What guilds have you been in previously? Why did you leave?	Previously of Sol Invictus as a casual member. I left because at the time I could not make raid times because of work, and I wanted to find 25 man groups to progress with on my schedule at the time. I joined a start up guild, Vindictive, with Belgeran, but left on good terms due to the fact that they didn't have room for my mage in raids and I didn't enjoy playing a healer on my pally (which is what they needed). I have since joined Vir De Fatum, however am still an initiate. Nothing bad to say about them; it's just that their schedule of 10:00 to 2:00 am is incongruant with my new schedule at work... I now get home at 6:30pm and go in at 9:00... so staying up all night isn't going to work anymore. :(
Our raid times are from 8pm-12 on Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday and Monday. Can you make the majority of these raids?	For at least the next 6 months I will have a schedule at work that is perfect for your raid times.. I can't promise what will happen after that as my schedule is dependent basically on the whims of the luck gods... but i will be working very hard to keep that schedule. If it becomes apparent that I'm not going to be able to make raids, i will of course bow out.
What sort of previous raid experience do you have?	Several years of MMO experience in both Vanilla WoW and EQ2. Killed all vanilla content, including C'thun, contested world dragons, etc, and then moved to eq2 where i stayed for about 2 years... played as a healer in that game, hardcore raiding their too. I came back to WoW last January and have since built my mage up, brought up several alts to lvl 60, and also built a lvl 80 pally with decent tanking/healing gear (not good enough for ToC 25, though... ToC 10, though).
Tell us a little bit about yourself. No less than 20 words please.	I am all about my family, wife and kids, showing up to work and making a paycheck, and having fun raiding. :)
How long have you been playing WoW? Have you played any other MMOs?	Since it came out... see above for raid experience... I could copy/paste... but...
What is your secondary spec and at what level do you feel confident in performing your alternate role?	2nd spec is frost for solo farming.
Do you have any alts? If so, tell us about them.	I have many alts, most classes at least 60... and my main alt is an 80 pally in ulduar lvl tank/healing gear. I also have a 75 priest i'm thinking about leveling up... but currently is a tradeskill mule.
If we were to talk to your former guildmates, what do you think they would say about you?	I don't think you would get many complaints. I've never been selfish in game, always try to obey the rules of mmo karma, etc.
If you were asked to sit out of a raid while another player was brought in how would you handle it?	Sure, np. I would go mine, hang out with wife, etc.
Is there anything else you feel we should know about you? Links to world of logs reports, wws, or any similar reports are appreciated.	I wish i had some dps parses to link here... suffice it to say, I pull about 5k plus zonewide in most raids, I know how to play my class very very well, and I'm willing to learn and take direction.
