IGN:BlueSlim3 Birthday:February 2nd, 1998. (15 right now) Timezone: Eastern Standard Time. (Florida) Country: United States of America. How often do you play?: Depending on much I like the server (this one looks very organized and attractive) a few hours a day during school. It's hard to say an exact time due to teachers giving homework on different days and life getting in the way every now and then. But I would say a decent amount at least. When did you start playing?: I believe I started playing Minecraft a year ago November (2012). Before that I had at least a year to a year and a half experience on the Xbox for about a total of two and a half years. How did you discover Minecraft?: I saw Minecraft through a Xbox advertisment and decided to get it. After that, many of my friends got it and I later moved on to the PC version. About your personal life:Uh, I just go to highschool I am in the 10th grade and school can be a every now and then. I like to play sports with my friends every now and then. Sometimes I play GTA insted of Minecraft when I am a little bored. I live with my mom and she is a single parent. Your Minecraft playing style: I am not great with redstone, but I can always use YouTube. Besides that, I think I am an all around good player. Farming is cool, but gets boring after a while. I love to explore and go caving. Caving is fun to me because I love the thrill of finding ores and valuables and you have that chance of dying at the same time. Just a sort of adrenaline rush to me really. (I really like ABBA caving.) I like rustic and medieval building styles, but I don't build medieval really. I don't like plain wood square boxes. I am not great at building, so it takes me a while to figure something out that looks good. I like making mob traps of mob spawners and I have been looking for a server to try out making a wither farm (maybe) and getting perfect villagers of each kind. Do you have a YouTube channel?:I do, right now I do not record, as I am waiting to get art and set up a good intro and outro. Just little technical things. http://www.youtube.c...KkpZ10a0mSOaWnA Do you plan to record on the server?: I want to, but I am sort of shy in that area. It depends, but I am honestly not sure. I would love to have a YouTube career, but i'm a coward sometimes. Greatest Minecraft achievements:This may sound dumb, but I have killed the enderdragon and wither before with my old server and friends. It was 100% legit and felt good. Doing things legit and knowing you did it clean feels good in a certain way. I guess you could say running a server for about 5-6 months is a good achievement as well. Why would you like be considered?:This server looks professional. You have successful YouTuber's and have the server all figured out and a plan as well. I am looking for a place to call home really. Somewhere I can go and be supported by others and be congratulated or honored when I do something. I can be helpful when the situation needs it, but I like to joke around as well. I have experience with Minecraft and I didn't just start playing yesterday. I also have server running experience (if the owner or anyone else needed help I could somehow help). I can bring a funny and helpful person to your server (pretty cliche I know xD). I honestly just want a server I can call home, and have a family there to be by my side. To have friends I can do things with when I am tired of being alone. I am not one of those people who look mature, and then turn out to be immature. I regard myself as decent and thing the people of this server would like me. How did you find out about Surthrival?:Just saw it on the MinecraftForums. Anything else you'd like to add?: I do have Skype, but I would rather tell you if I was accepted. Also, please don't disregard me because of my age. I understand you are trying to get the best people, but I hope you don't just say no because of my age. Thanks for taking the time to review and read my app. Thanks so much! Hope to see you soon!

No were in the post it says something about age requirements, i am pretty mature if i say myself i have been playing with alot of older players like people who have children. I'm kinda dissapointed because your'e just saying i'm not old enough, at least give me a chance??
Nowhere in the post does it say that I have to accept every person who applies. It does, however, state that the more detailed the app, the more of a chance there is to get accepted. Your application does not provide enough detail to support you as a possible member of our community, and your response to your rejection confirms that.
We are willing to consider younger players who appeal to us though their application (as we do have some younger members on the server), but unfortunately yours did not.
I am aware that you cannot control your age, and I apologize for that, but what you can control is your attitude. I understand that you may really want to become a member of Surthrival, but please understand that we cannot accept everyone.
With that said, I wish you the best in finding a server that fits you. I am sorry that Surthrival is not the one.
I don't mean to be pushy, but will you respond here with the results or will we get a pm? I'm checking like every few minutes I was just wondering when I should look back. Sorry to be rude.

