Player age - [HDL] guild and Ventrilo chatter is for mature audiences only. If you are not 18+, you will need to be sponsored by a guild member in good standing.
I am 19 years old.

Where did you hear about [HDL]?
A good friend of mine is a member.

Why do you want to join [HDL]?
I would like to join a relaxed guild while still being able to make progress in endgame raiding. And I would like to have fun doing it!

If you are in a guild, why are you leaving?
I would like to gear up, and my guild is not at a good place to acomplish that.

Will you dedicate 5 days a week to raiding?
I have a lot of free time so I could...

If you answered ""Yes" to the question above, are you aware that [HDL] is not a hard core raiding guild?
Yes I was aware that this is not a hardcore raiding guild.

Will you dedicate 2 nights a week to raiding?
Yes I will.

Addendum, 22 Dec 2008 - we are very full on DPS builds. If you are DPS, you will be on a longer rotation schedule than our tanks and healers.
That is fine with me.

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'd bust a cap in his behind.

I'd continue on... after /laughing at him.

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, depending on the context. :P

Does .Net suck?
Although I don't agree with some of their choices. I can't do anything about it, so no use getting beaten up over it.

Whiskey or whisky?
Whiskey all the way!

Are you aware the [HDL] is largely a collection of angry and cynical players and under-geared toons?
I feel at home already. ^.^

I heard you guys have cake.

Side note, The E in my name is Alt +0233

[sadistxcreed]

Yeah this guy is a douche. I grouped with him a few times and absolutely hated everything about him. He should quit WoW and subsequently...life.

Just kidding.... heh...yeah i know this guy and he is pretty awesome =D He is pretty funny and a good player. Im sure everyone would like him.

[flambe]

So.. a quick question.

If I wanted to send you a whisper in-game... how do I accomplish that?

Do I have to type your name and use the alt+233 to even send you a whisper?

I cannot begin to tell you the fucking annoyance that is.

If there is an easier way... please do inform me. I'd love to hear it. Until then I am on a holy tirade against such things.

[Ian]

do a /who Ark, Dave.  It should spawn up everyone who's name starts with those letters and the list shouldn't be too long, if he's online you can then just click his name and send him a whisper.  Happy hunting =P.

Yeah, allowing those characters in names was one of the dumbest moves ever by Blizzard.

Yeah, allowing those characters in names was one of the dumbest moves ever by Blizzard.

But without UTF8, no Chinese (???), no Swedes (Åkerhielm), no Germans (Übermensch), etc....

But yes, I hate those when I am not on my Mac.
