General Introduction:

Be sure to read the entire post, this will explain most of the information that is required to know, so don't skim it, actually read it or you will regret it later on.

Welcome to The Empire Recruitment thread! The Empire is once again recruiting, looking for members that are hard working, active, and will a good member in the group. Members who were kicked or declined in the past recruitment are welcome to apply again. To elaborate on our other recruitment threads, we want to know more about you as a person. With that said, creating a video or voice application is HIGHLY recommended, but not required. Though it will most surely separate the members willing to go above the usual basic application format, and the ones who don't, so keep that in mind. Members can nominate applicants for further review for the group, but even so, if you'd like to be one of the members to make it into the group, be positive that your application is full of effort and thought.

We had a video/voice application thread, but many of those were extremely boring to listen to, so we are allowing text applications again. As a trick to catch members who do not actually read the whole thread, when you put your age in a text or graphic application, be sure to spell out the number, for example say eighteen instead of 18. If you choose to make a video or voice application make sure it can actually be heard and you speak English. However, you have a better chance of getting into the group with a voice, video, or custom application rather than a plain text application.

The last Recruitment Thread can be located here. This recruitment thread will end on Sunday, May 25, 2014.

Basic Guidelines:

• Around 60+ posts per month of the account's age
  
• Must have acceptable grammar
  
• Usually an upgraded member or a very committed non-upgraded member
  
• No LQP or Harassment Warnings
  
• No legitimate open or unresolved scam reports
  
• No trolling or flaming other members
  

Application:

Note: To elaborate on the general information, we want to know more about you, other than how "high quality" you are. Be sure to be truthful and honest in your application, this could make you or break your application. Remember, video and voice applications are highly recommended and those that create that type of application tend to have a higher chance at being accepted, but it is not necessarily required. The minimum time length for both are 3 minutes, you may do more but keep in mind quality is better than quantity.

Be sure to answer all the questions, regardless if you're also doing a video/voice application. You may reformat the layout of the questions however you like; you may use GFX.

Good luck to all that apply, this round of recruitment will only last for a short time.

Adam's Quick Tips:

I will repeat what Tibit and other Empire members have stated.
If you truly want into the Empire, prove it to us.
Show us that you DESERVE to be in the group.
I can promise you that you will appreciate the group if you are accepted.
Just some tips if you want your application to stand out:
Make your application unique.
Make it lengthy, but be sure for it to hold it's quality.
Use your personal skills to make the application: GFX, Gaming, Coding, etc. Show your specialty.
Be sure to use a set format, colors, themes, etc. Organized = good/ attention catching.
Show that you want in.
Again, the length can have something to do with the result of your conclusion, but ONLY if it holds quality from beginning to start.
Do a top 10 reasons why you want in, make a video application along with the required application.
Do far more than the required application asks for. Again, show us that you want to be a member of the Empire.

Thanks to Tizzy and Tom‌ for helping with formatting.

[Troye]

Make sure your application looks appealing and has proper grammar. We read hundreds of applications, which can become boring. Make sure your application stands out in your application for a better chance of being accepted. Adding graphics or a video to your application will increase your chances of being seen by a leader.

[Ventures]

Awesome to see The Empire recruiting. Hope to see some great members apply.

To prospective applicants, be sure to make yourself stand out to the reviewers.

Personally, I try to involve myself with market trends, happenings, and
stocks / corporate offices are becoming more and more of my interest as of lately.

back I took an interest in mens fashion and luxury lifestyles. This inspired
me to do research and became my main motivation to make money. If
someone where to ask me what my drove me to want to do things, my
only response would be money. This doesn't mean I am still not a people
person, I love people and interacting. Diversity makes life interesting.

