re: Congrats to Thorria, our newest Peacekeeper!

The application submitted by Love_Lightsabers is as follows:

Quote:

***Please look over this >>>> thread <<<< before starting your application.*** Before we get started, did you read the "How to Join PR thread" (linked above), and do you understand our application/Trial system? (It is mandatory to do so to be accepted!): Yes Age?: 37 Gender: Male Where are you from?: I now live in NY state, very northern part, at the border with canada What online game(s) do you play?: Former WoW player, now only play SWTOR for MMO What is/are your main characters in-game name(s)?: Thorria is my main pub side, zell and tyficia are close behind What class/role/specialization/characters etc. do you focus on (example: Sharpshooter Gunslinger, Holy Priest, sniper in Battlefront, etc.): usually healer, but can be tank or dps What level is your main character at this time?: all of my toons are 65 now :)

What interests and activities do you enjoy spending your time on both in and out of game?: I love doing PVE stuff like ops or FPs. I will only occasionally do pvp to reach personal conquest goal. I never buy pvp gear because of that. I have 16 toons on this server, 1 of every advanced class for both sides. Outside of the game I only have jobs, in fact I just recently got a 2nd job that I start tomorrow the 28th. How did you hear about Pax Republica?: had seen some ppl in fleet in it, plus was talked about in allies

What was it about Pax Republica that encouraged you to sign up with us, rather than with another guild?: The guild I was in seemed to be dying, last year they were organized and conquered 4 planets. This year some of the leaders had RL stuff happen, and it's gone down hill since. I joined you doing a HM SnV and liked what I saw.

Do you consider yourself a hardcore player, casual player, or somewhere in-between?: I'd say somewhere in between, I do love to play the game, but i'm not super serious. Are you part of any other guilds/clans? If so, whom? It is ok if you are!: 7/8 of my imp toons are in styx atm. the last one is in an erp guild named bloodmoon cult. If I stay with you guys I will move my other pub toons to you guys.

Have you ever been kicked from a guild for poor conduct, unruly behavior, or inactivity?: I'm usually pretty easy going, don't recall being kicked for conduct or behavior, but yes inactivity cuz I switched servers lol

Which of the following interests you most?: PvE Which of the following interests you second most?: Socializing Which of the following interests you third most?: Story When you've been in a guild a long time, do you usually stay a regular member, or do you end up in/aspire to be in a leadership position?: Leadership Position T

he following questions are to provide you with a quick insight regarding the trial requirements. Do you acknowledge that activity is key to our community and that failure to contribute to the community(every week unless on leave of absence) could result in possible removal from the guild?: Yes Do you promise to act with maturity, friendliness and courtesy towards all Pax Republica Members... and other SWTOR players?: Yes

Do you acknowledge that you must complete all the trial requirements given to you by the Pax Republica Officers to become a full member?: Yes True or False: You will re-visit the forums often over the next two weeks as you go through the Trials, and return within the next 48 HOURS to respond to any questions we have of you...: True Is there anything else you would like to include as to why we should accept you as an applicant to Pax Republica?: Honestly can't think of anything right now. Are there any questions about the guild you would like answered?: If you have an issue on tython, ord mantell, korriban, or hutta, is it a first world problem? (haha, just kidding, no I don't think so)

Once again to ensure you know how things work: "I read the "How to Join PR thread" (linked above), and I understand Pax's application/Trial system, activity rules, etc.": True

re: Congrats to Thorria, our newest Peacekeeper!

Welcome to your trial process for Pax Republica! Let's get started:

During this welcoming period you will have 14 days to complete some tasks that will acclimate you into the guild and help you decide if we are the right guild for you!

Then, there will be three days for guild members to vote on whether or not they believe you should be allowed to join.  Virtually no one gets voted no... usually by then someone that doesn't fit in has already been asked to end their trials.

(If you need your Trial to be extended a couple of days due to a trip, or a serious emergency, etc., please contact an Admin and be sure to let them know when you'll be back.)

If you have any questions during any phase of your trials, a lot of helpful information can be found HERE.

Please post in your thread whenever you complete a task.

Here are your tasks:

 Complete √ 1. Update your profile here at Pax Republica with a forum Avatar. ***NOTE***- Your avatar cannot be one of the generic default avatars that GuildLaunch gives you. It should be something unique so that it's easier to associate your name with some kind of image, this allows us to get to know you better.

Complete √ 2. Make an introductory post in the "New Member Introductions" area. Please use it as a chance to introduce yourself to the family, as this is a more permanent area for people to get to know you (your own "personal area" on the forums, if you will) than your application thread.

