Feel free to send me a mail, and it’s my msn as well (and I’m always online). So if you want to ask me something just add me on MSN or send me a mail, if I won’t answer in wow I will surely do it on MSN.
Character Name:
Altires
Armory link:
http://armory.wow-europe.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Bronze+Dragonflight&n=Altires
If you get me in PVP-gear (you’ll know…), then just smack me a mail in or out of game.
Real Life Age:
16. I know you might be to young for being in an end game guild, but I’d like that you looked away from m aged and judge me as the person and player I am, because I know that I can play better and be more mature then many 20-30 years old.
Class:
Mage. I’ve been playing mage since I started playing World of Warcraft, almost three years ago now. During the time I’ve both been playing Priest, Rogue and Paladin as well, but in the end I’ve always come back to mage. I guess I love the way of doing maximum dps while casting frosty spells. 
Character Spec:
19/0/42. This specc is more or less a deep frost specc, with pet, with the essential stuff I need from arcane. Not much to say about the specc tbh. I’m willing to try all sorts of frost specc’s (and I have tried a lot of them), if your mages think I’m all out swambeling.
I’ve been trying out Arcane, but didn’t like it, and I never really digged fire. Frost I am and frost I’ll stay (unless the boss fight requires something else ofc).
Profession/Skill Level:
Enchanting: 375
I’m maxed out with most of the reputation recepies, and some other rare ones as well. Though I’m missing things like Mongoose, Executioner, etc.
Herbalism: 375
This is a Profession I choose when I was bored of never being able to max out tailoring. It bring in some nice money and it’s easy to always keep the herbs for the flasks you need.
Fishing: 375
Don’t ask my why. I was ill and extremely bored…
Cooking: 375
The chef is in the house. A really nifty profession to level together with fishing, and also good to have if you want to make some cheap food buffs, or being able to make a dinner if your friends come over. 
Are you able to make the raid times?
Monday: Is sadly impossible for me, since I’m actually a scout, and that’s my meeting time.
Tuesday: Count me in.
Wednesday: I’ll be there.
Thursday: Yepp yepp.
Friday: Maybe some times, but most likely I’m doing something with my friends, being social irl. But it’s not impossible that I’ll raid sometimes.
Saturday: Same as Friday really.
Sunday: Mostly I’ll be there.
To sum up my raiding I will probably be there at 3-4 raids a week, sometimes more, sometimes a bit less, but not much.
When I’m raiding I’m always as serious as needed, using pots, food buffs, etc etc. Always well prepared and ready to raid for my guild!

What is your raiding experience?
Pre Tbc:
Pre tbc I played only mage in a guild called Brave Heart, on the server Hellscream.
I did the entire MC, ZG, AQ20 and Onyxia. I also did the first boss in both BWL and AQ40. At that time I wasn’t a very frequent raider, but I started my raidleading career in the late pre tbc days, in ZG. The Guild was called Blood Pac and was run by me and some in game friends, whom I sadly left to play on a priest in Tbc.
TBC:
First of I played mage in Brave Heart, were I did the entire kara and the first boss as a co-guildleader. Together with an older more experienced raid leader I really learned a lot about how to handle a guild and how to manage with different situations, that you need to lead and to be a good raider.
Then a friend offered me to co-play with him on a priest, lvl 60. I was kinda bored of mage and longed for a change, so I accepted the offer.
The priest was called Xyndria, Bronze Dragonflight.
I levelled her, geared her up in normal instances, and joined the guild Strife. Were some others started the second kara group. After just a couple of weeks did the entire 2nd group leave because of an argue with the guild leader of Strife. We left and mage a new guild, Ghost Council.
Quite fast did the new guild master get his eyes open for me and saw that I was able to lead a group, and soon I was a Co-Guild Master together with the DPS warrior Dragonar.
Sadly 4 mounth ago, my friend didn’t want to have me playing on the priest anymore, so I jumped back to my mage, whom I fast transferred to Bronze Dragonflight.
