1.2 Class: Hunter

2. Personal Information
2.1 First name: Roelof
2.2 Age: 30+
2.3 Nationality: South African(Living in Namibia)
2.4 Gender: Male

3. Additional Information
3.1 Why do you want to become part of the Moral Decay? I would like to join Moral Decay as it is a very decent guild with the raiding morals I got to know WoW with. I know Goldenheal and he speaks highly of you guys.
3.2 What do you feel you can bring to Moral Decay? Good attitude and experience not just in WoW but also in real life. I am mature enough to deal with normal guild and WoW banter as well as take a joke even on personal level.
3.3 Are there any Moral Decay Members who can vouch for you? (Preferable a minimum of 2 required.)
I am only aware of Goldenheal that is in the guild but I would not want him vouching for me as I see your policy if you guys don't like me I would not want him losing his spot. I don't know if any other players from our old raiding guild joined Moral Decay after they transferred so not sure if they changed names.
4. Future Raiding
Incase 4.1 is a no, you can ignore the rest of the questions
4.1 Do you want to be come a raider of Moral Decay in the future? Yes, I would love to join as a Trial so you can determine yourselves if I am worthy or not. I have changed mains to Hunter in Pandaria I use to play Mage in Cata when we were doing FL progression before I had to move from London to Namibia and miss out on Dragon Soul experience due to no Internet.
4.2 In what time you think you're raid ready? I think I am already equipped for normal modes and a few hc mode bosses. I should probably just go read up on the heroic tactics. I would like to mention that although gear plays a pivotal part of any raiding group, experience and skill can trump any decent gear player that does not know how to play. I believe that as I've seen it plenty of times in my raiding experience.
4.3 What is your raiding history with this character? Old -> New. Vanilla 40mans cleared everything except Naxx, TBC cleared everything except BT and SWP, WotLK Cleared Naxx ICC 25(before my main)(Took a break in ToC and Ulduar came back halfway through progression), Cata didn't raid just done a few bosses when the guild had everything on farm. Pandaria Raided with Cry More a bit MSV(hc), TES, ToT(11/12) was very casual. and SoO(9/14) (Have Garrosh experience with Necrosis when they did normal Progression). I am in a Casual raiding guild, so nothing to really write home about.

I trust you will take my application under good consideration even as a social I have fair qualities to offer the guild.

I hope to hear from you soon.

This is the social apply template. There's another one if you want to become a raider just beneath the one you just filled in. Wink

Exactly like ondbrad and yourself mentioned, you are ready to apply as raider. The raider application template got similiar questions except that they go deeper into you talent choices, pc speccs and on. So most of the things u can copy-paste and if you can fill the other points, that would be great Wink

1.1 Character name: Maldibion
1.2 Class: Hunter
1.3 Current Realm: Sunstrider

2. Personal Information
2.1 First name: Roelof
2.2 Age: 30+
2.3 Nationality: South African (Currently living in Namibia)
2.4 Gender: Male
2.5 Tell us about yourself: I am a 30+ married man that loves gaming. WoW takes preference atm. I live in Namibia which is located in South West Africa. Lived in London for 7 years before returning as my wife and I made the decision. Played WoW since 2005 and started my 40man raiding experience with Style raiding guild on Chromaggus. Ever since I have been hooked, but due to circumstances not been as hardcore as I would have liked.

3. Additional Information
3.1 Why do you want to become part of the Moral Decay? I would like to join Moral Decay as it is a very decent guild with the raiding morals I got to know WoW with. I know Goldenheal and he speaks highly of you guys.

4. Character Information
4.1 Armory link: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/sunstrider/Maldibion/simple
4.2 Preferred raiding spec(s): BM (atm) but can play SV as well.
4.3 Do you have other gear we should know about?. I like to collect cool looking transmog weapons but don't think that is what you meant.
4.4 Discuss your stat priorities. Well, to discuss it will make this post seem endlessly long. I will just say this. I like agility as main stat then depending on my spec swapping between Haste and Crit to which ever benefit my talents the most. I am fairly good at making sure I am hit/Exp capped. I also try to balance my stats that if the circumstance requires it to be able to switch spec and still be decent at my role as dpser.
4.5 Discuss your talent en glyph choices. Talents - to best assist my role as dps class, also for utility and survivability. Glyphs we don't really have awesome glyphs so I use the basic suggested ones Icy veins or elitist jerks although the latter's not been as great for me the last couple of years. (I will however mention my personal feeling towards {Spirit Bond} and Glyph of animal bond. With a unending static hot of 20-23k I believe its better then the other talents in that tier due to the healing effect) I also always have tomes in case i need to switch something which best assist the raid ofc, but not needed to change it much due to only raiding casually.
4.6 Discuss your rotation (or priority). BM - Kill shot, Kill Command, sting glaive toss, cobra shot, dire beast, focus fire on proc and AS to dump i suppose. I tend to work out my personal cd's eg glove enchant and racial to boost my dps as much as possible.
4.7 What are your maxed Professions and why? Jewel crafting and Engineering. JC because it was best in Wotlk and not planning on dropping it due to how expensive it is to relearn. engineering because its just awesome. Some of the things I have done due to my engineering made WoW worth playing when I felt down. Mc cap.. chicken trinket a few examples. and ofc the buffs it gives me in raids ;P
4.8 Do you have a combat log of a recent raid? Link: no but i use Recount but its usually minimized as I dont want to be in a race if I need to focus on important fights (although racing is fun too!!)

