Your real name or age (Optional):
I'd rather not give out my real name, but you can call me Red or Akai. I am 19.

How active are you in game?:
I am on about every day, with some exceptions when I have a large workload at college or a long shift at work.

Joined any previous guilds? If yes, which one(s) and why are you looking for another guild? (You must list all your previous guild(s) - we will conduct a thorough research. If you're in another guild at the moment. Please state what's your current guild on your application:
Taken - very short lived guild in g2-g3
Shizukesa - guild i was in for over a year, left it because of drama and came back later once it had calmed down, then the leader disbanded it after she married the guild officer in real life (and to anyone wondering, they are doing great and even have a kid now! :3 )
Glacialis, Skorch, Peaca - all essentially the same guild, same leader(Lextzo) and same members just different names, I don't recall why but these guilds never lasted long
Visions - I don't really remember this one, I was there for just a short time
Lostones - I don't remember much of when I was in Lostones either, but I was in it for a few months
Rayout - The guild I've been in for the large part of the past year or two, I love all the people in it, but I'm leaving it because its been very inactive for a few weeks now.

Why Dreams?:
I'm looking for an active guild that will challenge me and push my limits, while still being a fun and family-like environment. I would also like to add my life skill services to this guild as well as to the whole community.

Who have referred you? The person who referred you must post in your application as recommendation (you need at least 2 referals):
n/a

How long have you been playing?:
I played on my human, Redstar117, since late g2. However, I changed my main to my elf, Redstar118, about 2 years ago.

What kind of skills/accomplishment do you have?:
My biggest two accomplishments would be getting Grandmaster Archer and Master Artisan talents.
Aside from those, I am also a decent bard.

r1 potion making
r1 handicraft
r1 carpentry
r1 metal conversion

Hi red and welcome to the application process. Your app seems fine, with enough info for us to see a little about yourself. The only question I have so far, is have you been involved in any "drama" in the past that we should know of? If not how would you react if involved in an argument with a guild member or someone outside the guild? Besides that i'm jealous of your life skill loving, I just cant do them very much lol.

**Nemui** 06/12/12, 09:32 pm

Hello~ Thanks for applying~

Can you list reason(s) why you left each guild to the best of your knowledge?

**Redstar118** 07/12/12, 07:45 am

@ Kevin24
I was involved in the drama in Shizukesa,

*WARNING: DRAMA STORY BEGINS HERE*
So I was married to the guild leader in game, and then I wasn't able to get on mabi for a couple months. When I finally got back I found that she now had 6 more husbands and 2 more wives. This distressed me a lot and I probably got overly emotional at that point, so I left the guild to calm down, and she did drag me back a few times. In the end I got over it, and now me, her, and the guild officer are all great friends!
*DRAMA ENDS HERE*

Other than that there has been a bit of drama in the past in Rayout which resulted in people getting kicked out, though I was never really involved with it, I try to avoid it.

As for arguments with a guild member or someone outside the guild, they don't really bother me. I've had my fair share of arguments in guilds before, but in the end this is just a game and were all still friends.

@ Nemui
Most of this was several years ago, so please forgive me if I get the details wrong.

Taken - I really don't remember much about this other than a friend asked me to help him make a guild. He quit shortly after, so the guild died.
Shizukesa - The first few times I left was because of the drama, the last time was because the leader disbanded the guild.
Glacialis, Skorch, Peaca - I think the reason why I left these and joined again so often was because my wife kept dragging me back into Shizukesa even with all the drama. I'll ask the guild leader about it to make sure, he was also sorta involved in the drama, thinking back on it now it seems a lot like a comedy act lol.
Visions - I didn't feel like I fit in, aside from that I don't remember.
Lostones - I honestly don't remember why I left, sorry. I'll try to get in contact with some of the older members to see if they recall why.
Rayout - I'm leaving because of the how inactive it's been, and because I feel like I need to go out and join another guild and meet new people.

**Toshimitsu** 07/12/12, 09:02 am

This is classic of example of why in game marriages do NOT mean a thing in the real world wise. UNLESS you plan on dating this person AFTER knowing them several months/a reasonable amount of time and plan on having a committed HEALTHY relationship. I cannot stress how many sad sob stories I've heard about Mabinogi couples breaking up over stupid things.. i.e. Facebook/Twitter statuses, in game status, rumors. You just don't mix internet life with your real world life unless the two intertwine. It WILL end terribly. /end rant

If you were asked to leave the guild for whatever reason, spouse/good long friend after having been accepted into Dreams, would you leave? It is hard to get accepted back into Dreams in some cases there is no second chance due to how notorious rumors spread about the guild.

