Experience with a role like this: I've never been a gym leader on a Pixelmon server, but I often play most of the Pokemon games, doing soloruns/monotype runs/nuzlockes.
If so, can you give us some examples/proof?: Err, no not really.

Character Information
Name: Idon Tamar
Age: 53
Race: Dwarf
Physical description: Idon is fairly tall for a Dwarf, being 4'3", and weighing around 75~ pounds. He has a long, dark green shirt that drapes down to just above his knees, that is lined with a murky white wool, which he always wears unbuttoned. He has brown pants with a brown leather belt holding them up. He wears gray leather boots that come up a quarter of the way between his ankles and his knees that he made himself. He has a brown skin tone along with brown, thick but messy hair, and has a brown coloured beard, that is parted into three strands, held together by pieces of yarn. He has a dirty complexion from being in the woods so often, but attempts to stay somewhat clean. He also has blue/teal-ish eyes that always seem to be very bright.
Screen capture of your skin:
Biography: Idon was raised like any other normal kid in his community. However Idon didn't enjoy being with all the other dwed so often, so Idon took to his family's home and normally read. He would get lost in books for hours on end, reading every book he could find or purchase. Idon didn't just read all day, he also learned his father's practice which was farming. He enjoyed being outside in the fields and the work itself was somewhat enjoyable for him as well. When Idon was he packed his favourite books, some clothes, a hiking stick (he pretended it was a staff ever since he was little), a fishing pole, an ax and a small sapling to remind him of home.
He headed far away from home, not intentionally, stopping at points of nature he found intriguing or beautiful, and just imagine. He'd always find places that matched his images of settings in the stories he read, and strived to do so along his journey. One day while he was walking, he found a place that was the home of the protagonist, Tiella of his favourite book, which did not have a title itself but Idon made his own title, and called it "Escape". He fell in love with the scenery of the woods and decided that he would replicate his idea of the home that Tiella lived in, and which he did after more weeks of hard work.
Idon loved the peace and serenity that came with living out in the woods, near the pond where the fish swam and where he fished for his food, the soft rustling of the leaves on the occasional breezy day, and the way all the animals sung and danced in the grass or in the air. He was finally where he wanted to be. His first order of business once he finally finished his home, was to plant a small sapling that he took from the refugee camp. Idon was astonished by how quickly the tree was growing, being almost a full true after just a few years.
After another few years of living on his own, Idon became bored of the isolation, he had already memorized all his books from front to cover, he stopped enjoying living in the woods somewhat, so he decided that he would try to find some sort of civilization so he can begin to socialize with other people and not be entirely alone. Idon packed some things and began to make a map so he can remember his way home. After walking for a few hours, he then found the large city that he discovered long ago, and began to wonder why he's never seen anyone around.
He enjoyed his stay there, at the tavern making friends and such. He went to the library and purchased a lot more books to read when he returned home. Once his stay at the tavern was over he began the trek home to his small cabin, and began to read his new books. Once he finished all of those books, he constantly wondered if he should attempt to join society once more, and move to.
What is your character’s main goal?: Idon's main goal is to become a librarian, where he would sit and enjoy reading most of his days. However, he enjoys nature and being near his cabin home, and is scared to break off that tie as it is far from the city, but is something he must do eventually.
Strengths: Idon is very wise, mostly due to all his time spent reading his collection of books over and over many times. Idon is also very in touch with nature. He's spent most of his life with nature alone. He's also fairly experienced in things such as lumber jacking, hunting, building, and fishing so he can survive on his own and provide for himself (all of the skills mentioned took him years to become decent at them). He is also very proficient at making traps, mostly using them to kill animals instantly, so they don't have to suffer for any longer than they need to.
Weaknesses: Idon is basically useless when it comes to combat, he can't wield a sword, use a battle-axe, or shoot an arrow. He's not very strong either, having to only cut down small trees and saplings for his lumber, and needing larger logs takes hours on end for him to chop down a single tree. He's also not the best at conversation, and may be considered the "socially awkward" of that time, but he tries his hardest.
