-In-game Name: Vanzan

-What would you prefer to be called in game and on vent?

Vanzan or my IRL name "Jon".

-Class: Swordmaster

-Level: 18

-Real life Birthdate (Age limit? Hmmm, maybe you just have to figure out how old!):

05/16/79

-Previous Guild(s) and reason(s) for leaving?

None thus far.

-Please list and detail previous MMO experience.

Star Wars Galaxies:
Played SWG for 3 years (started when servers went live). While playing SWG, I was a very active PvP'er and preferred going about battles in an organized, objective manner. When not pvp'ing, I would socialize and help crafters obtain items needed to make superior armor and weapons. I was in 1 guild and remained there until a mass exodus of players/friends/guildies I knew decided to move on.....

World of Warcraft:
Where do I begin? Played Wow, solidly for about 2 1/2 years as an UD Rogue on Eredar Server. I was active in the "old school" pvp rank system and made it to Rank 10 before I burned out. Joined a guild that was new to MC and remained with them for 10 months. The change of pace was fun, but the guild began disintegrate prior to the release of BC.

BC brought a lot of changes for me. Long story short: joined a guild of friends until it disbanded months later, despite having made great progress PVE-wise. Retired my Horde Rogue and continued to play 2 other rogues (alliance side) i leveled on the side.

-How did you hear about Nexus of War?

Browsing warhammeralliance.com

-Why do you want to be a part of NoW?

Based upon what I've read about the guild: NoW's "mission statement", age range and
personnel- all very appealing to me. I'm sure I'd be an easy fit and a great addition to the clan.

-What interests you most about the game?

It's a fun change of pace. I am enjoying myself, whereas for the past year that I played WOW, I tried to have fun... but couldn't. I feel comfortably "locked-in" and focused when running scenarios and the fact that WAR is built upon PVP dynamics and challenges. World PvP seems to certainly exist at this stage of the game and can be found almost anywhere. There's a sense of almost instant gratification for me, which I like Smile

.

-Was George Lucas higher than a kite when he created Jar-Jar Binks as a character? Defend your answer!

I'd heard several times that George created Jar-Jar to appeal to the younger audience, the "new fans/kids", that would be experiencing the film(s). Big mistake on his part! He may have been high, indeed. Perhaps he still is.

-And finally, what makes you stand out from other candidates to make us want to go, "Oh! I like him/her let's accept their app"

"Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, "Give me your best shot, pal. I can take it."

That sums me up lol!

Hi guys,
Thanks for the replies. Glad you liked the BTiLC reference too. Wanted to update you all, that I've been having serious computer issues lately of the RAM variety. This has, unfortunately, limited my play time and has stressed me out a bit... with all the lock-ups, framerate drops and blue screen of deaths.

Thank you for the reply Vanzan! Truth be told, my limited play time this past week had me frustrated I couldn't ever seem to find you online! LOL So now it's a game of tag to see who finds whom the quickest! Wink
