Donkey Kong's UE Application [DENIED]

[Donkey Kong]

Status: Complete
Guides: 6/5​

Paragraph:
Hello, my name is Sean and I am applying for the UE team for many reasons. The first reason is because I love helping other members, and I think I can teach Sythe members a lot of valuable information. Me sharing my knowledge of Xbox, sports, and the computer can greatly affect Sythe in a positive way. I have made my guides following all the guidelines, and accepting advice from all members. I believe the Sythe community will benefit from my guides because I have made all of them clear by using good grammar, and interesting subjects.

Guides​

How to Access and Save Window's Live Messenger Conversations
The Basics of Snow Skiing
How to get Free Xbox Live
How to get Free Microsoft Points
How to successfully backup your Computer (Windows XP)
How to Detect and Delete a virus using safe mode​

Those are my six guides that I written so far; I am currently working on one other guide, and will be finishing soon.

Thank you.

I vote yes. Your guides have a nice format with good pictures. Your guides where written with experience, and you seem like a decent person.

Your "How to get Free Xbox Live" guide is awesome good luck

 

[Donkey Kong]

Added new guide. How to detect and delete a virus using safe mode.

I am currently working on another one and should be posting soon.

 

[Dark Devil]

All your guides are well written with pictures. I liked a few of them except The Basics of Snow Skiing since I don't go skiing never tried it but its still a good guide.

How to Detect and Delete a virus using safe mode:

Now this guide helped me a lot since I recently got a virus from a wallpaper and now I don't have to spend money on a new computer.

So I vote YES!

1. Your guide on 'How to Access and Save Window's Live Messenger Conversations', is widely used. It's been posted many times on Sythe, and basically everyone knows it now. The guide is good, but it's used too frequently.

2.Your basic skiing guide needs more information, like; always skii with a person, to avoid getting lost, and how to basics of doing actual skiing movements. Also, this part of your skiing guide:

When skiing always try to stay in control. Do not race with other people as you are learning. Also, try to mantain a speed that you and the people skiing next to you are comfortable with.

Be aware of obstacles, and other skiers. Pay attention and try to keep a good distance between you and them.

Always know your abilities. Know how good your skiing skills are, and do not put them to the test. Only to Jumps or moguls if you are postive you can complete them.

seems to be ripped from: http://www.diabetic-lifestyle.com/articles/oct01_burni_1.htm

Always stay in control, and be able to stop or avoid other people or objects.
People ahead of you have the right of way. It is your responsibility to avoid them.
If you must stop, be sure you are not obstructing the trail or where you are not visible from above.
Whenever starting downhill or merging into a trail, look uphill and yield to others.
Always use devices to help prevent runaway equipment.
Observe all posted signs and warnings. Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas.
Prior to using a lift, you must have the knowledge and ability to load, ride and unload safely.

It's similar, and basically in order of it!


3. The free xbox 1month trial is given to you once you get the xbox. Good guide though!

4. Free microsoft points is another common guide. Still good.

5. I enjoyed reading your guide, but color would be good.

6. Eh, another common guide, and you didn't use color.

- My vote is still pending until I get your guide 2 straight.

Ok BootyLove I will edit my Skiing guide adding more detail. I will also edit it that part of the guide even though I didn't rip it from that site. Does seem to be in the same order and have some of the same ideas, so it does look suspicious.

Also sorry if some of my guides are frequently posted on Sythe, I had no idea. I will be adding more color to all my guides, hopefully making them easier to read and understand.

To be honest, (3-4) of the guide you made were not useful to me. And i know choosing a topic can be hard. But please try harder. The last 2 guides I enjoyed because they are something that is worth reading.

So if you can maybe add 1-2 new guides, My vote could change..
But as of now it is a No

I understand that you might not like guides 3-4 because you do not have Xbox 360. To be honest many people have posted saying that those guides have helped them.

I have completed a new guide that maybe will end up changing your vote, but it is also involving the Xbox so I don't know you would like it. I make Xbox guides because I have a lot of knowledge of the Xbox because I play a lot of online multiplayer games and I am trying to give some information back to the community. Also, just because the guides were not useful to you, does not mean they weren't for other Sythe members.

I understand that I need to write more guides not involving the Xbox and I think if I get accept I will have that opportunity.
I will be adding my new guide soon, and I really hope you enjoy it.

You didn't reply to you possibly ripping a guide. What's your defense?

 

[Donkey Kong]

About me ripping the guide, if you make a sports guide there obviously going to be other guides out there that are like it and include the same thoughts as you. Mostly because they have learned the same way as you, so therefore the two guides will be somewhat similar. Another reason is because when making a sport guides you are using the fundamentals and because I was just doing the basics there is a limited about of things that I can say without making the guide to complex.

The big reason why you believed I ripped that guide is because it is in same order. I feel that was just a coincidence. You can see, throughout the rest of the two guides we share different ideas and thoughts.

It just so happened that we had the same opinion on a topic, without me knowing that guide was even ever made.

 

[Macroman]

Donkey Kong, your application will be re-voted upon because we have changed to a Poll style voting system. There won't be anymore Yes's or No's.

 

[BootyLove]

They're in the same order, but you have reworded it. That's not a coincedence.

 

[Donkey Kong]

They're in the same order, but you have reworded it. That's not a coincedence.

Ok well if you read them both closely, they don't even look that alike.

We share different ideas, and I think it is unfair that you are accusing me of ripping this guide when they aren't even that similar.

 

[Macroman]

Denied - Ask BootyLove why.

 

[BootyLove]

Sorry, your application is back to pending. Macroman and I had a misunderstanding. I gave him a screenshot of something; regarding you ripping a guide. Then, I had discovered R33l's guides use sources, which is cheating - no doubt.
