Application - Venganza

[Venganza]

I have read the stickies

My characters are Plutonium a lvl 32/31rr Bright wizard that i enjoy a lot.. he has 4 of the Annihilator pieces waiting on him(everything but the shoulders), and my newest project a lvl 13/10rr Knight of the Burning Sun, which i intend to have as my main once he gets to tier 4.

As for myself, I'm in my 30's, got a mortgage and wife and kids etc, so my time online is a bit limited by obligations to family and some mild wife agro now and then. That said i average 20-30 hours of play a week, with the majority being weekend time. I have vent and have used voice com throughout my gaming time, way back to when all we had was scratchy roger wilco and vent wasn't invented yet.

My online gaming "career"
Started off with doom2 playing on a lan at college, moved on to Team Fortress Classic for a few years, meanwhile i enjoyed all the baldurs gate's on the side, and neverwinter nights when it came out. I was working 16 hour days when wow came out so it wasn't really an option, I prefer to start a mmo at the beginning, not in the middle with tons of people above me in lvl. I played a lot of Diablo 2. I played Dungeons and Dragons online for a year or so, played AoC from launch, meanwhile enjoying TF2 on the side. When AoC tanked i switched to War at launch and am loving it.

I play like a FPS player, meaning i use movement as well as decision-making to win fights. I can operate well within a team and have no problem following orders towards a common goal. I don't get battle locked on the first enemy i see nor do i run off to chase a kill.

I came to War with members of my DDO and AoC guild.. most of who joined Disorderly Conduct here on Ungrim, but since then most of them have moved back to DDO. I left Disorderly Conduct and joined Riven, a guild in your alliance, but have run into the same problems there that i had with Disorderly Conduct before i left, a lack of people to play with in the guild. Most nights i run with other guilds in the alliance, and when i log on in the afternoon i couldn't help but notice you guys would have 11-13 people while we had 1 or 2.. including me.

I look forward to playing more with you guys and hope you will consider adding me to your ranks.

I have a lot of respect for Eowin but haven't seen her active in a while. What's the situation in RIVEN atm? We have a policy of not recruiting from guilds, especially alliance guilds and just want a little clarification before we consider your app. You can PM it to me if it's of a private nature.

[Venganza]

I don't know what the situation is honestly. The last post on the riven forum was 3 days ago, and wasn't anything of substance. I do remember a lot of chatter on vent when i first applied about a lot of members working in Gamestop and playing the new WOW expansion.. i think that is where everyone went.


I figured you would have a policy of that sort about "poaching" people, i sent Eowin a pm before i posted here with my reasons for withdrawing my application, nothing personal in nature just a lack of people. I hope she understands, and i hope you guys will allow me to hang around and earn a spot. I'm hoping Eowin will come online so i can get it all ironed out, i don't want hard feelings.

Good app and post.

[Hoofhurr]

Aye,

OK. Well we can only take your word for it as we aren't a party to RIVEN's internal environment. Most of you guys are class and would be a great addition. That being said you still have to app. Make an effort to group with us in game, we operate on a voucher system meaning someone has to like you enough to take responsibility for your actions. Impress someone. :wink:

I'll see you in game. Cheers. :wink:

[Venganza]

See you in there.

One question; i don't see a roster page or list of alts(none that is public anyhow). Who should i look for in tier 2 when i'm on my Knight?

[Snowreap]

the Realm War guild roster is public, but it's probably easier to get on Ventrilo when looking for a group.

doh! thx, i'll idle in vent tonight for sure.

[Venganza]

just wanted to thank warren(sorry dunno who yer main is), ganymeed(ditto), and zens for the T3 group today.

Im still out here in unguilded-land and still working on grouping with the guild as much as i can. Tough with you guys pushing tier 4 so hard and me trying to lvl my knight, though i had some fun in the late night fort raid tonight on plutonium. Looking forward; i'm at lvl 28/24 on the knight so i'll be there soon, and i'll keep my eye out for any purge on the edges of tiers 3 and 4. See you in there!

[Hoofhurr]

I was wondering where you disappeared to! We have another crop of players pushing alts through T3 now but yes most of us are in T4. I saw you on Plut yesterday and it was good to rvr with you. Keep trying to group with us.

Welcome aboard!
