Q) What MMO do you currently have the most interest in playing? If Warhammer, which branch? (Destruction, Order or both.)
A) Lord of the Rings.

Q) Have you read our Code of Conduct and Forum Rules?
A) Yes, I have.

Q) Are you at least 18 years of age? [yes, no, actual age is optional]
A) Yes (39). I know what you're thinking......geezer!

Q) Have you read at least one of our example applications? [this is highly recommended]
A) Yes. I read three.

Q) Do you have any relatives or friends currently in the guild, or were you recruited by someone? If so, who?
A) No, I have no relatives or friends that are in Hammerfist. Actually, no one I know even plays LOTR. I've tried to get my wife interested but no luck so far.

Q) Name: [planned in game/forum name]
A) My LOTR forum name is Kianos. In game I try to create character names that begin with Celt or Kelt. I'm of Scots/Irish descent so what can I say....I love the Kelts!

Q) Gender: [female, male]
A) Male.

Q) What region do you live in? [City and State is fine.]
A) Augusta, GA.

Q) How did you hear about us: [friend, another member, forum, google, other mmo's, etc]
A) I saw the recruiting post on the forums.

Q) Are you currently in any other AoC, LOTRO, or Warhammer guilds?
A) No.

Q) Have you applied to any other guilds?
A) No.

Q) We like to have fun, how's your sense of humor? Not so good? Good? You're a standup comedian you say?
A) I like to think that I have a great sense of humor. I tend to be quite a joker once I get to know people.

Q) What other MMO's have you played if any: [Acquired a few skills from some other games eh? Tell us about them]
A) I also play Dungeons and Dragons Online. I love the game but the grind has become too much. Running a quest 20-40 times in order to aquire an item takes away from the enjoyment of the game. The lack of that grind in LOTR (so far, I'm lvl 45), and the great content, is what draws me to the game.

Q) What makes you want to join us over some of the other guilds? [let us know!]
A) From what I have gathered from the forums and visiting your website, The Hammerfist Clan seems to be an extremely well organized and active guild. I looked at other guilds/kinships on the Brandywine Forums but these two things caught my attention about Hammerfist. It appears that a lot of time and effort has been put into making this a great guild.

Q) Please tell a little about yourself, aside from gaming. Perhaps some hobbies, about your work, favorite story etc.
A) I work from home as a system tester for Medicare which allows me to be online for a large portion of the day. Things are never extremely busy for me so I have plenty of time to run around Middle Earth. Things that I am interested in (in no particular order) include: reading, soccer, good beer (I'm a beer snob so I enjoy stuff like Smithwicks, Fullers, Old Peculiar etc.), Irish Pubs and enjoying family and friends.

Q) Do you have any questions for us?
A) None at the moment. Thanks for the opportunity to apply.

Not a bad app, I'll give my thumbs up.


Good luck to you, let's see what some of the other members think.

My dear, if you are a geezer, that makes me a geezer plus 4! Or, as my daughter tactfully told me recently, 'Mom, you're OLD!!!'

Anyhow, back to your app. I thought you had a solid app and it sounds like you would fit it well with our particular bunch. The only thing I did want to point out is that the largest contingent of our members play in the evenings, since most of us work during the day. Now, we do have a fair number of college students, stay at home parents, people who work at home or have odd schedules, but still the numbers are definitely fewer during the day and since you mention you play during the day, I wanted to make you aware of that. Do you play in the evenings as well?

Edit: just wanted to mention I really do like your forum name. My three year old's name is Kian.

Yes, I play in the evenings also. I have no children....yet....so I'm online often. If/when kids arrive who knows what will happen. I'm sure my whole world will change then anyway lol.

Thats awesome! Kian is the name we chose if we ever have a boy and Kiara if we have a girl. Boy/girl twins run in both of our families so we may get to use them both at once!

Sound app!

nice app.
Question though - What do you like better Cake,Pie,Pocky ?

I'd have to say cake. I assume you mean the Japanese stuff called Pocky? Never had it.

Here's what will happen when you do have children....you will change diapers, tend to baby, try and keep your S.O. from pulling her hair out, occasionally sleep and look at the computer wistfully remembering your carefree childfree days. The good news is that after about 6 months...you may get to turn on the computer. Anywho....good app you get a here.

good app to me and some good follow posts

Solid app. I think you would fit in well with our particular form of madness. from me.
