3. How long have you been playing PB2?:

3 years, I started around mid 2011.  I found the game while searching for free online shooting games, and stumbled across the hacked version.

0 kills

0 deaths

0.00 KDR

Player Points: Not ranked due to inactivity in ranked matches.

5. Are you currently in a clan?:

No.  I made sure to tell all my previous clans to take me off the list.  

5b. What clans have you been in before?:

EKAT, Assn, Apex, BOA, Cyclix, GSA, Anti (barely), Xcution, Lethal, Unreal, Apache, TRS, GSO (long story), MMC (also a long story), Eclipze, Anomaly, Spitfire, UH (I think) PKMN, Starclan, Oasis, Relax.  Clans I didn't know if I was truly in or not: Anti, UH, GSO.  Forgive me if I didn't list all my previous clans, I can't recall all the clans from 2011.

5c. What made you leave your earlier clans?:

Assn: Everything was falling apart, so I left to help revive EKAT.
Apex: I left because of inactivity.
BOA: I left because of drama and inactivity.
Cyclix: they moved on to LoL.

Xcution: I left it because I left pb2 altogether.  For 1 1/2 years.
Lethal&UnReal: I felt like I didn't belong.  
EKAT: They left me.
Apache: They left me.
TRS: Death by inactivity.
GSO, Anti, UH, MMC: I don't think I was truly ever in these clans.  
PKMN, Starclan, and Oasis died of inactivity.
Relax, Anomaly, and Spitfire clans were my own pathetic attempts at a decent clan.

6. Do you have any alternative accounts?:  

Yes (about 25)

6b. Please list them with profile links:

Some of these accounts are my friends, a couple of them are for trolling purposes, some are from young foolishness, and one of them is my sister's.

Please forgive me if I couldn't source all my alternates, I used the s=19 link to find them all.  I'll try to pester the staff to make sure I have all my alts down.

I'm not sure if I created a couple accounts called: MostwantedAssassinxXx, JediObiwinkenobiZas, or something among those lines.  They don't show up on the s=19 link, so I don't know if I did create them or not.  If those are the missing alts, please give me the actual names >.>

Something interesting happened when I was searching for all my alts.  s=19 link didn't show one of my first ever accounts, which I remember quite fondly.  The account name was Oakmead.  Now I know that s=19 link is not reliable, so I will be trying to find any loose alts.  

7. Who recruited you?:

No one, unless you count the recommendation of Nexir's.

8. Why do you want to join BoZ?:

BoZ sets the bar higher than ever before.  When I look at all the application process, the FAQ, and the about page, I see that BoZ members pressure you into understanding just how much detail they have put into the application process.  It's that level of maturity that you can never really see in another clan.  

In other clans, you fill out the application, they either deny or accept.  Over time, I've gradually noticed that there are only two real ways to become a well known clan, a long lasting clan: get good members and make people want to be apart of it, or let everyone in, setting the standard lower and lower to accommodate more people, to be more well known.  

Why do I want to join BoZ?  You got it down.  You know how to really weed out the immature trolls from the rest.  That's something I appreciate.  No other clan has this method, since I've never seen any other clans put this much emphasis on phase one of recruitment.  

You guys make the first part of joining the hardest, because that is what people first see.  The recruitment process.  The people that want to join see this massive mountain they have to climb to even be considered worthy, and you see immediately the ones who can and can't.  

You're not one of those clans who stuff useless ranks in between and leave members on the members list that are not actually in the clan.  

I also appreciate how BoZ gives everyone a chance to express their opinions, and that you don't base clan ranks on the skill of the player, but rather by attitude.  You focus more on respect and community rather than the skill of an individual.  

I want to be apart of that.  To learn from the finest of the community.  Learn from the best and have fun while doing it.  To actually enjoy being in a clan for once.

9. Do you understand/have you read the “About” page?:

I have read the "About" page, and I understand how your chat works, how chat ranks work, that BoZ clan ranks are based on attitude, not skill.

I understand that all BoZ members must remain loyal to their clan and not screenshot anything that may give away BoZ.

I understand how the forum works and all the rules.

10. Do you understand/have you read the recruitment process?:

I have read the recruitment process, and understand the forum tags, how to contrast LDR to kills by multiplying it by 80, and the requirements.  

11. Which members in BoZ do you know?:

Nexir and Tex are awesome.  I talked to Jeff, X Mechanicv, Krow, Max Teabag, and Roxxar some, but I doubt they will recognize/remember me.

12. What can you offer to the clan?:

This is a hard question for me, because never have I really been a professional player, or a professional map maker.  I've always been that person who knew how to do things, but I've never found out how to put it to good use, or I've never had the time to.  

Every previous clan accepted me because I could offer my skills and work hard, making the clan active and more well known.  For BoZ, I don't think my skills would fit, because 1. The clan is well known already and 2. BoZ is filled with professional map makers and players, and neither of those am I good at.  

I guess I could make fan art for BoZ, since I like to use Gimp and manipulate pixels.  You can find some of my artwork here:

http://pb2art.wordpress.com/

I am willing to work very hard, if there is a potential task that BoZ requires.

13. How often do you play PB2?:

A play an hour each day, sometimes none one day, and quite a lot the next.  I am most active during holidays and weekends.

