My WoW history
Played WoW since beta, first live character was a rogue on Shattered Hand, which I abandon for reasons I really dont remember. Two friends from another game already played on SR (Maligan was one of them, which some of you might know as Korpus) so I started my first warrior here (I've had 4 lvl80 warriors, dont ask). I have had my warriors as main from day one of this game until the release of the last part of ICC when I rerolled rogue.
I really didnt raid that much in my early days, was too much involved in competetive FPS games, but joined a guild called The Blackhand Order which I raided MC, ZG and AQ20 with. However, the guild leader of TBH really wasnt a stable person, so I left after a year or so. After that I joined a guild called Reclaimers and raided BWL, AQ40. At the end of vanilla wow the guild disbanded and I was guildless. At TBC launch I joined Nocturne but they sadly disbanded after some weeks of inactivity and the core left for botw. I joined up a bunch of norweigan and swedes in Evolution, where I raided KZ, Gruul. A drunk guild leader (Hi Licka/Abdulla!) kicked half the guild one night and I felt it was time to type /gquit (But I still love Abbie!). This time the journey took me to a new server, Frostmane, where I joined Notorious (www.notorious.se) where I raided SSC and beyond in a somewhat semi hardcore enviroment. Due to death in family I took a break from WoW. When I came back I transfered my warrior back to Stormreaver. This was some time after SWP was released and I joined you guys actually and raided BT/SWP a few times.
So came Wrath of the Lich King ... I was top 20, or atleast very close to that to reach 80 on SR, on my old rogue. But my love affair with the warrior class just wasnt over, so I lvl'd him to 80 in one crazy ~1 week session (girlfriend labeled me insane and persona non grata and went on a little vacation). Sadly I didnt get to raid with you guys in wotlk except for some KT10 tries. I chilled and thought things would settle after some time and raid spots would open up, but before that happend I met a couple of nice lads in a naxx10 pug from a swedish guild called Alla Cooldowns and ended up playing for them a few hours later. I stayed with them and cleared everything except 25 man OS3D. During the time between Naxx and Ulduar our guild kinda broke apart. People transfered to other servers and/or back to horde (main bulk of guild was ex-horde). At this time, my warrior Jazko was one of the best geared fury warriors on server (Only missed the DMF card for BiS on everything).
However, I sadly sold my account and felt my time in WoW was over. Guess what, it wasnt. Some time after ToC was released the need for WoW took over and I started to level my 4th (And last!) warrior and was lvl 80 after ~14 (no raf :z) days of hard work. I joined my friends over at Nocturne and I've been there since. However Nocturne was kinda full of warriors at that time so I finally made my first main reroll in WoW after 5 years and swapped bad ass two handers for tiny daggers. This happend some time after LK was made available so my char is still kinda "fresh". I have played rogue as alt for some years thou.
In April this year some relatives and me decided we wanted to reach some PvP titles before Cataclysm, and also due to IRL changes that made my playing times kinda unsuitable for raiding, so we transfered to Stormscale to focus only on arena. Our focus was on 3s as RMP, but our priest went perma afk and summer with all its glory + World Cup came. And after that both the mage and priest was stuck with SC2 beta and to no surprise they play retail SC2 now. So I'm moving my rogue back to Stormreaver.
Sorry for wall of text, but in my opinion the history of a player in a game tells more about him than one liner answers to typical questions. There is some questions I feel should be answered thou and here they come ...
What I enjoy most in WoW?
Everything. PvE progress is what I like the best. But even when I'm not playing (and at home), Im logged in for the social part. So I'd say that plays a pretty big role aswell.
What am I looking for in a guild?
A stable platform to enjoy the current end game content with. The "enjoy" part is what makes such a place actually quite hard to find.
Why am I applying to you?
I've been in TEO once and like the concept of casual hardcore (or however one should describe it) where you dont have to dedicate your life and sell your soul to see the end game content. I have a family and cant raid every day, so when I'm able to do so, I want to make the best out of it and not waste time on people who dont give a shit about others and come unprepared both in mind and consumables. I would love to beat the content of the coming expansion under the TEO flag. Might add I already know your raiding times and unless something unexpected comes up, I would be available.
What can you expect from me?
Active raider who comes in time and prepared to raids. I keep myself updated on recent and upcoming changes to the game and adapt accordingly.
Various info
I have a stable computer and connection and knowledge to keep it clean and in shape to run WoW + addons without problems. I know a couple of people in TEO which I hope can vouch for me. Right know I'm busy with irl (doing some renovations at home) and wont be able to be online much (nor be active until a week or so). So if you need further info or want to talk to me, just tell Korpus to give me a shout on MSN and I'll be there asap if I'm at home.
Think that pretty much covers it.

What a shock my former alt have bad achivements
Also amusing you say I need to gear up when I'm logged out in PvP gear and you cannot possibly know how my combat nor muti gear is like.
Ah well, thanks for your time and I think I pass making a new application

yeah but since you didnīt clear or got that many bossīs down in icc25 / that drops rogue gear.. Then i know you have to gear up. and 10 man icc gear just ainīt enough sry.
and it would not be fair to invite you for trial, when it will be an uphill iceskate for you m8.
but you are more than welcome to drop an apply in the future..

According to both my common sense, knowledge and Aldriana's spreadsheets my only upgrades on BOTH my combat and muti gear, with the exception of Cultist's Bloodsoaked Spaulders and dagger from LK for my muti set, is only available in ICC25HC. In fact, except the dagger from the Lich King himself, there isnt a single piece of equipment I would change, origin from ICC25, before going ICC25HC. Cultist shoulders is a no go since I need the tier shoulder for set bonus.
My response was to JR's first reply where he said; "gear up get atleast LK down first and come back with an apply". Which I thought was kind of silly, since he really cant know how my gear was like. And since most rogue goodies drop off the bosses I have downed with rogue (and got, since I often was the only rogue in the raids and no kitties) I thought it was even more silly, hence my reply. He did however explain better in his 2nd post and he is right I would need some upgrades to compete in the top of the DPS charts. But those upgrades only come from ICC25HC and thats the reason I apply to a guild raiding the said instance. My search goes on.
And it wasnt meant to be any sort of "attitude" in my reply to JR. And I'm sorry if it seemed that way
