How did you hear about us? One day, when I was just a young orc still full of wonder, I was sitting in Thunder Bluff- or maybe it was Undercity- waiting for the que because there was a healer shortage I saw the most beautiful paladin ever to wear quizzically revealing "armor". Wait a second, it was definitely Dalaran- yeah, it was probably on top of that lantern by the North bank where I like to sit. So the healer shortage was getting really serious because I had waited almost 30 seconds with no group (no one cares about your problems DPSs). I suspected that all the healers were hanging out in some shady corner of Undercity giving each other heal jobs. Where was I? Oh, right, well, so this paladin offered to give me a heal job and get me out of the que before I literally died of boredom (which happens at 1 minute 4 seconds- I know this because it has happened six times already). If I remember correctly his name was Fleshycake or something. Wait, I think I'm getting my paladins confused here- or am I? So anyways the timer on my que kept ticking away like some kind of digital doomsday clock that accidentally started counting up instead of down... so more like a regular, non-doomsday related, clock really. By the time I was done connecting the dots of this macabre riddle placed before me by an impassive creator the paladin informed me that he (or she- can we ever really know online? I mean, I have a priest with lady parts. Granted that priest is technically my girlfiend's character and I am technically playing on her account after mine was not hilariously hacked when I DID NOT LET MY NEIGHBOR USE IT AS THAT WOULD VIOLATE THE EULA and he DID NOT TRY TO BUY GOLD, AGAIN VIOLATING THE EULA and subsequently run-on-sentence in parenthesis) was going to celebrate his 14th birthday at a party taking place at the Chucky Cheese down on 13th street. I realized that while all of whatever all that is/was/will be was/is/will happen/ed/??? I had totally missed my shot at clicking accept to the que that started this crazy rollercoaster ride of intrigue. Overcome with confusion, frustration, and a little bit of indigestion from all that curry I made the IQ crushing mistake of letting my eyes pass over trade chat. Ten minutes and a lifetime of remorse later there was a moment of lucidity- most people who play WoW are bad at video games, grammar, and breathing through their nose. Once again overcome, this time with dread, my choice was between a life of mediocre gaming with people who think gemming parry "really evens out my incoming damage" or no longer procrastinating about the whole squid-in-the-hallway-situation I have going on here I did what any reasonably insane person would- I asked "what is the best guild on this server" and someone responded "VALOROUS", but I knew that was a lie, then someone said "Exodus". The End.


What aspect(s) of the game is your main focus? Winning. To be more specific- raiding, achievements, progression, and pvp.


Have you read and understood our guild charter? Any comments regarding it? Yes & No


What is your interest in joining Exodus, and why do you believe you're a good candidate? I would like to group/raid/play with people who care enough about the game they waste all their time playing to know how to play it right. I endeavor to know how to play the game well.


Are there any Exodus members you know who can speak on your behalf? My gut says maybe


Have you been in any other guilds on Cairne? Exodus, Strangulation, Giggly Schoolgirls


Have you ever leveled other characters to 80? Yes, lots.


Can your system handle 25-man raiding reliably? Yes.


What kind of raid/end game experience do you have (be specific)? I was the OT for the Cairne-Horde first killings of Blood Queen, Sindragosa, and maybe Valithria/Putricide.


What is your play schedule like? Can you consistently meet our 25-man raid times? Evenings/weekend. Yes.

Any other comments? Someone will probably ask about my gems/enchants suck. As a rule >=i232 gets enchanted and >=i245 gets epic gems, anything lower then that is just throwing mats away to me.

Filthy commies got their hands on him. He could be anywhere, even back in the salad again.

I am playing on another account now (as I mentioned in the OP), which would make that logistically difficult.

Well it is your tea party and of course you get to decide who gets to go, but a former member who had solid raid attendance during a period of numerous guild firsts being denied while people who cannot even follow the application instruction being accepted is puzzling to say the least.

Best of luck to you all in getting the Cairne-Horde first Heroic LK kill- please beat Valorous!