14. What server do you usually play in?:

Washington 1, around 4:30  ET

14b. What is your average ping in that server?:

For Washington 1, my ping is 50-70

For European Server, around 100-200

For California Server, around 100-150

15. What is your favorite map?:

My favorite map of all time is spike nitros-rgn2.  I appreciate that the map  makes clever hiding spots for ambushing, the ease of getting to high ground, and the ability to fight both below and on top evenly.

My favorite non-approved map is a map I forgot long ago.  It was the first map I ever played, and I think the purpose of the map was to hunt down the ghost, and not let him infiltrate your base.  I was amazed that the ghost could disappear, and you couldn't see him.  I was like a child discovering for the first time that you could make your hand disappear if you hid it under your blanket.

16. How do you play PB2? (Any specific playing styles?):

I like to get the high ground and rain nades down upon my enemies, watching them explode.  I use the high ground to my advantage so I can just shoot downwards and hope I get lucky.  

Sometimes, I like to take risks and self boost halfway across the map to the nearest enemy, hoping to swipe his head off.  It usually ends up with me dying.  

I try to find a good place to stand my ground in arena maps, a place that I feel will cover me and doesn't compromise my shooting.  Camp like a champ, a BoZ member once told me.  (Forgot who, I'm sorry)

17. What country are you from?:

USA, 6 hours away from Washington D.C.

18. Extra comments/questions:

I'm sorry I don't meet your 4000+ kills requirement, I will try my best to get 4000+ kills again.

I reset my KDR because my KDR dropped below 1.3.

I've never been obsessed with PP, since I wasn't born into the era of PP, so it has no meaning to me.

I once left PB2 for over a year.  I can guarantee that it will never happen again. I plan to remain active.

I wish to get to know most of you, and become good friends.  All the BoZ members I've met so far are cool.

19. What are you applying for: Member or Trial Member?

Trial Member, since I do not have my 4000+ kills yet.  I'm trying to get it up, and I made the mistake of resetting my KDR.

Thank you, I hope you consider me as a potential member for BoZ.  I would wear the [BoZ] tag with pride.

>Question 5b.
If you did not include every clan you have been in, there is a high chance of denial. Also, you did not provide a reason as to why you left the clan "Eclipze."

>Question 6b.
Same thing with the alternate accounts, there is a high chance of denial if you did not list them all.

I did notice a significant amount of effort being put into this application, something I personally appreciate.

Most of the answers provided did seem like you cared about joining and would value being in the clan. If this app does become denied, just know that I, in my perspective, think you should keep trying (if you apply again, remember to update it)

5b. I left Eclipze because of inactivity.
6b. I tried my best to list them all, but I recall creating two other accounts. I forgot the. IGN of them, so I cannot get the link. I'm not sure if I even actually created those alts. I will keep looking.

Thank you Krutz.

I love this application.

Very through and original application, yas very good

No flaws really except for if anything, maybe something in the alternate accounts/previous clans answers

This may be a long application but more feedback and opinions should be generated on this application as we should put in the same amount of effort in reviewing the application as the applicant did in creating it. This application was well thought out and feels like it was written by a real human so definitely members read & comment so a decision can be made

This is more picky but:
Your answer for why you want to join BoZ though...
It felt like you were trying to tell us about our own clan inaccurately...  "You know how to really weed out the immature trolls from the rest." the irony though .-.

"I also appreciate how BoZ gives everyone a chance to express their opinions, and that you don't base clan ranks on the skill of the player, but rather by attitude.  You focus more on respect and community rather than the skill of an individual." I didn't actually know about this, not really sure where you're getting your information of our clan from... again its sort of like you're trying to tell us about our clan which you don't really know about .-. ... or do you...? r u a 1st gen member in hiding lul

I might've written too much that it subtracted from my true meaning. I was intrigued about our "about" page, so I overdosed on that.

I have no idea whatsoever what I meant by "weeding out the trolls". It might've been 4:20 at that time.

As for basing your ranks on the attitude of players, you stated that on your "about" page.

I enjoyed that bit quite a lot, and that's one of my main reasons for the yearning to join.

I know I'm not that skillful, and I can't really control that. But what I do have control over is my attitude. My mindset. BoZ thinks outside the box, in my mind.

haha didn't mean to criticize just give my bit of input, but yes it is true though that we don't have an insanely high regard for skills of players, but then and again there aren't many clan ranks to begin with, and yes in a sense we do prioritize community over skill since now most of us are all in clan because of the people > the game

Nice app. Out of all of the recent applicants I've seen, you have one of the most solid reasons for joining BoZ. You seem to be a relatively active member, judging from your activity on the PB2 forums. Only thing that would get you would be forgetting alts/past clans on your app. Good luck.

Thanks, Pini.

You partially restored my faith in humanity.

Ty also Glee.

Maybe Xcution? I never played a big role in the clan's creation, though.

Hmm

I Think I might've found the clan you mentioned.


http://plazmaburst2.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=77&t=11650

Anomaly clan. It was going to be a real clan, but I gave up on it.

All my members were my alts, and I was both leader and co-leader.

The clan post was a joke post, so others could see the proper way to make a clan post.

I listed Anomaly clan in my application already. Is this the clan you were thinking of?

I looked at the post. I'm not a recruitment manager so I can't officially pardon you, but I think we should let this slide. It's clearly meant to be a joke post and isn't a legitimate clan.
EDIT: Since it's already listed in your app (assuming you didn't edit it), I don't see why it should cause any further problems.

There was a clan that had an actual website. Not a joke one.

You can't remember the name of it at all? Not even the first letter?
