WIP
 
== Motivation ==
In the past more and more players approached us and asked for a place where they could be truly creative. We also understand that on the public hives the roleplay suffers from time to time.
 
''So we wanted you to provide a place where roleplay is number one priority.''
 
=== What does that mean? ===
'''Firstly, no out of character references!''' Adherence to the Roleplay Rule is especially important when connected to the Whitelist Server. <u>Every</u> interaction you have should be strictly in Roleplay.
 
'''Secondly, really value your life.''' Your life is the most valuable thing you own, fear losing it and don't waste it for no reason.
 
'''Lastly, Get Creative'''! We encourage all players to get involved as unique and interesting characters that'll create involved and rememberable experiences for your fellow islanders.
 
 
 
Due to the extra emphasis on player conduct, we would ask all who are interesting in participating to become intimately familiar with our In-Game Rules.
 
''[[Rules|The Rules for ELAN's Game Servers can be found here]].''
 
== Applying for Whitelist ==
In order to ensure there is a certain standard of player on the Whitelisted [[How-to-join|Server]], certain criteria must be met before being allowed to apply:
 
=== Minimum Requirements for Application ===
 
# You must not have been banned in the past 4 weeks.
# You must have a [[Discord verification|verified Discord Account]].
# You must have a proper Roleplay name. This must consist out of a First and Last name.
# Have at least 50-hours played on our Public Servers.
 
'''*Players who's in-game reputation is too low will also be unable to apply for the whitelist.'''
 
=== Approval Process ===
 
# Member of Management Team reviews application and cross-references it against the players profile.
# If all requirements are met and application (role-play exam) is satisfactory, then a 21 day trial VISA is issued.
# After 21 day trial VISA is over, the player has 2 weeks from the trial end date to apply for Permanent VISA (NB: Open whitelist ticket and request VISA review).
## If player waits longer than 2 weeks, process starts from the beginning.
 
=== Most Common Application Rejection Reasons ===
Here are list of the common reasons that applications are rejected and the relevant cooldown periods associated with the rejection.

=== Removal of Whitelist ===
Once you have obtained a whitelist VISA, there are a few reasons in which it may be removed from you. You can find some of the main reasons below:
 
# '''Bad Roleplay'''
## No real attempt at roleplay (e.g. not providing enough time and story before attempting to use lethal force).
## OOC References (e.g. any use of out-of-character references such as game, admin, ban or player or helping others with controls etc, when caught will result in a whitelist removal)
# '''Rule Violations'''
## Any rule violation, regardless of which server the rule was broken on.
## Any ban/mute orders on your profile (wether from a rule violation or conduct in discord etc will result in a whitelist removal)
# '''Profile Assessment'''
## A profile with a reputation to low to justify decent conduct may have their whitelist removed.
# '''Special Circumstance'''
## In extremely rare cases, there may be special circumstance to which a player may have their access removed.
 
== How to apply ==
[[File:Ht wl 1.png|thumb|left|Create Whitelist-Request option under #commands on the ELAN Discord.]]
[[File:Ht wl 2.png|thumb|left|Failure to meet the pre-requisite requirements.]]
[[File:Ht wl 3.png|thumb|left|A Whitelist Request as been successfully opened.]]
 
=== Opening a Whitelist Request ===
As stated only verified Discord Accounts will be accepted for the Whitelisted Server.
 
Navigate to the #commands channel under the Support Category on our Discord and Press the "Create Whitelist-Request" Button. If you meet the requirements outlined above, a Whitelist Ticket will be generated where a member of the management team will contact you to begin the application process.
 
=== Roleplay Exam ===
As part of the onboarding process, we will require all potential applicants to write a detailed text about a character they wish to assume when playing on the Whitelist Server. This should be written in the first person (in-roleplay) and be detailed enough that we can ascertain how comfortable you are at providing a good roleplay experience.
 
As a general guidline describe your character in detail, roughly 150 words or more; what is it that really defines this character? What are his believes and so on? Spare no detail about who you are, your background and why you would like to immigrate to Everon.
 
'''*AI generated content is not accepted as a valid submission. We do require effort into your character development considering you are signing up for a more heavily focused role play experience. If you fail the Roleplay Exam, it cannot be retaken for a minimum of 7 days.'''
