For 24 we're looking for something a bit more evil and bloody. We have members who won't allow this application to be accepted until you describe how you'd physically "eliminate" your opposition if you needed to....Do your worst...

As far as raiding, it seems to be your focus. You should know that while we run lots of raids, we only have two main progression raiding nights, one for 10 mans, and one for 25 mans. Generally on Tuesday and Thursday from 8pm server till about 11pm server. We'll hit ruby sanctum or have a lower citadel alt run on another night, or an old school raid, but generally the only times we're in upper citadel in ICC are on those two nights. We are hoping to get LK down before Cata, and I think we can do it, but it's not like we have him on farm or anything. Because of that, we can't guarantee any raid spots. If you get in the guild, sign up for a raid, show up early for signups, there is a solid chance you'd get to go, but at this point we have alot of people in the guild who have been working for months towards the goal of getting in on a Lich King kill and we're going to bring those people over the newer ones who are joining now looking for a LK kill.
Again I'm not saying that you won't get to raid, we'll have opportunities, but I'm just letting you know up front that we aren't suffering for people, and I'm not going to force sit someone who has been helping us progress over the past few months, in favor of a new person just coming on board now. There's as good a chance you'd be on the bench on progression raiding nights as you would be getting a spot.
You should be aware of that.
To be honest
We love seeing new people in the guild but we also want to make sure this is the right place for you as well. As tal said this guild is not really a raid guild. We aren't pushing LK every night and we don't want to do that.
If you love to raid and that is where you get the most fun out of the game, I would suggest a complete server transfer. This server just does not have a strong raiding foundation horde side. I hear alliance side is better but then you have to be alliance (eww).
