Faction Request: Application & Rules
Introduction
Hey guys, JohnC here.
Today i'm going to teach you the application process, and rules to request a faction. Any faction requests prior to this post are now Declined, and i will be deleting them within the next day or so. So if you have anything you need to grab from your old posts, now would be a good time. As the new Head of Unofficial factions, my job is to review requests, watch over you in-game, and decide if you are ready to become an Official faction on the server. The reputation behind this department use to be Abysmal, being impossible to actually get a request accepted, and a faction made. And also known as the Alternative to donating for a faction (Which is faster, and easier
). BUT this way is definitely the way to go, Not only does it show that you have put a lot of effort into making the faction, it will also show that you actually will put in the effort to keep your faction professional and well RP'd. So, enough of my talking. Lets move onto the steps.I Hope this explains well enough on how to make a Application, Good luck to Everyone that applies!
How to Request a Faction
Follow these rules before you post an Application!!!
Step 1: Think before you Post!
A lot of people tend to go with their first idea, which isn't always bad. But most of the time isnt always good.. Always think before you post an application. Consider if it will actually bring RP to the server, or if it will actually have a purpose.
Example
Step 2: Basic Rules before you make an Application
Here are some basic rules to make sure you comply with BEFORE you actually make a application, Failure to not follow these will result in an Automatic Decline
- The Unofficial faction must already be operational
- You and your members must have already been active for 1 week
- The current Unofficial faction must consist of 5 members (Including Yourself)
- The leader of the faction must have at least 150 hours on their specific account (Exceptions can be made)
- You and your faction must be Active during the Application Process
- You (The Faction Leader) may not have any Non-RP Admin jails within the last Month
- You (The Faction Leader) may not have been banned/unbanned within the last month
Step 3: The Application!
Finally, the application. Make sure you copy the application correctly, and answer every question. Failure to comply with these requirements will result in a automatic decline

How to go fast through the application process
There are some ways to make the application process faster, here are the ways that this can happen
- You (The Leader) are currently a Roleplay+ Member
- Your members have been RP School'd by a Admin or RP+ Member
- Past Experience (ON THIS SERVER) with leading a faction
- Known to be active by the admin team
Step 4: The Application Process Stages
Here is each step that a application goes through, before its approval.
1) [Awaiting Review]: At this stage, I (Head of Unofficial Factions) have yet to look over the request, at this time NO REPLIES can be made.
2) [Recon Stage]: After the faction request has been reviewed, and passed onto the next stage. The application moves onto the Recon Stage, this consists of a 4-5 week watching period; and gives players a chance to see how the faction roleplays, and get the general idea of the faction itself.
3) [Awaiting Voting]: After the faction request passes the Recon Stage, i decide either to Decline the application, or to allow it into the voting stage. At this point, it will need a at least 5 +1's, or 5 -1's; Which ever is reached first will be the verdict. (This stage is only to see if they Player Community likes the idea) At which i will reply with the verdict, and close the thread. Note: Faction members listed in the request MAY NOT vote on the faction request.
4) [Judgement Stage]: If you have passed the voting stage, then you move onto the Judgement stage. this point is the longest out of all of them. This stage can last up to 1-5 weeks. During this stage i will be watching over you and the faction in-game, to get a feel for how your RP is. Other admins have input on the decision, and help with the watching over. The final vote is made by the admin team.
5) [ACCEPTED] or [DENIED]: This is the final verdict, after all is accounted for; being from the admin team's opinion and of mine (Head of Unofficial Factions), we decide to either make it a Official faction, or Decline the request.
6) [Inspection]: If your faction is Accepted, and made official. I (Head of Unofficial Facitons) or another Faction Review Team Member will be assigned to your faction for a Post application Follow-up. This stage could last for 2-3 weeks. Depending on certain Situations.
