What is your motivation to apply for reporter?:
Throughout my year on SRP, I’ve tried numerous attempts to hopefully get myself involved in another faction but that never works in my favour for two key factors. A; Detail and B; Reputation. Gangrp is known as one of the most toxic communities which has led to myself getting denied from a faction in the past from that reputation. I would like to take this as a chance to re-do my current reputation and stand out amongst the community. I’m aware of my reputation and I’ve been trying to change that and become involved with a faction through becoming part of the faction. I want to affiliate myself with others I also don’t know, sharing common interests and creating new bonds with others.
Do you have any experience with writing? What is your relationship with writing?:
In the past when I was younger I wrote a sci-fi flip-book. It was horrible, not the best of my work at all. But I’ve written multiple applications that have intrigued and made me write a depth to my character’s backstory which I’ve tried to work hard on starting recently. For important characters I try my best to craft a delicate backstory for them or develop and write well. My relationship with writing is de-motivating at times, wanting to write something then not the next second. It’s a hazard at times.
Are you aware of - and will follow - the set of rules provided to you?:
I am aware of the rules provided and I will follow them.
Why should we accept you over others?:
The reasoning as to why I believe I should be accepted over others is;
The Year Long Arc
Throughout my year on SRP, I’ve been mainly involved in gang-roleplay and crime-roleplay but not focusing on detail. I’ve taken multiple breaks from gang-roleplay lasting up to a month or two, but I always seem to come back because it gets boring some may say, but I’ve managed to overcome that. I’ve been wanting to get involved with a faction for a bit, joining a few families to better my reputation and trying to roleplay with a few factions on a new character here and there. I wish to be involved with the reporter faction to have fun and purposely change my reputation for the better of my SRP arc. I’d like to purposely bring my year long arc to end and begin my arc as someone in a faction. Something that I’ve been wishing to do for over a year, my dedication to the faction would be immeasurable.
Do you understand you have to stay completely neutral with all reports? (Your report can't have any OOC or IC bias towards a specific group.)
Yes I understand.
Do you trust that you will be able to stay active and complete the monthly quota?:
I do trust that I will be able to complete quota.
Summarise what you imagine work as a reporter is:
A reporter’s work will focus on a topic, something intriguing. Examples of this are; ‘CHAOS IN THE COURTROOM’ Where a reporter has taken several pictures of a traumatic or interesting scene, then interviewed important figures that have acted bravely in a scene that many may not have chosen to step into and acted in. Once a scene like such has happened, a reporter will begin going to important figures to gather details and information to represent in their report. Reporter’s work revolves around recording devices and random or important topics. Whenever an important or interesting topic happens, a reporter will most likely make their way to the scene. Once there, they’ll begin to ask questions that will lead to interviews. Interviews lead to pictures and all of that information gets scrambled into a published report by the one who was mainly focusing on that report.

What are you interested in writing about? How will you achieve this, and would you consider going out of your comfort zone?:
“I’m interested in writing about topics that contain education about students, and the structure’s that reside in this town such as skysc****rs or the building site. I’ll plan to achieve this through asking around people mainly in charge of these certain aspects, then setting up an interview or two with some wonderful prepared questions where I’ll stay in my comfort zone. It’s called a comfort zone for a reason.”

PROMPTS:
You will have to write two reports about a topic of your choice. Here we can see how pronounced your writing is and how creative you are. Use your own formatting and your own report idea. (If you're found plagiarizing an actual report or another applicant, you will be denied.)
#1 - General report. Report about a topic, informing players about an event or significant issues to Karakura.
#2 - Interview. It's important to have well-rounded questions. Create your own interview with ten questions or more. And answer them yourself.
[Santos] “Well, good evening everyone. Following up on our most recent prompt with the Construction of Karakura I’d like to bring to you a special guest that we were lucky enough to have stepped on and welcome themself. Please meet, Architect!”
[Architect] “Good evening, friends and families. After the recent prompt I’d like to speak to you all about issue’s myself and other Architect’s have been facing, and what Karakura is trying to do with our strike.”
[Santos] “Wonderful introduction, now, let’s begin. Please, tell us about yourself and what got you interested in becoming an Architect in the first place.”
[Architect]“My name is
or, Architect. I’m currently 37 and I’ve been visiting Karakura for a bit, maybe to do some sight seeing or some yoga but it sadly appears Karakura doesn’t.. Teach yoga at all. Now, I became interested in becoming an Architect one day. I was in class when one of my teachers brought up their previous affiliations, it sounded interesting to me when I was younger.”[Santos] “Sightseeing? Some of the views sure are beautiful, but you said it sounded interesting to you when you were younger, does that mean you’ve changed your opinions on the affiliation now?”
[Architect] “No, not at all. It’s just mostly tiring to do this sort of thing for money, long days and late night’s. I would prefer having a different job, maybe a truck driver.”
[Santos] “Moving on from that, how about you tell our viewers more about the ‘Spirit’s Tomb’. We’d love to hear more about that!”
[Architect] “Of course, no worries. The ‘Spriti’s Tomb’ is a name we decided on for the place because of the abnormal spirit activity. We’d bring it up to our supervisors but they’d brush it off as ‘Just Noise’.”
[Santos] “Did you or your team ever take any action? Maybe go behind your supervisors back and ask a priest or maiden? Or was your first choice to just go on strike and see what happens?”
[Architect] “We just thought about going on strike, the place creeped us all out and we didn’t want to stay there that much. Our first option was a group strike, we set out posters but they were washed away by the rain into the sewage.”
[Santos]“And what were your intentions with this ‘Strike’ of yours?”
[Architect] “Our intentions were for them to recognize us that we weren’t going to budge and that we wanted better pay and less hours for our hard work, but they ended up trying to hire other architects to map out the place and where to put things.”
[Santos] “How did that plan go for them? Well, or do you not keep in loop of what happens at your construction company after a strike?”
[Architect] “They recognized us but didn’t choose to do anything, they focused on more important and demanding parts of different cities which paid better and more.”
[Santos] “That’s disappointing to hear, but do you perhaps have any idea if you could confirm the rumours of a college student dying at the construction site? That’s something that surely got my interest!”
[Architect] “I don’t know if a college student was murdered at all, I just live in a beach house and enjoy the view now. But the rumour’s might be true because in one event something abnormal happened. Normally it was just whispers but this day, it spoke a word. ‘Begone’.”
[Santos] “Well, thank you for that. It seems our time is over and we should wrap up the interview, thank you for coming on. Good evening, Karakura.”
