Half these replies to peoples' apps are pathetic and makes me wonder why anyone that was serious would even post a serious app or even app at all. So by posting an extremely unserious app, almost mocking some of the questions, could possibly be done as an attempt to fit in with the people that are replying to all of these. As far as checking gear, I like to see what you have and haven't downed and what gear someone gave you. If your sporting some nice pieces, then obviously someone thought you were worth a damn in game, otherwise, you were blowing the GM.A++
Only purpose apps serve is to inform applicants and the guild of what to expect, most often they don't need a reply, at least publicly on these forums.
I have refined and shortened our app a lot since I first made it like three years ago, but now a days people just need to show up and be a class we need; there is no attunement, there are dozens of PUGs to get geared up in, and the current content is almost eight months old, not to mention WLPH is damn near a sub-realm of Scilla.
I appreciate serious apps and do try and they do deserve a serious response given the time applicants put into them however.
