Messie 54 Iksar Monk (09 Feb)
Posted: Mon Feb 09, 2015 1:29 am
Hello all - let me preface my application by saying that this is mostly the information that was on my prior (inactive) application, with a few parts updated such as my level and playtime. I just messaged Rikantiza tonight asking how to proceed with reapplying, and he said to post a new application. So here I am! I applied the second day I returned to playing, but went inactive for a bit.
Now I've been playing for the last three weeks consistently, and am certainly feeling the time differential between EU and NA, and Europa seems to be the only guild I would have other players on at the same time, and everyone I have grouped with from Europa lately (Jarjah, Olddirty, Tiva, and a few more) have been awesome group members. I am now seb keyed, and 3 levels higher than when I applied previously.
So, finally, here is my application, resubmitted.
5 Character Details
Monk, 54 Iksar.
5.1 Why Europa?
Please tell us in 1-2 sentences why you want to join Europa.
I am an American studying abroad in Finland, and upon returning to p99 this week, I found that my old guild has lost many of its older members. I was an officer for a long time in the Knights Who Say Ni about a year ago.
5.2 Personality
Tell us a bit about yourself. Who are you in real-life, where are you from, what do you like etc.
I am a 26 year old student finishing my degree in Finland. I am from New York, but I am studying here in Turku until June. I enjoy casual friendly gaming, and good conversation!
5.3 Experience
Tell us what experience you have in EQ or any other MMORPG.
I have had a lot of experience in EQ and other games. In Everquest, years and years ago, I raided during Velious. I could probably still navigate a lot of Kael'Drakkal without getting completely lost. When Luclin, then the Planes of Power came about, I raided SSRA (Luclin), and up to the elemental planes in PoP. This does not mean I am a raider now, though, it has been years and that's about the limit to what I can remember. In WoW, I raided during the Burning Crusade and killed Illidan!
5.4 History on P99
What guild(s) have you been in? Did you play another character before?
Messie is my main character, I have a few low 20s alts, but Messie is my primary toon. The only guild I have ever been in was The Knights Who Say Ni. I joined them as my first guild when I was leveling in Oasis of Marr, and I have casually played and stayed with them since. I became an officer in the Knights about 3 months after becoming a member. After a break (this summer heading into now) and returning to the game, the guild has mostly disbanded, and the remaining members I am unfamiliar with.
5.5 Playtime
Tell us how much you play or plan on playing, what time etc.
(This is an updated section now). I have been playing for about 3 weeks solidly now, and loving it. I am playing a few hours a day, and could make most raid times as long as I can plan my schedule out for the week around it.
5.6 Goals and motivation
What are you looking for in a guild and what can you contribute?
I am looking for a mature guild that I can find good conversation, groups, raids and adventures with. I am not a hardcore raider, but I am generally down for any type of adventure that is tossed my way. I don't mind helping out lower levels with quests, as I was helped out by higher levels when I was lower. As I said previously, I am a student on exchange currently and I log into P99 to relax in my free time. I will contribute to the guild by being a level-headed, fun, and respectful player!
5.7 Communication
Where did you hear about us? Who do you know already from us?
I had seen the Europa tag around for a long time while leveling last year, but since I was in the United States at the time, the time differences made it unlikely that we would group together. I did know the name, and had a friendly relationship with a few random members throughout my leveling experience. I can't recall anyone in particular. After just returning this week after 6 months offline, I am having a hard enough time rebuilding my friends list. But I thought of applying to Europa after talking to one of my ex-guildies about what guilds I should look into now that the Knights has begun to dwindle away.
