Guild Wars 2 ApplicationHow old are you? 32 In-Game Name? Union Do you have Teamspeak 3 and a mic? Yes What is your prefered playstyle? PvP What kinds of activities are you interested in? I am primarily interested in WvW, but am definitely interested in advancing in sPvP, as well as experiencing all of the PvE content. My Main in a lvl 80 Ele, and I have alts in every profession. Previous Gaming Experience: Before GW2, I was very active in EVE Online, and before that WoW. I have played all of the major MMOs, since EQ. Why did you choose XoO: I first became aware of XoO during my stint in WAR. I am currently looking for a active and organized guild, when I can do my part to make a proper contribution. Unfortunately, my current guild has become stagnant and inactive, while I am still very much excited about this game. XoO is well-known as a dedicated outfit, and I would be thrilled to count myself among your ranks. Before filling out this application, I spent several days researching dozens of guilds, across all of the NA servers. I genuinely believe that XoO would be a proper fit for me, and I do hope you agree. Why do you think you'll be a good fit? I am a dedicated and mature gamer. I have a deep understanding of GW2 WvW, and I am happy to fill in where I am most needed. I am easy-going, drama-free, and I genuinely enjoy making a contribution. I'm open to advice and instruction, and I'm always looking for opportunities to step-up my game. Localization: NA Do you have a referral? I do not. A little bit about yourself? I am 32 year old sociology researcher and reference specialist from Seattle, WA. I have a deep interest in online gaming, and communities. Recently, I was (still am, technically) )the administrator and community manager at http://www.38watch.com. Until the unfortunate demise of 38 Studios, I worked closely with the 38S/Big Huge Games community team, in order to grow a pretty rad independent Kingdoms of Amalur community. Unfortunately, the death of 38 Studios stunted my career as a fan site admin, but I was able to transfer my passion for gaming and community to GW2, and I feel pretty good about that. Additionally, I have experience in graphic design and web development. I'm big into music of all sorts. I like to go out to the pub, and I am a loyal Sounders FC supporter. I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have, regarding me or my application. Thanks a ton for your consideration. Cheers. Activity level? 20-40, depending on my real life responsibilities. I have logged over 420 hours since launch. Do you have a high speed internet connection and a good computer? Yes Have you applied to the GW2 usergroup? Yes
Hi Union, thank you for the application. I will send you a PM on these forums to arrange a time for an interview in Teamspeak. Please be on the lookout for a private message here and/or on the email that your profile is linked to.
It was rad chatting with you today, BSM. Thanks for all the great information, and for giving me the opportunity to hit the ground running. I'm looking forward to settling in, getting to know people, and doing my part to make a contribution to XoO. Cheers.
