Just not receiving a pm doesn't confirm or deny anything from the applicant's point of view, unless the 24 hours already passed. People probably don't want to wait 24 hours not knowing if they should apply to another group or not. Also this gives us no idea what responses are being considered good. There's barely even information about the village. For all I know this could be a bandit group and I was denied for answering "no" to having Theft and Rage.

Your Timezone: Central time zone UTC -6:00

Have you played Haven & Hearth 1 before?: Yes, briefly
Have you played Salem before?: Briefly
Do you have the rage skill?: No
Will you be a paying subscriber when your free time is up?: Probably yes
How many hours do you think you will be able to play each week?:
Do you have the thievery skill?: No
What is your preferred "role" if you had to pick one? (Miner, hunter, farmer, carpenter, traveling trader, carpenter, terraformer, tailor, fisherman, chef, blacksmith, PVP Guard, forager, etc): Hunter/forager would be great. I would be anything though.
Do you have a microphone?: No, but I am working on getting one.
Are you willing to use a voice chat program?(Teamspeak): yes
How well would you say that you get along with others?: I get along great
Do you have the murder skill?: no
How well can you remember & follow commands, instructions & directions given to you?: I'm probably one of the most competent and reliable people you can find.
Which game client are you using?(Default, Enders, Amber etc): Default, I didn't see much of a difference in the clients yet, but I will browse them later.
Do you already know any of our members or alliance members, either online or in real life?: no
Were you previously/are you still part of any groups in Haven & Hearth 2? If so what are the names of the groups & villages?: No
When did you start playing Haven & Hearth 2?: Launch
Have you previously applied to join our group or have you been in our group previously?: No

Someone is near our camp and says they are either an alliance member or friend of a group member (In this instance it's possible that they really are) and they want to come inside the camp or ask to join your party, would you let them in the camp or let them join your party?: Sounds like a good way to ruin my game, no thanks.

You stumble into one of our own main camps or alliance's camps, would you take or destroy things without asking even if you haven't been given any instructions on what you are allowed to take, touch or do yet?: Destroy things? that is just dumb. It makes more sense to just start your own productions rather than leach.

There's an odd rock nearby, but you don't know what else it could be used for, but you do know it still works as stone, and you really need some for what you are building, would you still use it without asking what else it could be used for first?: I would probably ask in chat what is the point of the rock, then check to see how much I can chip stones off it, and once its at its bare minimum I would leave it alone so someone can runestone it.

There's a farming seed you haven't discovered yet on the drying rack in our camp, you don't know who put it there or if they still need to discover it, would you still take it without asking so you can discover it and get the LP as well?: It common courtesy to ask.

You've witnessed another member purposely destroying and griefing parts of our camp when no one else but you is looking, sometimes they are even stealing things from other members just to make them mad without them knowing, what do you do?: Obviously out him and stop him if I can.

You are asked to hunt an aggressive animal by some other group members that you aren't really sure if you could handle, as you've never even fought a rabbit yet, would you still try and take on this aggressive animal, without explaining this to the others who've asked you to hunt it & without asking them for help or advice?: Ask for advice. I rather know how to do things before I do them. I learn fast anyways.

You need boards to finish something you are working on, there's only 3 trees left within a six minute walk of our camp, would you cut them down or walk further?: If it got to that point I would just plant trees. Like the group is consuming enough to deforest, at that point the smart thing to do would help feed the group, and that would help the most in a broad way.

There's a farming seed on the drying frame that you have permission to take, but you know another group member probably hasn't discovered this seed yet, what do you do?: 50lp isn't worth the beef. small token gestures like this help make a tight knit community.

You are accepted as a member of the group & on the way to the camp, you've been mapping the area and you notice some people on the forum are looking for help making a world map, would you share the map you've been making or your location?: Sounds like a good way to ruin my game, no thanks.

You are in a PVP situation where you did nothing wrong, but you are under attack by another player or group, would you prefer to fight or run?: Depends if I can win or not.

Your group knows you are an expert hunter, you've traveled a long way to get to our camp for the first time, you haven't built anything yet, not even a hearthfire, and as soon as you've first made it to the camp before you can do anything else, some group members ask you to come hunt for them, what do you do?: Build a hearthfire so I can port back home after lifting a kill.

