Hello, thanks for taking your time to read this.
You
Who are you?
My name is Joshua.
Where are you from?
I am from Wales, UK.
How old are you?
19
What kind of work do you do?
Currently I am working in a garage on the weekend, not much but it is something.
What's your situation at home like?
My parents are divorced, I live with my mother, and I am an only child.
What kind of Internet connection do you have?
ADSL.
What are the core specs of your computer?
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz (2 CPUs)
1022MB RAM
How long have you been playing computer ames and what kind?
I really do play everything and anything, I love Real Time Strategies(WC3 SC1), First Person Shooter ( Left 4 Dead 2 ), MMOs (specifically WoW) RPG (Dragon Age: Origins and Mass Effect 2).
I have been playing games since...probably about when I was 9 years old. So I have 10 years of gaming under my belt.
What kind of raiding experience do you have?
When Wotlk was released I did Naxx, voa, OS quite a bit, but I pretty much stopped raiding when ToGC came out, for reasons unknown I can not explain. I've been in my fair share of guilds,I raided with a guild called Goretusk Liver for about a year, and that was at the start of Wotlk, after that I've been drifting into guilds that just seem to disband a short time after.
What other guilds have you been in and why did you decide or were forced to move on?
At the beginning of Wrath I joined a guild called Goretusk Liver, I loved that guild and for one simple reason, when we wiped, we would have one more go, and no one would leave half way through. After the guild disbanded, I joined a guild called Empire of the Sun, but it wasn't long until that got disbanded aswell. I decided (against my will more or less) to give up on raiding guilds for a time, and so I joined a casual guild called Dragon Hearts of WoW, but I feel the need to raid again.
Do you actively play any alts that we could find you in in case we need to contact you?
Yes, I also have a level 80 Druid (Volcanic) a level 80 Death Knight (Deathheraldd) and a level 80 Warlock (Loxus) I am also currently leveling my paladin (Soulterror) of whom is 72.
If you are a cross-server applicant, name someone from your home server that can vouch for you.
I only play on Aszune.
What are your plans for the game?
Enjoy WoW before Cataclysm hits the shelves, something I did not do back in BC, and I utterly regret that mistake. I want to improve my gear, make new friends, and basically have fun.
In what way would you like others to know you?
Someone they can rely on.
Tell us about your personality, and why you enjoy the game.
I like to think I am a friendly, approachable person with a determined but selfless attitude. I enjoy WoW for 2 reasons, 1) The social aspect, meeting people and becoming good friends with them. And 2) The competitive aspect, you can raid and get better gear, or you can do PvP and work together to bring down your enemy.
Name one thing you don't like about WoW in its current state.
Wednesday mornings most definitely, but I also don't like that it can take quite some time for a GM to respond to your ticket. But I suppose it could get quite busy with so many players.
Your character
Hunter http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Aszune&cn=Volcanicloo
Druid http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Aszune&cn=Volcanic
Why did you decide to play this class?
I prefer not to be in the middle of the mayhem, a melee class for instance, which I only realised when I leveled my Death Knight to 80 before my Hunter. I do how ever enjoy tanking on my paladin. I decided to play a druid because I didn't have a healing character, so I wanted to discover the joys of healing.
Comment on your build.
I use my Beast Master build when I am solo'ing and grinding, where as I use MM for dungeons and the like. I enjoy MM mainly because I do so much more dps with it that Survival, and also it's just simply put a fun spec.
This guild
What do you look for in a guild?
A friendly atmosphere full of fun and nice people but also people of whom can look past the annoyance in a wipe and carry on.
''Dead Men Raiding'' - What comes to mind when you see that guild name?
"If you fall down get up and try again."
There are other guilds on the server, why did you apply to us?
A friend of mine recommended it, Mythnight to be exact as I am not looking for anything hardcore but just a good raid.
Who do you know in Dead Men Raiding? How do you know them?
I know Mythnight, one of my most treasured friends, we met in Naxx 25 quite some time ago.
Have you read our 'what we look for' and 'philosophy' posts? What do you think of them?
I have read them, and I think they are handy as I have used them as guidelines for my post.
Annoying questions
A guildie says something you find offensive, what do you do?
Not sure, I don't really like fighting with people very much, it does no good to me or them, so I try to avoid disputes, but if it is the guildie's opinion, I will not say anything like "your wrong.", everyone is different. If it was something I said however I would apologize for it.
Cake or Pie?
Is it a lemon cake?
Thanks for taking your time to read this again.
Do I know you?
j/k :)
Great friend, even better player! Had a lot of great raiding experiences with him in Naxx & VoA.
Hope to see you soon as one of us.
Ps: go lvl a rogue!!! :p
