Asairia, Asairia (@ Nick Winterz)

2. Are you currently participating in our Roleplay?

Yes

3. Have you ever served on our Roleplay Committee before?

Yes, ever since our RP's refounding in 2016 I have served non-stop as either its chair or as a commissioner.

4. Have you read the Roleplay Handbook?

Yes, I wrote it and have authored most of its amendments.

5. Who is allowed to participate in the Roleplay, and under what circumstances may they do so?

Citizens who are in the Discord are permitted to roleplay once they have spoken to the Cartographer about creating an acceptable claim. Furthermore, residents may roleplay if all of the following are true: they have a forum account, they are awaiting the conclusion of their naturalization phase before being masked as a citizen, they have been in the Discord for at least 3 days, they have obtained a waiver from the Roleplay Committee, and they have spoken to the Cartographer about creating an acceptable claim

6. What technology level and year variance is our Roleplay set to?

Modern tech + five years variance.

7. What is godmodding and when is it allowed?

Godmodding is any action or ability that gives a player or a group of players an unfair advantage or is otherwise not realistically feasible. It is also used to define the abuse of out-of-character information for in-character gain. It is never allowed.

8. How long do Roleplayers have to freely edit or delete their post(s) before they need to ask for permission to change or remove them?

Within 30 minutes of the post's publication.

9. In your opinion, what is the Roleplay Committee’s primary role?

The Roleplay Committee is tasked with overseeing, regulating, and stimulating the roleplay as a whole to provide our citizens with a fun experience tailored to their desires.

10. Why do you believe you are best suited to serve on the Committee?

This roleplay is one of my most beloved things in this region. Ever since I refounded it in 2016 during my presidency, I have constantly worked to make sure roleplayers have a fun, friendly place to let their imaginations flow, and I am the longest serving citizen to be involved in the management of our roleplay. I have continued to be a source of sound advice and most would agree that I am one of the few who care the most about our roleplay. I would be honored to continue to serve as one of our RP's caretakers should I be given the chance to do so.

Thank you for considering my application!

APPLICATION FORM RPC

1. What is your nation's name on NationStates and Discord? Please state them in that order.

Levantx, Samuel.aka Levantx (@samuél)

2. Are you currently participating in our Roleplay?

NO

3. Have you ever served on our Roleplay Committee before?

NO

4. Have you read the Roleplay Handbook?

Still reading it, Needed to fill in this form before the deadline of 2th April (tomorrow). But I am sure that all information on these question are to be found in the Handbook.

5. Who is allowed to participate in the Roleplay, and under what circumstances may they do so?

The most logical one is that you need to be present on the MAP to actually participate in Roleplay. Only (registered) citizens can apply for a spot on the map, and to get the most out of the Roleplay experience you need to be masked as Roleplayer in our Discord servers (so that extra access to certain channels are granted to the roleplayer?).

6. What technology level and year variance is our Roleplay set to?

Modern times technology with a margin of 5 years (apparantly).

7. What is godmodding and when is it allowed?

Is it allowed? Never heard that before! Godmodding is event that the roleplayer makes use of information which he/she cannot possess while "In-Character" (IC). A situation also called GOD-MODDING, because of the personification of playing as 'GOD' as in the 'all knower'. A mistake made often by mixing both IC and Out of Character (OOC) information or communications. Roleplay realise only on the constant IC use of information and interaction. While OOC is used to boost activity or guide the IC events on a more macro level scale.

8. How long do Roleplayers have to freely edit or delete their post(s) before they need to ask for permission to change or remove them?

I do not know exactly, I believe a acceptable or reasonable amount of time limit (not long). I guess so long as other RP'ers haven't reacted (yet) on the post?

9. In your opinion, what is the Roleplay Committee’s primary role?

In my opinion I think that RPC is main objective is there to stimulate Roleplay in the Region. Create the good circumstances to Roleplay in and maintain these conditions. It should act as an arbitrage board and a fact-checkers board, it can also function as an OOC hub related to the Roleplay realm of the Region.

10. Why do you believe you are best suited to serve on the Committee?

I think I am an Okey Cartographer a skill which is now in demand I believe ? The notion of me being of different opinion in the board can give the necessary friction or activity boost to the Roleplay environment. EXAMPLE OF A MAP , which can function as an update on the current map.

9. In your opinion, what is the Roleplay Committee’s primary role?

The RPC overlooks and maintains the rules that guide a roleplayer's actions. We make sure that the RP remains fair and fun for all players.

I am one of the most active RPers in the region with exceptional experience within the RPC, having served on it so many times. I am willing to change as the RP changes and have no hesitations about taking control of the RP when it becomes inactive.
