Attention: All potential applicants must read this page in its entirety before applying. Failure to do so will only hurt yourself, as this page
goes to great lengths to describe what we are looking for in new members. Please do not waste your time or ours!
There are several things we take in to account when we are deciding on potential recruits. The first of those things is your
application; it is your first impression upon us. One of the most important things to us as a guild is competance, and your first
chance to convey to us that you are worth our time is through the writing of your application. If you send us an application
that isn't well thought out, riddled with grammatical and spelling errors, or generally seems like you did not put a modicum
of effort in to it, we will most likely ignore you. Intelligence is paramount in this game; the encounters at the end-game level
are not what they used to be, and in almost every single one of them each person must be accountable to make proactive
and reactive decisions based on the information available to them for us to succeed.
If it seems to us like you have the IQ
of a well-ripened grapefruit, you do not stand a chance.
With that said, there are also several other things to take in to account before you apply, and they are each described below in
detail:
The ability to adapt, learn and become a better player
Chances are high that you are not Mohammed's gift to internet
gaming. That means that you must always be looking to improve your skill as a player. As well, you have to be able to soak
up vast amounts of information, whether that be during the learning procedures of a new encounter, or a set of tasks
being assigned to you. You also must possess the ability to fill any role we need you for, and be able to function at a high
level of performance no matter what job you are performing.
You need to be sociable, have a good sense of humor and be able to take a verbal beating
As a guild, we love making
things dead. That said, we also like to have fun, laugh a lot at overplayed internet memes and generally give each other
a hard time. None of that however is possible if you have the social aptitude of a 2-year old. We expect that you will not
annoy us with your mindless banter, have the ability to take a tongue lashing every once in awhile when you
screw up and laugh at our jokes when we tell you to.
You must be able pay attention and focus on a task
If you have the attention span of a peanut, you probably
won't last long with us. Raiding is usually arduous, brain-intensive, focus-requiring stuff, and we don't have room
for lemmings who can't handle that. If you find yourself constantly getting bored while getting ready to do a boss
encounter and decide to listen to music or clip your toenails instead, you will quickly learn that won't work in our
guild.
You can't have a computer with a *TURBO* button to bump up its processor speed to 66MHz
Shitty computers, shitty
connections and shitty OS management leads to unreliable raid members. If you're constantly going offline to reboot your
router or to restart your client because "me game laggin", you won't have a spot in our raids. As well, you should
be able to manage your in-game addons to a point where they don't complicate your job more than assist it.
You must show up to raids and you must be able to play a lot
We aren't as hardcore as many other guilds, but we take
the time we spend online seriously. On top of that, we keep a small roster (for many reasons), and that means we require high
attendance from our members. We raid five nights a week (and if necessary, on our off-days too), and if you can't make atleast
80% of those raids you aren't for us. Our raid schedule is as follows:
- Monday: 7:30 - 11:59 PM CST
- Tuesday: 7:30 - 11:59 PM CST
- Wednesday: 7:30 - 11:59 PM CST
- Thursday: 7:30 - 11:59 PM CST
- Friday: 7:30 - 11:59 PM CST *OPTIONAL*
- Saturday: 2:00 - 6:00 PM CST *OPTIONAL*
- Sunday: 7:30 - 11:59 PM CST
You must be able to farm your own consumables
This is a huge point that has to be taken seriously. Killing new bosses
requires lots and lots of potions. We simply cannot provide all our members with what it takes to kill a boss, so this
means that each and every one of our raids spots is for people who can farm their own shit. This includes things like Flasks and
other expensive consumables. You MUST be able to meet this requirement or you will simply not make the cut.
You must have already put a consiberably amount of time in to the game
This means that you are
REVERED with all
of the instance factions (Sha'tar, Cenarion Expedition, Thrallmar, Lower City), and you need to have your Karazhan attunement
done. On top of that, your gear needs to reflect that you have made a concerted effort to obtain the best items you can get.
... and here's the kicker
You must not annoy us with questions about your application
If we are interested in you, we will contact you. If we
don't contact you within 2 weeks of your application submission, that's a very strong indication that we don't want you. If your
application sucked, you didn't meet our requirements or you have a bad reputation for being an idiot, we most likely discarded
your application right after it hit the inbox.
DO NOT MESSAGE US IN GAME! We are busy, and if we think you would be a
good addition, we will be glad to message you ourselves.