In Ghost Council I progressed through this content as a raidleader:
Kara: 9/9
Za: 6/6 (+bear mount)
Gruul: 2/2
Magtheridon: 1/1
SSC: 6/6
TK: 3/4 (that’s right, we never did keal’threas, you might know it from the realm forum)
MH: 5/5
BT 8/9
Outdoor: 1/2 (only kazakk)
What are your past guilds and why did you leave?
Blood Pact: Leveling and first raiding guild pre TBC, loved the members but I needed some new challenges.
Brave Heart: One of the best guilds I’ve been in. Was a part leader, but when I came back from vacation last summer, I saw that it had all fallen apart when I wasn’t there.
Ghost Council: The guild in witch I’ve gotten all my tbc experiences. But the atmosphere has all changed into something not really many people in the guild like. So when I took the courage to tell our new main raid leader about this, he got pissed ‘couse I criticised him. He left and with him our Shadow priest follow.
This made a lot of the officers angry on me, so when I logged on some days ago I saw myself kicked. So now I’m seeking a new guild, were I can be liked and welcomed with a big smile, and I think I found right in Nightfall.
Do you use addons to help maximize your dps? If so, which ones?
The addons I use is:
UI:
Bongos
X-pearl
Easy minimap
CT-buffmod
Scrolling Combattext
Helping addons:
Decursive
Deadly Boss Mod
Omen-Threat Meter (and I know how to use it ^^)
If you want me to get any other addons I’d gladly get them.
Will you be able to maintain a MINIMUM of 70% raid attendance ?
Believe that wouldn’t be impossible, I guide you to what I wrote in the:
Quote (”Altires”)
Are you able to make the raid times?
Will you come prepared to raids with 2 flasks, 4 charges of oil, and 1 stack of buff food / bandages?
Of course. This shouldn’t imo be a question on an application, but I know it’s needed. I’ve seen too many people not using flasks, oils and food buffs.
I myself use:
-Flask of Pure Death
-Superior Wizard Oil
-Blackened Basilisk
Are you familiar with ALL the strats for BT / Hyjal?
I’ve been raid leading on them, I have to be. Try me if you like, I should know basecly every tbc tactics (not SW) by heart.

Do you ever have latency issues, or do you suffer from disconnects regularly?
Never. Always smooth, if it’s not, I know how to close background programs, and in worst scenario entire windows, to ONLY run world of warcraft. So this won’t be a problem.
Do you ever suffer from unstable framerates that cause you to freeze or run in place?
I’m down to 5 on RoS, witch is the worst I’ve been on. Usually around 20-40.
Are you applying for any other guilds?
No, not planning to do either, maybe if I get declined here, I’ll be looking to x-realm. But probably I’d quit playing if I can’t come in in Nightfall.
Who do you know in Nightfall?
I don’t actually know anyone that good in Nightfall, but I hope I’ll be recognized by a few in here. And over the time I’ve known some players in here, and always had a good eye for you guys.
Do you play on Friday/Saturday?
Oh, never seen this question on any application sheets before ^^. Usually I am playing, but don’t count on me to be online.
Anything else you care to mention?
Well I’ve not been able to speak anything about myself as person, so I guess I’d get some talking about it here.
I’m a 16 years old guy who’s living at home with my mother and my younger sister. My parents are divorced, so sometimes it might be a problem for me being exactly in time to the raid due to me being at my dad’s place, but with your raiding times I think I’ll make it most of the times.
Otherwise I just started in what we in Sweden call “Gymnasiet”, witch has nothing to do with gymnasium. It’s more like a high school for people from the age 16-19. The step before the university. I’ve chosen a rather hectic subject, witch leads to loads of homework, and sometimes I might have to skip one or two raids because of it, but not frequently.
So to sum it up. I’m a nice Swedish fellow, who’s just totally down in Wow. I love to play it, but even more to socialize on Ventrilo/Team Speak with friends from all over Europe. My English is fluent, both written, spoken and understood.
Any more question?
Feel free to ask them here, contact me over wow or over msn/mail!
Best Regards
Altires, The frosty Gnome
