Natural Order Introduction

Tell us about your character(s)....

 1. What games are you looking to join us in? Well world of warcraft for sure. I do tho have an active subscription for Star Trek, I play Starcraft also and when Diablo 3 comes out I plan on being in it aswell. I also play Guild Wars.

2. Do you have characters on our servers already? If so list the ones you have which you plan to guild. 

Name: Zannzibarr
Class: Paladin
Level: 85
Primary Spec: Protection
Off-spec: Retrubution

Tell us about your gaming history...

3. What previous and current MMO's have you/do you play? Well i started way back in regular Diablo. That was the first "MMO" style game i got into as a kid. I went back and forth from that to Starcraft for a while, got into Diablo 2. For a while i got out of gaming and played sports, but when Guild Wars came out I got sucked back in by a friend of mine. I played in the beta for Guild Wars and bought World of Warcraft not to long after it came out. Been with WoW ever since, tho I have had my on and off periods with it but it has been my mainstay for gaming since it started.

4. Describe what makes a good gamer, in your opinion: A good player to me is not someone who knows everything but in fact is someone who is wanting to learn, wanting to be there have fun and wipe a few times to learn what to do and what not to do. Someone who can laugh about a mistake and learn from it.

5. On a scale of 1 to 10 tell us how good a gamer are you, and why? I will say a 5, I am not perfect i have my flaws like anyone else. I am always learning and i do not see myself as leet or better then anyone else just because i have been playing a game longer then someone else.

6. Have you been in any other guilds on servers which we play on? How about in other games or on other servers? Which? Why did you, or why are you leaving them? Basically we're looking for a basic history that you've had with guilds previously.

- Dreanor: Last Standers, a good group of people, all mature but lack of people showing up killed our raiding and our guild. The guild leader was military and when he got called up we call went out seperate ways

- Archimode: ???: I honestly do not recall the guilds name from this one, i was there maybe a month on and off due to school and work keeping me busy before i transfered off to farstriders.

- FarStrider: None: I have not been in a guild since comign her to meet up and play with a friend of mine who has not been on for a while.

All the guilds and i was in before these were apart of Dreanor, its the server i started on when i came to wow and I can not recall every guild i have been with since I started playing. I wasnt being on raiding or much till about two years or so ago now.

7. What do you like to do with your time in WOW or SWTOR? I do my wow dailies for the most part, come on and see fi i cant find a guild to get back into the swing of things. Learn to tank again get my gear up to date and have fun in heroics.

I did beta test SWTOR for a while but i have to think if i will be joining it in December or not.

Talk to us about Natural Order...

8. How did you hear about Natural Order? In trade chat in orgimmarr, i was putting out a message saying i was looking for guild and someone from the guild sent me an Im telling me to check out the site.

9. Is there a current member of Natural Order who could reference you in a good or bad way? (Who?) Nope, not that i know of.

10. Have you read all of the posts in the About Natural Order section of the forum? (this is very important to us) yes I have been thru each of the posts in the About Section.

11. What are your expectations? What do you think you will gain from joining Natural Order, and why are you applying? As far as what i am lookign for is simple. To make some new friends, learn something about the game I enjoy and have fun. thats all i really want.

12. What do you think you can bring to the guild? Why are we going to be happy you joined us? Im laided back and gentle natured, I can joke and have fun.

13. Are you interested in "end game activities" with us in any of the games we play (such as 25 man raiding in WOW)? What days are you available for these sorts of activities (generally between 9pm and 12pm Eastern Standard Time)? That would vary week to week with my work times and days off. i do want to raid when i can but i dont expect to be in progression or anythign new right off.

14. If you are interested in raiding with us in WoW, are you willing to build a secondary set on this character, and respec as necessary (generally to dps) if the raid needs it, without bitching excessively? Yeah i am willing to do that, i and prot/dps on my pally and I enjoy playing both specs so it would not be a huge issue to do that if i needed to.

Tell us about you...

16. How old are you, if you don't mind us asking? as i said above, 25 years old.

18. Do you know what parachute pants are? yes i do, they are pants from the 60's or 70's if my memory servers me correctly.

19. If the answer to 18 is yes, did you ever own any? nope to young for that but i did find a pair my dad owned when i was younger.

20. If the answer to 19 is yes, do you still own them? I think he thru them out after I made a cape out of them when i was a kid, didnt take to me cutting them up to well.

21. If the answer to 20 is yes, dear god why? if i did it would be funny i guess

Nice app. Our guild leader also likes to go hunting occasionally, so I'm sure you could find something to talk about there. I recall seeing you asking around in trade as well earlier - we were all there because we'd just got a guildie the legendary staff.

A lot of people here are planning to play SWTOR when it releases. What did you think of it when you got to play? Things you liked? Things you were all, "meh"?

 

We have a 24hr period for new app reviews, so be sure to check back to see if anyone else has replied to you. Thanks! :)

I enjoyed SWTOR when i had

I enjoyed SWTOR when i had the chance to play, the Sith Warrior was well balanced i thought. Did not really try any of the other classes tho i would like to see a Wookie sith maybe a jawa sith.. that would be funny. I saw that, congrats on the staff for the guildie.

Sometimes...

something comes along and makes you feel old.  The answer to #18 did that, but in a funny way at least.  welcome

Never know what you will find..

Zannzibarr's picture

I think i was like five or six at the time when I found those, growing up small town Iowa man ya didnt have much to do. So we used what we could find to play games with and well those pants  for me were cool as a kid, no one my age knew what they really were at the time but they were fun to use for a superhero or villian at the time.. I think I played as a villian.. not sure its been forever now.

"F#$% Her Gently"

This is a song for the ladies
But fellas listen closely
You don't always have to f&^% her hard
In fact sometimes that's not right to do
Sometimes you've got to make some love
And f*&^ng give her some smoochies too
Sometimes ya got to squeeze
Sometimes you've got to say please
Sometime you've got to say hey
I'm gonna F*&^ you softly
I'm gonna screw you gently
I'm gonna hump you sweetly
I'm gonna ball you discreetly
And then you say hey I bought you flowers
And then you say wait a minute sally
I think I got somethin in my teeth
Could you get it out for me
That's fucking teamwork
What's your fave posish?
That's cool with me
It's not my favorite
But I'll do it for you
What's your favorite dish?
I'm not gonna cook it
But I'll order it from Zannzibarr
And then I'm gonna love you completely
And then I'll f*&^ing f&^k you discreetly
And then I'll f#$%ing bone you completely
But then I'm gonna f@#$ you hard
Hard

Okay, so I only NEEDED the 5th from last line for the reference... but when do I ever hold back? 

So the million dollar question... did the song inspire your toon, or did your toon inspire the song?

 

I think it says bad things about me...

Warfury's picture

...that this is one of my favorite songs to sing at karaoke... >.>

honestly?

Zannzibarr's picture

Well to be honest neither really, Zannzibarr is a name I have used since my table top gaming days of D&D, Deadlands and other old games no one really bothers to play anymore since its not done by a computer.. I heard the song and laughed when i realized the name and the spelling were almost the same if not the exact same.

Na...

Bhuta's picture

I embelished the spelling a bit, an extra "n" here and "r" there.  But D&D, those were the days--to be the cool kid, you had to have the coolest dice.  I started RPG's back in the paper days too, but succombed to the computer when Kings Quest came out.  You still do the table top thing?  What prompted you to switch?

Cheers!
