Title: Application - Vedder/Calhoun
Post by: Vedder on August 15, 2021, 03:00:24 am
Nick: Vedder/Calhoun

Age: 19

Timezone/Country: GMT -3 / Argentina

Previous Nicks: Calhoun, biozcalhoun

Additional Comments: Hello. I am applying again after four months of my last denial, with a strong desire (even bigger) of joining this clan. Furthermore, every day that passes, I get more convinced of my interest for being part of this group of people.

What I can offer to VU is naturally my unconditional support for any of the members, backing them up in every conflict that might appear; and helping to build bridges every time is needed. Participation in discussions, votations, team-playing. I am here to work.

In these months; new (first) serious job opportunities popped out for me and gladly, I was able to be successful at them. Lot of work and study, but couldn't be enough to keep me restrained from the game (I managed to join every week, and visited the forums everyday!). This job was a great opportunity to keep developing myself. I learned about organisation, managing times, effort and eficiency.

So here I am. I want to be helpful in projects, groups and I also want to have participation in every matter within the clan. I have a lot of expectations for further improvement and learning.

I don't look back at the past, because everyone here knows it already; but If you feel like asking me something about it, I will surely do.

Thanks a lot for considering me the last time and regardless of what your decision will be now, I am going to respect it and keep trying.

I’ve been positive for you since a really long time knowing that you’ve realised your mistakes and you really want to compensate. It took a lot effort and patience for you to be where you are today.

I hope with this much consistency, you can convince and change mindset of people who’ve had problems with you. I am voting trainee.

You've been around for a while, joined a few other clans as well. What makes you keep coming back to VU?

You've been around for a while, joined a few other clans as well. What makes you keep coming back to VU?
Since my last departure from ULK, I spent these years thinking that I was going to turn a 10-years player in VC:MP. That is, quite a lot of time.

I had realized then, that regardless of any purview and environment I could be standing on, I would never be able to leave this community.

Therefore like every human and animal, if I am not leaving a community, then I'd like to be part of a group that could make me feel the best way possible within.

There are three caracteristics that VU holds, which make it to me the ideal clan and place: its goals, competitiveness, family.

Goals: this group of people is responsible for maintaining VC:MP ongoing all these years, and VU has turned so big that it would probably remain when comes the day VCMP is not played anymore.
How could you not be interested in joining this group of guys, that has maintained a community in which you've been 10 years already and has constituted an essential part of your life? How could you not do your best to share that goal and keep the VCMP legacy ongoing?

Competitiveness: VU competitiveness is absolute. I want a clan that could challenge me to rise from the bottom, that could require the best of mine to participate in competitions.

Family: you have personally told me a thing, Ferrari, that I can't forget. That old story about VU acting as a real family even though you don't know each other in person.

I am studying to become a teacher. A teacher is a person that gives, helps, transforms and develops. This is what I want to do for my life. I think that VUs engage, as a family, with these four words.

To summarize, this is a wonderful group of people.

Debe ser como la vez n° 10 entre todos los clanes xd

Aunque en VU solo estuve una vez, como dije en el chatbox el otro día. Una vez que salí no pude volver a entrar.

Ahora y desde hace dos años no veo otro clan que me guste que no sea este.

Sorry that isn't correct, less than two years ago you were in ULK and also founded your own clan afterwards.

Yes, I apologize. Sorry, my mind is not working right now.

I was in ULK a short period between 2019-20 and then founded my clan around January-February 2020 which lasted very little.

This was around 1.5 years ago and later on I only showed interest here. So there's in reality not much difference

If you get your stuff together, really sit and take coaching you could be a great asset, to anyone who gives you a chance. MY only concern from you, is your attitude. Sometimes we need to learn how to manage how to overtake strong emotions, in game and in life, learn when to lower your head and when to speak up. That will make you successful.

Thats my advice to you, I hope you follow it. Trainee, don't disappoint.

Using an old-fashioned, basic nickname, without any concrete meaning at all, in an exchange for a vote of confidence?

Well, I don't see why not. But I'd rather be your slave.

Thank you man, looking forward to meet you ingame like the old times.

