Just wanna throw my 2 cents in here..

I was denied - they said because "Due to lack of MC-Market reputation and lack of Minecraft related experience, we believe that this community would not share the same interests and vision as your current projects."

I explained that I did was not currently working on an MC related project, but had significant experience with MC related projects - including running a server network circa 2012-2016, moderating on MCF, being a bukkit/spigot developer, being one of the first 1000 members of Spigot. I also explained that, while I did not have any current MC related projects, I have an ownership interest in a hosting company and MSP, as well as a new venture that aims to solve chargebacks.

I thought I had a lot to share - but guess not..

When looking through applications, we aim to accept members that would contribute time, connections, and resources (in hopes of members collaborating with each other on projects). Based on your application, mentioning ownership of a successful startup with high revenue, we assumed that you wouldn't contribute a lot of time in our community. The applicants accepted into BC who have outside focuses (not related to Minecraft) were mostly accepted due to their pre-existing connections with the members, so we assumed that the community would be useful for them.

Due to your post above and your previous reply mentioning "exclusive communities do not do well", I still believe that our decision for not accepting your application is reasonable. Furthermore if you have any doubts or questions, please send me a message on MC-Market! Our applications are selective, but we're always looking to invite new members who can connect to our community :)

Huuuuuge vouch! I met so many new contacts and friends here and there's always some interesting conversation to be had!

Would definitely recommend anyone who meets the requirements to join, it's always great to have new people.

Dear MCM "Freelancers",
If you aren't in MinecraftBC then you aren't deserving of all the fake titles posted around MCM; "Professional", "Corporate level".
From, someone in MinecraftBC.

That's a pretty stupid comment ngl
Well if you think it’s stupid it’s because you’re not in the community and you’re probably using those terms to describe yourself. Quite frankly, the amount of 16 year olds in MCM that haven’t even made $100 let alone $10,000 like some of us in MCBC don’t deserve to have those self defined titles...”pretty stupid ngl”

Wow, you're part of the Minecraft Business Group! Do you understand people can be "professional" or "corporate level" without being in a Discord server. There are a lot of talented individuals on platforms like these, and although it's not most there are some. But, at the end of the day, it is MCMarket and Minecraft is a game made for children to enjoy. Not everything in this world has to be looked at and done solely for money. It's just quite the silly comment that you posted and I thought I'd let you know.

Evolve Ambrosia ~ this community wasn't created as a means to separate experienced freelancers versus inexperienced. Rather, we want to be able to provide the networking opportunity to a majority of our applicants. :)

Although an application is required to join the community, the requirements are minimal in order to give everybody a chance while also maintaining value in being part of the discord. I hope this thread won't be used for arguments like this one!

Oh man, I guess I'm not a professional who's been freelancing for nearly 7 years now. I'm 19 and I've made more than the $10,000 point you made. (Keep in mind 10k/yr also is not even close to professional levels of income, but I digress) I have absolutely no interest in joining this community at this time however due to you making it seem like some members act like it's an entitled community.

I do however like FatTaco's comment saying that the community is not to separate professionals from non-professionals. It's a community for providing networking and reach to people who are serious. If I needed to network, I would attempt to join but I personally prefer what I'm doing now and I may try to join in a few months once my projects are going strong. We'll see, but by no means does it separate professionals from non-professionals.
