[Denied] StupidGeekz's Command Whitelist


Recommended Posts

BYOND key:

Stup1dg33kz

Character names:

Kayden Mosser, Bryson Roberts, (occasionally) Elliott Tedrow.

How long have you been playing on Aurora?:

Four years (on and off (mostly off tbh))

Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?:

Opens up the available jobs/character options, increases the possible RP.

Why did you come to Aurora?:

The server my friends and I took over (Exogenesis) died and I wanted some Medium-High RP.

Have you read the Aurora wiki on the head roles and qualifications you plan on playing?:

I got 'em open right now my dude.

Have you received any administrative actions? And how serious were they?

Nothing more serious than a warning in the last couple of years. I did get jobbanned from Warden, but that was back in 2015.

Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph each.

A whole paragraph? A'ight sure.

Give a definition of what you think roleplay is, and should be about:

Roleplay is the art of telling a story that isn't your own. It's acting, basically. Becoming something or someone that you aren't or can't be (which in this case is a member of an elite futuristic space station). Roleplaying should, beyond anything else, incite a fun and engaging round of play, personal goals be damned.

What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?:

To further the story in some rounds (i.e. rev, Cult), to force progression at worst. The Heads are there to further the antagonists' motives, give the crew something to rally around beyond "brand loyalty", basically gives something for the round type to kick off of. In game, they're the men and women at the top of their field, that have worked hard enough to get these elite positions. They know the ins and outs of the station, its inhabitants and their quirks.

What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?:

The responsibilities of Whitelisted players is to elevate the roleplay level in the game. To further the story, basically. They're the "main players" in the story of the round, I suppose. Besides that, they should know just about everything in regards to their position and who's under it. It's another level of roleplay, and I believe with my experience with Space Station 13 and its quirks, flaws, and all, I can provide that extra level of roleplay needed.

Could you give us the gist of what is currently happening in Tau Ceti and how it affected your character and their career?

Project Peacekeeper is a great step toward bringing peace to Tau Ceti, and indeed, the greater galaxy. It helps Garbunkle feel more at peace with his role on the Aurora, in a strange way. It probably won't affect him in any grand way, but it should help the company he grew up revering appear better in the eyes of its detractors.

What roles do you plan on playing after the application is accepted?

Head of Security, possibly Head of Personnel.

Characters you intend to use for command or have created for command. Include the job they will be taking.:

Stanley Garbunkle, Head of Personnel.

How would you rate your own roleplaying?:

Experienced, entertaining, refined when need be.

Do you understand your whitelist is not permanent, and may be stripped following continuous administrative action?

Yes. I'm beyond my random griefing phase.

Have you familiarize yourself with the wiki pages for the command roles?

Yes.

Extra notes:

I'm an old man in regards to Space Station, let me in your Bridge.

You mentioned you're gonna play Head of Security, and might play Head of Personnel, then told us off the Head of Personnel you're gonna play. Who's the Head of Security you'd like to play?

I've roleplayed with you around before (although, I don't think I've ever spoken to your characters personally) and you always look like you know what you're doing. If you expand your answers, and clarify the HoS thing it'll be a +1

After reading the application, it still seems a bit vague in regards to Tau Ceti character background. There is a lot more in regards to what is happening/has happened like the previous Sol occupation, politics, synthetic movement, etc.

They're the "main players"

I wouldn't see heads of staff as the 'main players' within a round. This view may be sometimes damaging. There is nothing wrong with stepping behind the lines and being the regular average Joe who has a stagnate life. Heads of Staff are not expected to be the 'main players' of a round, they are expected to lead others and the rest of the crew through situations based upon information relayed to them. The difference between being the main player and a leader comes with involvement. Leaders gain information and motivate people to listen to them, main players are present at every interaction between a situation facing the crew. It at the end of the day depends on the persons decisions. Do they want to step back and just give security the ability to lead itself, or do they want to be around for every interaction? It isn't strictly required. If I'm making any sense

 

Regardless, I haven't really seen you around much to provide further feedback. I never interacted with your characters, and your byond key seems new to me. That's a big factor on why people haven't been providing feedback despite advertising it.

I should clarify that, I'm not sure if I want Mosser to be promoted to Head of Security or if I want to create a brand new HoS character.

Hello.

This application has been sitting here for a while without getting feedback, nor is most of it positive. I am unable to recognize you by your characters' names, and thus I'm really unable to make a move forward with this application. Furthermore, I see the quality of the application has not improved substancially since my colleage told you to improve it. For those two reasons, I will be denying the application. You are free to reapply any time, however I do reccommend you make yourself knowledgeable a bit around the community and play some regular characters so people can judge your playstyle in your future applications and they actually help the case.

Good luck for the next try!
