Tell us a bit about yourself: Hey! Well my name is Nick, i'm 23 from Dublin in Ireland and i've recently gone back to college this year to get a second degree in Computer Science. I currently work part time after college and have a better half. I'm interested in joining IE because you've been around since vanilla when I originally started playing my gnome warlock Adeyrn, and some of you may recognise that name from Dunemaul.org, where i' be trollin'!(no hard feelings i hope!) And now to fit that, I faction changed my shaman since I came back to WoW and it is now troll.
Are you comfortable with the English language, both spoken and written?: Yea, I speak it fluently.
Character name: Boinkk
Character class: Shaman
Primary spec: Resto, i've a serious dislike for any other spec, although I do play ele to do dailies and such.

Recent guild history:Hmm well I originally started in vanilla and played through till TBC so i'll try remember as many
as I can!
Level 60:
- Mysticus - very old school guild, didn't quite have as many members as Infinity Wow but it had a lot...
- Guardians of Freedom - Played with these on my warlock, fighting Cold Blooded and BloodRage for server firsts.
After i left GoF, i sold my warlock and stopped playing. A couple of months later I decided to come back and I made my warrior, Doinkk.
With Doinkk I played in no major guilds as I primarily played premade WSG.
When TBC was released I had always wanted a shaman(had tried many times, think the highest I ever got was 12!) so i made Boinkk.
With Boinkk i played in..
- Fatal Union
- Triumvirate
I'm sure I played in more but it's a long time ago so I don't remember at the moment.
Level 85:
- Legends Never Die ( for at least some social interaction while leveling )
- Behaviorism, I played with Mutli a long time ago on my shaman in season 1 where the team came #2 in 5v5 in the BG, although I lost my played percentage due to inactivity at the end of the season so I lost my mount and rank. Joined this guild because one day Mutli spotted me after hearthstoning to Orgrimmar and we started chatting, was nice to meet an old friend!
Raiding experience: My raiding experience may not be the best because raiding is not what I do anymore, but I have raided:
MC / BWL / Onyxia / AQ20 / ZA / ZG / Karazhan / Gruul / TK / Malygos / Naxx
With so many guilds available. Why Iron Edge?: Why IE? Why not IE? Iron Edge has strived to be the best for as long as I can remember. This is what I do, I do not do things to be average, I do things to be the best and I would like to think I am a good shaman and I can bring a lot of things to Iron Edge, a good attitude, good sense of humour(feel like i'm writing looking for a date!), and i'm versatile in that I adapt to situations well, whether they be social interaction or in Wow.
There's always been good banter with Iron Edge from Dunemaul.org and I always enjoyed the days of ganking Kagemoth while leveling and Nach and his amateur porno picture on dunemaul.org so not only for the idea of playing with the best, but also for the banter and the community. Wow is nothing without people to play with.
I'd also like to follow my friends, Mutli has recently joined you and he was the one that recruited me into Behaviorism where I met most of my friends and Ashiro has also applied to you and like I said before, Wow is nothing without the people you play with.
When did you start playing World of Warcraft, and why?: I started playing back when the US beta was around, playing a gnome warlock to 18 with a friend of mine I played counterstrike with and I loved it. So I bought it and I've quit a few times but i'm currently addicted to it, albeit when time allows me to be.
Do you have Ventrilo/Teamspeak and know how to use it?: Yea, not rocket science.
Do you have a microphone (one that isn't crap), and will you talk if necessary?: Yea I've no problem talking.
We're big on forum activity in Iron edge. Will you check and post on the forum regularly?:
Forums are awesome, I love the banter that goes with forums, as some of you may remember from Dunemaul.org where I was a regular before it closed.
Explain ways in which you are working on improving your character: I always play my character to be the best, I gem and enchant to get the most out of my character and to remove any flaws that it may have. I play to PVP, so I always strive to improve reaction time and whatever else it is you need in PVP, whether it be a new addon to help, displaying enemy casts etc. Anything I can do, I try to.
What's your greatest strength and weakness as a World of Warcraft player?:In my opinion my strengths are that I can quite calm and collected when it comes to Wow, I do have a temper although it never really flares unless someone provokes it, which is usually because of something that occured in PVP, I don't ever really have any conflicts with people, i'm pretty open to experiment(Nach will love this!) and I'd consider myself a strong and good player, whether it be in small PVP arenas, or in Rated BGs.
My weaknesses are my activity levels, due to my schedule with work and college I am active, but not to the extent I wish I could be. As Ashiro said in his post, he'll get his ratings up when his resto shaman is around! Well that's me, I am active but often have work or college work to be doing and in my opinion real life stuff comes first, but I am always up for games when I am active.
My arena ratings aren't currently the highest because of a number of reasons, Rated BGs are going on, and lets be honest, they're more fun than arena! Work, college etc. They are going up, but just not going up fast but i can assure you I can easily break 2k rating without any problems.
Mutli will be able to vouch for me on my skills.
I'm hoping you enjoy reading my wall of text and look forward to your replies.
Cheers,
Nick ( Boinkk )
