DOGS OF THE STATE: KINGDOMS[4.31] [Mature] [Military Minded]

[Willam]

• Have you READ everything before this? Yes: before, after and in-between.
• How long have you spent looking around The Mothership? Hmm, roughly 15 minutes or so.
• Where are you from (Example - Iowa or United Kingdom)? Iowa... honestly. Born and raised.
• How old are you? 34
• If you are not 18 or older, who is your Sponsor?
• What gender do you wish to be know by? Male
• What is your Minecraft Username? willamthegamer
• What other games do you play on a semi-regular basis? Guild Wars 2 is taking most of my "personal" freetime.
• What role do you enjoy taking the most in Minecraft (Eg: Farmer, Builder, Explorer, Digger)? This is a hard question to answer as I enjoy all these things when they are needed or warranted. It's all fun in my book.
• If you are added, how often do you intend to be on? 2-4 days out of the week would probably be a good guess, but it really depends on work.
• What is your schedule like, what hours do you most often play? Anywhere from 1pm to 4am (depending on work). I'm "scheduled" to work 7am-4pm Mon-Fri.
• Why do you think you will be a good fit for the Dogs of the State? With loving BTW and Minecraft aside, I do love a friendly atmosphere, and the closer I get to people, the more I want to help. Tight communities are quite enjoyable to me and it brings me much enjoyment to see a big project come to completion, even more if it's a group effort. =)
• (Optional) What have you seen worked well on other servers that you might like us to implement too? Hmm.. off of the top of my head, I've got nothing, but I'm sure there's something laying around in there that could be of use.
• (Optional) If you have any history of Military service, what branch were/are you a part of, what was/is your rank, and where were/are you stationed? I do come from a family of servicemen but I could never find the courage to do it myself. You all have my respect and thanks.

We welcome willamthegamer to the server as a Probationary Player.

We also must instagate a temporary freeze on applications untill we get some donations to keep the lights on. Thank you to those who have donated thus far.

In the coming days we will host a Treasure Hunt and other festivities.

[danw3st]

...some donations to keep the lights on.

I'd like to see the lights stay on.

If you're confused about how to donate go here: http://www.dogsofthestate.com/

If you're confused about how much to donate, well, that's up to you.

[Incomitatum]

What a flood of support, thank you all for your contributions.

Dan, Phantagor, Short, Lampost, Jade, and Eclipse have all made donations. Thank you. With the kitty filled more, we can get back to playing and not worrying about the depressing money side of all this.

END EMBARGO! By all means, continue to come by and look at the server.

I'm planning to do so in the near future but I haven't donated yet so ... o.O

[Incomitatum]

That's right. I fixed it. I saw it came from germany and forgot about Phantagor. I dunno why I though he was in South America. :S DERP

emtffkev

Good to get your AP; have you been on the server, looked around and spoken to anyone?

[emtffkev]

I have been on a couple of times, but haven't had an opportunity to look around yet because I'm still in the jail. I can jump on at any time though and meet up with someone.

[Incomitatum]

Everyone, please accept emtffkev as our newest Probationary Player.

In other news, we have't seen Pinecone, DaDodsworth, or Darquen3ss in so long that they are going to have their property anexted and encouraged to start over OUT of the town if they ever come back.

Moon is also going to be asked to pack up and live out near Baker.

Lastly, FreetoRule's probationary period has come to an end. After further review we feel there may be other servers that would be a better fit to his play style.

So thats why I couldn't log on today. Ah well. Back to regular minecraft.

[freetorule]

Or you know, another server. Well, see you all later

[DaDodsworth]

I'd like to apologize for my inactivity, Things can get rather random with my work load, and recently I've kinda been busy with work and other personal things.

However, I don't mind building outside the town area, I actually was actually just coming on to take down my base and tell you that It would be better since I'm rather inconsistent with my visits, but it says I'm banned?

[Incomitatum]

DaDodsworth,

We'll let you back on, the "ban" was the only way to lock someone out in case there were angry repercussions to our decision.

[Incomitatum]

In other news: lordnaylor has been accepted to our server.

He is NOT a Player. He is not a noob. He is something, different. Baker has decided to sponsor him, and he has no colors.

You may have noticed that we are in the middle of a Forum Registration freeze. This acts to protect us from the waves of retards that would gum us to death with their stoopid.

Naylor has proven to be much more intelligent than most and so we are giving him a chance. Though, we are keeping him in Adventure more untill he can fill out an application. His patience will go a long way in impressing us.

As Baker's Ward he will be engorged, enchanted, and encouraged to eviscerate for experience.

Welcome, lordnaylor.

[freetorule]

Okay.

[Incomitatum]

FreetoRule,

In all the respect I can muster for someone who has been "let go"; be advised that you don't really have any authority to decide what happens to the property that you once occupied.

As you know it did not work out with you on this server. I would encourage you to find another and ask that you cease posting here.

Bone for Tuna,

-Incomitatum

[DocHussey]

Given that I'm having some strange connectivity problems today, I bounced on and off a couple times. Please ignore this, as I will follow the guidelines posted in the OP and leave the maze/view the buildings, and if things go well, fill out an application once I diagnose the issue I'm having. Thanks Incomitatum!

[Incomitatum]

DocHussey, alright, good to hear from you, we hope to see you soon.

Aradanwen, is a good kid. He was NOT able to pass the interview though. He does not exhibit the critical thinking skills we need a player to have. As such, we hope he can find another home. Again, he was VERY polite and followed the rules well, but he clammed up during the interview.

TheNumbNess is now the Ward of Phantagor. He is still and Adventurer and is to protect Phantagor and be his pack mule. LordNaylor has a similar arrangement with Baker and they both seem to be cool with it.

[lorbog]

The relevant info is

• Those who are not 18+ require someone to sponsor them (see application).

I'd like to welcome DocHussey to the server on a probationary basis, though given his forum-cred. I am sure he'll do just fine. Furthermore, thanking him for his military service and all the other vets we have and have had in our midst. I haven't said this to some. Thank you.