What is your character's personality?: Idon has always seen himself as a relaxed, wise man. He is always told that he looks very old for his age (53), but he just reminds people that he's been in touch with nature for most of his life, his soul's grown much older than him. He enjoys being self-sufficient, collecting his own food, materials etc. When he does hunt for his food, he always has utmost respect for the animal he is about to make his meal, or use their pelt. He's always been said to be extremely wise but to have a very friendly and welcoming personality. Idon is never one to turn down a drink, making a tavern his second favourite place to be (first being the woods). He's always been very fond of trees, more specifically he has a tree that he planted near his humble home in the forest when he first built it when he was a young adult. Ever since then, the tree has grown to the height of most others, in just a short span of years.. He has always been fond of magic, reading about many different kinds, and taking an interest into some. Another thing to note would be that since he spent almost his entire life alone, he talks in his own accent (human-like for the most part), and knows a few different languages (some enough to converse, others enough to know what language someone is speaking).
A question before I apply: Is it possible for a 'Halfman' or Dwarf to be above the stereotypical height of under 4'8~ (such as something like, 5'4) due to a disease or something to help fit a backstory of being excluded from society and thus running away from a camp and living alone?
-Skype name (Optional, for server chat): (Will PM if accepted)
-Do you have any prior roleplay-related experience, if so could you give an example?: I played on the Lord of the Craft server as multiple characters for many months (quit because some of the staff were breaking rules).
-Define Power-gaming in your own words: Power-gaming is pretty much being forceful with your RP, or go for a specific goal and ignore important parts of the RP process. For example you cannot run up to someone, kill them, and walk away as simple as that.
-Define Meta-gaming in your own words: Meta-gaming is the act of mixing OOC and IC. For example, if someone was to type something and their name is revealed, a stranger cannot call that person by their name without them telling them ICly.
----IC Info----
-Character name: Nervarn Adler
-Character race: Dwarf
-Character age: 74
-Character Occupation (optional, note you still must talk to the lord about loaning or purchasing any stall/shop for your character if he/she would have one. Also be sure to give previous applications a glance before deciding your job, we don't need 5 bartenders!): Nervarn used to be a miner in his younger years, and is currently a black smith.
-Character description(At least one to two paragraphs describing your character’s visual appearance.): Nervarn is a 4'3" Dwarf with a very bulky and stout frame. He has medium length light brown hair, which is almost always neatly tucked in a helmet that he forged himself, and has his prized piece of topaz secured in the lower front of the helmet. He has a rather long and thick beard that reaches his belt almost which is the same colour of his hair, it is separated into two parts, each secured in place with a piece of gold. He has emerald green eyes, and a permanently dirty face and arms/hands from his past as a miner. He also wears a navy tunic and navy pants with knee and shin protection, as well as a set of worn out leather gloves that he uses daily.
-Character personality and traits (At least one to two paragraphs describing their personality traits and/or quirks.): Nervarn is a very simple Dwarf. He is very masculine and muscular which is a cause from his work. He likes doing what he does as a blacksmith and also loved mining back in his younger years, with the ambition of getting back into the mining industry. He is very caring and gentle, although there are many people that view him as scary or intimidating, which he does not like being seen as those things. Nervarn loves his city of Barkamsted and does not have any intentions of leaving his home, and wants to maintain his business as well as see it grow.
-Character biography (At least three paragraphs describing your character's history and experiences): Nervarn was born into a refugee camp, both of his parents were members of the camp after their old home was destroyed by the Pact. He had a good childhood, he was very ignorant and unaware of the problems going on for most of his childhood, but he was always happy. His mother was a beautiful woman, with long hair and a small frame who worked as a florist before the war. His father was a very tall Dwarf, who measured 4'7" and was very respected in their old village, and always loved mining, with the dream of becoming a black smith and opening up his own shop
Nervarn's father unfortunately passed away in a mining accident, and Nervarn wanted to honour him so he got into mining. He taught himself all sorts of things about ore and different techniques of mining and his mother helped him prepare for emergencies, as her survival instincts were very honed. So he entered the mining business and wanted to do the best he could and still continue his simple life, and after the war he moved to Barkamsted and became one of the first people to dig in the new-founded mines.
