Yes. http://empireminecraft.com/threads/new-staff-application-version-5-0.53034/ I think this is the most recent one?
Staff Application's is always open. It's really never closed for the most part. It might at times have over 200 applicants but we gradually go thro each one. I know me personally I check weekly for new ones and makes notes to myself. so apply away if feel like your Emc staff material
