    you shoulda been more professional and written this at 12 the next day instead of rushing at 1am......

    -1 because I think you're immature and your builds aren't that impressive. You've got what it takes but it takes time so just try build different styles and themes and larger scale projects to show you can take on an architect job.

    I'm pretty sure edited applications are auto-deny...
    But asides from that, your application was very weak, and you hardly put any effort towards your builds as well. There were some spelling errors and grammar issues, but mainly, you need to focus on putting more effort, not just constantly becoming desperate, and changing your application (which is illegal).

    And, not to forget, you need to be 100% serious on your application, and make yourself look professional, my first thoughts when reading your application, was that you're immature, and yet, the first thing you stated in your intro was that you didn't see a point for an introduction, so whats the point of applying then? What good will that do to make yourself look like an architect? For now, I'm a -1, but keep in mind, you can eventually become an architect, just put in more effort, and keep building. Good luck!

    Im going to be straight with you, now. I don't want to be mean but your builds aren't great at all. They don't nearly compare to those of the other architects. Every app you make, it seems to be the same style of builds and you aren't seeming to improve from the advice you're being given. It's the same thing I've thought in the beginning: your builds have no detail and do not stand out at all. Your app was extremely difficult to read, and looked like it was written by someone much younger than the age of 15. What's the need for the constant use of the caps and the failed attempted humour? Apps are meant to be serious and proffesional. Overall, you're not nearly ready for this position. I hope you put a lot of work into your builds and work on your maturity. I'm a strong -1 at this time.

    heyo, i'm at a -1 for now.
    your builds are a good starting point, however as Mega said they lack the scale and complexity that the current architects' builds possess. i like to build myself, and one of the best things to do if you want to improve your builds is to look at others and gain inspiration! as well, looking online for tutorials with advice about how to build more creatively, be more detail oriented and simply add more pizzazz to your builds is a great idea.
    remember that beautiful, big builds that you see online and around the server take time and dedication - so don't rush things! you may become impatient and that's okay, however rushing yourself to improve isn't a good idea. focus on one build and make it extraordinary!
    good luck!

    Hello! First of all, thank you for putting yourself out there and submitting the application. I guess I'll go ahead and jump right in to my personal assessment.

    Application: -1
    These applications are sort of a "first impression" for those of us who may not necessarily know you in-game that well. For future applications, I would definitely recommend the following:
    • Please spell check your stuff! The current Architects of Meep have done a beautiful job so far--jobs that often require some level of perfection... and the application above doesn't seem like it was cleaned or perfected in the slightest.
    • I would definitely recommend against ever editing your original post on an application. This used to be an auto-deny... as KD mentioned earlier in this thread, I suppose auto-denies are not a thing anymore, but it definitely doesn't look as professional.
    • Please put more heart and soul into your introduction... in my opinion, "I really don't see the point of this" doesn't really shout "team player + staff material."
    Architecture: -1
    I am definitely more interested in learning more about your large-scale builds, "works of art" rather than buildings or single structures. This distinguishes a "Builder" from an "Architect" (and we don't really have "Builders" as far as I am aware). Also, a lot of these builds are going to require more than 10 minutes of your time, and definitely demand some level of perfection. Don't let this discourage you; rather, perfect your art.

    In-Game: +0
    Neither the in-game name nor your forum account match the name of the player who owns the town of "eggcity" that you've mentioned--that's owned by someone named "mowglisid" (not mowglisd) so I'm very confused at the mismatch of that particular piece of information provided in your application. However, I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you are this user, in which case it seems that you are relatively active. For this category, I have a neutral opinion.

    Conclusion and Recommendation: -1
    I don't believe that you are quite ready to take on the responsibility of Architect just yet. I base this recommendation on the completeness of your application and quality of your builds in contrast with MeepCraft. But, as I've said before, don't let this discourage you! And no matter the outcome of the staff decision on this application, I wish you the best of luck.

    Mow,

    You are not ready, in its simplest form. First, I am feeling that you are not taking staff positions seriously. In fact you have spent incredibly small time on this application, which reflects the amount of work you will put if you get staff.
    Second, I'm not good at building but I do not find your screenshots to be amusing.

    Hello Mowgli.
    Since I do not know you very well, I'll be judging by your builds alone.
    Honestly, I don't think they're architect worthy. Our team is pretty good at it's current size, and it constitutes of many talented builders. I would be a plus one if you had something special and unique to offer. If I'm being honest with you, the builds which you presented weren't bad (much better than what I could do) but they were very average.
    Also, I suggest that, if you were to reapply, you post some examples of World Edit or Voxel builds.
    -1, Good luck.

    Not at all, if this was the case most of the staff now would not be where they are now. They just need to be serious at times when needs be. a funny app doesn't mean a bad one.

    Anyways, for now, mow, I'm going to say -1, I feel that your builds are not architect quality as of yet, I'm not very good with commenting on arch apps as I don't exactly know the qualifications of an arch.

    My point is, don't show a sense of immaturity on applications, and actually put in some effort towards making yourself look like an ideal person who can handle the job correctly. The more you capture the attention of the audience, and give everyone a good impression of yourself, the higher chance you have to become the specific staff member. No, what I said, did not mean you cannot make jokes and stuff, what I said meant that you cannot turn your words into receiving an "unsuitable for the job" impression from the community.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Moreover, you can easily tell when someone is starting to become, or is desperate for the role when they edit their application for certain people, they edit their application to counter criticism from other people, making it look like they never intended to say that.
    This, is not a good thing, I am not saying mowglisd is desperate or something for the role, but I agree perfectly that you do not need to be 100% serious, treating it like some critical mission, leaving the happiness behind. The point is: you need to accept criticism, you shouldn't change your application just to counter what one said. And don't treat this like some critical mission and let some humor or happiness out as well. This does not specifically target mowglisd. This is simply clarification of what I truly meant...

    no.








    Seriously here, not mature, not quality builds, last time you applied you lied on your application, and there are so many, so many, reasons why you or someone like you should never be a part of the staff team. You don't understand the word "no" and act like a young child. Just no, no, no and no. No.

    Bad things in your app are in red and my additional comments are in blue.

    Along with what is in your app, your attitude is very cocky and poor, and very unlike anything anyone would want to see in a staff member. You have not improved on anything anyone has told you in any of your previous apps. If you can't put in effort I don't see why you should be accepted.

    Denied, we do not feel your builds are up to par with the current standards for architects. If you'd like to see more of what is expected, view the builds in the accepted applications section.