Why should I give you a chance? Some of our members still have trust issues with you, not to mention your disloyalty to the clan and crap past, how do we make sure that doesn't happen once again? Since this isn't your first time in such a situation.

Hi Trex. It's good to see you around.

- How do we make sure it doesn't happen again?

Well, there is no way or possibility to be completely sure that it will not happen again - even if I tell you a hundred times, and promise that I'm never gonna make shit again, the future is unknown to me so I'd be lying as well (I am not saying that I will do a shitstorm again, in fact I won't, that's why I am applying, but rather I say that words are useless in this case).

What I can do to provide a trustable background then, is highlighting two things, for you to detect the differences and my improvement: 1. That there was a special period in my life for reflexion, development and betterment after all what happened (I took 1 year away to work on this, now 2). 2. That I am currently doing (and have been doing for the past two years) actions that have nothing to do with that old shit mess I was. This is something that has been noticed by plenty of VUs. It's something that can give you a little more confidence to vote and trust me.

Why should I support you?

After a series of unfortunate events, particularly one that teached me how shit I was, I have tried to reach that faith ever since I started to put interest in this game again; but without words, actions instead. I have kept my activity in this forum and in-game as well, in some periods of the year (I work in abril-may-june and november-december) I can't join everyday but I do every week to maintain this objective of mine, and I'm playing now everyday with VC-MP friends and VUs. In this forum, I try to discourage raging discussions, iliterate messes around and rather I am always thinking on something intelligent to post or to start up a debate. In-game, I enjoy to help newbies a lot; I have fun enjoying events, I regularly congratulate newbies for their good achievements so they can feel better and more sure about their skills. I also enjoy every time a VU is online and the feeling is likewise.

That is also what I want to do in VU; I believe that I can contribute to this clan meaningfully now that I am aware of my weaknesses and goods, as some VUs pointed out. I cannot change the past, but as TheKing said once, I strive to make a better future. I think you should give me a chance because I am going to keep putting effort, and I want to do it for the betterment of VU.

Regarding to the people that still don't like me, I guess it's normal in a 100 people place. Not everyone will like or trust me at the start, and that's mostly happened with a lot of applications around; but what I can assure and this is something I have to do with words; no matter how much a guy can dislike me, I want to be part of this family and feel like a family, and so I will defend you in any trouble, I will help you as much as I can and I will offer my unconditional support for any of you guys.

That's all I have to say for now;

I would like to thank everyone so far for wishing me good luck and voting.

Hey Calhoun, it's good to see you applying here once again. Although your previous application didn't go as well as you would've hoped, I'm glad to see that it didn't deter you from improving yourself and trying again now. I've been regularly DMing with you on EAD, MK's CTF and KotH, and from what I've seen, your skills aren't even in question. You've been good to me long before I even joined VU, which shows me that your kindness comes from a good place, and not just to appease us.

It's a strong Trainee from me. Best of luck with the rest of your votes! ^-^

Quote
Although I still stand behind everything that I've said, it has recently been brought to my attention that a few of my clanmates have still not forgotten what happened in the past with you leaking private VU clan information. Although some of them may have forgiven you, not all of them are ready to consider you family yet.

I always have and always will prioritize VU's constitution and ethos, and put our clan's unity before anything else, and hence I'll be changing my vote to no for now. I hope you can understand that.

I would advise you to spend some time on making amends with our members, and once their views on you have been mended, I would still love to add you to our roster one day in the future.

As for my own take on this application, I initially remained neutral to see how those who had previously voted no for you felt now and to see them confirm that the clan unity won't be disrupted by your acceptance assures me to vote for Trainee. I hope an additional positive vote will also help cement your vote ratio. Best of luck with the rest of your application. ^-^

Welcome back to the family, [VU_T]Vedder.

Final poll count:

Trainee - 21
Neutral - 3
No - 12

Please bear in mind that you have some work to do here - not everyone trusts you, and it took quite some discussion before we were able to come to a decision. If you want to succeed in VU, you have some members' trust to gain.

Despite that, the clan is ready to welcome you with open arms, and fight alongside you as brothers.

Please take a read of this (https://viceunderdogs.com/index.php?topic=3702.0) and  this.
