• What rank are you currently and approximately how long have you had that rank?

I am artist and I have held -with some inactivity interruptions- that rank for more than two years.

• How experienced are you in FAWE?

I practiced the advanced brushes and functions this weekend, but I have a lot of experience with the basics of WE on some private servers. (Never thought I would put this in an app), but I also have quite a bit of experience with WE while leading Thorin's Halls on AC.

• Will you need instruction in using WE once you acquire the badge?

No.

• Why do you need this badge?

I currently have my treebuild project, where I often have to ask designers or FAWE badgers to move things around, or expand the grid. Furthermore I often adjust trees by hand, like changing the height, which can be done lazier with WE.
Lastly, the trees will need to be saved one day. You need World Edit and an additional plugin to save the trees in Bo3, which is a necessary format for WorldPainter or WorldMachine.

I recently picked up terraforming and an interest in geology in general, as you might have noticed by the mountain spam in discord. By now, FAWE offers a large amount of brushes for terraforming, almost as many as Voxel offers. I am very interested in trying terraforming.

Even more so, I spent my holiday time reading books and articles about nature, and I'm very excited to put the things I learned into minecraft, with the help of World Edit. It's also good to see how my trees would look on minecraft terrain, whether they're too small or too large, or if they have too much foliage etc etc.

In the portfolio you can see a Mordorian tower I built in about 3-4 hours, which is quite fast for me. I used many types of FAWE features, by hand it would have taken at least five times longer. I hope I can also do more structures with FAWE, for the upcoming Mordor project.

I applied for the unrestricted badge instead of restricted, because the restricted badge does not include the brushes that I would like to use for terraforming. I am well aware of the dangers of too large operations; on my private servers I had to be even more careful than on MCME.

• What to you is a responsible and mature player?

Someone who uses his rank to work on projects, not for status. To me, a responsible player takes his rank seriously, and a mature player acts like an example for the server.