How did you discover Minecraft?: My friend told me about it.
About your personal life: I am a sophomore in high school. Most of my free time is spent gaming,so being in school shouldn't hinder my playing in any way. I don't have a special someone (subject to change :)).
Your Minecraft playing style: Not too good at building pretty stuff, but I'm adequate with redstone. I can also build some xp farms and other types of farms.
Do you have a YouTube channel?: Nope. I might create one eventually, but I feel that my age restricts my ability to make high quality, consistent videos.

IGN: PezzyCeeBirthday: October 6/1996Timezone:UTC/GMT +10 hoursCountry: AustraliaHow often do you play?: Everday except when at mums (2 days a fortnight)When did you start playing?: 1.2.5 mcHow did you discover Minecraft?: My friend told me about, it sounded stupid. Now I am in love with itAbout your personal life: I am 15 years of age, I indeed have a girlfriend. I go to school and work also, but I only work 2 days a week maximumYour Minecraft playing style: I am more of the redstone side of things, I can build but it takes me nearly 3x as long to build something good due to me having a logical brain and not a creative oneDo you have a YouTube channel?: I do indeed have a youtube - http://www.youtube.c...HandsomeGeneralDo you plan to record on the server? I do indeed plan to record, I was going to make my own server, but its quite difficult to get membersGreatest Minecraft achievements: Back in 1.6.2/4 I made a Iron Foundary from Tango Tek's explanation but mine spawned 10 iron golems instead of 3Why would you like be considered?: I am able to bring redstone abilities as well as a nice personality, I do not angry unless something really bothers meHow did you find out about Surthrival?: I was looking for a whitelisted server similar to Mindcrack and Hermitcraft Anything else you'd like to add?: I do have a skype if it is needed, I also have a microphone, also I cannot be on from about 8pm + for Melbourne time
How often do you play?: It honestly depends on school. Sometimes Ive got hours to spend per day and other times Im more limited, but usually Ive got plenty of time to play.
When did you start playing?: I began my adventures in Minecraft during Beta 1.2. Ah, the memories of the time before beds and the like.
How did you discover Minecraft?: My friend recommended the game after finding a Youtube video. Got a copy from my friend to try it out and played for about 8 hours straight before buying my own legit copy, and the rest is history.
About your personal life: What do you do for a living? Are you in school? Have a special someone? Im currently a senior at my local public high school. My favorite subjects are science, english, and history. My senior project at the moment is based on tracing genetic disorders in my own family and a paper on controversies preventing the treatment of genetic conditions. My group of friends isnt huge, but every single one of them I would trust with my life. I currently am unemployed as balancing a job with school sounds like something I wouldn't personally manage. Special someone? Ive got too much crap I wont share here and a lack of money to have a relationship going right now, although theres a close friend I guess you could say if I didnt have all that aforementioned "crap"
Your Minecraft playing style: Are you good at building big structures? How about redstone? Maybe Farming? Im not remarkable at anything, but I do like building...which Im decent but not amazing at. Along with that, I know my efficient means of gathering resources. Redstone Im absolutely helpless with.
Do you have a YouTube channel?: Please post link if you do. I do but theres nothing on it. No videos, I just use it for monitoring my favorites and the like.
Do you plan to record on the server? Ive been interested in possibly starting a Youtube channel. So, if I end up feeling it one day maybe I will.
Greatest Minecraft achievements: My greatest Minecraft achievement is probably something I called "Project Nichijou", where I did a 600x600 pixel art from one of my favorite shows. I was also part of a server project that took off for a short while, which was very fun and made me feel like I'd accomplished something.
Why would you like be considered?: What about this server that makes you want to join? What can you bring to the table? I bring a friendly, active member to your community whos interested in nothing but fun and making others laugh. Id like to be considered as a fun, friendly survival server is what Im looking for.
How did you find out about Surthrival?: Take a wild guess, sir.
Anything else you'd like to add?: I can cook minute rice in 58 seconds.
I have very few pictures of my builds. Heres what I could scavenge. Nothing truly impressive.