Nervarn always wanted to keep a simple life and loved what he did, but one day something hit him, he was thinking about his father and remembered how much he wanted to become a black smith and have his own shop. Nervarn idolized his father and wanted to become everything that he was and live on his legacy, and creating armour and weapons for a living was still simple. So one day, he went on his last mining expedition and left his old job. He bought a plot of land and began to create his shop from the ground up, and read all the books he could find about smithing. He was very successful and was still very happy with his simple life, but he would always daydream about being in the mines once again.
-Please give us a short RP response to these two scenarios. (At least one paragraph for each.)
You’re walking around the markets at around noon. There’s a lot of people around you, still gathering their items as they prepare to shut down their many stands. Suddenly you feel a gentle lifting of your coin purse as a child graces you and soon after they take off sprinting. You have been robbed. Nervarn turns around to see where the robber is, and notices that he is a child, but gets a good look at him - a small human boy with dark brown hair wearing a green tunic. Nervarn never did anything too exciting that cost money, and always got great joy from saving his money. Being robbed by this child did not bother him too much, he felt bad for the kid being raised so poorly. Nervarn is not very quick as well, so he just collects his losses and goes home to get some more money so he can buy some more mead and materials to work with at his smith. He leaves and then returns a few hours later, but he sees someone that looks very familiar, and then he realizes who it is. It is the boy that stole his coin purse! Nervarn approaches the child and asks him if he knows he who is. The child looks ashamed and keeps his head down and does not say anything. "Where are yer parents?" Nervarn asks concerned. "A-at home." The child replies. "Are ya hungry?" Nervarn asks. "Yes, very." the boy replies quickly. "Well how 'bout ya give back me coin purse and I'll buy ya some food and a drink." says Nervarn with his arm extended. The boy gives back the coin purse and apologizes for doing what he did and Nervarn forgives him and buys him some bread and milk from a nearby stall.
You’re heading back to the city through the woods when you hear a whining coming from nearby. Upon further investigation you come across a grey-coloured wolf that appears to have its leg caught in a bear trap. Around it is three smaller lumps of fur, obviously puppies belonging to the trapped mother. Without help, they’ll all die, but wolf skins are quite valuable too, not to mention that the nearby farms suffer quite a bit from the wolf population. Nervarn runs to the trap and asses how injured the wolf is, and if she'll survive after she's set free. It looks like the wolf's not badly injured, so he decides to get the trap off the wolf as she has pups to care for and teach, much like Nervarn's father taught him almost everything he knows. So he begins to pry open the trap but for some reason it won't come off the poor wolf, so he has to think of what he can do. He tries a few more times using his hands and it still won't come off. He looks around seeing if there's anything that he can use to get the trap open. he finds a large stick that doesn't seem like it will break without a fight, and begins to try using that. After a few tries the trap comes off the wolf and Nervarn slowly backs off and watches the pups run up to her and jump at her as she limps off in the forest.
This is not correct. Choose what you want to believe but you are the only one to ever complain. Very mature telling people not to join. There were reasons we removed you, and the reasons you stated above are not them. Choose what you want to believe.
These were the only reasons why. I literally did not do anything else. And if immaturity is explaining people and warning them what goes on then I guess I'm as immature as they come.
Try not to join this server, I was recently accepted into it and was quickly removed for the following reasons:
- You cannot have other priotities other than Minecraft, if you're not on for 2+ hours a day, that's not good enough.
- You may not be "suspicious" or "shady", in this server those definitions are re-made into greet everyone, or try to do nice things to help this server
- You cannot attempt to have a friend join to have a motive to play on this server. This classifies you as a very suspicious person immediatley.