Other than my spiel, good luck on your application

**Nemui** 07/12/12, 11:20 am

Our guild is a family, and everyone has their differences and see things differently. This doesn't stop each of us from making an effort to understand and learn from each other. Sure, there will be times where a member doesn't understand something that happened in the past in the guild, or times where you will feel left out, but that doesn't mean you don't belong in the guild.

Your reason for leaving Visions stood out to me the most; If it were to happen here, where you don't feel like you belonged, how would you respond?

**Leidolf** 07/12/12, 11:45 am

You want to leave Rayout out of inactivity and yet your applying to Dreams another inactive guild. Why so?

**megen** 07/12/12, 12:32 pm

I must say that your RB ratio to the total lvls is very nice!! My compliments to you...I am very interested in your application Red. Very detailed, very strait forward. I like that.

Can't wait to hear what your answers to all the questions will be. GL on your app! cheers

**Redstar118** 07/12/12, 01:58 pm

@ Toshimitsu
Oh, I should probably note that we're no longer married. It would be very weird to be married to her when she already has a real life husband lol.

As to the question, no I would not leave, the most that I would do is put an alt into her guild to go on and chat with them on occasion (On that note, is there any guild policy against having alts in other guilds?). I decided that this is the guild I wish to be in, and that will not change so easily.

Thank you for the luck Toshimitsu, I'm sure I'll need it! :3

@ Nemui
After putting a lot of thought into why I didn't fit in to Visions, I've come to the conclusion that I probably just didn't stay in it long enough to get used to everyone. The other guilds that I had been in, I had already known most of the people in it, or were newer, small guilds that had just started recruiting and grew large while I was still in them. So now I think that if I felt that way, I would still stay, and if I still felt that way even after a long period of time had gone by, I would try to figure out what's causing me to feel that way. Hopefully I could arrive at some solution from that and fix it.

@ Leidolf
I don't see Dreams as being inactive at all, seeing how many responses there are to my application already. In Rayout I'm usually the only one on for most of the day, and it's rare to see more than 3 people on at the same time. There have even been times when I'm the only one thats logged in for several days in a row. =(

@ Megen
Thank you very much Megen!

I hope these answers were good, I admit I am still slightly unsure about what do to if I felt I didn't belong. While giving it more time does seem right to me, I also don't like that I can't figure out a solid plan of action for it. On the bright side I don't think this will be a problem, I'm really enjoying talking to all of you throughout this application so far! :3

**Keo** 07/12/12, 03:57 pm

Hello red, ty for applying and Good Luck.

I guess I really can't find much to ask you, your application looks well thought out, so I guess just some good ole fashioned questions.

How do you handle criticism and rumors? There can and will be those times while your guild name reads "Dreams"
Also how do you feel about perversion? - We have a lot of these moments- lol

**WICKEDTONY** 07/12/12, 05:40 pm

I will wait for your response to Keo's question about criticism since thats about the only question I myself can think of atm so far so good.

**Younglink96** 07/12/12, 08:25 pm

Hello Red, I am glad you finally decided to apply!

I believe back in noob days, I would sell you ores so you can rank up refine/blacksmith I don't really remember haha!

Anyways, so here are my questions:

As you can see, there are many people applying for Dreams, why should we accept you? What makes you unique?

In our guild, its like a family, we talk bad to each other, but at the end we can still sit down at the "dinner table." If someone was joking around said something to you how would you handle it? What about if they weren't joking around?

That's it for now!

Good Luck~

**Leidolf** 07/12/12, 08:27 pm

Kash you are still this guild's number 1 skrub.

**Younglink96** 07/12/12, 08:32 pm

Lei, you are still a noob, who is not only being a bad RO by derailing an app, posting things that are irrelevant and making yourself look stupid. ;p

P.S you are still the guild's number 1 noob fishing for compliments! Very Happy

#Winning.

**Toshimitsu** 08/12/12, 12:09 am

No there is no rule for alts in another guild. We do allow alts in the guild if they are your own as long as no one else has access to them and no ill intentions for using them. We've had issues in the past where this was a problem and have had kicked players out of the guild as well as other means when it comes to this matter. What goes on in the guild should stay in the guild and trust is hard to earn back.

