Do you believe you can handle this responsibility?: Yes.

18. Are you applying for Member or Trial Member?: Member

Questioning Phase begins now.

Have you been inactive recently, because I've never seen you in-game?

@Ryka he was inactive but he's returning.

So, his only reason for wanting to join is because GeNo holds a familiar face for him?

As Velocity said, I left and I've come back. I used to be a lot more dedicated, for lack of a better word, but now I'm more casual.

Ryka wrote:So, his only reason for wanting to join is because GeNo holds a familiar face for him?

Yes, and to make more faces familiar. I've heard that this clan isn't as 'full-time', but I might be wrong.

How can you contribute to GeNo if you're not active

I assume you mean on the chat -

Oh. Oops. Sorry.

I'll probably be decently active on these forums, but not the chat.

An old GeNo member huh? It's a pleasure seeing old faces here then, welcome. Your app looks pretty good so far, so I wish you the best of luck.

Uhm... sorry, that's not exactly what I meant'. I meant that I left PB2 for a while, not GeNo.

@The Moonlit Shadow I never really got to know you in the old clans, you were just a "member". Will I, as well as other members here, be able to get to know you?

To be honest, I think you could have put in just a tad bit more detail. But it's a decent application. I would like you to explain all the critical questions in further detail please.

As much as anyone else. Which is hopefully pretty well.

Thank you. Well...

I assume you mean 10 and 11, since those were points where I really don't think I've ever had a great reason. I'll do all three either way.

Application wrote:10. [Critical] Why do you wish to join GeNo?: I want to be able to recognize people and have them recognize me, and have people to play with.

This is essentially my answer to this question. I want to be part of GeNo for being part of GeNo. I don't have any major ambitions, and sitting at the bottom of these forums and talking to people is reason enough for me to join. And seeing members in game and probably failing with my social skills.

My Application wrote:11. [Critical] What can you help to contribute to GeNo?: Not much. If you ask me to do something, I'll try.

I won't be the first to say it, and I'm not the most proactive members of a clan. I'm also not very proactive in general. Honestly, I might try and do something... but without seeing the rest of the board categories it's hard to specify. I love these things called Forum Games, but probably not the type you know. Might rip off someone's idea from somewhere else... but I won't get too ahead of myself.

Application wrote:12. [Critical] What do you believe defines a good player? What defines a bad player?: I'd call a good player anyone who's nice. No insulting and just generally companionable. Bad players insult you, swear at you, and say annoying stuff.

More precisely, if someone annoys me for an actual legitimate reason then I'd call them a bad player. I can usually tell when I'm just being a whiny idiot or when I'm overreacting, and when that happens I'm not in the mood to judge anyone. Except, y'know, those amazing people. They're always amazing, of course.
For good players, if they try (at the game) or if they aren't, then tell everyone they're fooling around, that's enough at the 'skill' level. Oh, and no body blocking. I'm talking about the few maps that you can't move through your allies. There's two reasons I hate body blocking. The first is that it makes me mad. I'm trying to go somewhere and I can't. The second is that it shows a huge lack of skill and cooperation. They could move out of the way, which is sometimes as simple as jumping, or press X. This is usually more of an issue in laggy maps, and I know that when this happens to me the exact same thing is probably happening to the other player, so I'm going to start doing more of my own suggestions.

So for question #11, you are saying that there isn't much you are able to do, but you will try?

And also when you say, "I don't have any major ambitions," just so I'm clear, you don't have any major goals if you are able to join GeNociDe?

I meant that there isn't much I want to do, but I'll try when/if I get an idea.

So you don't want to do anything...But you will if you have to?

You should be giving ideas, commenting on forums, active in discord, and all the other things that come along with GeNo because you want to.

If this isn't what you meant, then please clear this up for me.

Want really never came into anything I meant. I can see why you thought that, though.

By 'want' I meant that I don't have any things I feel like starting myself. I don't have some amazing idea I really want to share and applied to this clan to share it. And by 'anything', I really meant 'any thing', specific things.

Understandable you have no clear ambition to put time into something you are uncertain of. Although, you need to understand as a member of GeNo we're hoping for activity, and loyalty. Respect for all members both inside and out of GeNo is mandatory. If you are annoyed, you leave the match. We aren't the kind of people who stress themselves over others online, especially in PB2. It's not necessary, and it shows a lack of respect for other individuals and simply brings you down as a person. If you are accepted, it is vital you understand we do not tolerate that kind of shit. Furthermore, I do hope that you bond well with our members and eventually take activity seriously. We don't apply consequence to inactivity, although we would very much appreciate an active member.

Moving on, your application itself doesn't tell us much although your answers are well done. Adding onto that, what do you mean on Question #10 when you want to join to be noticed? Could you talk a little more about that please? Also, why GeNo over say, BoZ or Apex? They're all wonderful clans, so what do you see in us?

(Tugz's question will be last before we initiate Voting)

Hmm.... I feel like I'm not getting my points across.

I'm perfectly happy putting time into this clan. All the expected stuff is, well, expected. Most of them are just good manners anyway. I have a specific reason why I won't be very active on the chat, which I'll not share since it gets a little too personal.

Thank you for your words on respect. I'm not the greatest at it.

About question 10: For being noticed, it's nice to see someone who you've talked too before. I feel the same way when I see, say, Slashdown or Titanhunter (though they probably don't remember me).

There's not much I see in clans. I don't judge people by their clan, and a lot of clans are inactive in game anyway. At least, I never see them.

GeNo over BoZ or Apex? Well, first of all, I've barely heard of Apex before. The real reason, however, is that people are people. There's people in this clan and people in the other clans. People are usually pretty friendly as a rule, though this may be biased from spending most of my forum time on a super nice forum, so I don't really care. I don't expect extremely aggravating people to be in any of these clans - the application is there for a reason.

Lastly, I wasn't really looking to join a clan until TBurn asked me. He's asked me to do this before, and I'm pretty loyal to him in these terms. I haven't done much in clan, but that's because I was either AFK or nothing much was happening. RBU was very slow at the time of the tourney, if you still remember. I couldn't get into a match with my opponent, and then I think I left. In Psychal, I had essentially left the game and should've been kicked out in all rights. If I do that here, please do kick me out.

EBWOP: (sorry)

Turns out Apex is Apex Predators, which I do know. Quite well, in fact.
