	I'm considering applying despite the fact I am banned from the DDO Forums. I'm pretty sure they don't want someone like me but Vargouille did say: Quote: We want YOU! Especially, we want a wide variety of players. So if you think you are the kind of player we might not want to hear from, that probably means we really want to hear from you! https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/454719-We-are-now-taking-applications-... Maybe we'll see how serious he is.

I mean, come on, if THAT'S the bar we have to cross, then maybe I don't wanna be a part of your silly player's council! Next you'll telling me I have to use my INDOOR VOICE and my walking feet!

	I feel like they just work harder at getting input and feedback from the more casual players. After all: that's how you could hardcore players and whales. Nobody signs up for an account and five minutes later drops $5,000 on huge stacks of Otto's boxes and Sovereign I potions. They try the game out, the play for a bit, if they like it, they keep playing, and spend money. A casual player's passing impressions are going to provide a better idea of what's helping retain new players. I've been running a guild for several years and had a policy of basically recruiting anyone who showed up on the chat channels and said "I wanna be in a guild!" and then watched those characters go dead 2 weeks later and never log on again(I usually started booting after 8 months or so) we are talking fresh off the boat from Korthos level 3s who made it to maybe 7 before quiting. Now, MAYBE some of those people just made new characters. MAYBE they were broke-ass kids who thought "free" meant all the functions of WoW but no monthly cost. Maybe some of them thought the game sucked and quite. I don't know, but a long-time casual player might have a better idea about that than a hard-core, nuts-and-bolts go-getter. First-life, first-characters face a COMPLETELY different set of challenges than third-life completionists, and I don't know if the PC cares

	I don't want to be a clown, ty.

	Dear players, The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means. Love, People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly

	I was thinking about applying, but being that I'm a little burned out I'm not sure if that's the kind of person they would want. Also it has crossed my mind that the last time I gave my toon names to someone, it didn't work out very well.

	If the Turdbin devs would be willing to share some info on exploits they find out about (and before they patch it), you know, just so I could help persuade other players to not exploit and stuff, then yea I'll join.

	Having a few infractions doesn't seems to be an hindrance to sneak in the PC. ( I even had an active one last year when I applied ) Now I guess that being banned make it difficult, and the higher the infraction count the more difficult it's going to be accepted... But don't let a few infractions stop you...

As part of the application - no. Too much effort. Final short list - absolutely. They wouldn't want the embarrassment of last year.

	So you want to know about an exploit? PM Epoch For Details. Or, in case you don't already know, OnePercenter controls the Exploits Board. Lastly, if you're truly desperate, Vendui Tells Everyone

Sorry Mo. Quote: We're pretty lenient about the definition of "active". The main thing is we aren't looking for people who don't really play the game, but want to theorycraft, or people who used to play the game several years ago but no longer play today. Your time frame sounds fine. bolding is mine.
