Quote: | Please look over this <a>thread</a> before starting your application.
Personal Questions
The following questions are aimed at helping us get to know you better as a person. Please be as detailed as possible, this means that we expect as much information as you can possibly provide us with.
How old are you?:
26
What gender are you?:
Male
What country do you live in?:
Canada
What time zone are you in?:
GMT-8:00
Which of the following below would best describe your current occupation?:
Full-Time Job
Do you have the ability to pay online fees?:
Yes
What motivates you to contribute and to strive for achievement?:
I look for a satisfaction when I play video games. I have an addictive personality which keeps me striving to improve myself and my team to it's fullest.
What are your strengths and weaknesses?:
I'm dedicated, I enjoy interacting with the guild, I don't really enjoy solo PVE, I have some dedications to life which will come before the game, I'm a fast learner, very technical player, I understand leadership and am respectful of it.
What interests and activities do you enjoy spending your time on?:
Other than video games, I enjoy outdoor activities (hiking, snowboarding, paintball). Motorcycles is my other hobby (riding, working-on).
Pax Republica Questions
These questions are aimed at helping us figure out if you're Pax Republica material, so be as detailed as possible.
How did you hear about Pax Republica?:
swtor official forums
Do you have a tendency to cuss a lot? :
no
How do you deal with stress and new players?:
laugh, teach, embrace. I try not to make people feel uncomfortable, I try to find the "funny" in situations, I don't fret on the past and current.
What are your expectations of the members and leadership of Pax Republica?:
I'm looking for a guild with members who like to socialize while playing. I don't expect perfection from a leader, however I do expect fairness and professionalism and respect towards members.
What do you believe you can contribute to Pax Republica's community?:
I believe I will be an active member which will contribute to both the pvp and pve side of the game. I also believe I will be a mature representation of the guild.
What was it about Pax Republica that encouraged you to sign up with us, rather than with another guild?:
The guild leader seemed to be mature adult with some leadership and professionalism, this website helps to add to the professionalism. The impression I received through ventrilo was that it wasn't about being an elitist guild but a fun social guild which could also have a serious end game aspect.
A non-guild member approaches you in game and begins talking smack to you. How do you react?::
ignore .. or dual ;)
You're in Ventrilo playing with other members but one member is being annoying, making silly noises and being obnoxious...what do you do? :
Depends on the situation, or how funny it is. I would be upset if it's interfering with other players or myself. If an officer is present I would expect them to take care of the situation by globally muting then moving that person to another channel to discuss how their actions are effecting the rest of the guild.
Star Wars: The Old Republic Questions
What is your SWTOR forum name?:
Otie
Have you previously been in another SWTOR guild? If so please include the Guild's name and your experience there.:
no

never
Which of the following interests you most?:
Socializing
Which of the following interests you second most?:
PVP
Which of the following interests you third most?:
Raiding

Yes
Do you promise to act with maturity, friendliness and courtesy towards all Pax Republica Members?:
Yes
Do you acknowledge that you must complete all the trial requirements given to you by the trial director to become a full member?:
Yes
In the future, what position would you like to hold?:
Regular Member
Is there anything else you would like to include as to why we should accept you as an applicant to Pax Republica?:
I talked with you on ventrilo. I'm sure you have received many applications in the past day. Please take my guild application seriously, This is the only guild I have applied to. I spend time reading the swtor forums but I don't post. I am likely going to play a DPS/Tanking class, I am looking for a guild which will consist players who enjoy group content and PVP, I'm also looking make friends within the guild to make the playing experience more enjoyable. Please pardon my grammar, spelling and punctuation. I hope to hear from you soon,
Otie
And lastly, are there any questions about the guild you would like answered?:
no questions at this time.

Going to let a few members post up comments before doing anything, but overall this is a very solid app, and I see no reason why we shouldn't accept it.
He has also taken the initiative to hop on vent with us and talk with us about the guild, which furthers the quality of his application.
