Also, please answer the following questions in a few sentences or so:

1. Cenarius has many excellent raiding guilds. Why are you choosing to app to DE, instead of any other guild on the server? What are your goals in DE? Why should we tag you and what qualifies you to be in DE? (Note to server transfers: answer this question particularly thoroughly)
I have been in DE before I love the raid environment and I love the people with in the guild. I hope to really show what I got, and show the guild the performance I was suppose to do be for I took a leave. I hope that the experience that I have had in the future can really help the guild and hope that will help me to be tagged as a DE member.

2. What do you use as your secondary spec (you do have one, right?), and how do your talent choices in that spec potentially benefit the raid? Which of the roles are you mainly interested in - would you possibly be interested in taking different roles within a raid depending on encounter? Do you have the gear to support this second spec? AS a hunter I am strictly DPS and am Marksman ATM I am talented in both MM and Sur. I can play both very well just would need to gem different for surv.

3a. What stats and criteria do you use when gemming your gear - do you always, sometimes, or rarely satisfy socket bonuses?
I usually satisfy socket bonuses and am very fond of agi and crit

3b. What are two things you could do *outside of raids* to improve your character and really make your Armory profile stand out from someone of the same class and progression?
Lvl my profession and gather materials for the raid

3c. What two non-set, non-weapon items from Icecrown-25 are best for your class and main spec, and why? Carapace of Forgotten Kings Just a really good chest piece stat wise and being able to customize with that many sockets is amazing.
Whispering Fanged Skull such a fantastic Trinket... I have the hit trinket ATM and it is really terrible.

4. Raiding requires a certain mentality and attitude towards approaching a fight. Are you able to take criticism and suggestions about your spec, gear, or play, and are you able to learn to change or adjust accordingly? Are you able to critically look at a given attempt and see what went wrong, and what could be improved? Do you show up with a positive attitude, a willingness to cooperate with your peers, and the required consumables and knowledge of the fights ahead? Yes, yes, and yes

5. What are our raid times, and what kind of attendance (percentage-wise) can you hold? Did you read and understand the stickies posted in our forums?:
6:00pm to 10:30pm server time on Sunday through Thursday and expect 80% attendance rate from applicants

6. Is there anything else about yourself or your character that you'd like to share (i.e. tradeskills, pvp, special circumstances, anything we left out)? nope