5. Raid Information
5.1 What is your raiding experience with this applying character or alt - formal main? Old -> New. Vanilla 40mans cleared everything except Naxx, TBC cleared everything except BT and SWP, WotLK Cleared Naxx ICC 25(before my main)(Took a break in ToC and Ulduar came back halfway through progression), Cata didn't raid just done a few bosses when the guild had everything on farm. Pandaria Raided with Cry More a bit MSV(hc), TES, ToT(11/12) was very casual. and SoO(9/14) (Have Garrosh experience with Necrosis when they did normal Progression). I am in a Casual raiding guild, so nothing to really write home about.
5.2 What resources do you utilize to remain informed about your class? Usually I use Icy Veins and in the past Tank spot for tactics etc. on our previous guild forum we had a guy doing that research for us during cata which made it alot easier. I am also a fan of Fatboss videos as they dumb it down so I only have to watch the first few seconds to understand a fight mechanics.
5.3 What add-on modules do you use and why? uhm If you mean UI I use Dominos, and xperl frames. Titan panel I like to check my gold intake on all my toons. also easy durability checker letting me feel more comfortable to do more tries before repairing.
5.4 What is your attitude on wiping in raids: Wiping due to progression no issues its part of the game. wiping due to ppl not focusing cba with slackers nor ragers!! I hate it when ppl start blaming and making things worse. I also think a Wipe on a farm boss is fine as ppl get to relaxed thinking its a cakewalk and then messing up the basics.. seen it happen laughed because i warned ppl and also made the mistake myself.
5.5 Are you willing to gear, gem, enchant and spec for PVE, bring all needed consumables to raids, and install the addons we ask you to? gear, gem, enchant, spec and addons ofc. "All consumables" my own buff food ofc I will need resources to help the whole guild, my wife makes a mean Noodle cart with mats ofc I usually do my own farming for flasks and I am almost never running low on anything i need to be buffed to the max for a raid.
5.6 Can you make at least 2 of our raid days from 19:30 until 24:00? (Wednesday, Thursday and/or Sunday) I can commit right now for 2 yes. As I mentioned I am busy with a new schedule and still need to sort things out before I can commit fully. I will be there for Wednesdays and Sundays Thursdays might be a problem but may change after getting the new schedule running.

6. Computer information
6.1 Do you have a stable computer that can handle 25man raiding? I don't know. I know its better then the one i used for 25man in wotlk and start of cata. much better stats etc. but not tested in on normal raids. not sure if LFR or 25flex is a decent comparison or not but I handle those with out a flicker of lag.
6.2 Do you have a stable internet connection? yes i do. BUT! when it rains my latency goes up to yellow status. If there is lightning its usually not wise to keep anything connected to power sockets in this country but I am able to play using my phones 4g and laptop battery if I am really desperate.
6.3 Post a screenshot of your user interface while in a raid setting (A battleground or LFR shot is fine as well):

7. Guild Information
7.1 Which other guilds have you been a member of? Latest -> Oldest Psychosis(Officers), Crymore, Injustice(Officer/RL), Invictus(Chromaggus, Class leader), Night Breed(Chromaggus, Ninja puller), With a Heary Hello(Chromaggus), Style(Chromaggus 1st raiding guild 40man and 25man start of TBC)
7.2 Please state the reason for leaving them: the Chromaggus guilds - Style to Night Breed Style transferred i did not join them so join WaHH to carry ons raiding did not like their r/l he was a dick plain and simple. Night Breed was where I hung out for fun during Karazhan farms, TK and SSC runs. the guild merged with another guild cant remember forming Invictus. Transferred with them to Sunstrider to play horde side for better progression worked awesome!! they all left Sunstrider to Kazzak in te time when I left the UK to come back to Africa. then these other guilds just to stay active. Knew an officer in Crymore who did not leave with the others. It was not much fun playing alone with a history like mine so joined Psychosis with friends was a lvl 20+guild a friend bought so we leveled it and changed the name to something better.
7.3 How many guilds have you been a member of the last year? 1
7.4 Are you applying to other guilds now?
No
8. Conclusion
8.1 Do you have any questions for us? Yes. Do you have class leaders or do you use forums for players to discuss class related issues or stuff?
Are your Raid Leaders open to suggestions when things seem to not going well in raids or progression?
8.2 Do you want to share something, that we didn't asked? Just because I am from Africa does not mean I am black!!

Crap I forgot about the screenshot I just don't know how to upload it ? any advice?