- If something gets stolen from someone in the first few days you're accepted, you are automatically removed because you are new, for that simple reason only (This also implies if a single person does not like you, and claims to have things stolen to get you removed).
Gender (no offense to anyone, just so we know): Male
Country: Canada
How long are you able to play: I have a part time job, so a lot somedays, and less others.
How long have you been playing with minecraft: 3 years, going on 4 in August (Started played a bit after Kyle did)
Why does this server spark your interest: Because my friend plays on it, and showed me around on it and it looks really cool! I also love small servers because it actually gives me a chance to be known, unlike very large public servers.
Why should we choose you: Because I beleive I am a really kind and intelligent person! I'm fairly good at building and know a lot about redstone. I am very friendly and get along with everyone as well.
What are some of your favorite things with the new update: I really enjoy the Mesa biome, before the Desert biome was my favourite because I love plain things, now I feel that the Mesa is plain, but with a cool twist with all of the different colour of clay. I also like to build with clay, so that's another point for Mesa's
What is UHC/Mindcrack: Yup, I've been watching Etho for over a year now (He's how I know most of my redstone knowledge).
What do you think you can do best in Minecraft: Redstone, I believe I am fairly advanced with it, but I'm not the greatest. I've only started to really look into it about four months ago.
Any ideas on what you want to build/do on the server: I would love to make a village of my own, populated with villagers! I like to make little kingdoms and such, and seeing the way most of the buildings are on the server, I believe that my cobblestone walled kingdom will fit in very well!
Any pictures of your builds: No, got a new PC and haven't made a new building world yet. Never took any screenshots on my old one, never had a need to.
Skype: Don't have one, can talk to me through Kyle though since we're neighbours.
YouTube(If you have one): Just a leisure watching one.
Tell me something about yourself: My favourite flavour of ice cream is rasberry nipple
How long have you been playing with minecraft: 3 years, 4 in June
Why does this server spark your interest: Because I want to be a part of a small community server, I love vanilla Minecraft and I'm sort of ignored outside of the internet, so in bigger servers I'm not noticed at all. So I like to play on small servers so i can be noticed and people can get to know me.
Why should we choose you: Because I am a really kind and generous person. I love to give. I like to think of myself as a good builder as well. Which is also why I love small servers, because people can see and appreciate my builds, not just myself on my SP world.
What are some of your favorite things with the new update: I LOVE the new Roofed Forests. Back in the olden days, beta 1.7 was my favourite update because I loved the forsests, and how they were so dense and took over the world. Now in the Roofed Forests, I can enjoy the dense thick trees as well as the little lakes they have scattered around these biomes. I also love the way Dark Wood Oak looks.
Do you know what UHC is/the concept of Mindcrack: Yup, me and 4 buddies of mine played on a Vanilla server for a while with UHC, I loved that. It provided more of a challenge because you have to be more careful in the first few days you play until someone starts selling potions or golden apples. I also really enjoy watching VintageBeef's videos, been watching him ever since his first Mindrack video.
What do you think you can do best in Minecraft: I think I am best at building, I am kinda good at drawing stuff, so I can plan things out and make it real. I also love history, so I tend to make lots of medeival/ruinic buildings.
Any ideas on what you want to build/do on the server: I have no idea, I can make a lot of things, I would love to make a potion store or something like that, because I can challenge myself in understanding redstone a bit more (I have like 2% expirience with redstone).
Any pictures of your builds: Sadly, no, I accidently deleted my .minecraft, trying to fix the launcher. I never took any screenshots.
Skype: randompeoeple604 (I made this when I was 12, and made a typo, copy it letter for letter if you want to add me)
YouTube(If you have one): I have one but don't make videos, just to comment and like other's
Tell me something about yourself: I am pretty sportive? I just won a gold medal with my volley ball team last weekend in a tournement. Just yesterday, I placed second in my weight class for my school's wrestling team. I also have been playing basketball for 10 years, just recreational though, I don't like competitive basketball.
