http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/m ... s/advanced3) What is your Battletag?
Effers#1600
Personal Information:4) Are you 17 or older?
Yes. 38
5) Can you communicate in English?
Yes, its my primary language.
Computer Information:6) Can your computer handle 25-Man raids without any issues?
For the most part, never had an issue with computer performance while in raid. The most recent was Ji-Kun, I had a little stutter but others in raid experienced the same issue. But we were still able to down the boss on that pull. Outside of that, my computer performance has been flawless.

No issues with a microphone and using it when needed. However, I won't sing to you.

I have used both and have no issues.
Player Information:10) What is your raiding experience? (Please focus mostly on current content)
ToT - 6/12 Normal
MSV - 5/6 Heroic
HoF - 2/6 Heroic
TES - 1/4 Heroic
DS - 8/8 Heroic
FL - 7/7 Heroic
11) How prepared do you show up to raids?
I feel I am a thorough player that not only shows up to raid with flasks, potions and 300 food, but I do participate in PTR when possible. I try to research new content not only from a DPS perspective, but also tanks/heals so I can anticipate what they will be doing during an encounter. It always doesn't work out but I find it is helpful information. Class specific sites (howtopriest.com and others) provide uselful information for players that may have already progressed on content or are currently working on it.
12) What is your availability on Tuesdays & Thursdays (9:00pm - 12:30am EST)?
The days/times work well with my schedule. In addition, I can be available for an extra day here and there for progression or raid cleanup. Although I want a two night raiding guild, it seems like I am online everyday.
Additional Information:13) What were your previous guilds? Why did you leave?
The Requiem (Magtheridon) - I was hoping to be able to cope with a 3 to 4 night raiding schedule but it just doesn't work with my schedule. Nothing bad to say about the guild though. Drunk In
Public (Zul'Jin) - Two night guild that is pretty competitive but they have some players that are gating their progress. After some open disucssion (as a guild), it was determined that there is no intention of letting those players go.
Dulce Bellum (Stonemaul) - Great guild but like DiP, I feel there were players gating our progress. I know they tried their best but some people had issues with mechanics and such. Leadership was the shining star
14) Are there any <Gloryhogs> members that can vouch for you?
Not at this time.
15) Please provide us with an up to date World of Logs (NO LFR!!!)
http://worldoflogs.com/guilds/31251/16) Is there anything else that you feel must be mentioned in your application?
I have been raiding for several years on a 3-4 night per week schedule and it has officially worn me out. Between work, wife and kids, and just cannot support the heavy raid schedule. I am looking for a solid 2 night raiding guild and found Gloryhogs on wowprogress and other related forum. Poked around with the little access I have and thought it may be a place for me to hang my hat. If accepted, I hope it turns out to be a good fit. I am a very dependable person and very involved in the guild, in and out of raid times.
I did have one question. Smolderthorn appears to be a very low population server. How does it affect you as a guild? Am I correct in assuming PUGS are few and far between? How is the economy?
If you have any questions at all, please let me know.
