It's not even hard to look at the last couple pages of submissions, see what gets denied (which is practically everything on the pages), and not doing that on your own submission. Notice how bad grammar, being younger than 18, lack of replays, and lack of lemons have almost perfect positive correlation to being denied. You don't know how to grammar? Spend an extra 20 minutes to make sure your post is at least readable. It doesn't need to be the Queen's English, you can literally write in casual off-handed language so long as it makes sense and, lord forbid, you put the time in to format the text. Seriously, the space bar is the largest fucking button on every keyboard, get used to hitting it.

Can't upload replays? Then figure out why and post your application when you can. You're almost certain to get a no without them.

Under 18? Don't just say you're mature, show your goddamn maturity by putting the effort to make your post look good. I'm personally going to take one look at somebody saying "I'm 15, but I'm mature." followed by a well-formatted post, and take that claim at face value. I'm certainly not going to accept the claim if what follows the claim is a bunch of nearly illegible text.

And I'm DEFINITELY not going to take your application seriously if you don't even fill the entire application. If the application asks for a goddamn lemon, you will provide the BEST FUCKING LEMON YOU HAVE EVER DRAWN IN MS PAINT. Because that's the point of inane tasks on an application. It weeds out the people trying from the people who just really don't care. I stood for 2 fucking hours for a job interview, and I didn't sit down at all because it was part of the goddamn application process. And you know what? I was the only fucking person to stand for the entire time, and I was the only fucking person to get a goddamn job that day. So suck it up and start wiggling that yellow paintbrush.

There's a reason why certain clans have more prestige than others, and it's because they aren't as loose as the crack whore on the corner every night. That's probably the reason why you are applying in the first place. You want the prestige of being in a successful, well-known clan (we're not retarded, everybody wants this, including us). So we're going to hold EVERYBODY who tries to join to a high standard, and you should at least fucking try, or give the impression of trying, if you want to stand a chance at acceptance.

You either put the effort to sell yourself to the clan, build a good reputation before applying to the clan, impress the clan without an application so that they ask for you to join, or fully expect to get ridiculed and rejected. At the very least, even if you fail to make it in, you don't permanently sully your appearance with a half-assed attempt at joining.





That being said, incompetence can amuse me, so please continue.

Also, hi guise, i comeback for tl;dr post of irritation.
