Okey, so this is the second or third time this week where I have been unsure about who invited someone into the guild.
As ALL invites need to be run by me at this time, please post here if you want someone invited.
ALSO
Who did invite omgIisonfiyah?

k. Keep in mind that we are not inviting anyone until all captains seats are filled, and the front page is completed.
Also, regarding the invitation of regular members..
This is not going to be a normal thing. I want ALL members to apply NOT just be invited willy nilly.
Since that is the case.. you will need to run any hopefuls by either Aine (wicked) or myself.

I have told you who I invited, and you clearly gave permission. I find it odd that that person still has made no contact in here. =/

This thread is not for those who have already been cleared.
However, I am certain that I have never heard, nor given permission, for someone with the username "omgIisonfiyah"
So, to clarify.
Who invited him? And if it is someone that I gave permission for, why was I not told his username prior to the invite?

I've already told you what happened with me. People in Rebirth have been told about this guild, and they want to join this guild to have a good time. However, I told all those people that this guild is not technically open, and to not attempt to RP until an announcement is made that says it's open. omgIisonfoyah may have been one of those people, but I'm unsure.

Alrighty. ^_^
That's fine, I was mostly just making sure that he wasn't wanting a captain's position without being approved prior to his joining.

I have a friend who'd like to join and be my Lieutenant. I asked him for an RP Sample to show you all first, but I want to know if I am supposed to show the sample here or not.

Correction. I just read the first post xd His name is Hakizimana Lao Tzu, and if you need more of a sample, let me know and I'll tell him. Quote: Azaik jumped from the roof moving at a near Shunpo speed towards the bright light at the end of the road. He slid under the Hallow's legs his sword sticking up and cutting the angler Hallow's light off. He jumped up landed on top of the angular Hallow and poised to stab the hallow in its mask but it shook it's great head knocking Azaik off. Azaik growled with frustration. He'd been at this Hallow for 10 minutes and it was getting annoying. He jumped onto the nearest roof and jumped at the Hallow only to recoil from the fishing pole on it's head that no longer had it's light. Luckily the Hallow was just as tired as Azaik was, probably more seeing as it had to lug it's great weight around as well. He jumped far away again the taking a running head start towards the Hallow. Before he slide under the legs he lunched himself at the Hallow's mask. The Hallow hadn't been expecting a different attack and it was obvious due to the fact that it's fin like hands were between it's legs as if waiting to grab him. Azaik slashed at the mask and finally managed to vanquish it. Although his atheist like views still refused to pray to any god, he wished the spirit a well journey to which ever place it ended up. He cleaned then covered his katana by putting it in the sheath on his back. After he was done he called in, " This is Azaik Josef Ghost calling in to report. The Angler Hallow has finally been taken care of. I'll be back there in a minute so please have some food waiting for me." He listened for a few seconds before hanging up.

As far as amount is concerned.. he's not bad. But the rest of it is still a tiny bit.. off. 1.) Hallow? HOLLOW. Tis called that for a REASON. There is no mixing up of spelling on inter-translations here. It's a hollow, because it has a hole in it. (Pet Peeve) 2.) He uses a lot of statements, but doesn't really state HOW. Quote: Azaik jumped from the roof moving at a near Shunpo speed towards the bright light at the end of the road. (When does he get to the hollow? This sentence is out of place and the method of arrival is not complete.) He slid under the Hallow's legs his sword sticking up and cutting the angler Hallow's light off (HOW did he slide?). He jumped up landed on top of the angular Hallow and poised to stab the hallow in its mask but it shook it's great head knocking Azaik off (No transition, just another statement slapped next to the last). Azaik growled with frustration. He'd been at this Hallow for 10 minutes and it was getting annoying. He jumped onto the nearest roof and jumped at the Hallow only to recoil from the fishing pole on it's head that no longer had it's light. L uckily the Hallow was just as tired as Azaik was, probably more seeing as it had to lug it's great weight around as well (Minor Puppeting. I don't know the context.. but yea.). He jumped far away again the taking a running head start towards the Hallow. Before he slide (slid, and again, how?) under the legs he lunched himself at the Hallow's mask. The Hallow hadn't been expecting a different attack and it was obvious due to the fact that it's fin like hands were between it's legs as if waiting to grab him (More puppetting). Azaik slashed at the mask and finally managed to vanquish it. (Details missing for this level of a fighting post. How did he slash? Where on the mask was the hollow struck?) Although his atheist like views still refused to pray to any god, he wished the spirit a well journey to which ever place it ended up (You cannot be a Shinigami and an Athiest. It's impossible. Regardless of personal views IRL, this kind of thing NEVER belongs in this kind of role-play.). He cleaned then covered his katana by putting it in the sheath on his back. After he was done he called in, " This is Azaik Josef Ghost calling in to report. The Angler Hallow has finally been taken care of. I'll be back there in a minute so please have some food waiting for me." He listened for a few seconds before hanging up. Now.. like I said, the amount of content is more that what you would usually see in the average role-player. But I would still not place this guy at above fifth seat in power. And here is why.. broken down further. His entire post was basically this. He did this. He did this. He did this. He cut this. He did this. He did this. He believes this. He did this. He did this. He reported back. He hung up. Now, while that IS essentially what everyone does when they write out a role-play, when you follow that layout to the letter, it is boring, unconventional, and quite frankly NOT at captain or vice-captain level. (Which are the only two levels we are allowing in at this time.) There were NO transitions between sentences, rudimentary spelling, and a clear showing that this person has not been placed in a position of power where something was actually expected of him literacy-wise. If he would like to submit a better sample, I would be willing to look at it. But keep in mind that if it is more of the same, the response will be the same. Oh, and sorry if I'm being harsh, it's late and I've been dealing with crap.

