First thing's first. I like lots of description, and having a solid grasp of the english language is great. Solid grammar and sentence structure is a must for me, -however.- And this part is very important. There is such a thing as /too much./ The line between writing a detailed post and trying to prove yourself as an intellectual superior is very thin, and as soon as you start using gigantic words willy-nilly and overthinking and trying to basically fill your post with as much useless fluff as you can, you're trying to prove something. Furthermore, I'm absolutely certain that you aren't interested in my whole life's story, as was pretty much described in the 'sample requests' sticky. I hope I've answered the questions thoroughly enough to satisfy the GMs without having to tell you every tiny little detail about myself and without having to pontificate, or, speak as if I'm a pompous intellectual elitist. Remember kids, true liberals educate the stupid. Fascists are the ones who kill them.
Er, and secondly, I'm running 2.4 I think. Pre WotLK. I might just be stupid and blind, but I can't seem to find the info that says what version you're running anywhere...
1. Of course I read the rules, policies, and FAQ. That just means it'll be easier for me to get in.
2. I actually heard about you lot through google. I was just searching for a decent private RP server and, lo and behold, here I be.
3. I got into RP years ago when I was about thirteen. I RPed on Yahoo with a close friend of mine doing multi-paragraph, highly detailed posts. We even did T1 dueling alot, so you don't really need to worry about exactly how descriptive I'll be.
4. I got into Warcraft because my brother bought it for me, actually. I never really played the top-down RTS games beyond the second one, and furthermore, unfortunately, I don't remember most of it! Hah...
5. I'm not exactly sure I have a favorite race or class. I tend to prefer playing Alliance, though, as the horde races just can't seem to hold my interest for long periods of time. I hope to rectify this.
6. Favorite kind of character to play...well, I like the strong female figurehead. A woman who is ballsy and strong enough to stand up and open a can'a whoop*** (PG-13, right?) on someone, whereas if I play a male character he's normally really feminine and fragile.
7. I enjoy pretty much all kinds of RP, but I cannot -stand- weeaboos. People who run around waving a katana claiming that it can cut through anything -really- make me want to strangle someone.
8. As a matter of fact, I sing and play guitar. And I'm rather good at it. I have other...'hobbies.' But they're not wholly legal, and if you're just plain curious, ask me outside a public forum.
9. I happen to reside in the good ol' U S of A. In the midwest, actually. Missouri's so dang boring. ._.
10. Well chyeah, of course I agree to the rules and policies. Why wouldn't I? People who acted against them are the whole reason I stopped playing retail WoW in the first place.
