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

Give a definition of what you think roleplay is, and should be about: Roleplaying is acting as a character, adapting their personality and in character knowledge and traits while talking and acting in character, interacting with other people who are also roleplaying as their own characters, and making said roleplay multi sided and fun for all parties involved. Basically, acting but more fun.

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

The OOC purpose of a head of staff is giving orders, keeping the crew under control, and managing positions which are critical to a round, which not everyone can be responsible with. Generally, they're the ones who do large scale things in the round, like managing staff, or giving accesses, or making decisions outside of admin work.

What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?: Those with a head of staff whitelist are expected not to abuse their roles as head of staff, specifically, they are to play well and professionally, and generally have a professional standard for their actions, Or, in other words, "They are responsible to lead a division or the entire station, and not be a shitter while doing so"

Character name:Jonathan Alexander

Character age: 59

Please provide a short biography of this character (approx 2 paragraphs):

Born on Earth,Jonathan Alexander was originally an extremely poor man, Being born in extreme poverty, and even having a slight criminal record, With cases of minor theft and breaking and entering just to sustain himself and his family. However, He begun to learn his way around money after a kind gift from a priest and investing that money in the stock market, gaining knowledge from watching over his investments daily, and viewing the trends in the market, learning of economics from experience and attention, finding paperwork and economics to be a hobby and, for a while, a job.

Alexander gained a reputation as a highly skilled economist, A master of the stock markets, With written reports of how every action or policy in sol space could affect the markets, Eventually sending his studies to nanotrasen so he can get an actual job outside of looking at stocks. Nanotrasen liked that, and offered him a job as a quartermaster, which he took.

After a good 20 years of working as a quartermaster, Alexander was eventually considered for the role of Head of personell, The debate about the promotion lasting for another 1 year. During that time, Alex noticed a trend in the markets, which, from his studies, which he was still doing, he predicted would lead to a stock market crash, and warned the higher ups at central command about those predictions. Nanotrasen acted on this, which lead to them actually managing to make through the market crash, not only surviving, but actually managing to have an increase in profits while everyone else was having troubles. This event Netted Alexander a role as Head of personnel.

What do you like about this character?: Pretty decent backstory by my standards for writing, for the amount of time It took to write it, due to me usually getting writer's block

What do you dislike about this character?: Not much to do about personality

What do you think makes this character fit to be a head of staff?: Skill in economics and paperwork, and the trust of the company.

Character names:Too many to list

 

List the most played ones.

Watched you shoot an unarmed person for an aggressive grab with their friend from two tiles away without saying a word to them or using your other weapons.

Also ignored the fact the reason for the aggressive grab was announced on comms.

-1, seriously.

Addendum: The character you did this as was Javert. While I hear you are effective and competent in other departments, this whitelist provides universal access to all head roles and I cannot trust you won't try to go HoS as Javert - a character you do not play well enough to be a head, in my mind.

Don't worry, I personally believe HOS isn't exactly my cup of tea for now anyways, I need to steep my experience to let the tea get ready. I'm more interested in playing head of personnel.

I like how you give no justification and seem to gloss it over. Attacking a person who is unarmed, with no warning, for a consented aggressive grab documented on comms isn't proper. You didn't even own up to it in your last post and apologize or give evidence of otherwise. -1.

Oh, in that case, Yeah, I fucked up there. I was going to admit to it, and I was in the wrong there. I apologize, I thought I said that... Huh. Sorry bout that

At this time, we're going to be denying your application.

You should work more on the feedback presented and perhaps waiting a few months to reapply so that people are more familiar with your characters, since there isn't much feedback and what little of it we see is negative.
