"I regret to tell You, we have not been able to accept your ask for an account for Illarion. Because of the immense number of inquiries, we are not able to explain our refusal."
could someone explain to me exactly why i was refused? i've been role playing for 10+ years now.
my character name was Actero

Perhaps your story was poor. Your name may not be uitable for the race you play. Many more reasons are given around the board. Just give it a while, and try again in the future.

Given answers to our questions where insufficient.
We often stated, that names breaking the rules will be ignored and deleted without further response from us.

at least you could say which bit was not accepted, then it would be fine, and it wouldn't take too much effort, you've already diecided that i didn't get it so just spend 5 secs telling me why and i would be willing to try again, but without a reason, thats is just plain rude.

The GM's have already stated for more times that I can count. We dont have the time to spend telling each and every fool the reasons for them not being accepted. O this isnt an exact quote

oh yes, and they have enough time to tell me they they don't have enough time to tell me they can't tell me why i wasen't accepted, that makes perfect sense. All i want is them to tell me whether i wasen't accepted because of my name, sentence, or story.

The questions, because you get no reply if it is your name, you should have said that to begin with. If they told each person what is wrong with his/her story, they could re-write it up to par which proves nothing but they can re-write a story.

wait a minute ... my name was Olcard (for an elf) and it seemed to be good because they sent me and e-mail to continue a story ... but they didnt tell me how much long they wanted the story to be ... i wrote about 10 lines ... and i know it wasn't that good but anyway ... they have to accept everyone and give everyone a chance ... that all i thinK !!
and i know i am good for true RolePlaying because i too hate OOC and agree with all the rules of Illarion 100% and i am ready to obey them... but they did not accept me to play ... i thinK judging if a player is good to RP or not from a story is not just !!

The refusal message you got is the same message everyone who is refused will get. It'S a matter of a few clicks to send you this message. A detailed description of your faults on the other hand would cost them at least several minutes to write and send. And maybe you don't know that they have to process dozens of requests every day. If you consider this it surely makes sense, doesn't it?
Olcard, Roleplay is not only to follow the rules and not to talk OOC, but also the ability to adapt to changing situations and to follow certain guidelines which create the fitting atmoshere. From what you said about your story I can only say that it is absolutely not what the game staff wanted to read.

yea mann i guess u r right
a few minutes ago i made another character and another account request and they sent me an e-mail immediately
i wrote the story that was about a hobbit caught stealing and followed ... i tried to get out many aspects about the halflings ... for example that he is short (when i wrote that on a run to escape from the humans following him, he passed beneath one of them who tried to block his way)
or that the humans were getting closer to him because he could not run faster than they did because he has shorter legs
these and many aspects i tried to get out (like managing to hide beneath a 1 metre tall table in the market)
and at the end of the story i wrote that the hobbit enjoyed the meal which he bought with the money as he told the story to his friends
what ya think? well i cannot copy paste the story here ... it is too long