You didn't join a voice chat with the group yet, but you really have something urgent to tell me, but you see me(the group leader) standing there, not doing anything, I haven't responded to you in the game for up to a half hour or more, do you assume I'm busy with private messages & the forum or that I'm wasting time?: I'm sure there would be someone on who knows you as well. I would ask them where you are and if they could tell you for me, or to get your attention.

All members have been given a certain task, you see everyone doing what they need to do except for 2 other group members, one of them is standing there doing nothing, the other is running in circles or zig zag patterns, this has been going on for a half hour or even longer, neither of them have told anyone they had to step away from the game for a moment, what do you do?: I would wonder why they are in this group if they are that incompetent.

Optional Application Part 2; Scenarios Section:
Someone is near our camp and says they are either an alliance member or friend of a group member (In this instance it's possible that they really are) and they want to come inside the camp or ask to join your party, would you let them in the camp or let them join your party?:
I won't let them in. The best I can do to help them is contact a higher ranking villager for them.

You stumble into one of our own main camps or alliance's camps, would you take or destroy things without asking even if you haven't been given any instructions on what you are allowed to take, touch or do yet?:
No

There's an odd rock nearby, but you don't know what else it could be used for, but you do know it still works as stone, and you really need some for what you are building, would you still use it without asking what else it could be used for first?:
No

There's a farming seed you haven't discovered yet on the drying rack in our camp, you don't know who put it there or if they still need to discover it, would you still take it without asking so you can discover it and get the LP as well?:
No

You've witnessed another member purposely destroying and griefing parts of our camp when no one else but you is looking, sometimes they are even stealing things from other members just to make them mad without them knowing, what do you do?:
I'll report them to the higher ranking members.

You are asked to hunt an aggressive animal by some other group members that you aren't really sure if you could handle, as you've never even fought a rabbit yet, would you still try and take on this aggressive animal, without explaining this to the others who've asked you to hunt it & without asking them for help or advice?:
No. My character life is worth more than a bear. If they want, I can help them with a bow, from a safe position, or help them try to build a fence or something to cage the animal, but that's it. I won't hunt an animal if I know I can't handle it.

You need boards to finish something you are working on, there's only 3 trees left within a six minute walk of our camp, would you cut them down or walk further?:
Probably I would ask if we have boards stacked somewhere, or if there is a carpenter online (to get higher Q). If we don't, I would walk further. Those trees are probably there for branches and stuff.

There's a farming seed on the drying frame that you have permission to take, but you know another group member probably hasn't discovered this seed yet, what do you do?:
If I haven't discovered it, and I have permission, I take it. If I have discovered it, and since farming is probably not my job, I will leave it there and let the player know he can take it.

You are accepted as a member of the group & on the way to the camp, you've been mapping the area and you notice some people on the forum are looking for help making a world map, would you share the map you've been making or your location?:
No. I'm assuming if we live that far, it's because we don't want to be easily reached by anyone.

You are in a PVP situation where you did nothing wrong, but you are under attack by another player or group, would you prefer to fight or run?:
If it's a 1v1 situation, it really depends on my skills. If I'm sure I can run away, I probably will. If they are a group and I'm alone, running is all I can try..

Your group knows you are an expert hunter, you've traveled a long way to get to our camp for the first time, you haven't built anything yet, not even a hearthfire, and as soon as you've first made it to the camp before you can do anything else, some group members ask you to come hunt for them, what do you do?:
"Sorry guys, but I just got here. First I need some equip, and a HF at least."

You didn't join a voice chat with the group yet, but you really have something urgent to tell me, but you see me(the group leader) standing there, not doing anything, I haven't responded to you in the game for up to a half hour or more, do you assume I'm busy with private messages & the forum or that I'm wasting time?:
Given the fact game time is a resource now, and that standing there AFK in Haven is never a good idea, I'm assuming you are busy. If it's urgent, I'll either join the TS channel, or find another high ranking member to inform them of the situation.

All members have been given a certain task, you see everyone doing what they need to do except for 2 other group members, one of them is standing there doing nothing, the other is running in circles or zig zag patterns, this has been going on for a half hour or even longer, neither of them have told anyone they had to step away from the game for a moment, what do you do?:
Try to talk to the running guy first, to understand his reasons, then report them to a high ranking member.