Yeah. He informed me that he felt he did poorly, and was hoping to have a second chance at it. Same reason as you, it was late and he wanted to give it a try before bed. If it is okay, I'd like to give him another chance so you see his true ability.

Okeey. He can feel free to submit another.
BUT, I would like to specify as to the conditions of that post..
First, it needs to be a post as if he was replying to another role-player, NOT a private solo-role-playing style post.
Second, and this is really the more important part. I want to see details. Not just what he does, but the manner in which he does it. To me that is far more important than even the amount of text that there is.

Quote: Azaik looked away from his captain to the floor, his shoulders hunched as if he was trying to make himself smaller. His eyes were sad and regretful as they flickered from the floor to the female standing over him. His voice held a slight tremble in it when he spoke, "I-I didn't-It shouldn't have-I just went out a little bit!" He was getting faster and fast in his speech revealing the agony of what happened, "It was okay! It was quiet! I stepped out for one minute to do a quick sweep of the surrounding grounds! That's it! I ran right back and found her dead!" His voice was now soft and held a torrent of feelings in it. He kept hunching his shoulders smaller and smaller shirking from the memory of see his best friends and partner torn to pieces. " It must have snuck in right has I turned the corner because it didn't take longer than a minute to get back. He didn't make a noise…he…didn't make peep. I didn't even get revenge!" Unable to bear the thoughts any longer he collapsed to his knees his head bowed lower than his shoulders. "I wouldn't blame you if you severely punished me." His hair was attempting to tickle his nose but he didn't pay any heed to it. As he awaited his verdict his shoulders instinctive tensed as if he was waiting for a lashing across them. His whole body shivered from the tension and the shock from horror. When nothing came onto his back he looked back confusion temporarily masking the sorrow. He saw his captain staring at him, her eyes glazed from shock which cleared when he looked back up. Her face told him everything he needed to know. She didn't blame, instead she seemed to pity him. Her body stance was square, a firm, straight frame work capable of handling even the toughest of horrors and responsibility. Her thoughts ran across her face as readable as usual. She'd opened her mouth several times in an attempt to same something but seemed at a lost to say what was needing to say. He jumped up, not in joy but fiercely, in anger. He hissed his face dark with rage with that sorrow still tinting his graceful features," You! I'm guilty! Punish me for negligence! Blame me for it! Why won't you blame me?" His voice was loud echoing through out the hall. His body seemed coiled, ready to strike and was no longer trembling. Instead it was still, unmoving, as he icily continued his voice now down to a reasonable volume if not a tad low, "If you won't punish me then I will have to punish myself." He turned away but not before seeing tears drop down from his captain's eyes. He stalked away slamming the door behind him as he left. The frame was still rattling from the force minutes later. From mi amigo Haki! ^^

Hey hey, there. I've got another possible captain in the wings. His name is TheManWhoLivesintheClouds. TheManWhoLivesintheClouds Dobai was sitting quietly watching as the hollow attempted to stalk him, the hollow was cat like in the way it stalked him and he memorized each crucial detail in the patterns. Reaching down he pulled a man hole cover off of it's usual placement by about seven inches, as it was set in place he took off running down the street. Just as quickly as he had begun the Hollow sprung from it's perch and gave chase. As he reached the end of the street the hollow came up onto the wall trying to get an angle of decent to add to his attack, Dobai quickly corrected and veered back in towards the street's center. Trying to follow the Hollow collided with a lamp post and fell to the ground on the opposite side, there was a soft crack on the side of it's mask but otherwise unharmed.
Returning down the street the hollow soon gave chase, Dobai positioned himself just in front of the man hole waiting for the attack. Just as expected, raising it's arm into the air to take a sharp swipe downard. Taking two quick steps forward he placed the tip of his sheath into the back hip and drove it upward. With the weight offset the Hollows hand went into the offset hole, the man hole cover pinning it's arm deep inside. Smiling he walked around watching as it struggled like an animal to free itself. With one cool quick motion the hollow dissapeared and he was left facing nothing. "Strength means nothing if you don't know how to use it."
As he sat listening something peaked his ears, the soft sound of the wind flowing over something. Turning he saw nothing that would make such a noise, instinctively he dove as the noise grew louder. Just a second or two later something swooped through and back up into the sky. A flying hollow was rare, but they did exist and in a confined area they had the advantage. Coming back out into the middle of the alley he eyed the beasts amueverability with great interest and noted several pterosaur like qualities. Pulling his wakizashi from it's sheath he aimed it carefully as the beast came in for another attack it's bodily structure made for easy attacking while swooping at prey. The long legs with large talons sprawled out and aimed very carefully for Dobai's shoulder area as it closed in fast. When the hollow came in lower then the building's upper level he smiled forced into the tight position it's body was carefully positioned so as not to snag anything, a small light appeared on the tip of his blade as he announced, "Sai."
The beasts arms were pulled from it's side to it's back and it abruptly lost it's aerial advantage as it plummeted into the ground sliding forward. Dobai didn't even flinch as it slid forward, his wakizashi still pointed straight out at the hollow's oncoming mask. "Too many limitations."
