You will need to take the template below and paste it into a new forum post HERE, a staff member will respond to your application and let you know if you have been successful, or if there is anything you need to change. You can comment on your own application with any revisions that are requested.

• Please note that copying other people's answers is strictly forbidden. You may receive help with writing your application, but you cannot be given the answers - this is to make sure everyone have gone through our lore threads and the in-game rules.

Please respond to the following scenarios with what rules, if any, you can see being broken (specifically naming the rule) and what the player(s) could have done differently to avoid breaking the rules in each scenario.

Scenario One

You and your friend are Deputies in the town of Rhodes. You’re in voice chat with each other, checking on opposite ends of town, when a woman approaches you saying that bandits are robbing the general store. You tell your friend about the situation through voice chat and both run over to stop the crime in progress. Upon arrival, you find that the bandits are holding the store’s cashier hostage and are bringing him outside so they can escape on their horses, using the hostage as leverage to avoid being shot at by you and your fellow lawmen. Once they’re safely on their horses, the leader of the group shoots and kills the hostage before riding off with the valuables.
 

Scenario Two
You are a member of a group of outlaws. You and your group decide to rob a train as it passes between towns, creating a barrier on the tracks so that it will be forced to stop before crashing into it. The train slows and stops as planned, allowing your group to board the train with your guns out and begin holding up the passengers. One passenger on the opposite end of the train car immediately makes a run for it, disappearing into the nearby trees before anyone can think to stop him. You disregard the runner and continue robbing the other passengers, taking their valuables. One passenger starts to complain in out-of-character chat and refuses to roleplay their full $20 being on them, saying that you would’ve only found $10, attempting to stall the scene. One member of your group responds in the out-of-character chat, insulting the conductor and telling him to keep it in-character. Your group leader says to pause the roleplay while he reports the passenger.
 

Scenario Three
After submitting your application, you get accepted into the server. Excited, you load up the game and make your first character, Wyatt Earp, based on your favorite Wild West legend. You spawn into the town of Valentine and decide to explore the nearby woods to get a feel for the area. While wandering around, you suddenly get bitten by a rattlesnake. You try to make it back to Valentine but, unfamiliar with the area, drop dead. Having read up on some basic commands, you use /fixrevive to get yourself back up and continue on your way since no-one else was around. Upon making it back to town, you find that some sort of shootout must have occurred, the area crowded with onlookers and a few dead bandits and lawmen laying in the road. You quickly run up to the nearest dead bandit, searching him and taking his pistol so you won’t have to buy one later.
 

Scenario Four
Your character is in the market for a house and ends up spotting a flier in Saint Denis for someone selling their home on the outskirts of town. You go to check it out, meeting with the owner and getting a brief tour of the property before making a deal. You bring the required cash back to the house, handing it off to the owner who promptly tries to sneak away, making excuses about forgetting the paperwork. Realizing that this was all a scam, you hit the keybind you’ve set to immediately paste a line of roleplay that details tackling and restraining the man before he can get away. Unfortunately, the man is already on his horse and galloping away. Later on that day, you spot the same man that scammed you and immediately find a local lawman to help. After pointing out the individual that scammed you, the lawman runs over and lassoes the man, restraining him before he can decide to flee.
