Jockiera, 60 Warrior Application

Well hello there! I would be interested in joining Nemetos Order, a friend of mine told me some warriors just had quit the guild so I thought I ought to give this a try since I am currently looking for a high end guild, and since I think I got more references than I'm aware of here it would seem like an ideal choice for me to apply here. Getting started then

The real name is Joakim, I am a 17 year old guy, turning 18 this November, living somewhere in the middle of Sweden. I live at my mothers place, visiting my dads every other weekend missing out on a few weekend raids sometimes. I'm starting my 3rd year at "upper secondary school" wich is my last year. My general interests would be Metallica and Dragonball Z

The characters name is, as already stated, Jockiera. Now let me set something straight about this name while at it. If you live in Sweden and have Joakim as name you will ineviatbly be called Jocke as a nickname. Now having trouble coming up with a nickname for my character I came up with the name Jockiera, wich is actually Jock(i)e(ra), the name is not a reference to jock-strap or something. Also people tend to call me 'jock' at most occasions, now I hope you could respect that I dont want to be called that cause, 1. its a horrible short name! 2. it bears a resemblence with the swedish word for 'humping'. Now thats way too much to write about my characters name isn't it?

So, of course I have been in several guilds over the time I have played WoW since early february last year, ignoring the few irrelevant on Shattered Hand between levels 17(?) - late 40's before I migrated to Kor'gall. The complete list follows.
  • Champions of Azeroth
    Brotherhood of Valhalla
    Pink Swedes
    In Your Honor
    Tul Acharn
    North
    M y s t
    Crimson Blades
    Nights Watch
Now, that list is long but the guilds in bold were more serious raiding guilds, whereas the others just small community guilds, even if they did raid not on such a large scale as the highlighted ones, this is also the guilds that supplied me with my gear and experience. Of course there is a reason I'm not part of those three.

Tul Acharn, disbanded simply
Crimson Blades kicked me for being lazy and slacking during raids
Nights Watch kicked me for respecing without asking (as if a 30 minute conversation in /g chat with a guildie doesnt hint about it :>)

Now that Crimson Blades part sounds a bit like someone you dont want in a guild, truth is that I got a hold of myself and putted more energy into my raiding. If I would compare myself as a raider between the two guilds (CB & NW) I would say that I were far more serious in NW. The very unserious part about raiding in CB was "excessive" alt tabbing, mostly doing something completely else. In NW it was only turning on some mp3's, checking loots on current instance. So thats a little about myself and my guild history.

Well, moving on to experience, as follows:

Onyxia: Cleared (CB, NW)
Molten Core: Cleared (CB, NW)
Blackwing Lair: Cleared (CB, NW)
Zul'gurub: Cleared (CB, NW)
Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj: Cleared (CB, NW)
Temple of Ahn'Qiraj: Up to Huhurran (NW)

Activity:
Weekdays - 1X:00 - 01:00 since I am still attending school I have to put a limit to my raiding hours. In case of some important exam or similar I might skip raiding some nights.
Weekends - XX:00 - XX:00, avialable all time, daytime, nighttime. Missing out on these raids every other weekend or on other eventual occsasions (going out of town, visiting relatives etc.)

Also the tactics in instances were different between the two guilds, usally nothing huge, mostly different positioning etc. NW also used Teamspeak where CB didnt.

References in Nemetos Order, well. Tul Acharn disbanded and iirc many of those in the guild joined Nemetos. Crimson Blades "died" and some members have joined Nemetos. That would mean I would know at least some people, and of course knowing more new faces.

So, more details about my character.

/played is about 90 days

Jockiera was created 11th February 2005, the day WoW servers opened and is my only character to have reached 60, where a lvl 21 priest is the second highest.

http://ctprofiles.net/606775 <--- Real sets are: Main, PVP, Tank, Tank 2, Fire Resist, Fire Resist DPS (outdated), Nature Resist. PVP profile has incorrect talent spec. The correct is 19/32

And while we are at talents, I am currently speced 19/32, with focus on a balanced PVE damage dealing build. Now I don't have a problem with respecing or anything, but I, who used to PVP alot before reaching Rank 11, I would almost say I am done with PVP, I only got one goal left though. WSG exalted, currently have pretty much 10500/21000 atm and gonna try get into a premade to get myself some more rewards to enhance my dps gear. And if I were to spec with X/X/15 I would like to try some Fury/Prot hybrid build.

Well, I dunno if there is more to say about me, this would be definitely one of my more serious applications, wich I seem to have to write way too often :(

And they seem to get longer and longer for every time

Damn that is much work behind that app...
And to check loots and changes mp3 maybe is not the best thing to do durning raids when u are a tank imo.
Nice app anyway..good luck

I'm not going to follow the other recommendations. Had problems with you in the past and I'm going to strongly suggest Arros considers other warriors first.

We recently got a new warrior that should do it for the moment. Good luck in finding another good guild.

Sorry but, as far as I know I cant remember I have ever talked to you before. If it would be immature behaviour I would quote myself from earlier today on mIRC:
16:44:33 <j0ck3> I have been on holiday for 4 weeks, and living at my dad's place for 2 weeks, so 6 weeks without my 's-word'

16:44:56 <j0ck3> And during that time I decided to grow up and act more mature on the internet
The behavior I presented as a person before my holidays (the 6 week period I refered to in the quote) was very immature. In fact horrible, I would even call myself an asshole during that time. I spammed, I flamed, I argued with no reason, I acted very bad against fellow guildies and all that were also reasons why I were forced to leave Crimson Blades. As said, there was nothing wrong about my behavior in Nights Watch that got me a /gkick. Also, about spamming, I only got one channel to talk in, and thats trade wich is the solution I have found best to stop me from spamming at all in various channels, wich I used to do during raids in Crimson Blades.
