First we are on Dagoth.

Second like your app except for a little bit lacking on info about your life outside of gaming. I realize that your are still a young-un and dont really have a whole lot of life behind you but there must be SOMEHTING else HEHEHEHEHEHE

Alright, well here's a little bit more about my life:

My favorite thing to do would by far be playing baseball. I have played since I was six years old. In high school I was varsity football as well as varsity baseball as a sophmore in a 4A school. Highschool baseball has been the highlight of my life. But coming in second, in my favorite things would definately be my ex-girlfriend. She goes to a different school, and after nearly a year of dating, we broke up, but we are talking again and are about to get back together, just in time for summer.

When I am not up at church(where I help out alot) and not with my gf/ex-gf, and not with some of my friends, I delve into the world of online videogaming. Having started playing Everquest (the first one) as my first MMORPG when I was only 11, it is a passtime I enjoy very much. In Age of Conan, the newest and the best so far, I have leveled up my barbarian to level 13 in approx. 2.5 hours of gameplay this morning.

I hope this gives you a little bit of insight into my life.

Who's your favourite baseball team? I've been a Yankees fan since the womb and will be until I die.

I played Little League as a kid, and I was the first girl in my city to get on the all-star team at the end of the season. I *adore* baseball---especially the sounds of it. The crowd, crack of the bat, the announcer...it's all very soothing.

Good response and good luck!

First of all I have to go with my hometown boys, the Texas Rangers. Mostly because their minor league team plays most of their games about 1 mile from my house. So I have gotten to see so many of these guys grow and develop as baseball players.

But my favorite team to watch has got to be the Red Sox! Go SOX! =D

And its really cool that you played baseball, most girls around here wouldnt do something like that so I will give you a few points for that, but I think you lose some for being a Yank! Haha

Does this mean that you would prefer to play PvP, but playing on a server where your friend is more comfortable playing is worth more to you than staying in your present guild? Has your friend applied to Hammerfist?

I'm curious to the statement you made on being "an early graduate" from High School, and here you are at 19, presumably 2-3 years later (since it was an early grad), with no mention of a job, nor college?

Q) Do you have any questions for us?
A)Is there anything I can do to earn a leadership role in this guild?

Seems/sounds presumptuous to me... A true leader wouldn't ask that; they would be who they are, and it would fall into their lap (most likely when they're not looking for, nor wanting it). Just my 2 cents.

As for the early graduatation, that simply means that I graduated in the fall semester as opposed to the spring semester. This is done by having enough credits to graduate at the end of that year. I doubled up on English and History classes as to get those credits filled. I am 19 because I was held back from Kindergarten having "not been mature enough for kindergarten".

As for the PvP question, I do enjoy the PvP aspects of the game, but the PvE aspects are also very fun. I am not leaving the PvP server simply because my friend asked me to (although it does have considerable weight), I am leaving partially because the open PvP was frustrating and would prefer a more "Battleground" PvP situation.

As for the leadership role, you do make a strong point, however the only reason I have asked such is due to the fact that the last guild, that I have now left, had a strict regiment used to determine the leaders. There was 1 "representative" for each of the 4 classes/proffessions. And in order to become that representative there were to be a series of rules, such as must be an active poster on the forums, overall knowledge of the game, and a set of strategies.

Hopefully this will clarify any doubts you may have.
If you have any other questions please post them and I will answer them to the best of my ability.

Also as for a job, I work at Bennigan's as a waiter. I believe I briefly mentioned it here.
