Q: What brought you to our website? A: One of your members (Yada Fah) directed me to the website. He had glowing things to say about the guild. Q: Do you plan to primarily Play FFXIV on a PS3 or PC? A: I plan to play on the PC. Q: What's your In Game Character Name? A: LeLe Ana Q: This recruitment process requires that we get to know you a little bit. Please tell us a little about yourself and how old are you. A: I am 30 years old. By day I work as a middle school teacher.It seems that my teacher hat never comes off. I tend to be very shy to begin with but I am quick to open up. I love Zombies and Dinosaurs. When I was younger I wanted to grow up to be a coke machine. I always believed that there was a person in the coke machine handing out cokes and taking money. This was the job of my dreams. Unfortunately at age 13 I saw a coke machine open for the first time and it broke my heart. I love corny jokes and I am good-natured. Q: Have you been playing MMO's for a while or are you just getting started? If you have played other MMOs which ones have you played before? A: I have played MMO’s for about 7 years. I started with World of Warcraft, took a left turn to Rift, a right turn to SWTOR and just recently found my way to a game called Vindictus. Q: What kind of characters do you typically play or what roles are you attracted to the most? (Tanks, DPS, Healers) Tell us about your main character. A: I typically play a healer. In real life I am very protective of things that are important to me and it comes across in game as a healer. I enjoy keeping people alive. My main and only character will be a white mage. Q: Have you been affiliated with any other Free Companies (Guilds) on Diabolos? If so, which ones. A: I have not been affiliated with any Free Companies on Diabolos. This is the first time I will be playing any FF game. Q: We have found that guild members have a better gaming experience if they use the forums. This allows you to get game information and join guildies in events as your real life time permits. Do you intend on being active on our website forums? A: I do intend on being active on the forums. There are many ways to gather information about a guild but I find forums to be the best source. I also like to insert my opinion on different topics/ issues when possible. Q: Once you learn how, we would like you to create events or RSVP for other scheduled events as your real life schedule permits. What are your thoughts on this? A: I would love to RSVP or create events. I tend to be very gung-ho about doing things. If you want something done you should try to do it yourself. Q: We expect all members to submit and update their characters in our website roster. Are you okay with this? After reading the above content, why do you think it might be important? A: Having the latest information on your character readily available for Admins and other members can help inform other members on what level you are and what raids you are available to do. Plus there’s nothing wrong with making sure that all your information is correct at all times. Q: If you violate any rules defined within the gaming EULA, you will face disciplinary action up to and including removal from this community. Do you understand, and agree with this rule? A: I understand and agree to this rule. Q: OSD uses Ventrillo. Our FFXIV Alliance also has access to a very large TeamSpeak Server. Are you familiar with these program? While it is not required that members be in vent/ts while in the game, it will be required when Raiding / End Game and encouraged for regular dungeons. You don't have to speak, just listen. Just having everyone interact will make the run more enjoyable. What are your feelings on this? A: I am familiar with Ventrilo and Teamspeak. I love listening to people and how they deal with different gaming situations. Having a voice client available is a great learning tool. Q: What time of day do you typically play? How often? A: I am usually up by 5 am and head home at about 5 pm. So I will be available anytime between 6pm and 1 am. Q: We will be on the Diabolos Server. Does that match your Server Plans? A: Yes, Of Course. Q: How do you think you can best help this community? How can this community best help you? A: I am here for whatever the community needs. I may not have an extensive gaming background or much gaming knowledge but I am familiar with some things. Other than gaming, if any of the community members would like to learn Spanish or need their essays critiqued and revised I would be more than happy to help with that also. Q: OSD is generally a "casual, do it all" guild, meaning we welcome players from all playstyles and don't limit our focus to one playstyle in particular. We welcome PvPers, PvEers, Raiders, Roleplayers, Crafters, etc. For example, while we may offer weekly dungeon runs and/or raids, we are not a hardcore raiding guild that requires you to participate 5 or 6 nights a week. We also do not consider any one playstyle to be more important than another, all members of OSD are equal. For example, a hardcore PvPer or Raider will never be considered "more valuable" to the than a casual Roleplayer would be. Are you okay with this? Any additional thoughts on this topic? A: I am absolutely okay with this.
Thank you! It does take a bit of patience to deal with certain age groups. I can imagine how teaching 2nd grade, although rewarding can be equally or even more stressful than teaching middle school.
Oh good! I was so worried someone would read that and think, " Maybe we shouldn't allow her into the guild..Look at the kinds of things she is typing" So happy you loved it!
Loved reading your Application! Coke machine story... love it. Application looks great and you should now have Permissions to have full forum access. We have a Roster in our FFXIV section with our officer's listed that you can /tell to get you into the game. I just got off my first day of my new job and running on empty atm. I'll jump on quickly and see if I can invite you into the FC and will try again tomorrow evening if we miss tonight. Welcome to the Order of the Silver Dragons! Invited 9/17
Well it seems that people that write these type of things are the only people we let in ^_^ you should fit in just fine
