It's okay that you were busy for whatever reasons, but considering the fact that you posted an application here and then disappeared with no notice points out that you really don't care. In addition, with respect to the fact that most active ducks don't want you, I presume there's still a lot of room for improvement.
You had better apply later when you become more active and think you're in a better position than you are now. Sorry, denied. Next time do find some time to check your own app (in case).
