Mikey's Predator Application

Post by Royal Griffon » 13 May 2018, 23:00

Byond ID: Royal Griffon

Marine Name (so we know who you are; if you play alien mostly, state that here): Mikey "Snatch" Anders

Name of the character you want whitelisted (The name your predator will use. This must match your in-game predator name): Shak'tea Lio're

Are you familiar with the Predator Code Of Honor? Not in game but I have read up on their honor code from the movies and found it surprisingly similar to a samurai-esk type code and also not so surprisingly similar to the code from looking at it, and by the way it sounds it's pretty simple and straightforward if you actually have a heart and mind

Character background (An ADEQUATE description and story of your predators background):
► Show Spoiler
(Hope that works and hope that's good)

How do you intend to play your predator (as in, describe HOW you will act/play your predator)? I plan to be a very cautious but also very risk taking predator, like a rookie basically, not as stupid as one but as risk taking as one, but not picking a fight with anyone who's not at 100% or distracted at something else or trying to avoid getting shot, however I will rarely pick a fight with marines, and unless a marine has shown that they are extremely up to fighting and insist on it, I will likely support the marines in their fight but I will not take getting fired upon lightly and will defend myself at any cost.

Why should we whitelist you? Because I love the predators from the movies and I do like their honor code and how it functions and I really do love seeing them fight but it's rare that they ever support the marines and are mainly on the xenos side so I thought, why not? Why not apply to be a predator who will basically give the marines a bit of support and show some love to both sides depending on how the cards fall

Have you been banned from CM in the last month for any reason (we will check, and lies may result in immediate denial)? I believe not, however if one could check I did receive a warning that wasn't a ban

Are you currently banned from any other servers and if so, why? None at all I am a proud good boi for other servers

Do you understand that any player - donor or otherwise - can have their whitelist status revoked should they break our rules or disobey the Predator Code of Honor? Yes I do, no exceptions to the rules.

A bit odd that you're pred decided to help the little girl, Background is okay-ish, my main problem is that I haven't seen you in-game roleplaying that much but that's probably just timezones, Not being familiar with the honor code is a big oof and you really should go read it up as it's a bit different over here.

Playstyle is oofy too, You say that you're going to be cautious but also risk taking which contradicts itself, and supporting the marines is another big no in my opinion, Predators aren't here to support xenos or marines, we're here to hunt, I don't think you're really familiar with what the predators are here for, we're not here to make friends or help one side over the other, we're here to hunt them and for some, we try to make things fun but that's a tad hard to do.

All in all I have to go with a -1, I don't think you're ready or you properly understand what Predators are here for, try talking to some other pred players or watch them more.

Yeah I meant to edit some more but my power went out and I couldn't get it done cause it was off for basically 2 hours at least cause I decided to go to sleep and it came back on when I woke back up which is now.

Also I really want to have a role play character and I like giving some love to the players, basically I was going to edit the playstyle to just be risky, have him favor marines living over xenos but not just openly side with them, change his story up a bit more but you know mother nature is queen and so no edital power by me, I'm sorry for probably wasting moderator times

However I don't think I've seen you around sadly at least not everyday, EST is very challenging saying you're either really close to someone else or just flat out 3+ hours away with no in betweens that much
But I would love to play when you are usually on! Bet you it's pretty funny when you're on sometimes, who knows

Saying right off the bat that you don't know the Predator Code of Honor ingame is a big red flag immediately. The backstory itself is odd overall whether it be from the child plotline to having the child help on the hunt, but overall I don't think it describes you character well enough. To top it off the predator playstyle is probably the most common there is. The one good thing I will say is I've atleast seen you ingame before.

The answer to the honor-code question on it's own already means I have to give this a big -1
Aside from that, there are still some obvious flaws: As Musician already pointed out, predators are not meant to "support" any side.
There's also the fact that you have very low forum activity.
Before re-applying, I'd work on that and also read some of the accepted applications.

-1 There's nothing good to say about this application, take a look at some of the accepted applications and figure out what you need to make a unique application that'll fulfil the necessary criteria.

Take a look at some accepted applications and compare them to yours and you'll see the difference.

If you want to try again in the future, try to meet some criteria, such as:

- Activity in the forum and in-game.

- Improve your fluency in the English language to facilitate role-playing.

- To play as a predator, you need constant knowledge of the honor code to avoid damaging the round of other players, or in general, ruining the round. Not having this knowledge means that you are totally unprepared for the role. As Kavlo said, being unaware of the honor code is a "big red flag".

To complete my analysis, your story does not describe your character well enough, disfavoring your application heavily. Your app is not on par with others, but in case you want to try again in three months, follow the above criteria and actively participate in the community. -1

Do you think you could find time to help me make one in 3 months or something or whenever you are free? Just asking you know? I have seen you around as a predator tons of times and such and I'd love to be able to maybe have an expert's help if it's allowed!

Alright.

Be active not by wanting to be whitelisted, but by being interested in the community or you will not get anywhere.

I can provide you with more conditions like the ones I gave above, such as participating more in the community and being recognized by other players, so you have a better chance next time. Have a unique name, don't change it and play with leadership roles, like XO and SL to improve your reputation. Do something different, establish your character with something special and unique, making him memorable to others. Have a presence in the forum and interact with others giving your opinion depending on the subject of the post and have a clean note history, as this will make you more trustworthy.

Our honor code can be found over the forum. Memorize it, obey it, love it or hate it, you need to know it if you want a chance.

Those are the biggest tips I can give. Read other approved applications to learn from them, learn to correct your texts and understand that in your background we want a description of your character through a narrative or a simple description. See predators playing and when you fully get the honor code, think of a way to play that is allowed by such and innovative at the same time.

Get all the feedback from your current app, understand and learn from it, and don't make the same mistake again. Good luck, this will be my second and last reply, as I would like to emphasize that we are in an app not in a guide.
