Riky's Application [Approved - Deester]

About You!

1. What is your Minecraft username?
Until_Its_Over
2. How old are you?
16

3. What country are you from?
I'm from the United States of America.

4. Have you read the King's Law, Tome of Citizenship, Official Lore, and the Survival Guides yet?
Yup! I've read them all!

5. In your own words, how would you define metagaming and powergaming?
Metagaming is using information in a roleplay that your character should not actually know (someone says something in an OOC chat and you use that piece of information in a roleplay).
Powergaming is being overly powerful in a roleplay (you walk up behind someone and say you snapped their neck- no questions asked).

6. Do we allow X-Raying mods or X-Ray texture packs on the server?
I'm going to be honest, I'm sure that the answer to this question is pretty obvious whether I read the rules or not (not saying I didn't read the rules!) but the answer is a big nope. No X-Ray of any sorts allowed.

7. Tell us about yourself!
Hello! My name is Leo. I'm currently a Junior in High School and enjoy doing many things during my freetime, roleplaying being of these things (obviously). I usually play Minecraft and roleplay when my friends are busy doing other things and can't talk/hang out with me. When I they are available, we usually enjoy playing a vast majority of other games together ranging from Left 4 Dead 2 to Smite!
I'm also a brony and although I'm not very outspoken of it, I don't keep it to myself. I'll mention it if it ever comes up (which it rarely ever does in casual conversation) or if I'm ever asked about myself (like right now).
One thing I love is inspiring people or being inspired. I love any song that brings a positive message, and I ABSOLUTELY despise those songs about sex, drugs, etc. My most recent username is actually referring to never giving up, to keep trying until it's over. It sounds cheesy I know, but it's the truth.

8. Do you have any examples of your work?
Yes! I've built quite a few things over the months. They're all on 35x35 plots (not as overwhelming as, say, a 100x100 plot) and they're all on public creative servers (so I can receive criticism from other players). All of these were built single handed and without the use of any plugin assistance e.g. World Edit, VoxelSniper (built by these hands alone, nothing else!).

9. Did anyone refer you?
Nope.

Written Test!

Coby began his life as a human, living on the outskirts of a nearby town. He had light skin, blond hair, and blue eyes. His body was built, due to being an only child assisting his parents with tasks such as chopping firewood or pulling a card to and from the town's market. However, coming from a not very wealthy family, he was still somewhat thin.

Everything seemed normal with Coby and his family. Any person could walk by their home, see the family, and smile at what a simple life was being lived. However, Coby had been hiding something for a long while. While Coby was fooling around in town on a day off, he discovered that it was not the women who caught his interest- it was the men. Coby was a homosexual.

For years, Coby had been hiding this dark truth, until one day. Coby had befriended someone who shared the same interests, and for months, they would rendezvous in secret. For months, they would embrace this truth to each other, both completely knowing what was at stake.

However, one day on Coby's 17th birthday, his parents had caught the two in a passionate kiss. They had been found out. Coby's parents never said a word to anyone; he was still their son, and they still had a reputation to protect. But at the same time, Coby's parents would only see shame and disappointment in him. This, he could not take.

At the age of 18, Coby ran away, seeking a new life and unable to bear his parent's shame any longer. He ran from his parent's disappointment, but he could no longer run from his true desires.

Coby had run from place to place many times. Trying to stay under the radar, he did small, temporary jobs for money. Some days, he would flirt with other men (around his age) around town. There was always the rare occasion that he would get lucky and find someone with similar interests.
However, more frequently than not, word would get out of who Coby is before this happened, forcing him to flee to a new area or a previously visited area which had forgotten his face.

This was a cycle that repeated itself for almost 12 months. For 12 months, Coby would run. For 12 months, Coby would hide.

12. Long. Months.

That is, until one day.

This day.

400 words on the dot. Nice. I'll have you whitelisted as soon as possible.

Congratulations!

I'm pleased to announce your application has been approved. I hope you enjoy your stay in Altera. Before logging on make sure you read the Survival Guide. It will help you on your way to get established in our World. If you need to know any additional information, everything can be found in our Tome of Citizenship. Make sure you consult either of these two before asking a question ingame.

If you're stuck unable to interact with anything or chat, try using /warp whitelist, if this doesn't work then please message a staff member with the problem.

You are probably eager to jump into the game, so there is no need to read all the links. Just use these as a reference for later.(very useful, by the way.)

Tome of Citizenship
Commands Guide
How to create your character profile

Lastly, please make sure you understand the following points. It's very important. As a new player, once you play you may be tempted to "test" out an x-ray mod... don't do it! We have a zero tolerance policy for it.

1) We have active members of staff monitoring players suspected of using X-RAY. We have extensive logging capabilities which also highlight to us when X-RAY is suspected. Anyone caught using X-RAY mods or Transparent Texture Packs will be permanently banned without appeal.
2) Anyone found to be griefing our server and subsequently blaming their sibling, friend, dog or any other person other than themselves will be banned irrespective of their innocence.
