Screaming's Vir-aak Hu'ai-n Pred App

[jusa297]

Alright, let's look at Bolter's review of this app, sure he's got a bit of salt or personal anger or something visible in there, but at the end of the day it's criticism, and it's not like he's targeted this app with his 'it's raw' meme, it's more of his general way of being dissapointed in the lacking quality most predator apps contain these days. If the applicant took this as a personal insult or something of the like than it show's he's got some maturing to do.

Ok, here's what his response was:

The story was terrible for what it's supposed to be. What you wrote is one long ode to the basic concept of "My Predator is special and he killed a thing." That's it. What's unique about your character? Why should we care? What makes him different, other than suicidal tendencies because he's depressed and believes his life doesn't matter? The story was shit. Not spelling and grammar mistakes everywhere shit, though there were some here and there, it was shit because it accomplished nothing of what it was supposed to, which is establish your character, make it believable, and display some of your skill at storytelling.

Your playstyle is different from the way the story is bad. Your playstyle boils down to "Does not directly attack but will be sneaky and use traps, also is not scared of dying." What, in any way, is unique about this? Or rather, unique is a bad word. What makes it interesting? It's you being sneaky and using traps. Spoiler alert: Predators do that all the time IN ADDITION to their playstyles, and far more in addition to that.

-1. (IT'S FUCKING RAW.)

Here's his response but removing all the unnecesary insulting:

All his main points are there, except that you aren't distracted by all him calling what you do shit, and instead gives you why he thinks what you did was shit. That's what it boils down to, it isn't about what he says, it's about how he says it. There's a difrence between saying "This isn't up to my standrads for X and Y reason" and saying "this is washed up garbage for X and Y"

I really have nothing constructive to reply to that comment with outside of insults about your ability to not be hurt by words someone typed onto an online messaging board.

I'm not hurt by what he says, I just think that if he wants to be mean for no reason except the sake of it, that he should pepole to react to him in that way.

I think, just looking from my perspective. Is what's even the point in acting so rudely critical? That's my question, he reviewed my app being slightly rude and I'm fine with that, however I do not like how people reply to it. Your are the applicant, these are your peers, they will see and decide whether or not they will support your application. You as the applicant are literally forced to accept their negative and critical reviews, you aren't suppose to be mad if someone makes a rude review of your application. That's just how it works.
My biggest overall concern is how Screaming's reaction was to his post, honestly it was extremely childish. You're the applicant, pulling the "Staff Card" and saying they can't act however the hell they want is just utter stupidity, so you're going to pull a staff card when Feweh is just being himself on literally any thread? I wouldn't think, mostly because that's WHO they are. They aren't here to pander their community as little children, as the same with applicants of this whitelist. Just due to that reaction I cannot say I would support said applicant. It's childish and I don't support whiny children to have this whitelist. -1.
Also, his constant posting of "Oh I wish more people would review my app" is blatantly obvious, I've been the same way too but you must own up to that mistake. You clearly are extremely eager for this whitelist but your aren't ready. Maybe by a lore stand point, possibly, maybe every other quality besides you as a person is ready for this whitelist. However you as an individual needs to grow and improve, you aren't ready and only time can change if you are or aren't.

-1, Boltersam always reviews pred apps with an iron fist, and your reaction to it wasn't entirely okay IMO. Also I think the one time I interacted with your character, it wasn't a good time. May have been a different person but I know for certain the last name was the same.

I usually stay outa applications, but I decided I would give a vote here. Story was bad, as bolter said. What really got me is how defensive you got. You gotta remember, you aren't entitled anything here. This is not a title that you're gonna get with no effort. Getting predator involves having the ability to take critique and have thick skin. If you have an attitude like this as a predator you're gonna get removed pretty fast.

Anyway, there's my input

[Rustarus]

The way you decided to defend yourself against bolter was almost threatening. He pointed out all the flaws, and does this with all the other pred apps. The way you handled it killed my +1 that I may have given you. -1

Denied.
