Hey IE,
Just posted in the kodo graveyard with my sob story of being lonely after being away for nearly a year and thought what better way to get back into the game and find out the low down on what has changed than applying to IE :)
So, going by the F&F rules of application, here goes...
My RL name is Nick, I am Head of Design at a software company and have just turned 40! I know, was a big shock to me too but I made up for it with a debauched weekend at Torture Garden, look it up if you are over 18 ;)
I hope some of the original members remember me, I remember some of them. Of course there is Delling, nuff said ;) Then there was Grilly, who I remember grinding in the Plaguelands with, Lego, who is still a good friend of Biffy and has got wasted with a few times that I know of ;) Archz and Shannaro too.
I was a non-raiding member way back in 2006/7 when Bifftanner was the hunter class leader and learnt a lot about how to play the game through watching and joining in on the odd late night raid. But, in the end I left to join a less hardcore guild of friends that I had made in the game. We went through various guild name changes before disbanding before LK was launched. I even went over to Holland for a LAN weekend bash! I live in London btw.
After my friendly guild ceased to be I wanted to experience serious raiding and joined Fallen before LK launched and levelled to 80 in 5 days in order to get a first team raid spot. It was probably the best time I had in WOW to date, a real sense of achievement to be one of the first to down a boss.
I will never claim to be the best SP in the game but I do my bit, make as few mistakes as possibly and do my research! How frustrating it is when you get all the usual excuses of why someone or other has not, at least, watched the video of the encounter you are doing that night!
I am not applying for a raiding spot, yet, as I realise that I have been out of the loop for too long to jump straight back in, I have some serious reading to do in the next month to get up to speed with the new specs.gear/talents. What I am applying for is to join a knowledgable guild, with some old skool players that will remember the days before flying mounts, Jewellery Crafting and when AV used to take 10 hours to finish :D
I have a 4 level 80 chars at min but only Trollop has raid gear, albeit Ulduar gear but if you have need of any of the other chars I would willingly level them up to help out, post patch. Basically, I am in need of some motivation to get back into WOW and hope you guys sympathetic to an old timers needs ;)
