Cinderous Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) Hey! It's definitely been a while. I had a fairly rocky end to 2012 during which a lot of family issues consumed most of my free time. I am however, back (finally) and I'd love to join you guys as a social/casual member (and maybe even a raider some day). I would say that I am looking to raid but with my gear level on all of my 90s, there's no way I would ask you for a spot, at least until I can be more competitive in terms of being in a top 100 guild. I have a lot more time that I would like to dedicate to the game and as part of that, a community of friends. You guys definitely made a huge impression on me during the Heroic Dragon Soul run you took me on and I'd love to be a part of a guild environment such as yours. I do not, as such, have the best raiding resume, at least not recently. I raided in a realm first guild from WoW's release through Naxxramas (level 60) and then server 2nd-4th through Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King, ending with Yogg'Saron. I am quite accustomed to the competitive raiding environment in terms of what is required of me as a player. However, I have not raided current content or pushed progression in a top 100 environment since before WotLK. If I am accepted and at some point have the gear level and opportunity to raid with you, I will be prepared on time, every raid night, ready to give you guys 100%. I also think, after rereading this thread, that South of Heaven would be a lot of fun and a great place for me on Stormreaver (if you'll have me). I have no particular attachment to any of my characters so if there's a role you need and I can fill it, I'd be more than willing to give it my all. Oh yeah, and thanks again for the gear and the mount during that DS run. I don't play for gear but I really appreciated being given heroic gear during that run when I most definitely did not deserve it in terms of DPS. I hope all is well, cheers! Also, I got a new puppy. How could you say no after seeing that face?

Negido Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) We can talk physics?! Also, I too, am a Stephen. I like the way your name is spelled. Edited February 5, 2013 by Negido Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinderous Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Yes! I love talking physics, and it's nice to see another Stephen out there. I know far too many who spell it with a 'v'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morkgrim Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Also, I got a new puppy. How could you say no after seeing that face? Are you sure you want to put that challenge out there, cause as much as I love da puppies....well.... I love being a jerk even more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinderous Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Hahaha, no it was a joke not a challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashin Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Hey there Cin, That's very nice of you to have remembered us all this time. I hope everything with your family worked out. Normally we don't worry about all about someone's class when we consider social members. But I have to be honest - right now this guild has SUCH an overflow of rogues / monks / druids - it is very hard for me to contemplate admitting any new ones. Even our little alt runs have become heavy with AGI leather. It would require some sort of mass exodus before I'd be able to give you a raid spot even as a backup. Any thoughts? (Also cute puppy! Seems big for a puppy, tho..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinderous Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 I've played a rogue since beta and I can honestly say that the way the class plays (all three specs) at the moment is about the least fun/engaging I've ever known it to be. My only real attachment to my rogue is the achievement points and having always played a rogue. That being said I have a lot more fun playing on my mage (frost is somewhat viable again!) and my warrior. I think I enjoy tanking more than any other role I've played in WoW and am kind of bummed I didn't give it a shot until the end of Cataclysm. I honestly don't mind not raiding on my rogue. I noticed your posts on the WoW forums about needing a protection warrior and I know my tanking resume is about as lacking as it's possible to be, but as a player I am a very quick learner and I'm more than willing to put in the time and effort to gear out my warrior in order to raid (alts or backup raids are more than okay). I by no means feel that I am better qualified in terms of tanking experience or skill than any of the tanking apps I've read on here so far. I do know, though, that I will give it 100% and learn everything to the best of my ability. I raided in a server first guild as the melee class officer for nearly two years, I'm well aware of how demanding being competitive is and I believe I'm up for the challenge. (The pup is about 8 weeks old in that picture, she's nearly 6 months now and going on 50 lbs). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashin Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Achievement points are account wide now. Pick one between your mage and warrior for a social invite, and we can get it done this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinderous Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Ohh, tough decision. I will think about it while I'm at work today and let you know when I make up my mind. Thank you Ashin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merriwhizzle Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Cindy, I love the puppy. She's got such a pinchable face! What breed is she? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
