*** Application Enquiry ***
Why do you want to join Redrum Inc and what do you feel you will bring to the guild?
-I know your cousins from TVC server and them being one of the better raiding guilds over there. I tried to apply there but they didn't need another DK and I thought to look you guy's up and saw an opening for a DK. I have been looking for a raiding guild ever since my previous guild has fallen apart. And seeing only 2 options on TVC, Redrum Inc and YOGS, I decided to switch server since most of my friends already did so.
When did you start playing WoW and what previous raiding experience do you have?
-I started playing WoW about 4 months after its release. Mostly in that time I played a casual game and raiding around 3 day’s a week. This all changed when the first expansion hit the stores and my first guild transformed to a more raiding guild. And later on in TBC when I switched servers to join Unity of the Alliance. From WotLK we were the third alliance raiding guild on the server until 2 months ago when it kinda started to fall apart.
Pre TBC: ZG, MC and some in BWL
TBC: All except Sunwell
WotLK: All raid instances except some bosses inICC10/25 and none on HM in ICC.
Which previous guilds have you been a member of and why did you leave them?
- Unity of the Alliance: Since the time I joined TBC server I have been with Unity. First raiding KZ and later on MH and BT with great success for a causal guild, at least we weren’t a real raiding guild yet. This changed with WotLK. With some great successes in 25man raids and some big ones with 10man HM raids. To be honest if Unity didn’t fall apart I wouldn’t leave them.
Have you recently applied to any other guilds, or are you planning to?
- I don’t have any applications open at this moment and I won’t make a new 1 before I know if I’m accepted or declined for this 1.
Under which circumstances would you stop playing WoW or leave the guild?
- The only reason at this moment I can figure out to leave WoW is that RL needs me. I find WoW a great game to relax in and it takes a lot of time from me, which I don’t mind, but RL will come first if that even happens.
Our raiding schedule is Sunday to Thursday from 19:00 to 23:30 server time. How many days a week, on average, would you be able to attend?
- I should be able to join all raiding day’s unless I need to work evenings. This happens around 3 days a month.
What do you feel your class and spec bring to the raid? Do you feel like you need to explain some talent choices in the spec you have chosen?
-Mostly I bring some good and steady dps to the raid. The spec I choose is always what the raid needs. I’ve been frost dps and even blood (didn’t like it that much). But at the moment unholy is the best dps spec around there. The buffs that blood and frost dk’s bring can also be given by other classes in the game, but Ebon Plague on the other hand is more difficult for other classes to spread around multiple targets at the same time if they don’t want to sacrifice there dps.
Are you willing to change your talent spec to help the guild, and if so, do you have gear for any off-specs already?
-If needed I can respect to frost dps, even blood. But I dislike blood a bit.
Please explain the reasons behind your choice of professions.
-Jewelcrafting has some nice prismatic gems to improve the stat you use a bit more and provides a good income on TVC.
Alchemy I used to make flasks for the guild, but lately that hasn’t been needed and I switched from elixir master to transmutation master to create some epic gems.
Do you have a good computer and a stable internet connection?
-I have a 30mb line which is very stable and have an ingame latency from around 30-50 ms in raids. My comp aint the best, but it’s reliable.
CPU: intel Q6600 2.4GHz, RAM: 4GB, Grafics: Ati 4850 512MB
Do you have Ventrilo installed and a working microphone and will you be vocal?
- I have been using Vent from TBC and on, but haven’t used a mic for some time. I’ll buy 1 if it’s needed for the interview.
What is your position on PvP?
- I have pvp gear, although not that good. Normally I don’t pvp much since my first partner stopped.
What is your position on roleplaying?
-Haven’t done it for a long time, but isn’t life a big roleplay?!
Do you know anyone in Redrum who can vouch for you? If so, please state their names (Do NOT mention someone here unless you have already contacted them and they have agreed to vouch for you).
-None I can think off.
Have you read the guild rules, and do you have any comments on them? (the guild rules can be found by clicking on 'About Us' on the menu bar)
-Read them and I don't have any comments about them.
Is there anything else that you would like to tell us?
-Just want to thank you for reading this application and if I’m accepted for trial I can transfer almost instantly (takes 1 hour) since this is my week of work.
