Welcome to our forum Arkayyne, thank you for the time you have spent on your application.


Your application is tad short, which is not really good, specially with our recruitment being closed or close to closed. Right now we are accepting only relly decent applications... and I also do have some questions to your application:

Arkayyne wrote:

What are your strengths and weaknesses?: Some strengths would be my sense of humor ingame, and my ability to work hard on my toon while having a good time.

Hmmmm... maybe some weaknesses? Or you don`t have any?

Arkayyne wrote:

How do you deal with stress and new players?: i'm pretty relaxed and like to help out new players.

While I do belive, that you are pretty relaxed person, I would still like to know how are you dealing with stress when it will get you?

Arkayyne wrote:

And lastly, are there any questions about the guild you would like answered?: What city are most of the core members out of?

If as core you mean those who were here at first, than there is no such city, we are all over the world

But city that holds most of our members is Vancouver I belive... 3 members are there

Sorry if my application was a bit too short. It was really late at night and I wanted to keep the clickety-clack of the keyboard to a minimum because of my wife and kids were sleeping. So let me tell you a little more about myself then. I served 4 years in the Air Force as a Satellite/Wideband tech. Stationed in England for 2 years and deployed for 1 in Kuwait. When I got out, I became a Deputy Sheriff for Orange County, CA. I'm still currently working as a Deputy. I'm assigned at the moment to a courthouse. My duty is to escort and watch inmates during high profile trials. I have a beautiful wife and 2 kids. The oldest will be playing Star Wars with me (when he finishes his homework first).

To answer your question about any weaknesses I have, I tend to spend too much time on something I enjoy. (working out, jiu jitsu, and playing games (xbox, PC, PS3, handhelds).
I deal with the stresses on the outside by working out, brazilian jiu jitsu, and hanging out with my family. I believe, I have a pretty good grasp of dealing with stress from my military and cop experience.

I would really like to be considered for Pax Republica, and am willing to give any more info you would like to learn about me.

Hello Arkayyne Your app was a bit short, but I read your second post and I understand why. So even though it was a bit short, I liked it, and you seem like a nice person! :D

May I ask, how old is your oldest child?

Hi Cynette,
My oldest child is 8 years old (Nathan), and my youngest is 2 (David). Thanks for understanding about the short application.

I like how everyone is so active on these forums. I'll have to try to access this forum on my iPhone so I can post while away from the computer.

I was rereading my application and saw the question of: "What are your expectations of the members and leadership of Pax Republica?"

I was a guildmaster in World of Warcraft back in the Burning Crusade, so I remember how hard it is to run a guild.

Some of the expectations I would have of the members of Pax Republica would be:

- A friendly environment in which we are able to have fun by joking around, but also while getting tasks completed.

- Contribution to the guild in the form of vault contributions, helping toons starting out, theorycrafting, forum posts, participating in raids, bringing in quality recruits, and building a good pvp team (my favorite).


Expectations of leadership of Pax Republica would be:

- Organized and good schedule of raids, pvp participation, pvp organization of teams

- Honest leadership with fairness and integrity

- A good functional website, forum, congregation area (this website is awesome, you guys have that covered)

- Filtering only quality members for Pax Republica (you guys have that covered also with this extensive application and Phase system)

I enjoyed reading your app and the following conversation. Always nice to see someone apply that is organized, well-spoken and writes with emotional maturity. I hope you make the trial!

[Jaycen Lightrider]

You sound like great people! Thank you for serving your country both in the military and as 5-0 .

I also respect a guy who loves his wife and still knows how hot she is!! I am the same way, and really think a man that loves, respects and cherishes his lady is a rare and wonderful thing!!

I know voting isn't open yet...but we have a keeper here folks!!

Here's hoping you become one of our Jedi Knight Brethren!

Hello Arkayyne, I like that you have been following up with your application its something a lot of applicants do not do. Also I think you have answered enough questions, so I won't ask you one. You have my support.

[Cloud Kanno]

Application accepted. A Trial Director will be around shortly to get you started. Good luck on your trial requirements!
