Rpg example from site:

Artemis walked toward the large wooden manor before him. He would find answers here, and take it over if need be. He put on his glasses and switched through the displays. He finally settled on heat vision and looked for a being within the wooden building. spotting that their was one he quickly opened the doors and looked inside. The only thing he saw was a wooden throne, a dog laying next to it. Artemis then turned and looked at the doors a plaque hung from the one on the right and read, "Turn away or suffer.". Artemis chuckled and turned back to see a girl standing before him. She ran toward him screaming. he dodge her by sliding to the side. He instinctively put his left hand into the palm of his right. He squeezed hard until a blue spark ignited above his middle finger. He then put his hand up as if going to throw a javelin. The girl turned and began running at him again. As she did the bolt formed in Artemis' hand. He threw it and it hit the girl between the eyes. She flew back away until she slammed into a wooden wall and fell to the ground. Artemis watched as the girl's heat signature finally ended. He took off the sun glasses and put them in his pocket and looked around the place. No one was there except for animals. "This will serve nicely as the new Fowl manor till I can find out where I am." he said to himself as he went to sit in the throne chair. Artemis lit a small lantern and placed it in the seat then wondered what he should do next. he then turned and saw the girl's body was gone.

Test Gradesheet For Moderators

[/color] and STAFF?[/b]

In the first week you being here, it was kind of effie. You had read what I written to Bloodmoon, which was fine by itself. However, before anybody else joined this site, or really getting to know this site better. You spoke about your character Artemis, should be chosen to wield that weapon I hinted at. You gave your opinion on why you thought Artemis should have it, however from my view it was not really the best of reasons. I may have thought of letting you get away with it, but it sort of clicked something in me that was not right. Artemis has lots of power already, and he is getting away with a lot. Being a human with stolen fairy tech, and is able to reset his mana. Granted, the site was incomplete and I had not at all gone into detail or made final decisions. A reason I went ahead and let you get away with it. It just, there was nobody really active on the site, and it was too early for that sort of call. You should have merely been aware that this was event or idea will happen, and that it was your job to prove yourself. After me telling you specifically what I was going to be looking for, you made your suggestion. I don't know if this was a sort of comeback for telling you no, not right now, or you were merely suggesting more ideas to it. That would have been all fine and dandy, except later that day or the next day.

The very thing I specifically typed in not to look at, a spoiler mind you. It was alright to look, I mean it was nothing really major, just testing tags and codings. However the point is, not only did you look at it, but you attempted your best to quote it. You can argue that you did not quote it, but there's a code to prevent that, so instead, you just pasted it removing the quotes. Exact same post as the one I had made in the admin account. Honestly, it stressed me out a couple hours, that you were challenging me, and since the site was still in pre-stage and not at all even close to being finished, this was bad very bad. For it is never good to start a site with someone challenging the admin. It makes both the admin and the site look bad. Now, the best avoidance was to tell you to stop, which I made an attempt. Though sadly, not really my best point of my personality, which both Magna and Bloodmoon can tell you this. A thing I am seriously going to be working on, on this site.

Now you did improve yesterday and a few days before, I don't know if it was because of what the short story I told you, doubt it, the fact there's more members, or if it was because of the simply the fact you were planning to apply to become a staff member. I also got to learn some of your backstory in the roleplay life, which eased the stress I had toward you a bit. Although, it was only two days, I know of. You could go back to that phase you were at the beginning when you first joined, at any given moment. Maybe if you post below telling me exactly why you did this and that, I may give you a chance on this. However for now, you have until the final Staff vote comes in, to prove that you respect both the members and staff. It is up to you on how you plan to do that.

Alright, you have improved so I will give you this point.

☑ Is Creative

I haven't seen much of it, but I think you could be creative if you tried really hard. Also that you really haven't been in many threads and interacted with many characters, so the creativity as of current, is limited. I did however look at that warriors bio you were willing to show me. The whole battle scene with the collar on the leg, a lot more creative then the typical choking on the neck from the book. So I will give you this one, however do try to be more descriptive and creative overall.
Remember, if you are checking bios, you have to have the ability to suggest alternatives, and plenty of them. Sometimes if you get someone thinking in the right path, you can get some seriously interesting characters. You will as a moderator expect to make suggestions to members in the chatbox, on possible idea. You have already shown, you are willing to do that. I am sure with passing time, you will improve.

☒ Has pretty good Grammar

You grammar does need a bit work, specifically with commas and spelling. Could you start using the spellcheck before posting anymore posts. If you are confused about a word, look it up on Google, or ask somebody around. If it really helps, Firefox and I think Google Chrome too, have an auto spellcheck that requires no long loading, like here on the forum.

☑ Not bad Graphic Skills

I actually originally had this marked out, mainly because you didn't try to improve that thing I sent you, not really. Merely just bolded, you also need help on some codes. On top of that your posts don't really have that much coding in them. You didn't even bold, so if anyone else wanted to join, that had to read to figure out where Artemis was speaking. Yes, this is a good habit for writing books, however here, it helps to bold and/or color the talking. Kind of allows kick skimming to catch up from other members or possibly even guests debating no joining. It really just helps to do that simple task. I do expect you to improve on this, I am letting you pass, but you barley passed this. Also you may wanna change the TM's on Coralin's bio, because you kind of ruin the stars I had there. That as a possible future moderator does not at all look good.

☑ Speaks opinion truly - speaks out their ideas

Yeah, you do this. Hands down. Though don't be stating the obvious again, Bloodmoon knew about the bio situation, you did not have to repeat it.

[/size]

☑ Receive staff popular vote

Alright to prevent me from making the judgement, since it is just me. I will pm 4 people that I totally trust. It will be up to those four if you get this checked or not. Give it two days at least for me to make final call.

GOOD NEWS: YOU HAVE BEEN VOTED IN!

[/size]

☑ Very Active

You are active, especially during the week. I think that since there's more members, you will be tempted to try and be on here more than you were before. So, I am going to give this one to you.

[/size]

☒ Slightly Above Moderate posts

Ehh, this needs work. You are able to make a paragraph, but that is intermediate, and not high enough. Please try and add more description and ideas for the post. You do stay in person, that is always absolutely good.

[/size]

☑ Tries to improve posts/bios/etc

You have actually shown this last night, this I believe will separate you greatly from the person I was comparing you to. On top of that you are willing to listen to reason, as you have proven about again and again. I think as time continues, you'll improve much over the years, if you keep doing what you do.

[/size]


☑ Okayish idea on codes - is neat; easy to read

You were able fix that little thing I sent you, although it was a test and should have been a better fix. Not only that, but I now know for sure you did not know the url code to allow text and some other codes. That however, just requires somebody to explain it in pm.
