You
Can you and will you speak actively with other guild members on Teamspeak and in guild chat?
Voice comms are vital to a successful guild so yes I can and will talk on Teamspeak.
Who are you? Where are you from? How old are you? What kind of work do you do? Tell us a bit about yourself!
I'm Tommy and I'm from Viking land, or Denmark as it's known around the world. I'm 25 years old and I work at a factory although I hope to be starting on an education at some point.
Do you have a stable internet connection?
I haven't lived at my flat for long but so far it's been very stable.
How long have you been playing computer games and what kind?
Been playing games for many years, don't have an actual count but at least 15. I have played both on-line and off-line games.
Off-line I mostly go with story based Role Playing Games or sometimes First Person Shooters.
On-line I have been around lots of different games but here's a short list.
-Eve online: This game I've been in love with and played for 5 years but now the time has come to move on.
-Wow: tried it and didn't like it, only played for a few weeks and then I stopped.
- Star Wars Galaxies: good game, stopped playing after Sony put a blaster bolt in it's head and changed the game basics....
What kind of raiding experience do you have?
Actual raiding? None.
But while playing 5 years of eve I've learned to do what I'm told when I'm told by Fleet commanders or raid leaders as the term would be here I guess but like I said: No real raiding experience. Sorry.
What other guilds have you been in and why did you decide or were forced to move on?
My list of guilds in eve is not really long and their names would mean little. Most I left when they died or when I got tired of the drama....
- Debyl's raiders: My first real internet guild. left it because it died and everyone else decided that it was best left for dead.
- Corporation-Denmark: the guild I have been in the longest. almost 2 and a half years I have been in there but I've given up on eve and while I know many of them in real life I feel it's time to try another game and make new friends.
- E.S.C: I can't spell the real name of this guild as it was Latin or something like that but I left them when the Drama got to much for me. I personally think it takes alot to **** me off but these guys where part of the biggest alliance of retards in eve and I had enough at some point and went back to Corporation Denmark.
What are your plans for the game?
First off all I want to see the story-mmo. I have played almost every Bioware game out there and I loved them all. So I want to enjoy the story at first. But after that I'm aiming to try my hand at raiding and becoming a valued member of a guild but as this is very far from what I'm used to it might take a little while before I'm used to this type of game.
Your character
Either Imperial Agent [sniper] or Sith Warrior [juggernaut] Not sure yet.
Why did you decide to play these classes?
The Imperial agent just interests me because it's not about force powers or lightsabers. This class shoots mobs in the head and it damned good at it.
The Sith warrior on the other hand interests me because it's a power house in melee. And it got force powers.
What do you think your class' role is in raid content?
I have never tried raiding and would be lying if I claimed that I had so I will have to wait answering this till a later time.
Comment on your build. Why did you choose it?
Same as above
This guild
What do you look for in a guild?
I want a guild whom I can trust will keep a civil and mature tone, I have had enough of childish behaviour while I was in one of the guilds in eve. I also am looking for a place where I can give a hand in making the guild a good place to be in. No matter if it's helping a new player understanding something or something else.
''Dead Men Walking'' - What comes to mind when you see that guild name?
My first reaction was thinking about a movie I once saw about someone put on the death-row for a crime he didn't commit. Other than that I think about a group of men with a goal to complete and the knowledge that they won't come home.
There are other guilds on the server, why did you apply to us?
You're 'philosophy' post to be honest.
I have played enough in guilds where the guy with the biggest mouth is able to keep even guild leaders in check by merely yelling loud enough and I feel I have found a guild that won't allow that to happen. I also like that you are not an elite guild in the sense that I have to stay up for 16 hours and do raiding and then stay home from work afterwards to do an evaluation of my efforts....
Who do you know in Dead Men Walking? How do you know them?
So far? not a soul :P I hope to remedy that soon though
Have you read our 'what we look for' and 'philosophy' posts? What do you think of them?
I find them well thought out and well written. I like the idea that you expect us to use common sense and good judgement.
Annoying questions
A guildie says something you find offensive, what do you do?
That truly depends on the words he's saying. I got a strong back for things said over the internet but I have my limits but you really have to try to **** me off and I generally do not make a drama of it. I will ask the person to stop and If that doesn't help I will go to a guild officer or log off and let him vent it off on someone else.
Cake or Pie?
What heresy is this!? The cake is a lie and the Pie is toxic! No meat I tell you! MEAT!
Nice app Karrth! Sounds like you'll fit right in with us. Good luck with your application, our esteemed Sith Lord BrotherTobious will get back to you quickly!
Welcome Karrth, will get back to soon mate. One quick question where did you find us?
Thnx for the app. and a big welcome to the dMw forums ;)
Take a look around and maybe you will also find other stuff / ideas that you might like ;)
Thanks for the warm welcome :)
I found you by doing some searching for guilds on the SWTOR site, your name came up and after following the link here I've spent a few days evaluating the threads and your posts in them.
Yes I spied a little but I felt it was better to get to know you guys a little before wasting all our time by making an application and then leave later on if I found you to be trolls.... But so far you guys seem like the sort I'd enjoy gaming with :)
**Edit**
I'm sorry for the confusion about my account name and my application title... I must have missed the bloody 'q' :(...
Quote from: Karrth moonbladeq;338244Yes I spied a little
Hmm then maybe from this playing a Imperial Agent might be a good thing :P
but jokes aside welcome to the forums matey:D and good luck with the app

Well mate welcome to the fold, please add post in the player list you name and sign up on bioware site. Hope you enjoy your stay !!
Awesome :)
Will do so at once.
Thanks for accepting my application.
Hmm I can't Log into the SW:TOR site... Keeps telling me that my password is all wrong... I sure hope my account haven't been hacked already :(
But I'll keep trying and I do have a few days until the Beta and it's most likely just a glitch at the site but things like this makes me worried :P
