Awesomesauce935's Predator Application - Klei'zeph Duhara, the hunter of hunters.

Post by Awesomesauce935 » 05 Oct 2018, 14:56

Byond ID: Awesomesauce935

Marine Name (so we know who you are; if you play alien mostly, state that here): Mostly "Garviel Rozencruze", but i play a few others.

Name of the character you want whitelisted (The name your predator will use. This must match your in-game predator name): Klei'zeph Duhara

Are you familiar with the Predator Code Of Honor?: I've read and re-read the code, and understand it's import. May i point out that the template URL is outdated.

Character background (An ADEQUATE description and story of your predators background):
► Show Spoiler
How do you intend to play your predator (as in, describe HOW you will act/play your predator)?:

I will play with great patience learning of the prey, with the intent of learning how they live, and how they fight, before i accept them as worthy. Worthy prey for Klei'zeph is ideally themselves a hunter, so i will often target lurkers, burrowers, or specialist marines. Of great import to me is learning the name of my prey, as that is what gives meaning to the trophies i take.

Why should we whitelist you?:

I feel as though i'd be able to add a little bit of roleplay spice into a round, as i recall that every time i've encountered a good predator player it's vastly improved my round, especially the one time i killed one using a single arm and a large quantity of grenades, and i feel as though a lot of players enjoy the rare occasion they interact with the mysterious predators, who may help, or hinder them. That uncertainty as well as the strength of the predators often spurs interesting roleplay situations, and roleplay what makes this game great.


Have you been banned from CM in the last month for any reason (we will check, and lies may result in immediate denial)? I have never been banned from CM, although i believe i have a note for an improper character name, and a note for an improper escalation. I have since not committed any similar mistakes.

Are you currently banned from any other servers and if so, why?: I have not been banned from any 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?: I understand fully, and am glad that these rules are strictly enforced, it's what creates the consistency of the experience.

Hello Sir, the main problem right now I see is that you really don't have much Forum activity which does matter, And I can't speak for your in-game activity or how you roleplay.
Also don't use bright green next time.
I would recommend making yourself more known and more involved in the community.

I have seen your name on the discord though I can't say I've seen you be too active. Could just be time-zones, though. Your forum activity is very small, and could do with buffing.
Can't say I know who you are in game, so I can't judge you on that either. David basically has it on the nose when he says become more active and involved in the community honestly.

Gonna have to go with a -1 sorry man.

I'm gonna have to go with a -1 on this app.

Your story is not a bad idea but needs more background for your predator.

Also next time from what others would say I would not use the font and color you used for your app.

Make sure you go and ask other people who are pred whitelisted on what can make your app better.

Though for now, I'll stick with my negative one.

To respond to all of you thus far, i'd expected the criticism about inactivity on the forum, and while i've been lurking on it since just after i started playing CM, i'd never felt the need to post. While looking through some prior applications i realised that this would be a massive hurdle for my application to overcome, but had no solution to that problem when i posted it, as i felt that spam posting on every thread i could find would be a bit distasteful. I'm a bit disappointed that forum activity is one of the primary basis for acceptance on applications given that it's not mentioned in the README, i guess if i'd known that a month ago i'd been active, but i suppose i'll hold off applications for synth and commander till i can bump it up.

As for the green font, i'm surprised at the reactions to it, but i'll acquiesce.

And finally a question, how much of the previous application can be reused in the next one? i'd like to fit the story i've already created into the next larger work that i'll need to make in three months time.

It's your app, if you wish to use the entire thing but add more, that's completely fine. Though, I hadn't got around to reviewing this one yet, I also would like to ask you to tone it down on the font size and colour, a rule of thumb that I go by is if you need to use massive and bright coloured letters to draw attention to your app, you're doing it wrong. But that's just personal and not based on the contents of this app in particular. I'll try and get around to reviewing it and putting my commentary at a near future point in time if you indeed intend on making a second app later down the line.

The main reason for the big green was on other applications it was not as quick as i'd like to see the divide between questions and answers at a glance, and since people looking at the applications would probably know the questions by heart by now, and the answers were the main concern. Since there has been a lot of vocalisation i won't do that again, i'd edit that in this application if i still could.

I don't have an issue with the story, the only issues are a significant lack of Forum activity, and your name is pretty much not known to me.
I'm not gonna give a -1, but I am remaining neutral until I can see more of you in game.

I'd hoped that i'd be known by a few folk by now, but i guess i need to play SO and XO more as Garviel to really put my name in the hat, i guess i shouldn't have played multiple characters for every job for the first two months ><

damn, well i guess since fanfiction writing isn't really a strong suit of mine and i doubt i could even make five hundred posts in the forum over the next three months i won't bother with the whitelisted roles. Mark me as withdrawn please Emerald.

it doesnt have to be fanfiction and you dont have to have 500 posts. Simply be active, post on the forums and flesh out your app.

Predator is considered the Creme de Le creme if you will of the whitelists. It’s not just the story, but your reputation. If you not very active on the forum or discord it’s not a major issue, but if we have no idea who you are, so even if you wrote a major novel awarding of a Pulitzer Prize you would still have trouble because you’re a bit of an unknown.

Play marine and just become notable on the server. Come up with a ok to decent story and try again bud

Nobody's said a word about the described playstile but man, that's literally the plain "I'll be sneaky and then kill a guy or two" not even disguised as something cool.
I think I saw your c-key once or twice but I'm not even sure was it in discord or ingame.

I've seen a bunch of you in-game, but i used to play about six different characters, so i'm not surprised I've not been recognised, plus i'm in Europe, so i'm only around for a round or two of American highpop most nights. I didn't think Predator would be the most stringent whitelist, i'd have assumed that would be the Commander, but now that i look at it again, i see that you're right, after all a crap commander still has an XO. I'll probably make a synth application before predator then, i reckon i could make a good synth.

If you're gonna play different characters, maybe just stick with a common surname.
For example thedonkfied has like 4 different characters with the last name jones.

For now I say stick with one character so you get your reputation known.
