What are Forms and Applications?
Servers and departments use Melonly forms to take staff applications, ban appeals, shift reports and more. They'll share a link with you, and you sign in with your Melonly account to open it.
This page is for the person filling one in. To build your own, see Applications.
Opening a Form
The card at the top of a form tells you what to expect.
- Your Discord profile is shared with reviewers.
- Your Roblox profile is also shared if the form collects it.
- If it applies, the card says what approval gets you, such as membership, roles, a rank or an unban.
Requirements
Melonly checks the form's requirements when you open it. If you're missing one, you'll see what it is instead of the questions.
| Requirement | What it means |
|---|---|
| Roblox account | Click Log in with Roblox to connect your account |
| Roblox group | Click Join Roblox group, join it, then reopen the form |
| Discord server member | Join the server's Discord, then reopen the form |
| Time in the Discord server | You must have been in the server for the number of days shown |
| Punishment logs | You have more punishment logs than this form allows |
| Required roles | You need one of the Discord roles listed |
| Blocked roles | You have a Discord role this form doesn't allow |
| Banned from the private server | Ban appeals are only for people banned in that server. Check you're logged in with the right Roblox account |
You also can't open the questions if the form has closed, or if you're waiting out a cooldown between responses. The page tells you how many days are left.
Filling It In
Answer the questions, then click Submit application. Longer forms are split into sections, so use Next and Back to move between them. Questions marked as required must be answered before you can submit.
Drafts
Your answers save automatically a few seconds after you change them, and Saving Draft appears in the corner while it happens. If you leave, your answers will be there when you come back.
If the form's questions change after you've saved a draft, any answer that no longer fits is cleared.
After You Submit
You'll see a confirmation message, which the server can customize. Depending on the form's settings, you may also see:
| Button | Description |
|---|---|
| View Answers | Opens your response. Shown when the server shares responses |
| View Score | Replaces View Answers on a scored form |
| Submit another response | Starts a new response. Shown when the form allows more than one |
Most applications take one response at a time. If you reopen one while yours is awaiting review, you'll see this same screen instead of the questions.
Melonly DMs you when an application is approved or denied. If the server shares responses, the DM has a View Response button.
Your Response, Score and Feedback
Only you can open your response page, and it's only available when the server shares responses.
| Detail | Description |
|---|---|
| Status | Response awaiting review, Application approved or Application denied, with the date the result was released |
| Your answers | Everything you submitted |
| Total Points | Your overall score on a scored form |
| Question score | The points you earned on each question |
| Correct answer | Shown on questions you got wrong, when the form has an answer set |
| Feedback | Any comment a reviewer left on a question |
Scores appear right after you submit or once your response has been reviewed, depending on the form. If yours is released after review, you'll get a notification. See Quiz for more on scored forms.
Ban Appeals
A ban appeal is a form for people banned from a server's private ER:LC server. It needs a connected Roblox account, and approval unbans you automatically.
If your appeal is denied, you may see Appeal again, or a message saying how many days you must wait. Some servers also make you wait a number of days after your ban before you can appeal at all.
Documents and Workspaces
Servers and departments can share documents with you directly, through your Discord or Melonly roles, or with anyone who has the link. You'll need to be signed in, and you'll only be able to open what's been shared with you.
Documents
A viewer can read a document, and an editor can change it. Documents can have sub documents, which appear in a list next to the page. On wider screens, you may also see an outline of the document's headings.
If you're a viewer, the File menu has these options:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| New | Start a new document |
| Make a copy | Start a new document from this one |
| Print the document | |
| Download as plain text | Save a text copy |
| Download as html | Save an HTML copy |
| Copy doc link | Copy the link to share it |
Workspaces
A workspace collects a server's documents, forms and links into one small site.
Use the sidebar to move around, or the Previous and Next links at the bottom of each page. The sidebar only lists the documents you have access to. If you can edit a document, click the Edit Document button to start editing.
To learn how these are made, see Documents and Folders and Workspaces.
Reporting a Form
Forms are made by servers, not Melonly. If one breaks the rules, click Report Abuse at the bottom of the page, add your reason and click Submit report.