Sigh.... Probably gonna get denied for this but I got so caught up in typing this I totally forgot to mention.. Rasberry Nipple is my favourite ice-cream flavour.

What are your interests in joining a Minecraft server?: Because I love the MindCrack series, been watching VintageBeef since like forever, I love small communities that are close together, and everyone is friendly. I also love to build, I don't like building in SP because no one gets to see it, which I find is lame.
Strengths: I love to build, I love history so I really enjoy making medeival, ruinic buildings. I am not really good at redstone. I used to be a great PvPer, don't know if that's any good here.

He enjoyed being outside in the fields and the work itself was somewhat enjoyable for him as well. When Idon was he packed his favourite books, some clothes, a hiking stick (he pretended it was a staff ever since he was little), a fishing pole, an ax and a small sapling to remind him of home.
He headed far away from home, not intentionally, stopping at points of nature he found intriguing or beautiful, and just imagine. He'd always find places that matched his images of settings in the stories he read, and strived to do so along his journey. One day while he was walking, he found a place that was the home of the protagonist, Tiella of his favourite book, which did not have a title itself but Idon made his own title, and called it "Escape". He fell in love with the scenery of the woods and decided that he would replicate his idea of the home that Tiella lived in, and which he did after more weeks of hard work.
Idon loved the peace and serenity that came with living out in the woods, near the pond where the fish swam and where he fished for his food, the soft rustling of the leaves on the occasional breezy day, and the way all the animals sung and danced in the grass or in the air. He was finally where he wanted to be. His first order of business once he finally finished his home, was to plant a small sapling that he took from the refugee camp. Idon was astonished by how quickly the tree was growing, being almost a full true after just a few years.
After another few years of living on his own, Idon became bored of the isolation, he had already memorized all his books from front to cover, he stopped enjoying living in the woods somewhat, so he decided that he would try to find some sort of civilization so he can begin to socialize with other people and not be entirely alone.

Strengths: Idon is very wise, mostly due to all his time spent reading his collection of books over and over many times. Idon is also very in touch with nature. He's spent most of his life with nature alone. He's also fairly experienced in things such as lumber jacking, hunting, building, and fishing so he can survive on his own and provide for himself (all of the skills mentioned took him years to become decent at them). He is also very proficient at making traps, mostly using them to kill animals instantly, so they don't have to suffer for any longer than they need to.
Weaknesses: Idon is basically useless when it comes to combat, he can't wield a sword, use a battle-axe, or shoot an arrow. He's not very strong either, having to only cut down small trees and saplings for his lumber, and needing larger logs takes hours on end for him to chop down a single tree. He's also not the best at conversation, and may be considered the "socially awkward" of that time, but he tries his hardest.
What is your character's personality?: Idon has always seen himself as a relaxed, wise man. He is always told that he looks very old for his age (53), but he just reminds people that he's been in touch with nature for most of his life, his soul's grown much older than him. He enjoys being self-sufficient, collecting his own food, materials etc. When he does hunt for his food, he always has utmost respect for the animal he is about to make his meal, or use their pelt. He's always been said to be extremely wise but to have a very friendly and welcoming personality. Idon is never one to turn down a drink, making a tavern his second favourite place to be (first being the woods). He's always been very fond of trees, more specifically he has a tree that he planted near his humble home in the forest when he first built it when he was a young adult. Ever since then, the tree has grown to the height of most others, in just a short span of years.. He has always been fond of magic, reading about many different kinds, and taking an interest into some. Another thing to note would be that since he spent almost his entire life alone, he talks in his own accent (human-like for the most part), and knows a few different languages (some enough to converse, others enough to know what language someone is speaking).

A question before I apply: Is it possible for a 'Halfman' or Dwarf to be above the stereotypical height of under 4'8~ (such as something like, 5'4) due to a disease or something to help fit a backstory of being excluded from society and thus running away from a camp and living alone?

