Title: Defile's Application.

Please look at the image above first.

Hello, I’ll now give a bit more detail about myself so you can get a better idea of what kind of person I am.
My name is Ollie and I am 17 years old. I play a Rogue that has been named Ryder/Xsi/Defile. I live in England and I am currently on a 2 year Graphic Design course. Graphic Design has been an interest of mine for a long time and I enjoy using programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator and Flash. In my spare time I like to make images, sometimes serious, sometimes a more joke-like style as seen above. In 2007 I made a picture for the Iron Edge Christmas competition (under the name Ryder) and won, The Mighty Iron Sledge! :D

I have played computer games for as long as I can remember, back on the N64, working my way through the PS1, all of the Gameboys, Xbox, Xbox 360 and obviously my beloved PC. However, my gamespan on the computer has not been very wide, my most played games would be in order: WC3, Counterstrike:Source, Runescape (lol), Need For Speed and World of Warcraft. I have played Counterstrike for 4 years and WoW since November 2006.
During my 3 years on WoW I have class-changed many times eventually finding the class I love, a Rogue (I think I have a total of 9 Rogues ranging from 19-80). Before I rolled on Dunemaul with friends I played an Alliance Hunter on The Maelstrom, there I was a raider. I raided Molten Core, ZG and BwL on a regular basis (this was before AQ and Naxxaramas) so at the time it was a fairly high level, towards the end of pre TBC I started to PvP. When TBC hit I quit for a while and started to play again when Black Temple was the new instance, this was when I made my Rogue. I set out to PvE and raided up to Voidreaver *gasp* yes, you heard, Lootreaver. I had started to discover the faceroll power of a Rogue by this time and started to PvP on him. In S4 I enjoyed arena’s and played at above-retard level. Just before WotLK hit, once again I quit. I rejoined again and I am currently trying to catch up with PvP, I have started the honor farm and plan to get my rating back to a decent amount. Even though I do like arenas and battlegrounds one of my favourite things in WoW is to world PvP. In world PvP anything can happen and you have to be on guard, this is probably induced by me being a Rogue where world PvP is a bit easier (CloS, Vanish, Sprint, Safe.)
Aswell as PvP I also enjoy achievement farming, at the moment it is low but before WotLK it was fairly decent. Exploration, before patch 2.4.2 was probably one of the most enjoyable aspects of the game for me. Reaching places that were not intended and getting told to move by GM’s was quite fun ;)

The main reason I want to join Iron Edge is obviously because the pwn.
• Quote: Why do you want to join Iron Edge. "because the pwn" is not a good answer!
Jokes aside, que the violin. For a lot of my WoW time lately I have been guildless and havn’t really experienced much community, I’ve been a part of small guilds but nothing worth mentioning. I remember back in my old days of Pre TBC raiding I enjoyed the guild chat and being able to contribute to discussions. Bad word pun, I choose you! They say being guildless is boring, and that the chat is greener on the other side. Every member I have come across in Iron Edge has always been friendly and helpful, I have never had a bad encounter nor do I have a bad word to say about any member.
I also offer you my graphic skills but it seems you have some decent people (Devlin :P) already. However I can offer you an all round decent player with a nice personality and anything you could need from me /signmysoulaway :-[

My sponsor would be Daekesh, a Mage I have known nearly almost all my Horde life. I do not know him in real life but only in-game. We talk a lot but mainly moo, moo is what we do.
I’m not sure if he remembers me but also another in-game friend from my early TBC times was Shiftey, we did Heroics and Karazhan a fair deal. My Druid mentor ::)

If there is anything else you would like to know, please ask. Thank you for taking your time to read my application and I look forward to your comments whatever they may be, Defile. ;D

Plus hes english so is auto-maticly made of win.

I say give him a F & F invite, so we can have another rogue to give the epics daggers to, rather than Nach when all the other rogues fail.