Complete √ 3. Either your Guild Launch user name should be your "main" character name in a Pax related game, or you should link your main character to your GL account, so that when people see your profile name and avatar on the forums, they also see your most often played character in SWTOR or whatever game so they can learn who you are. Here's how to do the latter:

  • Click on your name at the top right of the forums and hit "View Your Profile" in the pull-down menu.
  • See over to the right where it says "Stats"?  Click the link that says "Characters".
  • You may see a list of characters you've created on Guild Launch.  If you have already created a character with the name for your most commonly played SWTOR/WoW/etc. character (your main), go to the next step.  If not... click Add In-Game Info.  Fill out the fields to create your character.   
  • Now that your character is made, go to View Profile.
  • Click sites
  • Click "settings" under Pax Republica
  • Choose your main character and click "Post As".

Complete √ 4. Go over our Charter (our Rules and Regulations document) and be sure to post that you accept it. Please read it carefully BEFORE accepting. Click here for the Charter.

Complete √ 5. Log on in-game and whisper anyone of rank Justicar or above with your in-game name so we can add you to the guild. For a list of our rank structure and names of officers, please Click here.

Complete √ 6. Arrange an interview with an officer. The interview with be conducted in Teamspeak. The interview gives you the chance to meet with an officer and ask any questions you may have regarding your membership in the guild, and they will take the opportunity to get to know you better.

For a complete list of officers you can approach for an interview, Click here. It is YOUR responsibility to post in your trials thread that you need an interview and to let officers know what your schedule is so that they can offer to help you... or you can PM an officer to schedule your interview before Phase 1 is over. Please don't leave this until the last minute.

Complete √ 7. Group with Pax Republica members to complete dungeons/flashpoints, raids, PvP matches, questing, or any kind of group content with Pax Republica for around 2-3 total hours.  It is your job to post in this thread with what group content you complete with current Pax members. The point of this step is to get in groups with Pax members to get to know them, and for them to get to know you!

► Voting Phase

8. Members will have 3 days to vote on whether you have passed or failed as a member, so sit back and relax!

While you wait to pass your trials, you should check out the entire forums if you haven't already.  If you're a raider, be sure to read all the PvE forums - raiding guidelines, DPS parses, etc.  You should post in the PvE forums a thread saying you're interested in raiding with your time availability, current gear level, class, talent spec, how many datacrons you've collected, if you have companion bonuses, etc. Same thing with PvP or GSF... post in those forums with similar information if you're interested!

This is also a time you can ask around about how to join our Pax Republica Facebook Group and our Pax Republica GroupMe Channels.

 

 

Good luck!

Love the application and that is an awesome question! Since you joined us for SnV we can move you straight to the trial process, but don't be surprised if people ask you questions about you to answer!

 

What is your favorite Star wars movie? and why?

re: Congrats to Thorria, our newest Peacekeeper!

My favorite SW movie is episode 3, not only was it better than 1 and 2, it had an awesome tag line.  After watching the trailers and seeing the line "sith happens" it cracked me up and i had a good laugh for a couple minutes.  It made me so happy that I went and looked up and bought some items with that saying.  Got a hat, a pin, and a T-shirt all with "sith happens" on them. :)

re: Congrats to Thorria, our newest Peacekeeper!

Thorria,

It looks like your trial ends today but we still have a few outstanding tasks that need to be completed:

* Is Thorria your main?  If so, I can mark step 3 complete

* Make sure that you read and sign the guild charter. you can find that here --> http://pax-republica.guildlaunch.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7125174&gid=118791

* Officer interview - If you still need your interview with an officer, I am available all day today to conduct that at any point.

If you have any other questions or issues, just let me know and I will see how we can accommodate.

re: Congrats to Thorria, our newest Peacekeeper!

Sorry I couldn't be online yesterday.  I tried to download the new patch but it used up too much of our daily cap, I had to stop the download and unplug from the internet so we didn't use up too much more.  We are on satellite internet and have a daily cap of 900mb.  Fortunately they give us an unlimited download time from 2am-7am eastern time.  I set my alarm for 2 and start getting it then.  Anyway back to your questions, for 1 yes, I consider Thorria my main, altho I've been busy trying to gear up my other toons.  2, I have just done that, and 3, maybe sometime this evening (or this afternoon if we happen to be online at the same time)

Thorria

Your application has now entered the voting stage. You need at least 5 votes for acceptance. Any 'No' votes must be offset by 3 yes votes. The 'I don't know' votes don't count as Yes or No. All voting is anonymous. Feel free to campaign for yourself in game or in TS over the next 3 days.

As a side note, there is a secret way  (or not so secret way) to get one free Yes vote for yourself, IF you study the header of this thread well enough.

Good Luck!
