I find this whole posting mildly disturbing as I can find no reason to read all 36 pages sober. Sounds like a fun group though so I guess I'll be signing up.
One question though... How do you weed out the riffraff from WOW and Guildwars?

We do what any sane person does to weed out the undesirables, we ask them what they'd do in a zombie apocalype
That and we have former members of the Iraqi Republican Guard show up at your home to spend a little one-on-one time with you. You know... to get to know you better.
Most of them give you some song and dance about how they have done things they are not proud of or how they may have hurt a man before. Just stick with the program, answer honestly, and you will keep all your fingers.

I model my applicant interrogation style after Joe McCarthy's stellar communist outing of the late 1950s.
"Are you now or have you ever been a member of the WoW community?"
"Do you know other members of the WoW community that are playing this game in secret, attempting to undermine it with their need to 'raid endgame content' and 'grind faction'? Reveal them, and it will go better for you."
Y'know. Stuff like that. They usually break pretty fast.
Is there an age requirement. If there is............you'll probably see me doin' a *sigh*.
And if there has already been this question on this thread..... Sorry. 36 pages would do my head in.:D
*sigh* Maybe I should just lie and say Im 5 years older than I am to make the requirement. *grumble* .......stupid 13y/o's making bad names for the others.......*grumble*
It isn't completely crap - it just isn't as good as Regen, or really even Invulnerability. I briefly toyed with just remaking my main to go End/Rec and take Regen, but I'm just going to stick it out and live with Defiance.
Really good job. You guys sound interesting. Is vent required? Was in a guild in Wow that only communicated through vent so I missed a lot of what was going on (I have vent, but every other word in their server was cursing or something, which I don't mind but don't want to hear 24/7). Just curious.
It isn't required though it is recommended, especially for team stuff like pvp or instances*
I'm going to tell you as an applicant that it is mandatory for PvP or instances, but not anywhere else. And even then, the ability to talk is not important. You just need to be able to listen to coordinate with the rest of your team.
Truth. Also, though, I just find that there's a point where people start to get something of a perspective on life, and become more interesting to talk to, and that age is around 25.
Likewise, at 34 I'm confident I'm not as worldly or informed as perhaps I'll be at 45, but that's why I've built a guild basically structured around people my age. Mostly in their 30s, with a few folks in their 20s and some folks in their 40s. That way, most of us can at least get the same cultural references.
I rather enjoy it, but it definitely encourages/works best with a turtleing play style. Block a bit to let Defiance build up, then kick every things butt. Also gives you bursts of energy, and the play style works even better paired with Retaliation.
All that said, you are right. Even nerfed Regen with Super Rec is better.
Hmmm.... hmm, hmm, hmmmm..... You guys sound more and more interesting all the time.... You may just have a big ol' Booberella application in your hands. "/perv repellent" That being said... I'm a guy LOL. "/end perv repellent"
1) Use the standard one (like the one I have).
2) You could get one from Soul-Journ (since he offered to make one)
3) You could post a sig request on the guild forums
Yeah you are right - Wild Butch "Holliday" Earp the Kid would be much better name for an alt.
Uhm..maybe I'm wrong on that. Wouldnt be the first time. Ok ok stop hitting me its an awful idea. *pouts*
What kind of bump is that? You gotta contribute something witty, or at least have some ATTEMPT at being witty! Just having a blatant bump completely defeats the purpose of the OP(setting us apart from all the OTHER recruiting threads).
With that said, this is a blatant bump. Yes, I'm a hypocrite(and apparently a condescending synonym for donkey, as I was told a few days ago in vent).
The ones most people are using are in our guild's Champs forums. Let me know if you don't have access there, and I'll hook you up.
As to the new people interested in joining us, two gentle reminders:
1. I thank you for tossing an app in over at our official forums, but I also encourage you to get an invite into the super group immediately, or even prior to the application. You can be a member of the game guild (WildCards) without having an app in; the app is really more for you to join our gaming community if you choose to do so. I know that occcasionally confuses people, so I wanted it restated.
2. We have a very specific sense of humor, we are a casual guild, we have no gaming requirements but we DO want members who are friendly, active in guild chat, and willing to help a fellow guildmate. I point this out because we've had a few applicants join the guild them promptly "disappear"; they log in, keep to themselves, and rarely ever speak up in guild chat (or join us on vent). While I have no problem with people wanting "quiet time" (Lord knows I wish I had more), I'm kinda not interested in people who spend 90% of their time in this guild never socializing.
So, the tl;dr version of that is: go back and read it, you lazy @$#%s!
This is why it is good to live away from the coastal cities, since they are always getting destroyed by rage attacks. It never pays to live in Tokyo, or LA.
On a side note after seeing Dao's signature block, I am inspired to make a 70's Disco themed character. I shall call him Disco Lemonade.
Yes sir works like a charm, though when you say fun environment I picture one of those Ball pits for kids. Then I thought hmm if unrepentant had a ball pit it would be sticky and nobody likes a sticky ball pit.

I don't swing that way. Not even for a Swede. A Belgian, maybe, but not a Swede.

What is the correct answer to this? I know I always just throw the halfling at them and run.
"Are you now or have you ever been a member of the WoW community?"
"Do you know other members of the WoW community that are playing this game in secret, attempting to undermine it with their need to 'raid endgame content' and 'grind faction'? Reveal them, and it will go better for you."
Y'know. Stuff like that. They usually break pretty fast.
That was not the correct answer.
And if there has already been this question on this thread..... Sorry. 36 pages would do my head in.:D

But we only take people under 25 grudgingly, so they'd better be really fascinating, or put out like Lindsay Lohan at a coke dealer's convention.

Yeah people younger than me suck!
*Note I'm being totally hypocritical as I don't have it myself :rolleyes:

Either drop an application on our forums or harrass @dao_jones ingame (technically you can harrass any of us but Dao likes being pestered)
So true. What happened to the good old days when....wait...never mind...that was las vegas 92'.
Anyway, new sig - opinions?
Depends what you want, either you can:
1) Use the standard one (like the one I have).
2) You could get one from Soul-Journ (since he offered to make one)
3) You could post a sig request on the guild forums
That is fine as long as you don't make an alt named "Butch".
Uhm..maybe I'm wrong on that. Wouldnt be the first time. Ok ok stop hitting me its an awful idea. *pouts*

Oh does wildcards name relate to the superhero powers novels? was a long time ago
Oh noooooooooooo! You have doomed us all! DELETE THIS POST BEFORE DAO SEES IT!
Every time someone asks that question, Dao dies a little inside.
TOO LATE! MECHA-DAO HAS RISEN AND IS OFF TO TERRORIZE TOKYO!
GRRARGH! RAWWR! SNARL! *stomp stomp stomp smash*
