalkeeper in soccer, and, finally, drumming, which is my biggest hobby as of now. I would like to join the server to have a nice community to go to after a stressful day of school and just hang and talk. What do I expect from a gaming community? Well, just a bunch of awesome people that want to hang and play games for a while. Nothing major, no real big expectations other than to log on and play. I've been playing Minecraft for around...uh, 3-5 years or something (no clue :P). The thing I enjoy most about this game is 1. building 2. the relaxing music. For survival Minecraft, I normally only played with friends and when I need to brainstorm a project for creative. I do know a lot of the tricks of survival and do just fine in it. If I were to be accepted, I normally play anywhere from 1-4 hours a day, always after school. I normally log on anytime from 4pm-9pm and play until 10pm (mountain time). Anyway, thanks for checking out my application! Be awesome to be part of an SMP community!

Give us some examples of things you've built, preferably including pictures or videos: i have built numerous mob grinders (some of which my own design) Enderman Farms, i have made some pixel art. attached is a pretty low quality pic of an Enderman farm I made on the Xbox 360 edition before i had pc. and currently i am working on a hobbit hole base on my single player series. heres a link to my imgur which has a few of my builds on it - http://imhecheslevokian.imgur.com/all/

My Name is Jonathan or Hech, I Like to Record youtube videos and mostly i play Minecraft, i also enjoy the outdoors and cycling/biking. in terms of my age, I cannot blend in with others my age, i just can't stand the immaturity.
I Would like to join the server because i enjoy watching the videos made on it and have been looking for a community to work with for quite some time (getting a little bored of Single Player...). and i would also like to record with other people.
I Have been playing Minecraft Since the 1.0 update in 2011, been enjoying it ever since
The thing i enjoy most about Minecraft is the amount of imagination you can use in general. even after almost 4 years of me playing this game i am still finding cool things out, thats what i enjoy most about this game.
I have played Single player, i was on a whitelisted multiplayer server for a few days about a year ago, but left when i found out how immature everyone was (stealing stuff, swearing, etc.)
If i was accepted i would be on as much as possible, at least an hour every day, unless i have to go somewhere and don't have access to my computer.
I Myself have No Questions involving The Server, as I Already know how great this server is and how much of a Community it is, just by the Videos i have seen on it!
Thank you for reading my Application, even if i am not accepted i will definitely still watch every episode you guys upload from this server. Good luck to every other Applicant Have a Nice day!

Other than Minecraft, in the fall, I play soccer, in the winter, I do cross country skiing and snowboarding, and in the spring, I do track and field. As I have said, all of the servers that I have played on have either become too inactive, or just shut down before I have gotten the chance to build anything, and more than anything else, I just want a solid community full of Minecrafters where I can actually have something to show for myself. I'm embarrassed right now that I have nothing to show for all of my years playing my favorite game. I expect this server to last a long time, as Marv has told me a lot about it. He has really made me envious. The thing that I love most about minecraft is how relaxing it can be. This may sound wierd, but I love digging giant holes. Just for no reason, I will build a giant quarry for no reason other than to relax. I have really only played SMP. I have tried to play single player because I have complete control over it, but it just doesn't feel the same. I need to feel like I am doing something for a community as a whole, not just for myself. All of the farms that I make are almost pointless then. If I am accepted, considering I play a lot of sports, I would probably only be able to play a couple hours a day on the weekdays, but on the weekends, I go all out. The one concern I have about this is that you may vote me off just because of my age. Although I am only 14, pretend I am not. I have been on many servers and even talked with many players from those servers and when they found out that I am 14, they almost always say that they thought I was like 17 or so. ∂
Edit: I should probably mention that I will be 15 in February.

Have you ever been banned from a Minecraft server? If so, explain why:
I will not lie, yes, I have been banned from my friend’s server after an argument over a reset, he banned me.
Give us some examples of things you've built, preferably including pictures or videos:
Small little house design, was going to make it into a village, but never did: http://imgur.com/a/oqUag
Base I had started on another SMP server, they closed: http://imgur.com/a/UYgVh
First Image is what I like to call the disco beacon, the second is a prototype to a auto sorter I am going to build: http://imgur.com/VZzSLB6,4pYHHGP
Prototype of an autosmelter, I am planning on fixing it up soon, thought of a better idea: http://imgur.com/a/pcg17
A start of a floating base, had added more since this picture but have lost the world: http://imgur.com/a/Qfm8T
Lastly, I have a youtube channel, I am planning on recording. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoXNr5fT7_yNp9-2LDKfcjA
Write a paragraph or more about yourself. Here is a guide to help you:
My name is CerberusMC, but most people call me Cerby or CJ. Most of my free time is dedicated to gaming either on my PC, or PS4. I enjoy seeing new places, and love to travel with my friends and family. I ski, and play American football too. Skiing is a sport I really enjoy, the wind in your face, the sound of snow creaking underneath your skis, it’s great! I am a person that puts the community first, I always enjoy helping people, and would rather be helping others, than doing things for my self. I am a freshman in High School, in a small town in upstate New York. I enjoy hanging with friends, and doing things together. Lastly, I am really into CAD, and Technical drawing. I enjoy all my tech classes, and hope one day to be a CAD engineer, or architect.
I want to join the server because I want a community that understands the technical side of Minecraft, and can have a good time. It is hard to find a server out there that will understand what I mean when I say, “Did you see that redstone device that Etho built?” or “Do you understand how that _____ works on SethBling’s latest episode?” I have watched a lot of Qeth’s LPs and have seen some of the builds, and the events that the server holds. I really enjoy working as a community on large or small scale builds, and enjoy attending events like UHC, Nail, ETC.
All I expect is to have a good time, be active, and be a community. I am here to play a game, and want to have a small family here that I can trust, and I know will be there if I need help. Most importantly, I want to have fun. I find it much more fun playing Minecraft with a group that understands each other.
I started Minecraft around the time that 1.2 released. I played the free classic version for a month or two before then.
What I most enjoy most about Minecraft is that there are endless possibilities. I also like the ability to play as a group, or solo as you wish. Lastly I enjoy the technical side of the game, like the ability to make a working PC in the game, or a calculator.
I played SSP for the first 6-8 months after getting the game. After that, I switched to multiplayer, playing on public semi-vanilla servers, then SMP servers. I have played on many SMP servers that either have cheating admins, no community, or have shut down.
Depending on my school schedule, it can fluctuate. Usually I am on 1-3 hours a night on weekdays, and almost all day on weekends.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my application. I hope to see you guys soon!

