Byond ID
The_Walking_Problem
Marine Name (so we know who you are; if you play alien mostly, state that here):
Ruslan 'Slav' Dautov, and i do play relatively a lot as xeno

Name/Designation of the Synth Character you’re requesting to use (Follows common naming rules, and requires a first name with no last name):
Examples of acceptable names: James, Mason, Xavier, Felix, Otto, Allan, Jessica
Examples of unacceptable names: Obama, Jesus, King, Dragon, Godly, Snyper, Circuits

Trevor

Are you familiar with the Synthetic Programming and Guidelines (viewtopic.php?f=57&t=14)
Yes, i have read it multiple times
Synthetic Character Story (An ADEQUATE description and story of your Synthetics actions and involvement in a previous mission onboard the Almayer):
► Show Spoiler
How do you intend to play your Synth (as in, describe HOW you will act/play your Synth and what support roles you’ll mainly focus on, what is your synthetics quirk)?
My synthetic's quirk is that he is extremely honest about everything, which can result in some very awkward conversations. And i believe that the medbay is the best place to have those conversations, although Trevor can be helpfull everywhere. Would be really cool to have those RP moments when marine asks stuff like "will i survive" and Trevor just carelessly tells the marine the calvulated possibility of the marine's survival, doesnt matter if its high or low. And throughout the round he will, or rather might learn that sometimes it is preferable to lie just to make someone feel better, that, however depends on how his communication with marines plays out
How familiar are you with support roles? (ie; Medical, MT, Science, SO)
Medical
I've played a lot as a squad medic and doctor, i can perform surgeries without needing to constantly read wiki, most of the chemistry i also have in my head.
Requisitions
This is honestly my weakest side,although i do know how the process of ordering supplies and attachments works, i never had practuce in it, except those few rounds ehen i played as SO and had to prepare supply drops myself
Piloting
I have played a number of rounds as a pilot both for Alamo and Normandy,i know how to load them and overall i am familiar with piloting
Security
I have played a few rounds as MP i know the marine law and all the processes tied enforcing it,although i knlw that synths cannot enforce it
MT
Squad engineer was my first non-PFC job, so i am highly familiar with that part of engineering, i have played a couple of rounds as MT,and i have figured out all the aspects of fusion reactor and tank management, so i believe i am highly familiar with engineering in general.
Science
As i understand, science is a bare bones job, which is highly RP oriented and involves autopsy, two things i believe i am good at.
Command
I have played a number of rounds as a SO, so i know how everything in CIC works, i also believe i am somewhat skilled in leadership.

Why should we whitelist you?
Because i asked politely Because i believe that synthetic is one of those roles, that give you limitless possibilities to provide RP for yourself and others,also i just really like support roles, and synthetic is a combination of them all, and i find that fascinating
Have you been banned from CM in the last month for any reason (we will check, and lies may result in immediate denial)?
No
Are you currently banned from any other servers and if so, why
No
Do you understand that any player - donor or otherwise - can have their whitelist status revoked should they break our rules or the Synthetic Programming Guideline?
Absolutely
Note: unga english is not my first language,but seriously if you find any grammatical or any other kind of mistake in this application, please feel free to show me.

Neutral leaning -1, your grammar is poor but that is always able to be fixed. I am very underwhelmed by the story as well, all it accomplishes is showing that your synthetic will be brutally honest, but I don't see how he evolves in softening the truth like your depicted playstyle said he would.

Though the backstory is definitely has the length to it but like Jakkk says doesn't show off you quirk exactly the same but it definitely showed off what your main part of the quirk is. The quirk itself is a unique enough quirk and can work really well so that's nice to see. I wasn't really too sure on which way I wanted to go with this application but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Final note here being you definitely do need to work on your grammar.

+1.

This app is quite old, and I have to believe you should probably know how to do requisitions before you apply for synth.
You are highly active and I think that gives you a positive note in general from me. I think this deserves a +1 as your story gives me exactly what I want in a story. It shows off the side of your quirk and how you want to show it off in game.

In essence, I have to agree with kavlo and the way he described it.

+1, but more community feedback would be lovely.

I'd say the biggest issue with your application would be the grammar, synths should be speaking English very fluently and having them fail in that way would be a bit of an issue. So you definitely need to improve in that regard. I think you show you know how to work with your quirk and it's a unique enough one to take as well, as well as the note of activity from aceluke being a good sign.
I'll give this a +1 with the note that community feedback would be needed here, and that you really need to work on your English and grammar.

This probably needs a bit more feed back from players.

You are playing synth. Two medics, notorious troublemakers, have been punching and disarming each other. One of them pulls a gun and aims at the other, who draws his own gun in response. Whar do you say / do?

There are a good few other players that have managed to secure a whitelist and even positions on the staff team that manage to produce higher quality applications than this, grammar aside the story is disappointing and your quirk is portrayed rather weakly, this is a good concept that could use some improvement. -1 for now.

Gotta point out that the guy hasn't logged in on the forums in the last 20 something days.

Personally I felt the story was alright, and that the quirk worked. I would give this application a +1, but ThatKazakhDude hasn't responded to some of the questions asked in this thread, and I can't speak for his activity at all.

Acceptable quirk and use of it in the story. That said, grammar drags it down so work on that next time.

The main thing that makes me is the lack of responses to feedback. It's like this app was fire a d forget. -1.
Troublesome, as usual.

Hasn't received enough feedback -1, more activity in general is needed so people can give feedback on these applications.

Never seen you in game, so I'll be judging off of your application alone.

My major gripe with this is your grammar. Grammar is very important when you're playing roles like the synthetic for many reasons. It makes you look more professional, it gives your synthetic an air of realism, and so on. All in all, your grammar 's not that great, but I guess it can be improved.

The story feels decent. I agree with what Jakkkk said in this case, quirk is fine but I find some issue with this: "... or rather might learn that sometimes it is preferable to lie just to make someone feel better, that, however depends on how his communication with marines plays out." This isn't shown in the story, but it's fine as you said they might learn in the round. What I do want to ask is, don't you think this kind of dumbs down your quirk? There's not much sense in making a quirk if it gets dampened by something else.

Good enough answers to the rest.

Honestly, man, I'm a bit on the fence but I'll have to say neutral leaning towards -1. Grammar's the biggest issue here, plus you haven't really responded to anything. I don't see much effort overall.

Really haven't seen you in a while. The grammar is subpar, yes, the story is alright. The quirk is alright. Passable, I suppose. MattAtlas 'sort of' puts up a good point with the dampening yadda yadda, but one part of my own quirk is you can quite literally turn it off.

I'll -1 this simply because it's "EH" all round, and you've just went inactive recently. Haven't seen you at all.

I don't know enough about you to offer any positive, or negative. I've actually not really interacted with you, and this is mostly the issue with xenos currently. I hope it's fixed.

I'll be staying neutral/undecided in my vote, because I can't without good conscious, vote one way or the other on my own findings.
