Q) Have you read our Code of Conduct and Forum Rules?
A) Sure did. I noticed you missed "drink beer, get into brawls, have fun smashing heads". Or are your rules only meant to apply to in-game conduct?
Q) Are you at least 18+ years of age? [yes, no, actual age is optional]
A) Yep - just turned 33 a few weeks ago.
Q) Do you have any relatives or friends currently in the guild? If so, who?
A) Nope
Q) Name: [planned in game/forum name]
A) Dao Jones
Q) Gender: [female, male]
A) Male
Q) What region do you live in? [City and State is fine.]
A) Pacifica, CA (just outside of San Francisco)
Q) How did you hear about us: [friend, another member, forum, google, other mmo's, etc]
A) Referred by a guy named Jenado; he said you'd give him twenty bucks for every new member he recruited, and that he'd split his take with me. (Hah! I kid. He said it worked like a pyramid scheme, and when I joined I could add my name to the bottom of the list after sending the guild heads $5 each. I can't wait to make money fast and be my own boss!)
Q) Are you currently in any other Age of Conan guilds?
A) I'm not in any Age of Conan anythings. 'Cept the newsletter and official forums.
Q) Have you applied to any other Age of Conan guilds?
A) Nope. You're my first. Be gentle. Use protection.
Q) We like to have fun, how's your sense of humor? Not so good? Good?
You're a standup comedian you say?
A) Amusingly enough, there was a period where I *was* working on being a professional comedian. As you can gather from my application, I wasn't very successful.
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'm told Diablo/Diablo 2 don't count, but I also played Guild Wars and City of Heroes/Villains. I believe I have the honor of having written the first Monk FAQ for GW anywhere on the web (and I still get emails about it even years later).
Q) What makes you want to join us over some of the other AoC guilds? [let us know!]
A) Age. While I've meet a few decent teenagers in my day, and many idiotic adults, my money is on the big kids in the long run. Plus, I was told there would be punch and pie served. (Am I docked points for South Park references? Are they too passe?)
Q) What aspects of Age of Conan excite you the most or worry you? Why?
A) Excite me? I'll have to admit a little nerdiness and confess looking forward to crafting and siege warfare. And I'm also looking forward to boobs, although to be honest I suspect the first time some creepy shut-in pretending to be female tries to cyber with me while posing as a half-naked dancing girl I'll probably turn on every nudity censor the game offers.
I'm definitely NOT looking forward to any forced grouping, or hours of grinding for items (which may not be the case here).
Q) What is your forum name on the official AoC forums?
A) Dao Jones. I'm not very creative.
Q) Is there any other information about yourself you would like to share with us?
A) I have to be at the airport in an hour, and I'm getting really tired of flying to Houston every week for this client engagement. Just FYI. Also, even though I regularly drink beer, I don't really like it.
Q) Do you have any questions for us?
A) Your application is also *my* application. If you read through all of it without getting bored, annoyed or distracted, that's one point. If you feel my style of conversation (I'm consistently sarcastic, and verbose about it) suits you, you get another point. Lastly, I'm curious about the gender breakdown of this clan. Not because I'm looking for an online wife/girlfriend/sugarmommy, but because in my experience online groups that attract women tend to be among the better of communities, because it implies that the group is more about having fun and being relaxed then waving your e-peens around and being 1337.
Cheers!
