You:

Q: How old are you?: 18
Q: Nationality?: Irish
Q: Pre-TBC raid experience: Killed everything apart from 6/12 in Naxx

Q: Do you try and keep up to date with current theory on your class? Yes


Presentation:

* Do you have any other open applications with any other guilds at this time? No
* Why do you want to join Ransom? Good progress, the people I have talked to have been nice
* People in Ransom that you know? Not properly
* IRL interests, hobbies, work, girl/boyfriend, school etc: None really xD
* Why should we consider recruiting you? (Sell yourself... This is an important question): I'm a skilled DK (s5/6 Gladiator) and i'm dedicated to improving my character. I'm always looking to improve my DPS, if I have to spend 200g for a 2 strength increase, I won't complain. I'm punctual, will be there on time and won't ninja d/c if i'm getting tired or whatever. I'm a focused raider, I don't alt-tab.

Can you log out in your PVE gear? Currently you have PVP gear on. Also, do you use any threat meter addon? Normally threat isn't a huge issue with our tanks but it is important for a few fights like Princes and LDW.

Oh sorry yeah should be ok now. You might see some 25 spell pen gems in places, they won't be there in raids ofc.

Don't currently have a threat meter but that can be fixed

Just sent my rogue mate over to apply, I can tell you that he's a very dedicated person irl and in game. He puts his all into raiding and has been no.1 DPS in pretty much every raid i've been in with him. If you decide not to take me in, I would strongly recommend taking him.

Seems I can't add links without being a member. My TBC/vanilla char was called Stepback on the realm Magtheridon if you wanna check him out

Why the fuck do you have glyph of pestilence instead of Icy Touch one? Your dps is way higher with that.
Why have Spell Pen in your gear? It's in your weap, PVE legs and PVE Belt.

If it was up to me you would be declined.

Hey There!

First of all thank you for the apply! A few things I need to mention before I tell you my decision. First of all we look for a minimum requirement of 12/12 ICC normal and a few heroics, this you do not have. We also ask for applicants to have (as a general rule) full 264 gear, if lower to be BiS, this you do not have. We ask applicants to spend time and effort on their application which seems only fair if you want us to spend the time and effort organising and progressing with you, this you have not done. ALso as a final note your hunter is a level 70 twink alt which you clear through TBC content, something you did not mention but rather lead us to believe thast you cleared the content when it was the end game content. For these reason I am going to say

Declined

Thanks, Hlp

That simply isn't true. I'd also like to point out that your application template doesn't leave alot of room to put effort in.
