Title: Mahoma's Application
Post by: Mahoma on Sat, 2010-01-09 : 23:59
Howdy  :o


Mahoma 80 Arms/Prot Warrior

My name is Aaron, or you could call me Memphis, either way.

I am 23 years old, I shall be 24 in 30 minutes.

Where did you hear about [HDL]?
I came across them on one of your ICC25 Pugs

Why do you want to join [HDL]?
I need a guild with some competency, and the willingness to venture out and raid something other than Naxx. And to meet wonderful players and learn, of course.

I was in Evil Moon Clan for awhile. One of my friends had me join, but after awhile we kind of broke off into a smaller more casual 10 man raid guild. I cannot remember the name though, it was deleted.

What do you want from a guild?
I would like to enjoy my time playing and have somebody to run raids and groups with. I enjoy running around doing random achievements, trying not to let the game get old.

Can you follow kill order?
Very much so, I can also dps adds!

Are you a Casual player, Raiding oriented player, or a PvP oriented player?  If you think you are a combination of any of those, what percentage of time would you spend on each?
I am a little bit of all 3.   I would say I am 30 percent raiding, 50 percent casual, and 20 percent pvp.

Raiding Questions

Will you dedicate 5 days a week to raiding?
That is highly doubtful, my girlfriend would have my balls in a  meat grinder before that happened. Lol

If you answered ""Yes" to the question above, are you aware that [HDL] is not a hard core raiding guild?
Yes. Since I dont have a guild I pug all the raids I can and usually finish everything but ICC25.

Will you dedicate 2 nights a week to raiding?
That I can do

Are you willing to take/accept criticism to make you a better player?
Of course, as long as it is constructive criticism and I am not being told TO DO something or die, Ill be more than willing, just ask me to change something, Ill do it.

We do require Omen and Deadly Boss Mods. Do you have these installed?
Most certainly

What is your primary and secondary talent build? Which do you prefer?
Primary is prot, however after I hit 80 I focused on Arms so that is my better spec, but I can tank heroics and the lower tier raids. Im currently working on emblems for my prot spec. And I prefer Arms

What is your rotation for your primary and secondary builds?
rend, mortal strike, overpower, execute. WW kept on CD. Prot is more situational. Taunt, charge, devastate-heroic strike, taunt taunt taunt. stun stun stun.

Explain your gear choices, including gems and enchants.
I mainly have gear that ups my dps, and caps my hit and expertise. After capping hit and expertise I am working on gemming for Armor Pen. With my trinket it seems to be what raises my dps significantly, especially on single targets. Enchants are Berserk, AP, and all the faction enchants.


PVP Questions

You are headed to run an instance with non-guildies when you spot a flagged gnome. What is the proper course of action: 1) Ignore the gnome and head to the instance, 2) Send a message to the guild of your find. flag immediately, and kill the gnome, leaving the PUG to wait, or 3) neither. If you selected 3, what course of action would you take?
I would actually use my orb of deception, turn into a gnome myself then procceed to kill him then head into the instance.

You are headed to an instance with the guild when you spot a flagged gnome. What is the proper course of action: 1) Ignore the gnome and head to the instance, 2) Send a message to the guild of your find, flag immediately, and kill the gnome, leaving the group to wait, or 3) neither. If you selected 3, what course of action would you take?

A tea bag is 1) a small porous bag containing tea leaves or powdered tea, onto which boiling water is poured in order to make a drink of tea, or 2) a verb.
Both, and no thank you, I like coffee haha.

Do you prefer Battlegrounds, Arenas, or World PVP? Why?
Battlegrounds, I get happy when fighting with a large group of people.

What is your favorite battleground? Why?
Wintergrasp, I like the defense.

Rank in important to stack for an Arena battle: Resilience, Attack Power/Spell Power, Critical Strike, Hit Rating.
I would say resil, AP, crit, hit.


Social Questions

How would you rate yourself as a World of Warcraft player?
11/10

Does .Net suck?
No

Whiskey or whisky?
Whiskey. Mmm

Rank in importance to you: Raiding, Fun, PVP, Loot, Camaraderie, Wine, Women/Men, Music, Altaholism, Crafting.
Women. Fun. Wine. Music. Raiding. Crafting?

Please provide a perl script that will sort a CSV file by first column, then second, and then insert into a mysql database.
Wtf did you just say?

What is your favorite instance? What is your favorite boss fight?
I like nearly all of them, but I like halls of stone, big instances like that.

Are you easily offended? Is your hot button race, religion, sex, or politics?
Not at all, and politics.


Are you aware the [HDL] is largely a collection of angry and cynical players and under-geared toons?
Didnt know that, but thanks for lettin me know!
Really? Why do you still want to join [HDL]
You look to me and ask me why. I look to you and ask why not?

Thanks for your time! Hope to hear from ya soon!

what are your feelings on dogs? horses?

Dogs and horses together? I think every horse should have a horn glued to its head just to make it a little more special. And I love dogs, except when they eat shoes.

The best way to fix that, and I don't advocate harming dogs at all, (in fact, I get a little bit angry when folks suggest it); is to loosely tie what's left of the shoe around the dogs neck or head, and make them wear it for a few hours.  I have a german shepherd/hound/dobermann mix who must have chewed 5 pairs of shoes or boots that I owned.  I took one of the recently chewed shoes and made her wear it as a collar for about 4 hours.  That's been about 9 years ago, and she won't even look at a pair of my shoes.

Oh, and I liked the quote about your girlfriend grinding your nuts if you play WoW 5 nights a week.  Even worse though, she could cut you off, the booty trumps WoW every time.  Good luck on your Guild App.

Haha thanks! I actually had a rescued pitbull, he would eat just about anything until I got an old shoe and rubbed it down with cayenne pepper. He didn't enjoy that too much. He never chewed anything again!

What Faraherde meant to ask was: How do you feel about Jurassic Park?
Title: Re: Mahoma's Application
Post by: Mahoma on Sun, 2010-01-10 : 11:14
Have you ever dug thru a pile of poop to find a satellite phone? Hardcore. I liked Jurassic Park. It would have been better if it was directed by Mel Brooks though.

That was from Jurassic Park 3, a movie that doesn't exist to me despite having Dr. Alan Grant in it again.  Good effort, though.  Picking the wrong movie and failing to cite Dennis Nedry or velociraptors should drop it down to half credit at best, but you're new so I'll cut you some slack.

Final answer grade: C-