----OOC Info----
-Minecraft IGN: xXKyle_JXx
-Skype name (Optional, for server chat): (Will PM if accepted)
-Do you have any prior roleplay-related experience, if so could you give an example?: I played on the Lord of the Craft server as multiple characters for many months (quit because some of the staff were breaking rules).
-Define Power-gaming in your own words: Power-gaming is pretty much being forceful with your RP, or go for a specific goal and ignore important parts of the RP process. For example you cannot run up to someone, kill them, and walk away as simple as that.
-Define Meta-gaming in your own words: Meta-gaming is the act of mixing OOC and IC. For example, if someone was to type something and their name is revealed, a stranger cannot call that person by their name without them telling them ICly.
----IC Info----
-Character name: Nervarn Adler
-Character race: Dwarf
-Character age: 74
-Character Occupation (optional, note you still must talk to the lord about loaning or purchasing any stall/shop for your character if he/she would have one. Also be sure to give previous applications a glance before deciding your job, we don't need 5 bartenders!): Nervarn used to be a miner in his younger years, and is currently a black smith.
-Character description(At least one to two paragraphs describing your character’s visual appearance.): Nervarn is a 4'3" Dwarf with a very bulky and stout frame. He has medium length light brown hair, which is almost always neatly tucked in a helmet that he forged himself, and has his prized piece of topaz secured in the lower front of the helmet. He has a rather long and thick beard that reaches his belt almost which is the same colour of his hair, it is separated into two parts, each secured in place with a piece of gold. He has emerald green eyes, and a permanently dirty face and arms/hands from his past as a miner. He also wears a navy tunic and navy pants with knee and shin protection, as well as a set of worn out leather gloves that he uses daily.
-Character personality and traits (At least one to two paragraphs describing their personality traits and/or quirks.): Nervarn is a very simple Dwarf. He is very masculine and muscular which is a cause from his work. He likes doing what he does as a blacksmith and also loved mining back in his younger years, with the ambition of getting back into the mining industry. He is very caring and gentle, although there are many people that view him as scary or intimidating, which he does not like being seen as those things. Nervarn loves his city of Barkamsted and does not have any intentions of leaving his home, and wants to maintain his business as well as see it grow.
-Character biography (At least three paragraphs describing your character's history and experiences): Nervarn was born into a refugee camp, both of his parents were members of the camp after their old home was destroyed by the Pact. He had a good childhood, he was very ignorant and unaware of the problems going on for most of his childhood, but he was always happy. His mother was a beautiful woman, with long hair and a small frame who worked as a florist before the war. His father was a very tall Dwarf, who measured 4'7" and was very respected in their old village, and always loved mining, with the dream of becoming a black smith and opening up his own shop
Nervarn's father unfortunately passed away in a mining accident, and Nervarn wanted to honour him so he got into mining. He taught himself all sorts of things about ore and different techniques of mining and his mother helped him prepare for emergencies, as her survival instincts were very honed. So he entered the mining business and wanted to do the best he could and still continue his simple life, and after the war he moved to Barkamsted and became one of the first people to dig in the new-founded mines.
Nervarn always wanted to keep a simple life and loved what he did, but one day something hit him, he was thinking about his father and remembered how much he wanted to become a black smith and have his own shop. Nervarn idolized his father and wanted to become everything that he was and live on his legacy, and creating armour and weapons for a living was still simple. So one day, he went on his last mining expedition and left his old job. He bought a plot of land and began to create his shop from the ground up, and read all the books he could find about smithing. He was very successful and was still very happy with his simple life, but he would always daydream about being in the mines once again.
-Please give us a short RP response to these two scenarios. (At least one paragraph for each.)
