My main raiding character's name is Bblgumgramps. (bubbagum is my very poorly funded alt) I'm not a very experienced player when it comes to old content because I started playing the game shortly before WotLK came out.
I am ashamed to say that throughout WotLK I have been through quite a few guilds. I enjoy progression but I do not like the mentality of any guild I have been in. In my gaming experience I value quality and friends more than anything so when a guild becomes full of drama or players compete between eachother more than try to down a boss I lose interest in playing with them.
Today I was told by one of the HotC members that he liked what he saw of my performance and would like me to apply. After I learned more about the friendly and social qualities of the guild I was sold.
My name is Tylor. I am a senior in high school and trying to get into a four year university. WoW is just one of my hobbies but I take my hobbies seriously. (I've also played drums for 5 years.)
I've had my share of hard mode content in Ulduar, alot of it with Clarity (Tooths, another applicant was tanking it all btw).

This is just some basic info about me, I will be talking to all of you and hopefully playing with some of you soon to get to know you all better.
Have a nice night!

I had the chance to play with Bblgumgramps in ToC 25 today. The guy impressed me. High DPS and low amount of time kissing dirt. I don't know him very well but i suggested he app. Lets start the process and get to know you.

In the little time that I did talk with him he seemed a nice, mature person and genuinely interested in becoming part of HotC, not just in raiding with us.

Bblgumgramps, our app process can be longer than most. I encourage you to stick it out. It is worth it. Say hi in /hotchat and track down Theroc, Anilyn, or Mikevbrandt in game. Also feel free to chat in the shoutbox. It is pretty dead except for midday during the week, but stop in and say hi if you get a chance.

Grammer and spelling have never been a factor in recruitment. They let me and Tass in :D

Did I miss something in my post?
Usually I try to keep my grammar correct while typing because I am in the process of typing my personal statements. When I get in the habit of typing sloppily it makes grammar and spell check take a long time.

I don't think your grammar was terribly incorrect in the above post. I think when people don't see double spacing in between paragraphs, the information just becomes harder to read.

That being said, there were probably a few commas you missed. I believe the grammar police will let that slide :)

Speak for yourself, math boy!

This app tells us nothing about your toon. I am not going to copy and paste your name into the armory to see your class and gear.

Too lazy to press ctrl+c and Ctrl+v?

I apologize. After reading the required thread for applicants and speaking with Saime, I was under the impression that this application was more about personality and getting to know people. I figured you would all see my class and gear in raid.
Bblgumgramps:
Gnome Mage
2606 Wow-heroes score
gemmed for spell power of course
Most of his raid achievements are from the beginning hard modes of ulduar.

The gear I have now is all from ToC pugs and leftover ulduar gear I haven't been able to replace.

Bubbagum:
Draenei Shaman
2485 Wow-heroes score
in the process of gemming for haste
My raid experience while healing started just before ToC came out so I haven't bothered with ulduar.

This gear is anything I can pick up in pugs.


If there's any info you still want just ask here everyone :)
Also, I like forum chatting so post if you'd like to talk out of game sometime.

It is his job to provide us with the information. He is applying to us.

His initial application was fine. I am not too lazy to copy and paste his name into armory, and he looked to be intelligently specd. I also spoke with Bblgum in game, was happy with the conversation overall, and I was generally pleased with what I heard from raiders who were in the 10-man with him last night.

See you at 7 tonight, Bbl!

Bbl seems like a nice guy, and impressed me last night with his dmg. He has my vote.

Excellent performance last night and got along very well with our raid members.

Bbl, send a PM to MVB to discuss the next steps - he'll give you a PSA about what we expect of our membership and hopefully we can move forward with the application.

Thanks,
John

Hi Bbl.

Let me know if you're available for 11/8 raid.

Thanks,
John

I ran bbl through a heroic OK with the bot army. He made it seemless, and out dps'd the chubot by a nice margin (although having my fishing rod equipped my have skewed my results a bit).

Just tossing it out there for the record however, bbl - good guy.

Theroc, I sent you a pm telling you I would not be able to make the raid. I'm not sure if you got it because I didn't get a reply.
I also sent MVB a pm but didn't get a reply. I'm starting to think my pms didn't send...

Saime

haha, they don't often reply to PM's. Nothing personal, they just don't.

Bubblegum

That's a relief actually.
I was honestly worried that they didn't get the pms.
