--Do you think your gear is enchanted and socketed correctly for raiding? Yes. I use a combination of EJ and Rawr to calculate the best gems/enchants for my gear.
--Describe your raiding gear stats unbuffed IF your armory might not be correct when we check it (please include gems and enchants): Ret – 5593 AP, 371 Haste (14.71%), 38.02% crit, and hit can expertise capped (with SoV glyph).
Prot – 45.1k health, 27643 armor, 583 defense, 29.66% dodge, 20.92% parry, 12.32% block, 3386 AP, hit capped (8%), and 32 expertise with SoV glyph.
Talents
--Preferred Talent Build: 5/11/55 – It’s a toss up between Divine Sacrifice and Aura Mastery. I prefer Divine Sacrifice in the case of lots of AoE damage that can be some what mitigated.
--Do you have gear for another spec? Yes. Prot (0/53/18). It is almost a cookie cutter tanking spec with the exception of I traded 1% crit chance to get SoC (aoe tanking).
--Would you respec to better fulfill your role in raids? Yes. I would fill in for a missing tank for the current content at any moment. I have never been holy though but I’m not saying I wouldn’t learn if that is what was needed.
Raiding Experience
--What type of WoW raiding experience do you have? Please list ALL encounters including Pre-BC, TBC and WotLK. Pre-BC – I was not seriously active. =[
BC – All while content was current. Kara – Cleared Gruul - Cleared Mag – Cleared SSC – Cleared TK – Cleared Hyjal – Cleared BT – Cleared SWP – My guild was only able to kill Kalecgos before WotLK was released.
WotLK – All while content was current unless noted. Naxx (10,25) – Clear Maly (10,25) – Clear Sarth3D (10,25) – Completed 25man 3D while current but not 10man while current. Ulduar (10,25) –Hard modes completed on 10man, still a few hard modes to go on 25man. ToC (10,25) – Clear ToGC (10,25) – 45 Chest on 10man, and guild was not pursuing 25man while it was current. ICC (10,25) – Currently 11/12 for 10man with many hours of attempts on Lich King. Currently 8/12 for 25man.
--WWS link I do not currently have one. I can make sure to have one Tuesday night if necessary.
Availability
--We raid 3-4 (or more) nights a week (Required evenings: Tues, Thurs & Sun) from 7:00PM - 11:00PM Server Time, can you handle that schedule? Yes. I have evening classes at a local community college on Mon and Wed nights until the end of April but apart from that I can pretty much offer 100% attendance disregarding emergencies.
--Do you have the time to farm for all your consumables to come prepared to every raid? Yes. I play pretty much all day except when I work or have my class.
Guild History/Personal
--Have you applied to Attrition in the past, or been a member of Attrition previously? I have not.
--List your prior Guild(s) and your reason(s) for leaving. What would they have to say about you(be as specific as possible)? I have been a Member of <Contempt> for quite some time now but sadly it has come down to just raiding on Tue because that is when everyone knows we down bosses and loot is given out. The officers have started to save the weekly quest and voa for other nights to bribe people to log on and that’s my limit. I don’t want to be playing the game and dedicating my time to show up for raids when others only show up for loot and say fuck you to progression. If you were to ask them about me you would get good comments. I show up to almost every raid (had 100% attendance for a good two months before I started classes) and am prepared for whatever we do. I am always competing with rogues and hunters for the top DPS spot and am used as a third tank whenever the fight calls for it.
--Do you mind constructive criticism? I don’t mind it at all. I think if someone offers me advice as to what I am doing wrong it would not only help me but the guild too.
--Do you currently have all the mandatory addons? I do.
--Why have you chosen to apply to Attrition? I have chosen Attrition because I believe I can help the guild further progress into ICC. I like where you currently are in progression and believe my knowledge of the Lich King fight from 10man can help with pushing for 25man.
--Why do you play World of Warcraft? I play because I believe it is a very fun and addicting game. I enjoy every aspect from PvE to PvP to achievements. I also don’t have many friends except for the ones who play WoW. And that bright thing in the sky always burns my eyes and skin pretty bad when I go outside too.
--List the members you know in Attrition and how you know them: I do not know any members of Attrition.
--Tell us more about who you are and why we should recruit you over someone else: I believe you should recruit me over anyone else because I play this game as a life style rather than a hobby. I come prepared and ready for anything thrown in my way. I play the paladin class as it should and I never let a cooldown go to waste. I am also not afraid to lose some dps to BoP, cleanse, or just throw a sacred shield on myself as long as it will save the raid from a wipe.
is it alright for me to post a wowheroes link? I dont like gearscore as much as you guys do but it shows all my prot and ret gear and my stats with them.

What's that supposed to mean?
I completely worded that wrong. I was simply trying to say that my armory is not working for some reason and that wow-heroes is a site where you can see my gear/stats/achievements similiar to my armory.

I promise we are not the slightest bit interested in what your gear score is
I know...I also hate "gearscore" and find it a completely waste of time to judge someone by. Whenever I offer my services of tanking or dpsing and someone says "gearscore?" I instantly ignore them.
Well this sucks. It looks like its the same with most armories too.
The only things I can think of is to type out all my gear and what enchant/gems and achievements and when I got them or to have one of the officers of Attrition to create a level one alt on Gul'dan and I can come to which ever starting zone and you can have a look.
