Just to preface: yes, I know the guild is Alliance and I\'m currently Horde. If accepted, I would faction-shift (and likely server-move, too). Julise responded to my plea for a decent guild on the WoW Forums, so here I am.\r\n\r\n************************************************\r\n\r\nThank you for your interest in Core. Core is a progressive raiding guild on World of Warcraft\'s realm of Greymane. The guild is based on an ambitious atmosphere, where members work together to create a helpful, respectful and fun environment.\r\n\r\nScheduled raids start at 7:00 PM CST and end at 10:30 PM CST, Tue. and Wed. and we expect members to maintain 80% raid attendance. If you can\'t commit to our schedule or attendance requirements, please do not apply for a raider position. \r\n\r\nWe appreciate the time you take to fill out the application. Please fill it out completely and honestly. Applications that are incomplete, that contain inconsistent information or are sloppy mean that you do not take the application seriously. We won\'t either. This is your first impression. Make it count. \r\n\r\nAn officer will be in contact with you (or respond to your post) within two days after you have submitted your app.\r\n\r\nBecause Core is a Legion raiding guild, we do not accept initiates lower than level 110.\r\n\r\nCore requires a raider to have Ventrilo and the mods: Omen/Diamond Threat Meter as well as Deadly Boss Mods/BigWigs. Core requires a raider to use appropriate pots/flasks/elixirs while raiding (food is provided) and the use of the appropriate enchants/gems on raiding gear. If you cannot install and/or use these minimum requirements, please do not apply.\r\n\r\nTo be ready to raid with Core, applicants will have:\r\n-- Ability to be prepared for fights. This includes awareness of strats and bringing consumables and flasks, being fully gemmed and enchanted.\r\n-- Ability to blend into Core and not expect Core to blend into you.\r\n-- Positive non-disruptive attitude.\r\n-- Prior raid experience. \r\n\r\nApplicants who completely and competently answer ALL questions will have a greater chance of being invited as an initiate.\r\n_________________________________________________________________________________________\r\nCHARACTER\r\n-- Name: Furyofwar\r\n-- Class: Warrior\r\n-- Level: 110\r\n-- Race: Orc\r\n-- Talent Spec: Fury\r\n-- Off Spec: Protection\r\n-- Professions: Blacksmith/Jewelcrafting\r\n-- Time played: ... Incalculable. I\'ve been in the game since open beta.\r\n-- Age (must be 18+): 41\r\n\r\nSCHEDULE\r\n-- Time Zone: Central\r\n-- Average playtime per week (hours): 14-20, depending on the week\r\n-- Are there any days which you are unavailable to play?: Friday evenings\r\n\r\nRAIDING PREPARATION:\r\n-- Specifically which consumables do you bring with you to raids?: Pots, flasks, food (even if it\'s provided, best to have my own in case I\'m the only one who croaked)\r\n-- Do you have vent installed and have a mic? This is required and needs to be working at the time you apply: Yes and yes\r\n\r\nGEAR\r\n-- Armory Link: (please log out in MS gear)\r\n\r\nGUILD INFO:\r\n-- Past guilds/realms and reasons for leaving: Latest was Manifest on Hyjal; a bunch of us logged in one day and found ourselves gkicked. Before that was The Brute Squad, also Hyjal; left due to personality conflict. Before that... hey, I\'m old, I can\'t remember that far back.\r\n-- Current guild: None\r\n-- What are you looking for in a guild?: Reliable raiding and mythic dungeon activity, minus the elitism and inflated gear score demands of the LFG system. I mean, seriously, demanding 880+ GS to run a +3 mythic? Crazy.\r\n-- Why do you want to join Core and what do you expect from us?: Julise made you guys sound like a solid group, and I haven\'t seen anything to dissuade me from that appraisal. I expect to be given a chance to work with the guild to beat content; that\'s about it.\r\n-- What value-add will you provide to Core and to Core\'s raid team?: I show up, I follow instructions, I get my ass out of the fire, I speak up when I have something useful to say, and I do my best to whup ass (or have my ass whupped, if you need me to tank). I won\'t say I\'m an all-star, but I do my best to be a useful player.\r\n\r\n\r\nREFERENCES\r\n-- Please list any Core members you know who will vouch for you: Only contact I\'ve had is Julise responding to my post.\r\n-- Are you applying with a friend? If so, please list the character name of your friend: N/A\r\n\r\nCOMMENTS\r\n-- Feel free to tell us about yourself and add any additional comments relevant to your application (personality, gaming style, interests, etc.): As I said above, I\'ve been in the game since open beta. I\'ve end-game raided in all expacs except Burning Crusade. I\'m also a big-time geek; I play 40K, tons of other video games, and a simulated combat game (not a LARP, but similar). Ummmm... yeah, I don\'t talk about myself much. Don\'t know what else to say. Anyway, have a good one! Thanks for slogging through my application.\r\n\r\nContact Julise or Ebbie for more information regarding your application.
