What is your motivation to apply for reporter?
I’ve always enjoyed writing, it’s been something I constantly put my off-time into doing. It has even helped better my DetailRP, allowing me to better my writing skills, and SRP has truly allowed me to show my talent, and my skill, in writing, And I realized as of recently That reporter, would do that, but make me get constantly better at it, Gaining the constructive criticism, and being able to work towards bettering yoru writing, and cooperation, all in one, That is what peques my interests most about News Station.
Do you have any experience with writing? What is your relationship with writing?:
I have a lot of experience in writing! I’ve written a short story that MANY people have suggested that I get published! They’ve inspired me to keep writing when i wasn't so sure of myself, and wanted to give up on my writing, but I’ve kept on. For the people who believed in me!
Are you aware of - and will follow - the set of rules provided to you?:
I am aware of the set of rules, and I am fully willing to follow them!
Why should we accept you over others?:

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.)

Summarise what you imagine work as a reporter is:

Broadcasts can be a Silly little announcement, or a Song of the day! A scoop on a new shop? - Some news on a Friend! Maybe a new television show! Where reports are more focused on either a certain event, or a Specific topic within Karakura, these could be, for example, the gothic ball, the Pop-Up concert at the beach! The giant Bouncy Castle! Or Foods and their health benefits!

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 in Karakura.
#2 - Interview. It's important to have well-rounded questions. Create your interview with ten questions or more. And answer them yourself.
1: On a scale from 1-10, How good was the Gothic Ball
Exultian: “I’d have to say it was a solid 7.5, on that scale, not bad, but also not the best.”
2: How close to the event did you get your outfit?
Exultian: “I finally got a grasp on my outfit, the day before the ball. It was quite a close call.”
3: Did you participate in the performances?
Exultian: “Yes, I was on stage with one of the group performances. It was quite a joy. Got to show the world what my friends and I could do.”

6: What’s your opinion on the Hype of the ball?
Exultian: “If I had to give my honest opinion on the hype, I would say it was overbearing. That amount of hype, over an event we had no clue what would come of, is just over-pressing.”
7: What did you think about the theme?
Exultian: “I think that it was a theme just allowing the emos to express themselves, in which I fully support, but they shouldn't need a day to do that. They shouldn't be afraid to express themselves at any time, it’s who they are, they shouldn't be ashamed of that.”
8: Do you think that the Gothic ball was kind of like Halloween?
Exultian, “I think that Halloween shouldn't be associated with the word ‘Gothic’. Halloween is where you can dress up, and escape reality for a short while, Gothic is a style.”
9: Do you think that the way they chose who could perform was valid?
Exultian: “Valid? Yes, I do believe that it was Valid. It doesn't matter how it’s done, it’ll always be valid if it works, Morally right, on the other hand, that I also think it was, but that is what can be different even if it ‘Works’.”
10: The word ‘Ball’, what does it mean to you?
Exultian: “The word ‘Goth’ Is a strong word, but it mostly resembles a style, not anything less, and to some people, it means more than that, but to me personally, the word ‘goth’ just represents a certain style.”

Some extra on Mark Papp!!
Mark Pàpp’s -Radio Interview
‘Hello! I am Mark Pàpp, I've inhabited this earthly plane for 26 years, and it’s a wonderful place - What a pity it's been to not inhabit any professional field in my 26 years, hell - Not even a gas station. But here I lay, finally applying to a place of professionalism, a place I have envied yet. It has always been my dream to write for a news station, and this is where It may come to truth’s plane. Karakura news has been the field I've envied most of all - bringing into thought that I may write for them, and better my own word, along with presenting the bitterness of unbiased news to the city’s consumers. Bringing facts to the world. I feel it due time i go out and do what i’ve wished to for so long, let alone doing it for a living would excel my dopamine levels to a max - Being able to broadcast what I love to do, and doing so to make myself a living, Oh - but the joy that comes with that excitement, is bittersweet, for it means im expected to do my best work, in which i always try to keep that capacity regardless, But it means that many o’ people will read my article. And judge me so, which I worry for - but in due time I will get over that bitter fact.’ - Mark Pàpp Radio Interview on why he’s applying. Dated, June 3rd, 2025. - The cassette remained playing slightly as a small murmur from the background could be heard slightly - “what-” - The cassette cut off.
Mark Pàpp, Who is he?
Mark Pàpp is a creation of mine - Created when I decided to apply for reporter, Then became what seems alien to this culture, Speaking oddly and all. He’s not a fantasy alien, but not used to the true way’s of human speech, To say it in a way. He has warmed my heart - Even just by writing that application, I found him an amazement of my mind - and hope to keep him as a strong character, even if I leave reporter. He’s a joy to write as - and I'm sure he’ll be a joy to play - Nothing will part my mind from his favor. - a man living in a modern day - Never seen holding a smartphone, And still carried cassettes of his interviews, and of news ideas. He seemed - out of his own time - like he was there in all modernity - but his nature - and behaviour was one of the past - an alien to today's whims. - but kind hearted, and very caring when it truly matters. He acts like he’s from the past himself - born in the wrong century - perhaps? But he’s very perceptive of what’s going on around him - and of the popular people around - He may seem out of his century - But he knows this century well.
Màrk Papp - PHD - Speech!
Màrk Papp - finally gaining his PHD after multiple years of college - redoing a year or two - “This is a great honor to be achieving, a grand degree of knowledge proved by a paper - A title earned by academics.” - “This being presented to me isn't a right - nor a privilege - It’s an earned academic achievement - brought to those who seek the highest level of education - and stick with it - strong - and mighty.” - “Gaining your PHD earns you titles Doctor and Professor - but you don't NEED a PHD to be a Professor.” - “I took my PHD in Criminal Justice - With also taking a Masters within Literary ****ysis - I went after my PHD - And masters at the same time” - “writing is a great passion of mine - As to why I'd like to be a reporter - But eventually - One day.. I want to put my PHD of criminal justice - To work - perhaps in the form of Police Officer - or maybe taking it to court” - “Watching police departments prosper was always a joy - Watching how they work through things - And handle criminals and certain scenarios - Really inspired me - made me want to know what they did - Even further - Which is why here today, I am receiving my PHD in Criminal Justice” - “The writing piece to my academic achievements - It betters me towards bettering my writing skills, and being able to write for a crowd - And qualifies me to do what I thought a dream career, Reporter - Journalism and Reporting. The two things I found the most joy in doing in my college career-”
Màrk Papp On Conflict
“Conflict - It’s a word used to describe what humans call bittering - Or pestering - Arguing over something big or small, All conflict is meant to be handled in it’s own way - Say there’s a conflict that leads to the throwing of hands - Or the drawing of a weapon, That would have to be handled differently than just a verbal argument -” -
“If fist were thrown - it’s best to either try to get into the middle of the storm and attempt to stop it - Or call the authorities and allow them - To handle it.” - “Like - If anyone were throwing hands due to a conflict - I Would try my best to intervene - even willing to get hit in the crossfire - If it means saving another - Then i’d do it -” - “Now If it were just a verbal argument - I’d ask them to tone it down - Or take it into a private area - and if it escalated - I’d ask they halt the argument”
