Accepted FC_MercuryEL7 Application

McBrawl Creative Ranks Application:

What rank are you applying for? - I am applying for the rank which I personally believe is appropriate for me at the moment, AdvBuilder.
Do you understand what this rank provides? - Yes. I am fully aware of this and it is for this reason to which I believe is appropriate for me as my builds may not be as satisfactory for intermediate ranks. To my knowledge, I understand applying for this rank and if I am ever so fortunate to be granted the rank, I will have these abilities.

• Access to /warp world2
• Access to command "/item"
• Given the ability to claim (1) plot in World2.

Are you part of any Building Teams in our community? - I am currently not in any building teams in the community primarily because I felt I would be an unnecessary in a team due to an abundance of great builders that dominate them. However, I was in various teams in past servers, and created a few spawns here and there.

What is your experience with building in Minecraft? - I consider to be a veteran when it comes to the experience I've had with Minecraft. I started to build the same time I discovered Minecraft while browsing YouTube videos. To my disappointment, I could not make the purchase at the time when it was at Alpha stages. This lead me to play to the now outdated "Classic" version that was available for free for users. The only thing I could do was build, since it did not include the survival elements Minecraft has been synonymous for. I would build for hours and hours working on sprites of various logos including a Windows one and an Apple one just to name a few. After an unexpected search result which was purely searched for curiosity, I discovered the 'Cracked' version of Minecraft which was surprisingly an exact copy of what was then 1.8 Beta. The game was more widespread, and my imagination followed. Again, I watched another Minecraft series which featured a castle mod, only this time I was instead inspired to build the amazing-sized castle. I spent a few months copying block per block based on video of the castle, in survival mode. When the castle was done, I was proud to achieve such goal. I believed that it was this time when I truly discovered my true potential of building.

Fastforward a few days after this and 1.0 came out. Survival was at its ultimate form, and I discovered a feature which would save me a few days in my life, Creative. Switching back and forth, I would build extreme houses and structures. I basically build everything the wiki mentioned. The experience led me to create a building better than the last one. I thought that this was the best thing I could do in Minecraft.

Continuing to the 1.2.5 update, I discovered my first Minecraft server which was almost vanilla except for a few admin plugins here and there. I met a few good friends there, and we all agreed on achieving the server's goal to get ranked and thus go to a world which was protected from grief but still survival. We had to reach lvl 60 on the exp bar that rests between your health and hunger bars before we could build our awesome structures, and when we did, we decided to compete with other teams. It was a trend if you were to go to the newly granted world, you would build a "village" for all of your friends to live. These villages were massive, it was basically a work of art and team. By the time we finished, we were all pretty good builders and some of us discovered the world of redstone and its hidden powers. I later left on to move on to other servers, and they followed too. I will never forget the many months and sleepless nights we would spend building crazy structures from scratch.

Why do you need the rank? - This rank is nice to have due to the convenience it will give if you wish to build structures that require a bigger plot. I am currently working on some projects, and some of them may require a bigger plot in order to exceed its full potential.

Show us a picture of your current build -
This is a new project that is intended also to be an awareness that some foreign governments are taking control of people. Dictatorship is not dead yet, and these people deserve better treatment. These countries have protests and heated conflicts that are becoming excessive. It is my way of showing support and that we care. I apologize for its early stage it is currently in and may not convince you to grant this rank to me.

Some of the few builds which I captured.

• Early stage of a new "village" we made with Japanese architecture inspirations: http://imgur.com/a/t9Leo
• Working Redstone build project for school: http://imgur.com/a/uD5rL
• Original "village" with some minor griefs (used for evidence. Unfortunately this covers a small portion of what we did due to the server shutting down after 2 years): http://imgur.com/a/e7lGI

Do you realize if you abuse any commands or privileges rank will be taken away? - I am fully aware of this fact every time I will logon and logoff. That is why I will be sure to always follow the rules, do the right action/choice even if there is a lack of presence of other players. This rank is not foolishly to any player, which is why I will be considerate and not have the ones who chose me be disappointed to me. Signing up for this should basically tell a demote will happen if I am abusing my rank. I understand if I were to be caught in wrongdoing, shall the appropriate consequences take effect.

Thank you for your feedback!

 

Your opinion is completely understandable. I agree most of my builds are not impressive, since I have a bad habit to have imaginary deadlines and feel the need to rush. With my current build, I am motivated by your comments to change that as I took more time doing the interior of buildings. I felt this type of comment was what I needed to improve and I thank you for doing so.

 

Thanks for the feedback! As mentioned above, I will try to fix my weak spots in order to be better.

 

UPDATE: Part of one of my current builds is my new project of a Modern house simply for something to have fun at. It has more attention to the details as it is one of my weakest points. Currently my main focus project and will always have something new added.