It has a social atmosphere where you can just chill with fellow minecrafters, it is professional as the server is regulated and no griefers will be allowed on to wreak havoc, and it is skilled the members on this server are extremely proficient at minecraft and know what they are doing. I can bring many things to Surthrival. I am a very sociable individual inside and outside of the game. I am a very technical individual and would always be available to explain certain unapparent mechanics of the game. Finally I love to have fun and build amazing things by myself or with others. How did you find out about Surthrival?: I discovered Surthrival through the minecraft forums Anything else you'd like to add?: I was just wondering how many people are on surthrival at present.

Why would I lik to e considered : I've been looking for a vanilla minecraft survival server for ages and this one with its already existing community sounds awesome
I'm sorry, but you have not been offered a spot on the whitelist. I hope you find a server that works for you.
I'm sorry, but you do not meet our minimum age requirements. I hope you find a server that works for you.

Country: United States of America.
How often do you play?: Depending on much I like the server (this one looks very organized and attractive) a few hours a day during school. It's hard to say an exact time due to teachers giving homework on different days and life getting in the way every now and then. But I would say a decent amount at least.
When did you start playing?: I believe I started playing Minecraft a year ago November (2012). Before that I had at least a year to a year and a half experience on the Xbox for about a total of two and a half years.
How did you discover Minecraft?: I saw Minecraft through a Xbox advertisment and decided to get it. After that, many of my friends got it and I later moved on to the PC version.
About your personal life:Uh, I just go to highschool I am in the 10th grade and school can be a every now and then. I like to play sports with my friends every now and then. Sometimes I play GTA insted of Minecraft when I am a little bored. I live with my mom and she is a single parent.
Your Minecraft playing style: I am not great with redstone, but I can always use YouTube. Besides that, I think I am an all around good player. Farming is cool, but gets boring after a while. I love to explore and go caving. Caving is fun to me because I love the thrill of finding ores and valuables and you have that chance of dying at the same time. Just a sort of adrenaline rush to me really. (I really like ABBA caving.) I like rustic and medieval building styles, but I don't build medieval really. I don't like plain wood square boxes. I am not great at building, so it takes me a while to figure something out that looks good. I like making mob traps of mob spawners and I have been looking for a server to try out making a wither farm (maybe) and getting perfect villagers of each kind.
Do you have a YouTube channel?:I do, right now I do not record, as I am waiting to get art and set up a good intro and outro. Just little technical things. http://www.youtube.c...KkpZ10a0mSOaWnA
Do you plan to record on the server?: I want to, but I am sort of shy in that area. It depends, but I am honestly not sure. I would love to have a YouTube career, but i'm a coward sometimes.
Greatest Minecraft achievements:This may sound dumb, but I have killed the enderdragon and wither before with my old server and friends. It was 100% legit and felt good. Doing things legit and knowing you did it clean feels good in a certain way. I guess you could say running a server for about 5-6 months is a good achievement as well.
Why would you like be considered?:This server looks professional. You have successful YouTuber's and have the server all figured out and a plan as well. I am looking for a place to call home really. Somewhere I can go and be supported by others and be congratulated or honored when I do something. I can be helpful when the situation needs it, but I like to joke around as well. I have experience with Minecraft and I didn't just start playing yesterday. I also have server running experience (if the owner or anyone else needed help I could somehow help). I can bring a funny and helpful person to your server (pretty cliche I know xD). I honestly just want a server I can call home, and have a family there to be by my side. To have friends I can do things with when I am tired of being alone. I am not one of those people who look mature, and then turn out to be immature. I regard myself as decent and thing the people of this server would like me.
How did you find out about Surthrival?: Just saw it on the MinecraftForums.
Anything else you'd like to add?: I do have Skype, but I would rather tell you if I was accepted. Also, please don't disregard me because of my age. I understand you are trying to get the best people, but I hope you don't just say no because of my age. Thanks for taking the time to review and read my app. Thanks so much! Hope to see you soon!

Anything else you'd like to add?: Include any extra information you believe will be helpful. This question is optional.:
Nowhere in the post does it say that I have to accept every person who applies. It does, however, state that the more detailed the app, the more of a chance there is to get accepted. Your application does not provide enough detail to support you as a possible member of our community, and your response to your rejection confirms that.
We are willing to consider younger players who appeal to us though their application (as we do have some younger members on the server), but unfortunately yours did not.
I am aware that you cannot control your age, and I apologize for that, but what you can control is your attitude. I understand that you may really want to become a member of Surthrival, but please understand that we cannot accept everyone.
With that said, I wish you the best in finding a server that fits you. I am sorry that Surthrival is not the one.
I'm sorry, but you do not meet our requirements. I hope you find a server that works for you. Thank you for applying.