You’re walking around the markets at around noon. There’s a lot of people around you, still gathering their items as they prepare to shut down their many stands. Suddenly you feel a gentle lifting of your coin purse as a child graces you and soon after they take off sprinting. You have been robbed. Nervarn turns around to see where the robber is, and notices that he is a child, but gets a good look at him - a small human boy with dark brown hair wearing a green tunic. Nervarn never did anything too exciting that cost money, and always got great joy from saving his money. Being robbed by this child did not bother him too much, he felt bad for the kid being raised so poorly. Nervarn is not very quick as well, so he just collects his losses and goes home to get some more money so he can buy some more mead and materials to work with at his smith. He leaves and then returns a few hours later, but he sees someone that looks very familiar, and then he realizes who it is. It is the boy that stole his coin purse! Nervarn approaches the child and asks him if he knows he who is. The child looks ashamed and keeps his head down and does not say anything. "Where are yer parents?" Nervarn asks concerned. "A-at home." The child replies. "Are ya hungry?" Nervarn asks. "Yes, very." the boy replies quickly. "Well how 'bout ya give back me coin purse and I'll buy ya some food and a drink." says Nervarn with his arm extended. The boy gives back the coin purse and apologizes for doing what he did and Nervarn forgives him and buys him some bread and milk from a nearby stall.
You’re heading back to the city through the woods when you hear a whining coming from nearby. Upon further investigation you come across a grey-coloured wolf that appears to have its leg caught in a bear trap. Around it is three smaller lumps of fur, obviously puppies belonging to the trapped mother. Without help, they’ll all die, but wolf skins are quite valuable too, not to mention that the nearby farms suffer quite a bit from the wolf population. Nervarn runs to the trap and asses how injured the wolf is, and if she'll survive after she's set free. It looks like the wolf's not badly injured, so he decides to get the trap off the wolf as she has pups to care for and teach, much like Nervarn's father taught him almost everything he knows. So he begins to pry open the trap but for some reason it won't come off the poor wolf, so he has to think of what he can do. He tries a few more times using his hands and it still won't come off. He looks around seeing if there's anything that he can use to get the trap open. he finds a large stick that doesn't seem like it will break without a fight, and begins to try using that. After a few tries the trap comes off the wolf and Nervarn slowly backs off and watches the pups run up to her and jump at her as she limps off in the forest.

- You cannot have other priotities other than Minecraft, if you're not on for 2+ hours a day, that's not good enough.
- You may not be "suspicious" or "shady", in this server those definitions are re-made into greet everyone, or try to do nice things to help this server
- You cannot attempt to have a friend join to have a motive to play on this server. This classifies you as a very suspicious person immediatley.
- If something gets stolen from someone in the first few days you're accepted, you are automatically removed because you are new, for that simple reason only (This also implies if a single person does not like you, and claims to have things stolen to get you removed).
Pretty dumb server now I know how it works imo

Age and gender: 16, male.
Country of residence: Canada
Timezone: Eastern Standard Time
Skype name: randompeoeple604 (Copy it out letter by letter, made a typo back in '10)
What are your interests in joining a Minecraft server?: Because I love the MindCrack series, been watching VintageBeef since like forever, I love small communities that are close together, and everyone is friendly. I also love to build, I don't like building in SP because no one gets to see it, which I find is lame.
Strengths: I love to build, I love history so I really enjoy making medeival, ruinic buildings. I am not really good at redstone. I used to be a great PvPer, don't know if that's any good here. I am a prankster, so I hope we will be able to play pranks on other people (Not destroying anything of course).
How often will you be on: 2-5 hours a night
Do you watch MindCrack and know how SMP servers work: Yes and yes, don't know what else to put here.
A short summary about you as a person: Well, I am a kind person I like to think, I always give if anyone ever needs anything. I love to play pranks and jokes on others as I said before. I am fairly intelligent, and catch on to new things quickly. I love to play sports, just won a Gold medal with my volley ball team in a tornument. I placed Silver in the 61 (I think?) weight class for wrestling yesterday. So yeah, very active and competitive, but nevertheless very kind and generous.
