Hello, Iron Edge!
Character: Coldwinter
Armory: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/Kazzak/Coldwinter/advanced
Class/Spec: Mage (DPS)
Member Type: social
Personal Info:
Hello, since a little bit of humor does not seem to fly with the Iron Edge dudes, I'll try again on request. I'll try to answer these questions in a serious fashion as far as I can.
My name is Don, I am a 20 year old student from the Netherlands.
Class/Spec:
I have played pretty much every class and every spec in the game to a certain extend. Some classes got boring to me faster than others, but there remained a couple of classes that I just never got bored of. Mage is the most fun class to me due to it's overall style of gameplay. There is no such thing as a noob mage that can do well. It's a class with one of the higher skill caps in this game, and it allows a good mage to destroy the other team, whereas a bad mage will get destroyed by the worst players.
Alts:
No relevant alts on kazzak or horde for that matter, due to playing alliance for the most of my WoW ''carreer''.
Professions:
Tailoring and Enchanting.
I have tailoring because of the lightweave proc.
It allows me to line up my procs and do a lot of damage.
I have enchanting because I'm mainly a PvPer, and enchanting turned out to be economically efficient.
Raiding/PVP Experience:
I started playing in TBC, where I played a gnome mage. I never raided much back then though. When Wrath of the Lich King came around, it really got me hooked. I was in relative semi-pro guilds with which we cleared content. At this moment in time I played a frost death knight.
Thereafter I quit during cataclysm and returned when MoP came around.
At this point I started to get interested in PvP.
Over the past couple of years I have been dedicated to improve in PvP, studying my gameplay to see what I could do better in duels. Once I mastered this on a couple of classes, I hopped into arena.
I have played most classes and specs on the PTR to atleast 1600 in 2s.
The highest of which I got with my mage, which was 1.9k
Then again, up to this point I had always just played for fun, without a consistent team to push rating or whatnot. So I can't say what my actual skill level would currently be.
Previous Guilds:
No mentionable ones. The ones that I was in, I either left because they didn't appeal to me in terms of what they had to offer, or I ended up not getting along with a couple of veteran guildies. I am over that now, though.
Availability:
During the holidays I will be working for my uncle in the United States for 10 weeks. Other than that I go to school every day, except for the weekends. I'm available most of the time, and pretty much play whenever I have time and desire to do so.
Communication:
English is my second language basically. I scored on and around 90% on every English test in the past. Formulation of sentences is no issue. My mic however, appears to be not the greatest. It has worked well for a long time, but lately it seems to be acting up according to some arena partners. I am willing to buy a new one if it's too drastic for others in the guild to listen to.
Computer / Connection:
I have an i5 processor with an Nvidia Geforce GTX 550 TI and 4 GB ram.
It's not the greatest but it provides me with 60+ FPS in most situations.
Addons/UI:
I only use a couple of addons that make tracking of cooldowns easier.
Other than that I like to manually keep track of things so that I don't have to rely on an addon when it suddenly isn't updated anymore.
Other Games:
I have played many other MMOs in the past. I will spare you the details, but right now I pretty much only play WoW on the PC. Other than WoW I play a couple of other games on the PS3, but I don't think that telling you the titles of these is relevant to your question.
Why Iron Edge?
I am a dedicated PvPer. I came from outland, where I could never find good arena mates, because high achievements we're always required. I just started and simply didn't have them. Hence I decided to play casual at the time.
Once I came to kazzak, I decided it's time to find people to push rating with. And I have chosen your guild to apply to.
What can I offer Iron Edge?
I am a dedicated PvPer. I can help you push rating and perhaps be a friend to many.
Where did I hear about Iron Edge??
I play a lot of arena with Anarawen. She suggested I should make an application for this guild, and so I did.
Last Words?
If this won't do, then I'm probably just not suited for your guild and unfortunately forced to continue my search for a good PvP guild.

Much better application! :)
Play a lot of arena with this guy indeed, he's a cool guy and I think he'll fit right in with us :)

Indeed it is, shame there was no actual attempt at humour.

Your face is an actual attempt of humor....
-
This was much better :) You can poke me or another officer for an invite :)

You don't get bonus points for claiming that the reason we didnt like your lazy application was our lack of humour, as you can see in the replies...
