    How old are you?
    24
    Do you have Teamspeak 3 and a microphone?
    Yes
    Do you understand that Teamspeak usage is required at ALL times?
    Yes
    In-Game Name?
    poopstix
    Why did you choose XoO?
    When I was researching outfits, I was drawn to XoO because you guys have shown that you can be effective, even in small numbers. This is a characteristic I appreciate about the Vanu on Waterson. I also like that you are totally dedicated to Vanu; I'm pretty biased myself :D
    What can you bring to the table?
    I'm poopstix. My name is juvenile because my regular tag and all variations I cared about were taken. I also wasn't sure if I'd like this game enough to continue playing it. It turns out that I did, and I stuck with my poopstix account. If you don't want to call me poopstix over the mic, then call me by my usual name (and real name) Jerry. I also used to play WWII Online (Battleground Europe) if any of you are familiar with that :)

    I play light assault almost exclusively. I love infantry combat; and I love the mobility of the light assault class. I am BR 22, and have always played as a lone wolf. I feel that, as an outside observer, I've been able to learn a thing or two about covert infiltration and distraction as a light assault. For example, in some large battles I've managed to recapture certain points by myself, which draws the enemy away from the heat of battle. Sometimes this allows the Vanu to move forward. Such simple strategies don't always work, and I feel as if I could be more effective if I were in a group of organized teammates.

    I am willing to learn how to cooperate in a team to further support the VS. I will gladly acquire essential certs such as Sunderer AMS and squad beacons. Additionally, I'm thinking about working on my Infiltrator class. The first item on the list is a bolt action rifle.

    As for certs I do have (if you're interested):
    Jump Jets 4/5
    Drifter Jets 2/5
    C4 2/2
    Advanced Shield Capacitor 4/5
    Nova Shotgun + extended mag + slugs (working on improving my aim with this atm)
    Localization:
    North America
    Activity level?
    I haven't really paid much attention. I recently bough a 3-month membership though, so I'm planning on playing regularly.
    Please list all your alts on Waterson
    My only Waterson profile is poopstix. The other two alts I have are on Mattherson. I almost never use those.
    What are your normal play times? (be general ex 6pm -10pm)
    Usually anytime between 7 PM - 3:00 AM on weekdays. On weekends I may or may not be on all day long.
    What is your favorite class to play?
    Light Assault
    What is your favorite vehicle to use?
    I don't use many vehicles. Flash maybe?
    You’re standing at a Sunderer, an enemy tank approaches over the nearest hiiltop. What do you do?
    First, I spot the tank with Q.

    Depending on how far away the tank is and how much cover I have, I'd try to get close enough to drop some C4. If the Sunderer is in jeopardy, I usually switch to engineer and start repairing, hoping that someone will take care of the tank. A third option, which I would only consider since I'm usually a lone wolf, is to just ignore the tank and move forward with whatever I was doing (assuming the tank wasn't hindering me).

    Bear in mind that I have only ever played by myself. While I usually act in my own interest, I stated earlier that I am completely willing to be part of a team. That means acting in the best interests of the team. This could mean switching to a heavy and using rockets to pester or even try to destroy the tank in that scenario.
    You’re standing at a Sunderer, an enemy air-unit approaches in the distance. What do you do?
    I spot it, and hope that it doesn't kill the Sunderer. I suppose I could get on the Sunderer's guns to try to take it out. Given the way I usually play, I'm rarely in a position to take out enemy aircraft.
    In your opinion, which vehicle is most important to the game?
    I believe Sunderers are the most important. Infantry are the most important units because they can capture bases. Sunderers are the most important vehicles because they allow infantry to attack with less downtime, making them even more effective.
    In your opinion, which class is most important to the game?
    To me, it seems like engineers are the most useful. They repair vehicles, which are important to an assault; and they repair MAXs, which are important in many scenarios (AA, AI, AV). They also set up turrets, which can make certain paths completely unavailable to enemy infantry.

    Of course, this doesn't mean that it's the only class that matters. All of them are certainly important.
    Which of these traits most accuratly reflects your approach to gaming.

    The next step in the application process will be for you to get onto our Teamspeak server and then hop into game with us. Once you're in-game We'll get you an Outfit invite and set you to recruit status. After a few play sessions we'll complete the interview process and you'll become a full member.

    I have sent a PM to you with the information for our Teamspeak server, log in and look for one of our Planetside 2 Command Team, any of whom should be able to help you further.
    Command Team: Daibar, imb0r3d, Paramecium, LordRegis, 660/12, Eska, Lailana, Q, UmbraUrsa, Samjizz, Chrisbeebops