How often do you play?: At least a few hours a day
When did you start playing?: Honestly not too sure, earliest I can remember is beta 1.2
How did you discover Minecraft?: My friend told me about it.
About your personal life: I am a sophomore in high school. Most of my free time is spent gaming,so being in school shouldn't hinder my playing in any way. I don't have a special someone (subject to change :)).
Your Minecraft playing style: Not too good at building pretty stuff, but I'm adequate with redstone. I can also build some xp farms and other types of farms.
Do you have a YouTube channel?: Nope. I might create one eventually, but I feel that my age restricts my ability to make high quality, consistent videos.
Greatest Minecraft achievements: Figured out how to design my own redstone contraptions. I'm still not amazing at it but I have finally figured out how to build useful things on my own.
Why would you like be considered?:I want to join because the community. That is very important to me. I also want a vanilla smp game with people I can have fun with.
How did you find out about Surthrival?: I searched for a whitelisted server on the forums.
I would like to speak to the owner through email, or some form of communication (even voice chat). I want to be given a chance to prove what I can bring to the table.
Thank you for considering my application,

How often do you play?: It honestly depends on school. Sometimes Ive got hours to spend per day and other times Im more limited, but usually Ive got plenty of time to play.
When did you start playing?: I began my adventures in Minecraft during Beta 1.2. Ah, the memories of the time before beds and the like.
How did you discover Minecraft?: My friend recommended the game after finding a Youtube video. Got a copy from my friend to try it out and played for about 8 hours straight before buying my own legit copy, and the rest is history.
About your personal life: What do you do for a living? Are you in school? Have a special someone? Im currently a senior at my local public high school. My favorite subjects are science, english, and history. My senior project at the moment is based on tracing genetic disorders in my own family and a paper on controversies preventing the treatment of genetic conditions. My group of friends isnt huge, but every single one of them I would trust with my life. I currently am unemployed as balancing a job with school sounds like something I wouldn't personally manage. Special someone? Ive got too much crap I wont share here and a lack of money to have a relationship going right now, although theres a close friend I guess you could say if I didnt have all that aforementioned "crap"
Your Minecraft playing style: Are you good at building big structures? How about redstone? Maybe Farming? Im not remarkable at anything, but I do like building...which Im decent but not amazing at. Along with that, I know my efficient means of gathering resources. Redstone Im absolutely helpless with.
Do you have a YouTube channel?: Please post link if you do. I do but theres nothing on it. No videos, I just use it for monitoring my favorites and the like.
Do you plan to record on the server? Ive been interested in possibly starting a Youtube channel. So, if I end up feeling it one day maybe I will.
Greatest Minecraft achievements: My greatest Minecraft achievement is probably something I called "Project Nichijou", where I did a 600x600 pixel art from one of my favorite shows. I was also part of a server project that took off for a short while, which was very fun and made me feel like I'd accomplished something.
Why would you like be considered?: What about this server that makes you want to join? What can you bring to the table? I bring a friendly, active member to your community whos interested in nothing but fun and making others laugh. Id like to be considered as a fun, friendly survival server is what Im looking for.
How did you find out about Surthrival?: Take a wild guess, sir.
Anything else you'd like to add?: I can cook minute rice in 58 seconds.
I have very few pictures of my builds. Heres what I could scavenge. Nothing truly impressive.

Why would you like be considered?: This server sounds amazing, it has everything I am looking for. It has a social atmosphere where you can just chill with fellow minecrafters, it is professional as the server is regulated and no griefers will be allowed on to wreak havoc, and it is skilled the members on this server are extremely proficient at minecraft and know what they are doing. I can bring many things to Surthrival. I am a very sociable individual inside and outside of the game. I am a very technical individual and would always be available to explain certain unapparent mechanics of the game. Finally I love to have fun and build amazing things by myself or with others.