**Redstar118** 08/12/12, 01:19 pm

@ Keo
Thank you Keo.

For criticism, if it's constructive then I am happy to hear it. If it isn't very helpful, like if the person is just trolling, then I'll either ignore it or joke around. As for rumors, I would try to correct the person if it was false, and if they refused to accept it then I would just ignore them. Though I admit I don't have a lot of experience in dealing with this.

Perversion is something I pretty much expect in every guild I join, I don't think I've ever been in a guild without it lol. I really don't mind it, and will probably even join in! Besides, I doubt that there will be more of that in Dreams than there was in Shizu and Rayout lol.

@ Younglink96
Hey Link! It's been a while, and yeah it was refine. I remember how I had accidentally gotten way to much dex, and r1 prod mastery, before starting refine so it was hell... Thank you for the help!

You should accept me because I'm a great person to know in a zombie apocalypse! Just kidding, I'm so going to be a zombie. :3
More seriously though, I'm generally up for anything from shadow missions to guild events. I can also help people train their life skills, from giving a good prod party boost and using r1 harvest song, all the way to helping them get the materials they need to rank up. I also enjoy chatting with everyone in the guild and you can talk to me about anything really.
What makes me unique is that I'm the reddest miniature life skiller archer soon to be puppeteer there ever was! Also I'm crazy. Life skill crazy. :3

@ Toshimitsu
Alright, thank you for the info. I do have my wife, Dumdadido, come onto my account to get my premium items and do the daily quests when I'm away on vacation and don't have internet access. However, if that will be a problem then it's ok, I can manage just fine without those getting done lol. Also, I do change my password so she only has access during that time.

Also, I think I need to point out that I am going on a vacation on Dec. 16th to Dec. 23rd, and wont have any internet access. I apologize for forgetting to mention in my application that I usually wont be on during vacations.

**Keo** 08/12/12, 08:02 pm

Your achievements include a lot of life skills, but I'm curious about your range/melee/fighter tabs and what ranks those might be at, it is a great thing to have life skills but it is equally important to have fighting skills the same, if you don't mind sharing those with us.

**Leidolf** 08/12/12, 08:06 pm

Keo his sniper title on the image already says a lot about it.

**Keo** 08/12/12, 08:09 pm

I'm allowed to be curious and to ask I'd like to know what he is into I see his sniper title and he can range I'm a fan of that just curious?

**Redstar118** 09/12/12, 06:34 am

@ Keo
Here's all my skills, I don't mind sharing them at all. I just wanted to keep my application a bit shorter, otherwise I would have had them there from the start lol.

Life:

Demi:

Edited to be images instead of a list, thanks for the advice Toshimitsu.

For the most part I just pick out skills from the other tabs that give me dex, or give me some other kind of advantage. So I'm mainly an archer, sometimes a bard when I remember (I forget I have the skills a lot lol), and soon will be a puppeteer as well.

**Toshimitsu** 09/12/12, 07:14 am

For the record, screenshots are a little more solid than going off a list.

**Keo** 09/12/12, 07:39 pm

I thought it would look pretty well rounded I'm glad to see it was up to my expectations, I am impressed by your dedication to building your character and the diligence of your skills ty ^^ and Good Luck again.

**Leidolf** 09/12/12, 09:24 pm

Are you the kind of person to mix well with people or are you more of the loner type?

**Redstar118** 10/12/12, 09:28 pm

@ Leidolf
First off I would like to apologize for taking so long to reply.

I would say I'm the kind of person to mix well with people.
For example with shadow missions, while I can do them on my own I still prefer to be with a group, It's more fun to work well with a team, and having chats during them is also fun.
Besides, if I was going to be a loner then why would I apply to a guild at all lol. It's because of how lonely it got in Rayout that I left, I really do want to talk and interact with other people.

Also, I would like to update that I now have r1 blacksmithing thanks to the double rainbow!

**cassa** 10/12/12, 09:49 pm

Hey Redstar. Thank-you for applying to Dreams!

I don't have any questions for you (most were already answered) but wanted to make the comment that I think your cheerful personality really shines on your application. Also, life skillers are awesome Very Happy

!

Good-luck ^^!
