If it was from OCRP it might be. I always get so pissed at the lack of RP that I derp around there.

IC Character Name: Joshua Bradley

1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority and what lead your character to do so.
When the 7 hour war took place, my character wanted to fight. First, he saw the sheer power of the Universal Union forces, and was very afraid for his life. Next, he saw the brutality of the Universal Union as they killed all of the disabled and the young. Lastly, he saw the CCA. The CCA made him fearful, but he also respected them.
My character is a believer that the strongest man is the best man. In my character's mind, the Universal Union is the strongest, because of their sheer power and the CCA. Therefore my character thinks that they are the best to lead Earth and make decisions.
These factors lead my character to determine that he must join the Universal Union to survive and become strong. He also has started to believe Universal Union propaganda. He noticed the CCA applications and was instantly interested.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
Independent, mean, believes in the rulr of the strongest.

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?
I mainly want to get on the CCA to add some variety to my RP. As previously said by many, the Resistance is almost impossible to get into. The CCA sounds like a fun way to spice things up.
I also have heard some radio chatter and the organization amazes me. It would feel pretty cool to be a part of that huge machine, functioning flawlessly. I expect it to be both fun and appeal to my wargamer (tabletop gamer) side. I also want to teach some lolrebels, punchwhores, mingebags and propkillers a lesson or two.

4) Please provide a detailed back-story from an out-of-character perspective on your applying character. This section must be detailed and consist of a minimum of 300 words.
Origins
My character comes from a large crime family from Los Angeles, called the Leones. The parents were the main participants of the crime, but the children learned skills, and had their personalities shaped by this life. There were many children, Larry, Sarah, Rhianna, a few others (future characters) and this sibling, Joshua, and they all had different personalities.

The Seven Hour War
During the Seven Hour war, the family was attacked by Universal Union forces. Rockets and explosives bombarded the house, killing the parents and a few siblings. The attack and the loss of parents had different effects on the different young adults. For Sarah and Joshua, it struck fear. For Larry, it caused sadness and despair. For Rhianna, the oldest, it caused complete detachment from reality. They were then processed by the combine and assigned to cities.

The Siblings' Stories
When the siblings were split up and registered, they all changed names, since they had never had passports or any sort of ID. Rhianna Leone became Rhianna Frost. Larry Leone became Larry Jones. Sarah was the only one to keep her name. Joshua changed his name to Bradley. Rhianna was the first to die. She used to be a good daughter, in line to take care of the home. Her entire life was shattered when the combine came. She became a wreck, bunny hopping around, hugging CCA officers. She was beaten constantly and died one night from starvation and abuse. The next to go was Larry. He went wandering in the subways, looking for food. He was caught by the CCA and put in detainment. While in the Nexus detainment area he licked blood off the floor and knawed his pinky finger off. When the CCA officers found out they decided to play a game with him. They gave him laxatives. Then they put him on a box. He woke up and crapped himself, but only water came out, because he was so dehydrated. Then they told him to eat it. He was hallucinating, and ate it all up. Then they took him to the top of the Nexus, and he jumped off, thinking it was a slide. Both of these deaths contributed to Joshua's fear of the Universal Union. Sarah Leone also became a loyalist and received benefits, strengthening Joshua's belief that the Universal Union will reward loyalty.

Joshua's Life
Joshua has been having a normal citizen's life. He regularly eats rations, and reads Universal Union propaganda. He is not a complete loyalist, because he is too afraid to offend CCA officers by chatting with them. He has started to get fuzzy, and his focus is fading. He wants to join the CCA and become strong, not have to fear anything and help the Universal Union.

Then why bother wasting the money in the first place? And of people are fighting over apartments, then 1. There is a limit of one apartment per citizen; 2. If it is OOC, then just tell them that bitching about apartments in OOC is not allowed and 3. If the fighting is IC, then the combine will just detain and punish them for fighting.

Half-Life 2 Roleplay / Make Apartments Free!
« on: May 08, 2011, 08:31:37 PM »
Hello, this is more of a discussion thread than a suggestion, but you can move it if you like.
I think that apartments should be free.
Reasons:
1. In the canon, people are assigned to apartments, they don't pay for them.
2. When you disconnect, you lose your apartment. This causes you to lose all of your money from roleplaying correctly.
3. What about when people have no money? Then they cannot buy an apartment, causing the CCAs to get mad at them, but the CCAs should assign him an apartment in the canon.
And another lesser solution would be to make it so doors stay bought until someone else buys them. The doors owned by disconnected players would say "Disconnected" on them. You could buy those only if the apartment building was full.
Oh, and there would be a limit of one door, of course.

You should make a Breencast thread, where it has announcements for the citizens. Then people would be able to know major events that happened when they were not playing.

I don't see why the poll is necessary, shouldn't all of these measures be implemented somehow?

Excellent point, but not all can be used at the same time, there is a first choice, a second choice, a third choice and a last resort.
Harder Entry Quiz (There is already a quiz, just make it harder)
Stricter CP's (CPs can be stricter)
ULX Punishments (Kick/Ban Etc.) (You can do that fine without interfering with anything)
Some Sort of MOTD with Guidlines and Help. (This would just come up after the quiz)

There is quite a difference between minges and failrpers. You need to kick/ban the minges, and educate the failrpers.
