That's what I do. I dislike making an applicant wait for a response so my turnarounds are within 24 hours.
That being said, the short application and OOC interview are my gauges to see if an applicant is fit for my group. I do not and will not cater to people that don't fit with our established mojo.
Two options:
1. Make your own FC
2. Find another FC
I have directed a good bit of people away from my company just based on a few criteria since I ain't about compromise lol.
Sounds about right. I especially look for some focus on the FC culture and especially on RP from a FC application process. The process should bring in people you want, and not be focused on excluding those you don't.Â
The recruitment process is a good indication of the FC and any process that is over 60% about what not to do is a sign that this is an oppressive FC in my experience. So buyer (applicant) beware.
I got five rules. Rules one and three are the same. Rule five is a joke. So I got three rules, really.
There's a common misconception that since we all play the same game/same hobby (RP) that we're all able to play nice with a different group. That's a lazy and idealist point of view. Have your group and nourish your group. It's like any real life group of friends. There is indeed individual FC culture. Through my many travels both in the real world and in digital, I can get a good feel for someone based on their application.... such as their ability to form coherent sentences, an actual interest in the group rather than "I'm bored and need constant stimulation me me me me!" and other indicators. Couple that with a chat and blamo. It's much easier to personalize an OOC interview than to have a large application.
Also, I hate long apps since I'd have to read all that shit and would have no one to blame but myself.
