After an extended period away from all things minecraft, I'm back, and ready to mine, build, and explore with a group of friendly, like-minded individuals. This is a brand new server, and as such the map is unscathed. Nothing has been built or mined yet.
Philosophy~
First and foremost, pay-to-win is a concept that doesn't belong in minecraft SMP. I'm tired of seeing admins fly around in fully enchanted armour, making the skies rain diamonds as if its some sort of ritual to make paypal rain money. What's the point of minecraft if there's no need to mine?
Secondly, this server is semi-vanilla. We will use several anti-griefing plugins (including LWC), but nothing that drastically alters the game. The only non-anti-griefing plugin commands that are available are sethome., home, and spawn. I'm not set on keeping the home commands - if the community decides we are better off without them, then they will be uninstalled.
Overall, I hope to make this a community server, built on cooperation and collective decision making. Additionally, this will not be an event server. It will be dedicated to a single, cooperative world 24/7. Note: this is a 16+ server.
Rules~
These should all be self explanatory, and most should be assumed. If you think of something that should be added here, please let me know.
No Griefing/Stealing
No cheats, moded clients (xray and the like), or texture packs that would give you an advantage over other players.
Lock your chests - we have LWC to allow you to secure your valuables.
PvP is disabled
No bigotry, sexism, racism... etc.
Of course, read the above post in its entirety before posting an application.
Chop down trees completely
All structures should be supported
Be respectful of other's buildings and land.
There aren't any strict building requirements (except the support rule, listed above), however it would be appreciated if you kept at least one house close to spawn. It could be fun to watch our community's town grow.
Application~
To apply for the whitelist, just fill out and post the application below. Think of this as more of an introduction, and feel free to add any sections I missed.
Edit: the forum code block was messing up formatting, so it has been removed. Name: Age: IGN: Do you agree to the rules? What is you minecraft philosophy? What do you hope to get from / bring to this server? A bit about yourself:
IGN: monsoon300 Age: 25 How Long Have You Had Minecraft? It's been a while - I've played from InfDev How Often Do You Play? 1-2 hours daily Real Name: Zach Gender: male Whats Your Favorite Minecraft Biome? Super Hills
Why do you want to join the server?: I'm looking for a small, friendly tekkit server to play on in my down time. I just recently got into tekkit, and would like to experience the game with a group of people.
Why should we let you join?: I generally seek to help out, build aesthetically pleasing homes and buildings, and build the community. I hope that a mature and active community grows out of this server. Unfortunately, I won't be able to offer a grand amount of time due to my personal life, and job. However, I will invest a bit of time each day checking in, chatting, and of course, building.
Firstly, I apologize as this is not my place to say, but austbenton, a "pm" is a private message sent to you via the minecraft forums. You likely did not receive one because your behaviour on this thread points towards immaturity and lack of attention to detail (no, its not your age). I say this not out of disrespect, but as a friendly pointer: read the post, and any replies to it before you apply. Additionally, if the post has an application, fill it out; don't just say "I want to play, can I be staff?" That sends a message that you only care about being OP, and could care less about the community or server. Again, no offence was intended with this message.
Onto the primary purpose for this post xD

What can you offer the community?: I generally seek to help out, build aesthetically pleasing homes and buildings, and build the community.

However, I will invest a bit of time each day checking in, chatting, and of course, building.
Favorite game: That's a tough question to answer. If I had to choose one it'd probably be Thief, or Ocarina of Time (you can never go wrong with the classics )
How often can you play?: Like I said earlier, I'll put in the time that I am able to, but I can't promise that will be often. If I were to guess I'd say maybe 6-8 hours a week; more or less depending on the circumstances of that particular time.

The main projects we will be tackling are:
- Large, luxurious castle
- Castle grounds
- Multiple manors for the upper class district
- Roads and city walls
- City port
- Ship(s) for the port
- Middle and Lower class districts
- Other smaller settlements
Skills Needed:
- Building Skills (Medieval / Georgian)
- OR experience with Voxel and World Edit
If you would like to help us with this project, please fill out the following form:

Thank you for your time and consideration in helping with our efforts.

