Personal Information

Age:27 (I know, I'm an old fart)
Nationality:British

Q: Tell us about yourself. (Student/work etc.)
A:Currently signed off from work due to a long term illness. I'm into music (mostly industrial EBM and various types of Metal) also have a soft spot for 80's music, being a child of the 80's and all that.
I'm very much into my Beer, I attend beer festivals pretty frequently.
Q: Playschedule availability:
A:Like it says above I can't work at the moment, so I'm free pretty often. My girlfriend is happy for me to play while I'm with her, if I give her enough notice, so unless I'm venturing out of my cave I'm available most evenings.
Q: How do you see yourself as a raider, and where do you think you can improve best? (What are your pluses and minuses)
A:I have a good brain for tactics, and tend to study tactic vids before entering a raid. So I generally know what I'm doing. I suppose a fault of mine is I can be a bit clumsy sometimes
Q: Tell us about how you see your class. (What are the strong and weak points, what would you change if you could?)
A:I like that Rogue is a pure DPS class. So no faffing about having to change specs and get fifty different armour sets for whatever I want I want to do. If I could change anything for the better though, I would be inclined to say provide easier and more effective means of avoiding aggro. I loathe out aggroing a tank and getting spanked for it.
Q: Do you often check sites like Elitist Jerks to keep up-to-date with the theorycrafing of your class?
A:I make a point of keeping up to date with ideas of how best to play my class, what best gems/enchs to use, and rotations etc. I'm always open to contrstructive criticism from other players.
Q: How do you prepare for a raid or a new boss encounter?
A: Read wowwiki and watch tankspot mostly. Though none of those compare to actually doing the fight.
Q: Do you wish to explain anything about your current gear, talentspec, enchants or gems?
A:Only that I'm not wasting money on enchanting items lower than 346.
Q: Do you have any alts worthy of a mention?
A: Afraid not. I have one or two alts that I level for fun. but nothing I take very seriously.
Q: What kind of PC do you have?
A:Pentium 4 CPU @ 3Ghz, 3GB RAM, 512meg Gfx Card with 512 Cache.
And a mouuse that's in dire need of replacing. And then setting on fire.
Q: How would you rate your internet-connection in terms of stability?
A: It's fully stable. I avoid wireless. My ISP gives a solid connection, but is occasionally prone (say about once every 3 months) of going down "for maintenence" with no warning.
Q: During our raids we use Ventrilo, how do you feel about this and do you mind to speak on ventrilo? (We might invite you for a ventrilo interview regarding your application)
A:Unfortunately for some obscure reason I have never been able to get Vent to work on my PC, I realise this is a big black mark for me but there's not very much OI can do about it (believe me, I've tried). But if a proper chat is needed for my application you're welcome to ask for my MSN or something.
Q: How often would you check our forums and/or post on the forums?
A: I will likely read the forums frequently, but I cxan't promiose I'll post much unless I have somehting particularly relevant. I don't like making noise on forums for the sheer sake of it.
Q: Describe your guildhistory. (Guild names, reason for leaving, references).
A: In Good Omens during the Naxx period of LK. I left because I quit WoW for a while for various reasons.
My last guild was Excistence. I had a pretty bad christmas period for wow, and I couldn't commit to raiding at the time. Things have calmed down now though.
Q: Do you have any achievements that you are particularly proud of?
A: Kingslayer, easily. I'm a lorefiend, I was playing the Warcraft games since I was a kid so I love taking part in the story of Wow, so killing Arthus was a big deal for me.
Q: Please rank the following activities/conditions in order of importance to you. Most important on first position, least important on last.
• Balancing raiding with real life commitments. (RL is more improtant to me than WoW, but I love wow and always try to make time for it.)
• Making sacrifices for the guild, when needed. (A guild needs the support of its members)
• Willing to go all the way to become a better player. (Becoming a better player is my reason for playing at all)
• Playing your alt(s). (They're fun, but not important)
• Getting server first kills. (Whats the rush? Just enjoy the game)
• Guild-organised pvp activities. (I'm not really into PvP)
Q: Where did you read our recruitments posts?
A:I didn't. I got to randomly chat with a member of your guild (Rizex) and he suggested I apply.
Q: If there is something you’d like to add, then this is the place.
A: I don't respond well to childishness. Namecalling will lead to an /ignore. Besides that I'm very hard to offend.
Q: Hows is your overall WoW experience?
Vanilla – A:I joined wow diring the TBC era.
TBC – A: I got to 70 just as Lich came out, so I never got to kill Illidan Stormrage
WOTLK – A: It was pretty good from my perspective to be honest. A bit too easy but they really worked on implementing a decent story arc to the new Zones.