Have you ever been banned from a Minecraft server? If so, explain why: No
Give us some examples of things you've built, preferably including pictures or videos: I never took screenshots or videos of my builds, but once I built a tower from bedrock to the world height (256) in the bay of an ocean. It was a 100% legitimate build. The tower was 80 something by 80 something.
Write a paragraph or more about yourself: I like to joke around a lot and have fun. I'm a stoner, though I wont push others to do any drugs/alcohol/whatever. I want to join this server because I've been looking for a good server to join for a few weeks. The last server I was on just sort of died off. I'm really just hoping to find a friendly community to play Minecraft with. I've been playing Minecraft since infdev. My favorite thing about playing Minecraft is that I can just escape reality and be creative. It's been years since I started playing Minecraft, so I've been through about a million worlds and at least 20 different servers. If I'm accepted, I plan to play on a daily basis for many many hours at a time. (Until I can find a job, which I will probably work 5 days out of the week.) I don't have any questions or concerns at the moment. I may change this in the future, unless I'm accepted before I think of anything.
Thanks for taking the time to read my application. If you have any questions for me, just let me know.

• How long have you been playing Minecraft? sine beta
• What do you enjoy most about playing Minecraft? well i love to pvp. it has to be the most entertaining for me next to building.

Go to middle school in USA. I have been playing MC for 1 and a half year now. I enjoy minecraft so much because of the friendly community and playing pure vanilla minecraft with friends. I have played SMP on the Diamond Shaf server. Even though there are a few plugins, it ruins the vanilla experience for me. I'll try to be on everyday, but ill take a few breaks here and there. Your server looks great and i hope i can join! P.S. it is pure vanilla right?

Have you ever been banned from a Minecraft server? If so, explain why: Never. I usually only play private home hosted servers with a couple of friends.
Give us some examples of things you've built, preferably including pictures or videos: http://legitpotato98.imgur.com/all All of these were built in creative, but I sure can build with the exact same skill in survival.

I'm a 16 year old sophomore living in Billings, Montana. I'm shy in and around crowds, but in a home environment I'm fine (Skype I usually don't have any trouble with). I love being around friends and gaming with them. But, ever since high school hit, none of them have really had time to hang on Minecraft or anything, and playing by yourself kinda sucks Anyway, my hobbies are gaming (not just PC but console as well), playing goalkeeper in soccer, and, finally, drumming, which is my biggest hobby as of now. I would like to join the server to have a nice community to go to after a stressful day of school and just hang and talk. What do I expect from a gaming community? Well, just a bunch of awesome people that want to hang and play games for a while. Nothing major, no real big expectations other than to log on and play. I've been playing Minecraft for around...uh, 3-5 years or something (no clue :P). The thing I enjoy most about this game is 1. building 2. the relaxing music. For survival Minecraft, I normally only played with friends and when I need to brainstorm a project for creative. I do know a lot of the tricks of survival and do just fine in it. If I were to be accepted, I normally play anywhere from 1-4 hours a day, always after school. I normally log on anytime from 4pm-9pm and play until 10pm (mountain time). Anyway, thanks for checking out my application! Be awesome to be part of an SMP community!
Yes, the server is currently running vanilla 1.8.1. No mods of any kind.
Soo, Am I accepted?

Have you ever been banned from a Minecraft server? If so, explain why: No, i always have tried to stay as courteous and polite as possible on servers, I usually end up being on an Admins Good Side (luckily)
Give us some examples of things you've built, preferably including pictures or videos: i have built numerous mob grinders (some of which my own design) Enderman Farms, i have made some pixel art. attached is a pretty low quality pic of an Enderman farm I made on the Xbox 360 edition before i had pc. and currently i am working on a hobbit hole base on my single player series. heres a link to my imgur which has a few of my builds on it -

My Name is Jonathan or Hech, I Like to Record youtube videos and mostly i play Minecraft, i also enjoy the outdoors and cycling/biking. in terms of my age, I cannot blend in with others my age, i just can't stand the immaturity.
I Would like to join the server because i enjoy watching the videos made on it and have been looking for a community to work with for quite some time (getting a little bored of Single Player...). and i would also like to record with other people.
I Have been playing Minecraft Since the 1.0 update in 2011, been enjoying it ever since
The thing i enjoy most about Minecraft is the amount of imagination you can use in general. even after almost 4 years of me playing this game i am still finding cool things out, thats what i enjoy most about this game.
I have played Single player, i was on a whitelisted multiplayer server for a few days about a year ago, but left when i found out how immature everyone was (stealing stuff, swearing, etc.)
If i was accepted i would be on as much as possible, at least an hour every day, unless i have to go somewhere and don't have access to my computer.
I Myself have No Questions involving The Server, as I Already know how great this server is and how much of a Community it is, just by the Videos i have seen on it!
Thank you for reading my Application, even if i am not accepted i will definitely still watch every episode you guys upload from this server. Good luck to every other Applicant Have a Nice day!
