Eraserr, rogue- raider application.

[Erasérr]

Hello. It's me (Hello from the other side )- a dude who was spamming your forums with blank applications.

**apparently something is wrong with DNS filtering so I was told to write an app in "open" form.

Joking aside, my name is Antonio Potočki. I am 29 year old gamer from Croatia, currently working as an IT specialist. Besides playing WoW and CS:GO I play basketball, go out with friends (read "drink with friends" ) and take my dog for a walk.

Professions
I've chosen on rogue are JC and LW. At some point in game those two were best raiding professions for rogue so I decided to stick with them.

Spec

Currently specced into Subtlety (for single target) and combat (for aoe fights). I am always willing to play a spec guild asks of me so I am confident playing all three specs. Reason to play sub and combat is because those specs share best secondary stat which is multistrike so it's easy to switch.
I fel in love with subtlety spec back in Cataclysm when it was the hardest spec in game. It requires a lot of planning and good execution.
Combat on the other hand is quite opposite spec, pretty straight forward spec which involves around using your cooldowns as many times possible. For that matter I am specced into Marked for Death, and use mouseover macro to get the best of it.

Raiding/guild history

In vanilla I was only in one guild called DeMuerte with which I cleared everything up to second boss in AQ40. After that I was in a guild called Bane- cleared everything with them including SSC and TK. When they disbanded I joined Horde Empire in which I stayed until Cataclysm. With Horde Empire I cleared BT,MH and took break when Sunwell came. In WotLK we cleared everything but Anub'arak and LK25m hc. During Cataclysm guild stopped raiding so I had a short adventure on Dunemaul (can't remember guild name) where we killed Spine HC (pre nerf). Horde Empire got back together and called me to help them so I came back to clear Dragon Soul HC.
In Pandaria, raiding started fine but people lost interest and guild again stopped raiding. After that couple of us transfered to Kazzak.Current raid progress in Pandaria can be seen on my armory.
On Kazzak, I joined Purged, where I followed Rosen. Guild was doing pretty good but again, people stopped showing for raids which led to guild stop raiding.
After that  I joined very causal guild Legio Getica as social. I had pretty decent gear so I helped them  in HFC but they were to casual for me. Social aspect of guild was fine but after some time I talked to Rosen and he asked me to join his current guild. Two of us were joined again, with couple of old friends. Guild is called Cupcake Club.We started really well, had good progress for 2day raiding guild and yet again people lost interest which led to us stop raiding. With them I was able to kill 5 bosses on mythic in HFC.
Since guild stopped raiding, I run mythic dungeons and archi hc so I would get better gloves and ring upgrade.

Why me and why you?
I have few alts but only toon I really care about is rogue. No matter what patch brings and Blizzard decides to do, I am sticking to my rogue. It's been like that for 12 years and will be even further. When it comes to raiding I always do my job: I look at videos and guides, read forums to figure out the best spec for specific fight. For videos I always look for videos that include rogue PoV to have the best insight possible. I also use simcraft to try new things and shadowcraft to compare gear. I am active on mmo-champion rogue forum to be on spot with new and different things. When it comes to playing my rogue I am very dedicated. I've been playing WoW for a long time, but I know I am not the best player ever. In that regard, I am always open to critique if I do something wrong.

At first I wanted to apply as social but figured I would try as a raider. PvE has always been my commitment and for that I need a guild. Whenever I was looking to join a guild it mattered to me to know someone who is already in- I don't mean to vouch for me or anything but to say what's it like being with those poeple. That leads to "Why you?"- my friend Rosen told me very good things about you so I decided to give it a try. Another thing why you is that you raid two days a week which is perfect for me. My 4-5 raiding days are long over and your raid schedule fits me perfectly. You already cleared content, I am aware of that but that just proves I am at the right place.

Computer/UI/Mic
I have a solid computer which provides me with 70-100 fps while raiding. For internet I have 30 Mbit download and 5 Mbit upload. With this computer and internet speed I am able to stream sometimes.
I have a working microphone, TS3 installed and I am willing to talk. 
For UI i use Elvui, Weak Auras, Bandit's guile helper and skada. Instead of providing you with screenshot, here are two videos, first kills on Blast Furnace and Iron Maidens in BRF:

Last words
Some say 3rd one is a charm,but in my case, I hope, 5th one is the charm (as 5 is the number of applications I made ) . Anyhow, thank you for reading and hope to hear from you soon. If you have any more questions you can add me poke me ingame on any of my chars.

[Gaeios(Graxlos)]

Happy you made it through.

Generally a very nice application.

I am quite curious what kind of security addons you have since you managed to send your email address and the "password" to the forum which are the two things I validate. But somehow the message and subject were lost somewhere.

If you have time I would love if you would make a 6th application with just a few random chars in each field to see if my validation changes work.  I guess it could be due to specialchars in your name, maybe I need to filter the strings better.

[Erasérr]

I made a 6th app. Same thing

[Erasérr]

For security I have adblock plus

[Gaeios(Graxlos)]

Yeah its a bug on our end, it is the specialchar in your name it seems.

[Erasérr]

Atleast I helped you realize what the problem is

[Gaeios(Graxlos)]

Yep, we recently migrated our forum from a server with an ancient php version. Should be fixed now!

[Rash]

Very nice application indeed! You have our sincerest apologies for having to write your application so many times over.

I've already had a chance to talk to Eraser during his forum troubles and I think he's a very nice, outspoken guy.

I'd like to give him a shot!

Hey Eraserr,

I typed out a loving and detailed discussion and evaluation of your app, your qualifications and skills you could add to the raid roster, then my computer decided to suddenly restart and install a huge update. So I'll keep it short.
How would you feel if somebody spelt your name with numbers? Say, 3r4s0r?
Also, your gear and experience is lacking, but we can work with that. I expect you to have the completely upgraded legendary ring before joining though. Motivation and a good show during the trial can always offset missing experience.

[Erasérr]

I think Skynet has slowly started taking over. First my app (or apps if you like) , then your computer restarting in crucial time...something is fishy here
Ph03n1xf14m3, I wouldn't mind at all
I am working on legendary ring upgrade every week. Also, some items don't show 2/2 upgrades even though they were upgraded a while ago. Certainly I don't lack motivation and will do my best to do my job and what is asked of me.

Hey brate moj,

I hope to see you soon with us, after all, ive learned everything i know from you

Thats why you never let windows control when your updates run!

[Phoenixflame]

Alright, all things considered, this looks acceptable. I'd like to give you a trial and see where it leads us.

You can poke me or an officer ingame for an invite!
