I can somewhat understand why getting a phone call would be a problem. When you rely on other people, and are basically mooching, you don't ask for more than you already get. I know that between my roommate and me, if he cranks up the heat too much, I'm charging his ass for electric. That's my bill, and I don't like it increasing from $60 to $100. If I don't like his attitude, and he increased it only by $15, I'm charging him.

When you're a mooch (sorry Velosity), people already don't like your attitude. Getting calls at night, during kids' naptime, while people are on the phone, while people are on the internet... They may get pissed off and charge him.

I can also understand the requirements that you have phone. If they want to call you, then they want to call you. You'd better have vocal communication to

a. prove by your demeanor and voice tone that you have maturity, physically and emotionally.
b. prove that you can control your own environment, which requires financial independence, a right reserved for adults.

I said that we are making the phone calls and we get charged, not you. If you do not like our way of hiring then don't apply! No one is forcing you.

Whoa, sure Ill sign-up...or try out ... or whatever you call it lol, hand in a application That would be freakin awsome being able to be a GM on EQ

and BTW, a phone call is np for me like it seems to be by others ... Its pretty easy to tell if your under 18 when your on the phone with a 11 year old who sounds like a lil mouse, so i can see why you guys would want to talk to them on the phone...., no offence to the young ones

No offence taken on the mooch comment. Go ahead and throw out my application then. It seems you do not wish to leave the option of other forms of voice communications. I am 18, my voice proves it. I have no problem communicating in that manner, but one thing you dont understand is me giving out a phone number that isnt mine, getting calls from people I do not know at all, and being on the phone for this when the people i live with live on the phone. It just wouldnt work

As i said, discard my application then. Your right, no-one is forcing me. But in order to do something that I am more of capable of doing, you need to talk to me verbally seems rediculous when there are other ways of doing it

Velosity just your attitude on this post has disqualified your application. You jump to conclusions wrongfully and you get upset at the slightest inconvinience to yourself. To add I am handling the call not calls, and if you can't trust me with just your phone number, I wouldn't want you to GM my server.

Default Duties?

What are the duties of a GW GM? I could assume, but I'd rather not.

Velocity and whoever else doesnt like it:

These are the rules. This is how it is going to be done. I was happy to personaly delete your application from our queue. As will i be happy to delete anyone else that has a problem with this.

Why should we trust you with that kind of power on our systems when you cannot trust us? Cant get a phone call because of money? WE CALL YOU (well image will) YOU PAY NOTHING.

maybe if things are that bad where you are staying maybe you should spend less time on the pc, and more getting a job and a new place to live.

Thank you

Ask yourself...."Will i listen to what a minor tells me to do?" no offense to any of the minors that play. but c'mon....it's not unreasonable to ask for an Adult to fill that kind of role (And i know some of you may think that being 18 doesn't make you an Adult). When i was younger i told everyone i'd get Cigs for them....now tho (being 19, boarderline 20)....that $500 fine for distribution started to look nasty....It's a Mentality thing...

Just my 2 cents worth....Correct me if i'm wrong

I didnt apply to be a GM but I would like to say I enjoy playing the server and respect the steps you take to choose GM's this time around.

Actually we definately look for bi-lingual people as we seem to get quite a few of Spanish and French speaking people on EQEMu. So if you speak multiple languages (Well, not one year of spanish :P) Tell us!
