Applications
Applications play a significant role in managing your Guilded server. They allow you to request potential new members to complete an application before joining. This approach serves multiple purposes – gaining insights into their interests and qualifications and ensuring their compatibility with your community. Please keep in mind that applications are primarily designed for joining your server. For internal roles or groups within your server, like staff positions, we recommend using Forms.
