Question #1 - Integrity Check - Three Sentences:

"Lead creepers into water; they do a lot of damage and can be overwhelming! Water removes their damage to blocks."

Why did you choose this rule?

I am tired of seeing servers with creeper destruction everywhere, it makes the world ugly, and I don't like to pickup SO many dirt blocks (not including the dirt blocks I would have from rule 5) just trying to walk around.

Also because the question states "different from the one chosen by the previous applicant (at the time of your post)", I didn't choose :
"Absolutely do not use cheating texture packs or block manipulation tools - the only acceptable client modifications are regular texture packs, mini-maps, and optifine." But I would have if that was possible.

If I misunderstood a part of that I apologize.

--

Is there ever a situation where an exception should be made to this rule? Please explain your answer.

If there is no water nearby, or if the creeper sneaks up, that would be fair, unless he/she was in third person.
But I still think the user responsible should clean the area up.

--

If you could add another rule to the server, what would it be? If none, why?

I would add "You should not be seen with diamond armor without PROOF of actually making it, or being an admin".

-----

Question #2 - Motivation Check - Three Sentences:

Why are you interested in playing on a Vanilla SMP server?

I enjoy plugins sometimes, but I believe Vanilla is a fresh and clean game-play experience
that provides a challenge.

-----

Question #3 - Dedication Check - Three Sentences:

What do you feel is your greatest accomplishment in Minecraft? Why?

My greatest accomplishment is probably learning how to run my own free server.
I used to have some friends that would play on there too, along with a Teamspeak server as-well.
The server I ran lasted for almost two years, but I stopped because I ceased to remain friends with the people I used to know. They started to Grief, I hate Griefing and do not tolerate it.

Please understand that because I trusted them, I have been banned from a few servers, but I swear to you that I HATE Griefing, or any type of hacking.

-----

Question #4 - Comprehension Check - Minimum of One Sentence:

How do you report suspicious server activity?

A player should report suspicious activity via the forums.

-----
I hope you will take this application into consideration.

It looks like a fun server and I would like to join.

If it helps you to know, I have been playing Minecraft since Beta 1.4

Thank you for your time.

Excellent application!

I want to whitelist you, but things like this leave me uneasy:

I understand.

I'm not proud of griefing at all, but from my past experiences with it, I don't recall ever spamming.
Even then, I found spamming extremely annoying and just plain rude.

I have completely given it up and I feel ashamed to bring it up again.

Once again I apologize for my past experience with it.

I will (if allowed on the server) never cause trouble like in the text link you posted.

Thanks again for your time.

I think we could give him a chance if you feel comfortable with it.

No big deal, I can understand how you feel.

I can relate since I've had my own server.

So, no I don't mind being watched for a little while big_smile

I know that My application is being processed, although I thought it already has been, but in-case you forgot, I'm not whitelisted yet.

I can wait, but I'm just giving a reminder.

I haven't been whitelisted yet for some reason... So I was forced to look for a new server for awhile.

Every server has Griefers and X-Rays...
So I thought I would drop by again here and see if I could still get whitelisted.

This is my last attempt, if this isn't my ticket to play on a good server, I'll probably just go back to single player... sad
