In order to play on LotC, you must be whitelisted. The whitelisting process, while seemingly daunting, is actually quite simple and we're here to help you every step of the way. You can apply on our forums. And fret not, for this page will help you with the process all the way through.

Application Stages

There are generally three stages of an application; putting up your application, pending, and acceptance or denial. If your application does well, then you may not even have to go through the pending stage, though this is more rare.

When first setting up your application you must be mindful of the criteria for the application and follow it to the best of your ability. Criteria are listed on the application page for ease of access, giving tips and directions for what your application can and cannot have.




Pending

Once you have put up your application, you will likely receive a message similar to the one shown in the thumbnail below. This means that, while your application wasn't particularly bad, there are several changes that might be made before you are accepted. Typically there are only a few flaws in pending applications, generally involving information or knowledge that one's character

wouldn't typically have (i.e. magics, deities), unrealistic occurrences in their biography, or incorrect definitions. Players are always given 24 hours to fix mistakes during this stage, before the application is ultimately denied. The changes that must occur will always be listed under the large pending title, and these must be filled out in order for your application to be accepted. Make sure to use the links that the Community Team member provides you with, as they can help you with information you may potentially need for your application. Joining the discord link as well is highly recommended, as it can allow you to communicate with already verified players for help as well. If you believe that a problem on your application is not a mistake, try to contact the Community Team Member who handled your application, as their discords are usually put on the pending messages for ease of access.

Most applications go through this stage and it is not uncommon for an application to be put on Pending multiple times if the Community Team Member deems it requiring such. It all depends on how well you follow the given directions and criteria. Like stated before, if you're unsure of something check the Wiki or ask a Community Team Member for assistance!


Accepted This is typically the last stage for most applications, occurring after they have made edits requested during the Pending Stage or their applications met all the server's requirements without needed to go through the Pending Stage.
