I'm Australian and I will be speaking through QLD Brisbane time.As you know a lot of AU people complain about oh NA get 7 games and EU get 5 and I totally agree with them because we are humans to people have to remember that and all though we are a smaller group we are better I mean look at ActualPro gets top 5 every NA game during the day. Here comes my point. Most AU hosts such as @Nicole @ShimamuraUzuki cant host every AU game so I believe there should be a section where people can email either nicole or Han because its not fair that we have to put up with 350ms and then NA and EU come on our games and just complain about the lag.
Something needs to be done asap

The majority of our playerbase is NA, so of course we are going to have more games for that, we only have 2 AU because 1; the playerbase for AU is too small, and 2; we don't have enough AU/AUish hosts to do so consistently.If you wan't to apply for host go right ahead, but I don't know what point you're trying to get across here.

I understand your concern and I am working on it however you cannot compare playerbases when NA and EU are much larger.Posted on 29 May 2015 - 10:12 PM
NA & EU are larger, however it would help if there were a couple extra hosts from each area as there could be more frequent matches, even if sometimes they don't get full.Posted on 29 May 2015 - 11:02 PM
@KetamineAddict1 thats my point if we got a AU HOST application it would make the community largerPosted on 29 May 2015 - 11:46 PM

AU hosts are always welcome to reply. About a month ago, Nicole pushed hard for AU people to apply.
We can't just accept anyone though. People have to meet certain requirements.
But as I said, no matter where you live, apps are always open. https://www.badlion.net/forum/thread/9352

I'm sure many people do but never know the reason they dont get acceptedPosted on 30 May 2015 - 11:17 PM
Same, there are plenty of people who would be good at hosting who have applied but not got a responsePosted on 31 May 2015 - 04:24 PM
Because a crapload of apps pile in and they can't leave a response for every onePosted on 03 June 2015 - 08:26 AM
I too have also applied for host and I'm au so yea……Posted on 03 June 2015 - 08:53 AM
@LobbsterBisque could you or another one of the senior hosts make a basic requirements section and make it a pinned thread on the UHC Section of the forums so we have a basic outline of what qualifications are needed to be accepted. Right now all we have that could help us in our applications is the forum post that tells us the questions we need to answer in our applications. It would help a lot if we knew what we could do to improve our chances in the application stages to be UHC Trainees.Posted on 03 June 2015 - 08:59 AM
We don't really have a minimum requirement for being host. It's more so what we don't want you to have.If you have a lot of recent punishments on your profile, or if you've been banned, even on other servers, we generally worry about hiring you.
Players are less likely to trust a host and want to respect them as staff if they themselves have a bad reputation.
Edit: This clearly isn't the ONLY reason you wouldn't be accepted. Just an example.

@ABCrabb If I got denied does that mean I have a bad rep because I've only been muted like 3 times and each time its been for like 5 minutes and I've never been banned on a server??Posted on 03 June 2015 - 09:09 AM
Not necessarily.There could be another reason. I was just giving general reasons.
edit: edited my post to include this.

@LobbsterBisque is there anyway I could ask @sluttycow why I was denied so I can improve on that aspect and possibly be accepted in 2 months when I am able to apply again?
