Application: Tinolan - DONE

Post by Tino »

Name: Mark
Age: 42
Nationality: British (UK)
Tell us a bit about yourself:
Well im married with 2 kids (daughters 8 going on 18 and sons 14 going on 10!! ).
I work for BT in a data centre as a data centre engineer and in my spare time (what little there is) i like going to the pub and all the other usual stuff people my age i presume enjoy doing 8).
Ive been playing MMORPGs now for ages, infact since Everquest came out where i played on the Druzzil Ro (US) server, from there i passed over to Dark Age of Camelot, then to WoW and finally over to LoTRO (though i gave it a months play when first released), with beta testing quite a few inbetween, ive been a leader and officer of guilds, plus even semi-Hard core rading guild in the past.
All that passed i now enjoy playing a more casual game where i can chat with like minded people, quest and help others and should raiding occur perhaps join in with some of that too (if i can get the free time).
Im looking for a guild who are quite laid back but mature enough to help a new player into the game and should be willing to show how to play their class and not humiliate us noobs too much.
Currently levelling a hunter as i found it the most direct way into learning the land/lore andf hopfully playing it correctly.
(please no hunter hate)

What is your previous LoTRO experience (including previous kinships)? none (1 months play on release)
Why do you want to join The Elders? see above notes
What do you plan to do with your time (e.g. raiding, levelling, questing)? mixture of everything but probably raiding the least.

About your LOTRO character:

Name: Tinolan Darkwood
Class: Hunter
Level: 52+
Trade skills: Forester

Regards
Mark (Aka Tinolan)
:fhnt:

PS hope to hear from you soon :)

Thanks for the app Tino. Normally you'd be straight in, as you sound like a good fit for us. However, we do try and only have a small number of recruits at any one time, to allow people to settle in. We'll certainly put you in the 'pending' pile and once a slot is free you're in. Keep an eye out in game for any Elders and watch here, as we will update this thread when the time is right.

PS - comments re hunter hate noted, we make no promises ;)

Well,,, how to break this to you... but, Tinolan Darkwood, doesnt sound bloody dwarvish to me :)

I think chances of pointy ears and a tendency to say poetically whimsical stuff whilst looking moodily into the sunset are high.

Hi Tinolan, and welcome!

We will have a Recruit space for you on 9th February. I hope that's ok for you - but we have a full complement of Recruits at the moment.

Someone will contact you, yes, although it won't necessarily by your mentor. If you're not online we will just keep you on Friends List and contact you when you do come online.