In your own words, please explain what RP is OR give a unique example: To RP is to assume the guise of a character other than oneself for the purpose of creating a unique and interesting story. It is a way for a person to do things they could never hope to do in the real world, because it lets one utilize their imagination. I would almost compare to backyard games of pretend from days long past.
Have you RPed before? Yes, I have. I have played many, many tabletop RPGS including Pathfinder, D&D, Shadowrun, World of Darkness, Mutants and Masterminds, and Warhammer 40k variations. I have developed an emphasis on character through these.
Prior RP experience: As above, playing tabletops, video games, and online forums. I am also an amateur actor and have developed a sense of character immersion because of this.
Do you have a mic: Yes
Do you have skype: Yes
Are you willing to use skype for voice chat: What else is skype for?
Are you willing to use skype for IMing: Oh, right. This. Yes.
Prior experience to the position you are applying for: I have moderated a private server for the MMO that shall not be named. It wasn't heavily populated, but it has given me good groundwork for online teamwork. I also admin'd a Minecraft server for some friends and myself. Another small operation, focused on teamwork for survival.
How much time do you have to commit to this project: Plenty. I am not a busy man. 2+ hours a day I reckon.
Why do you want to help with this project: I would like the experience. I love working with people and I see myself going into CompSci in the future. This is a good way for me to get crossover experience and develop skills. I also would like to be a part of this project just to see it thrive.
What qualifies you for this position: My experience moderating on private servers for MMOs and Minecraft, my practical approach to problem solving, and my people skills. Oh, and RP experience.
Skills: Problem solving, spatial reasoning (good for Minecraft), character development (can help others work out character issues), persistence, writing skill
What are you able to contribute to this project: Well, firstly, my help in all areas. I can contribute a great deal to players in the field. I can administer rulings and discipline as necessary and can help with the role playing aspect of the server. I also contribute my flexibility. Where I am needed, I will go.
Examples of your work (optional):
Thank you for your time monsoon. Look forward to hearing from you.
Sorry for the delay, truly. You are Accepted as a moderator. However, I do ask this: would you consider writing some lore? Although the spaces are full, we may need some help in that area if you are able. If not, I understand as well - just please let me know. I would love to see you as a member of our team.
What position are you applying for: Admin, moderator, or forum admin or moderator.. I can do all them if needed.
Age: 14 going on 15
In your own words, please explain what RP is OR give a unique example: RP is in my sense living or playing a role or character which is not your your own person. It is meant to be fun and enjoyed. It gives you a chance to see what life may have been like in a different time period.
Have you RPed before? Yes! Absolutely yes!
Prior RP experience: Your server since June of last year till it was closed. Best Minecraft times I have ever had.
Do you have a mic: Yes.
Do you have skype: Yes.
Are you willing to use skype for voice chat: Yes, of course.
Are you willing to use skype for IMing: Yes, of course.
Prior experience to the position you are applying for: I have been an owner, admin, and moderator many times throughout my time playing minecraft.
How much time do you have to commit to this project: All the time you need.
Why do you want to help with this project: I love to RP in Minecraft. It is my favorite thing to do. I have played on your servers before and miss that level or RP. I want to see that level of RP restored.
What qualifies you for this position: I have played on your servers before and know the type of RP you deliver to your players. I am helpful and responsible and I believe that knowing your type of RP style for a server will help me help others.
Skills: I am helpful, I can follow any orders you give me, and am responsible.
What are you able to contribute to this project: A fun and tireless RP player and staff member.
Examples of your work (optional): Nothing much.
I hope you accept me! I would love to get back into and RP server with you owning it!
Welcome back! You are hereby Accepted as a moderator (temporarily). I know your style, and think that you can fit in a variety of positions, but I'd like to experiment to place you in the best position possible. It's good to see you again mate.
Oh, and a note to everyone who hasn't already: Please add me on skype at monsoon300. Cheers.
Have you RPed before: Yes. Online and IRL, I'm a Dungeon Master for D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder
Prior RP experience: Various chatrooms, IRC and otherwise. Forum Roleplay on 4 or 5 different forums. Real life D&D and Pathfinder Campaigns, generally DMing.
Mic, Skype, IMing: Yes, yes, and yes.
Prior experience: A bit, I have been a moderator on several IRC chatrooms and forums.
How much time are you willing to commit: Virtually unlimited this summer.
Why do you want to help: Noxomra is a friend of mine working on the project, and I also enjoy RP and would love a server where I could Roleplay with like minded people.
What qualifies you: I like to think I'm a pretty mature person. I have shown myself willing to be strict with annoying spammers and such, and I think I can weigh situations with moderation and impartiality.
Skills: I can program, but I am currently swamped in projects. I have plenty of experience with writing, especially minutae and encyclopedic things. I like to build large things.
What are you able to contribute to this project: Just about anything you require, especially recruiting willing, mature players, and being able to keep annoyances and immersion breaking out of the game world, given a small amount of focused control.
-----------------------------------------
That's about it. I've spoken to some of the staff, they seem pretty top notch. I'd love to be a part of the team. Thanks for considering my application!
You have been Accepted as a moderator. You have a lot of experience in role-playing and would be a perfect moderator because of that. Very mature, and you would make a great addition to our team.
Prior RP experience: Several forums including DaeLuin and Faero (though I am no longer active) and of course online with friends. I also visit with a LARP (Live-Action Roleplay) group once a month.
Do you have a mic: Yes
Do you have skype: Yes
Are you willing to use skype for voice chat: Yes
Are you willing to use skype for IMing: Yes
Prior experience to the position you are applying for: On a small server I joined shortly after getting Minecraft the original owner could no longer keep up with running the server due to having a job and family and being on the road a lot. I was put in charge and effectively made admin, moderator and all other high-up positions on the server. The other members respected me, and I did my best to keep an eye on everyone to make sure no one caused trouble and when we decided to do group projects for the holidays I was placed in charge. It was nice to be able to organize everyone to get things done, and more often than not when there was a troublemaker I was able to root them out with the help of the other players and find creative and more workaround punishments for them.
How much time do you have to commit to this project: Depends. I am in college at the moment and it is my last semester but I do not have any other commitments and feel as if my last few classes are just the blowoffs I didn't take earlier that will not take up too much of my time.
Why do you want to help with this project: The server I mentioned in the prior experience section has since died. We were a small community of about a dozen or so, but we began to drift apart. People had school and life to deal with, some grew up and got jobs, and all in all it just fell apart and became abandoned. I would like to feel as if I'm part of something again, because the singleplayer mode just isn't doing it for me at all anymore and I cannot seem to find anything like what I had, they're all PVP or hardcore or so big I can't wrap my head around them.
What qualifies you for this position: I have held an admin position before, and in the real world I am very good at leading and organizing others and keeping track of those who are not holding up their end of deals. Being in my 20's I'm also extremely mature and by now have dealt with most situations and feel I can handle anything that is thrown at me.
Skills: Natural leader, pretty decent builder, and good at managing people.
Examples of your work (optional): I only have one build so far for my singleplayer world, but I feel it and the accompanying videos show off just a small portion of what I can do building wise - http://noxineralon.d...Lodge-306603251
If there are any additional questions please do not hesitate to contact me, I have until Monday off from school and unless I'm sleeping I should be trolling around somewhere and will do my best to get back to you as soon as I can
You have been Accepted the position of Management, you sound like you are an orderly person, add stealhaus on skype.
