How did you hear about Nights? Ankaa
Why are you interested in joining us? Lately, I haven't been able to raid much. Its been either PuG or nothing. Ankaa mentioned you needed DKs, and spent awhile looking for a tank for one of your 10man groups the other night.
Why did you choose this class? Originally, this was an alt I leveled in Naxx days when I had nothing else to do on my hunter. As soon as I was 80 and defense capped, my guild at the time dragged me in as a 2nd OT for 25man Naxx. I also have spent a fair amount of time playing with all 3 trees as tank and dps.
Why did you choose this spec? For tanking, I enjoy blood. Especially in icecrown, where effective health is the name of the game, blood comes out as the best tank spec for death knights(imo). I prefer to DPS as frost, however, using my current axe as blood yields more dps than my 232 one handers. I don't particularly care for unholy. It does better in AoE situations, but I prefer unholy as my pvp spec.
***** Raid Experience *****
In WotLK, I have dps'd, tanked, and healed (on my paladin) all previous tier non-heroic content, with some hard modes every once in awhile when I find a group. I raided Kara, Gruul's, Mag's some SSC and TK pre-nerf, before I started my alotholicism.
Do you agree to abide by the loot policy?:
Yes.
We raid Tuesday - Wednesday with invites beginning around 7:40pm (server) and finishing around 11:00pm. Can you regularly attend both days? Yes. 90% of my work shifts are mornings, and I often have tuesday/wednesday off.
What kind of attendance can we expect from you upon being invited to be a raid with Nights?
(don't get me wrong, isn't this pretty much the same question?)
Please list the last 3 guilds you were in and describe the reasons you are no longer with them:
Aegis - still with them for the time being. They're good people and all, but most of them raid a bit later at night than I'd like, and so often times I end up not going. And many times people just aren't on.
Bring the Ruckus - I knew a couple people in there (this is after Stephaka-fail had quit), but it degraded badly when Severinze left.
Raiders for Hire - Was mostly just friends with some raids, but guild leader was quitting.
Why do you raid?
I got into raiding from my love of rpg's such as final fantasy etc. So WoW and pve raiding was sort of a natural thing.
In your opinion, what makes a raiding guild successful and what makes a raiding guild unsuccessful?
A successful raiding guild well enjoy the time that they are raiding. That, in my opinion, is 90% of being successful and lasting together as a raid, enjoying yourself. If you're not having fun, even if you're downing bosses etc, then you're missing the point, because WoW is a game we play to have fun.

What do you hope to get from a new guild that your current guild doesn't provide?
Getting to raid fairly consistantly -
IT'S A TRAP!
