Are you applying for a Raider position, or Social membership?
-Raider
Tell us a bit about yourself! Who are you? Where are you from? How old are you? What kind of work do you do?
-Alex Legg from the UK, 20 years old and currently studying Accounting at university
Tell us about your personality, and why you enjoy the game.
-I would have to say I am quite a laid back person, I take things easy and don't get too stressed out. PvP and just generally playing with friends are what i enjoy the most
How long have you been playing computer games and what kind?
-Been playing games years and years, since the PS1, RPG is generally my favourite but i enjoy lots of different types
There are other guilds on the server, why did you apply to us?
-The guild is at my progression and would have at least some use for a rogue. Also from reading the forums it's all really well thought out and this definitely seems to be a guild I would like to be a part of.
What other guilds have you been in and why did you decide or were forced to move on?
-Broken Faith, I was with that guild for over a year and enjoyed my time there, but progression was not great so I thought I would give some real progression a try when a friend of mine decided to start a new guild. Won And Ownly, we managed 8/8(DS) in the second week of the guild being made which was really good but the guild kind of split with some people saying that others were not taking it seriously enough, this left me out of raiding so I have been taking a break last few weeks. So now I am guildless and looking to get back into raiding
Who do you know in Dead Men Raiding? How do you know them?
-Nope don't know anyone
Have you read our 'what we look for' and 'philosophy' posts? What do you think of them?
-Yes they are well written and make it quite clear what the guild is about
What do you look for in a guild?
-A guild that I enjoy being in is enough for me, with this guild I am looking to have that and some progression
Do you actively play any alts that we could find you in in case we need to contact you?
-Not really I have a few PvP geared alts that I only log onto to play with friends
''Dead Men Raiding'' - What comes to mind when you see that guild name?
-Makes me think of pirates, I guess Pirates of the Caribbean is probably to blame for that
What are your plans for the game? In what way would you like others to know you?
-I would like to be seen as a really solid player that people like to play with
Name one thing you don't like about WoW in its current state.
-The loot systems are not great but they seem to be getting better all the time
A guildie says something you find offensive, what do you do?
-Chances are I would just have a word with an officer later on
Cake or Pie?
-Pie

ADDITIONAL questions for Raid Applicants:

Which evenings of the week are you available to raid?
-Sun-Thu
Can you and will you speak actively with other guild members on Teamspeak and in guild chat?
-Yes
Do you have a stable internet connection?
-40ms most of the time
What sort of frame rates do you get when raiding?
-30-40 FPS, doesn't give me any issues
What kind of raiding experience do you have?
-I am currently 8/8 DS but have no previous HC raiding experience
If you are a cross-server applicant, name someone from your home server that can vouch for you.
-Well I am a horde side applicant, Samuna was my most recent raid leader he will vouch for me
If your armory does not show your intended spec then please make a template of it and link it.
-N/A
Why did you decide to play this class?
-I have always liked rogues in other games so when I started WOW was an easy choice
What do you think your class' role is in raid content?
-Rogues are in a really good place right now they have high damage and burst along with even better survivability, Feint needs a nerf
Comment on your build. Why did you choose it? What do you think of other builds of your class? Why didn't you choose one of those? (important question)
-I currently play combat which i actually switched to this tier, it has really good cleave damage and high burst which are quite important for some bosses. I used to play assassination which is nice but it is weak at target switching and there is little mass AoE which is where it shines. Subtlety is currently the highest single target damage however it is severely punished any time you are not behind your target, I would consider this spec for some fights but for now im sticking to combat
