-What is your attitude towards raiding? This includes signing up, preparation and during a raid:

I have always enjoyed raiding, it very rarely becomes a chore. I enjoy wiping relentlessly learning a boss, perfecting kills and finding more challenging ways to do bosses. Through over 6 years competitive raiding experience I would say my attitudes towards raids and raiding are where they should be, on time with consumables and prepared to give it ya all.

-What is your attitude towards 'l00t'?:

Everyone wants to get upgrades but loot is a bi-product of raiding that is there to improve the roster and aid progression.

-Anything else we should note? eg. Do you work alternating work shifts/times, have you any lengthy important AFK’s in the near future?:

-Are you available to extend past our 12am raid time if an important boss be close to being killed or we are near a full clear of an instance?:

Of course

Class Improvements

Do you read up about your class for improvements? For eg. which websites would you use?

I have been using MMO forums and Elitist Jerks to get all my need to knows about Deathknights. Previously I was using Skeleton Jack but the moderator has stopped playing wow.

You and Fatal

How did you hear about Fatal?

Realm Forums

What are you looking for when joining a new guild like Fatal?

At the moment I am hunting for a casual raiding schedule with a good atmosphere. I have decided to continue playing WoW through 10 mans as they are less demanding and I have simply always had more fun while in 10 mans than in 25 man raids.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Guild History

Previous Guilds:

Most Recently Reclamation Yard.

Reason for leaving the most recent guild you were a member of:

I love everything about the guild including the people in it. Although there were plans pre cata to set up a more casual 10 man raiding scene within the guild I am not in a place where I am prepared to set up and lead raiding teams I much prefer the less stressful approach which means I can keep up with my studies and my social life.

Additional Info

-Anything else you would like to add to your application regarding yourself and World of Warcraft? This could include your history playing WoW, notable guilds, experiences you've had, playing times, favourite things, dislikes?

As you would of figured out by now I am applying with a character that has only recently become my main character. I decided to stop playing my priest late in WotLK with proposed changes to Dot mechanics and Shadowpriest mechanics, shadow went from being a complex and brilliant spec to play to something reasonably straight forward (no offence to any shadowpriests reading but I hope you agree that it has been simplified) .

I enjoyed tanking with my Deathknight during WotLK running GDKP runs , guild alt 10 mans and achievement runs etc. Tanking is and always has been for me enjoyable and challenging for the most of times.


-Anything else you would like to add to your application regarding yourself? This could include any other personal information like hobbies, interests, work. Or you may want to write about your personality and likes/dislikes:

I need to add that I have a very dry and brutal sense of humour. I swear like a sailor and do and will joke with people that to the un-experienced eye would be offensive. I take it as well as I give it but I do not want any misconceptions of me being some kind of rainbows and gum drops Disney character.

Edit: I forgot to Add that I do have a working version of Ventrillo and a working mic.
Edit: Added Armory links for my character + alt now it is back up.

Thanks for reading
