Character Info
Information about the character.
Character Name: 
whoretarded (While we do not criticize names too badly, names can reflect the player)
Race: 
Night Elf
Character Class: 
Rogue
Character Level: 
lvl 70
Total play time at level 70: 
7 das (Again, we do not judge the time played, but do not ask to end game raid because you just turned 70)
Total play time: 
12 days 3 hours (as above)
Average play time per week: 
50, or sumthin (Spelling with a general average as well as days played)
Good computer/internet connection?: 
Yes
What is your average latency?: 
How do I check that (Lower right hand corner with a basic UI, this matters for raiding :) )
Server you are currently on: 
Gorgonnash
How long have you been on the above server?: 
A while (We do love detail)
Link to your armory profile: 
http://www.downfallguild.org
Raiding
What talent build do you use to raid?: 
I use assn, becuz i pvp. (Make this detailed. Also, if you raid a very unusual spec, please justify your build with numbers or theorycraft. We LOVE theorycraft.
What role are you most comfortable/geared playing?: 
DPS
Tell us a little about how your class contributes to a raid.: 
I hit stuff. (Yes a rogue is easy to justify, but a little detail about the mechanics of your class allows us to better understand your effort and intelligence as you play.)
Would it be a problem if you had to wait 3 weeks or 3 months to get into raid?: 
I wait I gues, but liek if I dont git in leik 3 weks I am out. (Please be honest with this section, I would advise you check the next few months on your availability for our raids as well. Lying about if you can wait for raiding or when you can be on does not help either group. We need dedicated players. Casual raiders are frowned upon; casual as you will raid when you feel like it.)
List the instances you have experience in, and the farthest you have been in that instance.: 
I mob grin 2 70. (Oh no, no, no, no. Please try out all the instances, Blizzard amde them for our enjoyment. Also, I strongly suggest doing heroics. You accumulate badges as well as gear that can be helpful for Karazhan through Serpentshrine Cavern/Tempest Keep. We do not necessarily care about the end game instances, although they are pluses. We prefer people who generally put effort into heroics and mid level instances and can do them with our guildies.
What is your favorite 25-man BC Boss encounter, and why?: 
All (Detail will always be rewarded, but also discuss how you utilize your class to their peak in the above instances. Discuss the challenge or potions/elixirs you bring to maximize your potential.)
What is your least favorite 25-man BC Boss encounter, and why?: 
dunno (generally discuss as the previous answer, but please say the negatvies and how you try to deal with them.)
General Questions
List your pertinent alts, as well as their classes and levels: 
I hav alts N want them in end game. ( While we do have runs for alts to get geared, many of us do not like the notion of gearing up alternative characters in raid. Although, there are moments when a healer or tank can be useful for a given situation. Such a course may allow you to experience end with a new appreciation!)
Is this app for your main alone, or would you like to bring alts over as well?: 
I'd like to bring some alts over too
Why should we recruit you?: 
I m gud (Detail, discuss postives. Also, if you have a bad history in other guilds that we learn about, please discuss how you would better yourself. Detail how you can make our community better and how you can contribute raid, 5-man, lore, or otherwise.)
Why have you chosen to apply to Downfall?: 
U hav end gam. (Yes, we understand that we are into end game, but we prefer you do not leave a tight community for the lust of purple pixel gear. If you are new, then you have little experience and that is fine. Having troubles with a previous guild is also understandable. We do not cater to people who are in it for loot.
What do you expect to get out of Downfall membership?: 
Loots and sh*t. (Be truthful, and hopefully you are interested in a fun and social experience with a lot of cool people.)
How do you feel you will contribute to the downfall community?: 
Killing stuff. (Oh no, we mean to the people of our guild, please discuss how you would contribute to the evolution of our social development.)
Do you have any references in Downfall?: 
No (eh, I have nothing for this, knowing people is nice though, but not required.)
How long do you intend to stay in Downfall?: 
Forever. (We like good and committed people, we hope you would like to stay for the long run.)
What things might cause you to leave?: 
Not raiding. (We can understand that our community may not be for everyone. I certainly hope you do not leave for the search of loot or due to problems with our inner workings. I believe and problem can be solved with a bit of communication.)
If you are applying to raid, which nights can you raid?: 
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday
Sunday
Anything else you would like to add?: 
Discussion ideas to better our guild, new ideas are always welcome.
Are you going to burn out?: 
Yes
What timezone are you in?: 
PST
How often do you think you would have to miss raid?: 
Nvr. (Things happen, please discuss a few thoughts or concerns for future events. Forethought is a lost skill.)
What might the typical reasons for missing raid be?: 
As above.
Read everything here: http://www.downfallguild.org/loot Does that seem fair?: 
wut? (READ THIS LINK!)
If Shihli tells a joke (good or bad), will you laugh?: 
No
Your ass, or a hole in the ground?: 
My ass
UI
How do you feel about mods, particularly in a raid setting?: 
Stock Ui. (A suggestion, now, I am not the ebst to discuss mods, but I put effort into visiting Curse gaming and using Wowaceupdater more frequently. They are very valuable tools for your raiding or playing experience.)
Please post a screenshot of your UI: 
noobs.JPG
Are you willing to change mods that don't interface well with ours in raid?: 
Yes
Personal
How long have you been playing WoW?: 
Discuss your wow story lol
How old are you?: 
12 (Age really doesn't matter as long as you are pro.)
Tell us about yourself.: 
Hobbies, interests, science(?), (Say whatever you wish, try to minimize crudeness.)
Are you in school or working?: 
skewl (Misspelling school is bad here, we gave you a hint.)
Any other significant hobbies?: 
Discuss even more :D
What Country/State do you live in?: 
US

Also, on the section about 25-MAN BOSS encounters, you don't need to put in anything about pvp, bg's, 10-mans, 5-mans or otherwise.  You can tell that this is what we mean because the question says "25-MAN".
