Q) Are you currently in any other Age of Conan guilds? Please tell us your reason for wanting to leave if you answered yes.
No

Q) Have you applied to any other Age of Conan guilds? Please tell us the status of your application if you answered yes.
No.

Q) What class and level are you? If you're not playing yet, what class do you intend to conquer Hyboria with?
I am a level 15 Dark Templar

Q) We like to have fun, how's your sense of humor? Not so good? Good? You're a standup comedian you say?
I'd like to think I have a good sense of humor. With my guild in WoW I am one of the few who can laugh at a raid wipe, just because I enjoy a challenge and believe these games should be fun with friends.

Q) What other MMO's have you played if any: [Acquired a few skills from some other games eh? Tell us about them]
I've play WoW (since 2005), I've also played Guild Wars, City of Heroes/Villains, Lineage II and a number of free MMOs. I love MMO's, and would think that I'm pretty seasoned when it comes to them.

Q) What makes you want to join us over some of the other AoC guilds? [let us know!]
I was originally going to stay unguilded for a while because none of my friends were coming directly over to the game. At work one day Skibo and I started talking and he told me he was as pumped about this game as I have been for the last couple of years, and recommended that I put in an app. I'd much rather be in a guild with people I know rather than complete strangers.

Q) What is your forum name on the official AoC forums?
AgeOfObie

Q) Tell us a tidbit or two about you, outside of gaming. Maybe about your job, your hobbies, maybe what sports you like to play. Anything you'd like to share.
My real name is Brandon, and I'm an analyst in the US Army. I enjoy the outdoors, going out around the town with my friends, reading, and of course video games. I think I'm a pretty good guy, always there for my friends, as would be the same for this guild. At anytime I'm needed, I'll be there.

Do you understand if approved you will be added to our reserves; where we select applicants to join our ranks on an as needed basis.
Yes, I understand.

If he's a bud from work, then there's the "friends and family" exception method for applying... Once that's ironed out, you can tell him where to post etc, or it might be the member will post his app for friend/family somewhere..?

Wow, another military guy! You all are taking over mmo's!

Seriously, though...what is it about mmo's that seems to attract a large military population? I've always wondered about that.

Good app and good luck!

I live in a military town(Fayetteville it is ruled over by Ft. Bragg). You would not believe the number of guys that play. We got several places here in town that have bunches of puters set up and you can RENT them by the hour hehe. Also I know 5 guys that had a room set up at one of their houses( wierdly enuff the married one) to handle 5 puters and they would sit in there and play fer hours hehe.

So far 41 of us have voted in the "what branch of the military poll" which is roughly 20% of the guild (based on 220 logging on the forums since May 6th). With retirees, those who got out with less than 20, and active duty. There are about 2 million active duty between all the services now, but there are far more retirees out there, plus Veterans... I'm sure the numbers are somewhere, and would be interesting to see if the sum total is close to 20% of the population. My gut instinct says that that total is around 10%, so that would mean that we're twice as likely to play MMO's as non military (or something like that)...

Maybe we just like to blow %^&* up, slice of some heads; toss in the drunken brawling and boobies, and we're hooked!

Welcome to the Family!

Hey guys, I really appreciate the add and all of the support! Seems like a great group of people, I'm really happy to be here!

WELCOME!!!