I'm currently doing a class where you debate numerous topics of philosophy. Graphics, would be another skill of mine, Although I currently don't have any designs of what i've made due to the fact I get my computer wiped every 4 months or at school. I believe i'm quite decent at graphics, I wouldn't over rate myself because I'm not brilliant at it. I would rate myself maybe like a 5-6/10. I have quite a creative mind and love to write when I get in the moment I can go for quite some time, a creative mind helps me while i'm doing my graphics at home and at school. Gaming, I'm fairly decent at gaming, I currently have a PS3 and computer hopefully getting a desktop soon and a xbox one at the end of the year. If I got accepted into the group I would hope I could show of my skills of gaming to you guys. I love the genre FPS, racing, and action. Last but not least sport!

I'm active in all of the general topics, Although I don't have posts in all of topics i'm usually lurking around in all of them reading. I'm active in the general topics because it's all the basic stuff like the news, events, the lounge and stuff like that, it's all easy to read and help members out what i like to do.

Why do you want to join The Empire in particular?: I've heard a lot about The Empire as "the group to be in" I would love to join The Empire due to the fact that everyone in the group is nice and helps others, it's a nice chilled group, it's not revolved around black hatting topics from what I know, I believe I could learn more than I already know, and your sub forum is active from what I've heard.

Why do you personally feel you deserve to and should be accepted into The Empire?: I believe I should be accepted into The Empire because for one I've followed all the basic guidelines, especially the flaming and low quality posting, two I believe I'm a high quality member, and I've never scammed or done anything bad.

In one to three paragraphs, tell us a little bit about yourself personally or possibly something quite memorable that happened in your life, or an explanation of what makes you who you are and who are you: One incident in my life makes me what I am because when I was three my dad left mum and I, me now being fifteen and had to live the whole time without a father figure in my life has made me a lot helpful then what I believe I would of been because in my house now it's just my mum and I. Another incident in my life has made me a lot more helpful is when my mum had a car crash and caught a disease off it what makes your muscles really tight and hard to move so I've had to help out a lot around the house. I believe these two mishaps in my life have made me what I am. I also think this is a better me then I would of been.
As you sort of found out i'm pretty helpful, I have a good personalty, i'm open for jokes I love people with humor! I love to get out of the house and play football(AFL) I'm a pretty sporty kid I love sport and hope to have a job in the sport industry when i'm older. I'm a happy kid I like to joke around a fair bit and can take a joke myself.

Where do your priorities in life lie? What is most important to you? My number one priority in life is school and just to finish school and get a good job. But family is more important to me then school, family ,school, friends, and sport are the most important things in my life.

What caused you to stay active and be part of the community on Hackforums after first joining? Just the fact the I know staying here and posting in the general topics and making friends could and would expand my knowledge. I've also stayed active from the friends and fun i've had here.

The lounge with out a doubt, although the saying HF is my family sounds kind of repetitive, it kind of feels like it, I love reading the odd stories, and I love humor

In one to three paragraphs, tell us a little bit about yourself personally or possibly something quite memorable that happened in your life, or an explanation of what makes you who you are and who are you:

I am a 16 year old young adult male, who spends his life studying, hanging out with friends, and living the life. I don't feel the need to do drugs however, because I have a part time job at the hospital and McDonalds (odd mix), but I want the jobs for the work experience. I always wanted to be in the medical field to make people feel better, what catalyzed that idea was when my grandmother's life was taken away by a rare cancer, I visited her everyday for the 9 months after her diagnosis, taking care of her and feeding her, this was when i was 10 years old

Besides my career ambitions, I am very respectful to people's beliefs. I just wanted to say that because of how I told my religion, and how people might rant against me, I have no problem with your religion, in fact I love the diversity 😎
Where do your priorities in life lie? What is most important to you?
School is my #1 priority, I strive to get into the medical field and Become a Surgeon, I live really close to Stanford University, and have good relationships with people who have went there, we all seek the same interests, they are only 2 years older than me, but they have similar goals.
What caused you to stay active and be part of the community on Hackforums after first joining?
The life off the forum, if this forum was dead, it would be pointless to be here, even the extra LQ posters being some extra beef into this forum, I never joined this forum in search for Stress testing tools, but became fond of them as I started researching ways to defend against DDoS attacks. I do free Dstats for people who own their own stresser, though I have a thread charging for the dstats, I still give them out for free very often
