UI
Upload UI: 
Which addons do you consider essential and why?: 
I love the basic ones and feel they help tremendously cause we all get a little side tracked from time to time. I am willing to re-vamp my current ones for what you guys find more fitting.
PvE
Raid Experience: 

I have all level 80 instance experience, I know every 10 man fight and still have a pretty good memory on how each fight goes. Maly, Naxx, ToC, 10 and 25. I know ICC 10/25 for 11/12 so far, still no LK downing yet but I know the fight, just need a group that can get their crap together. I also have 7/12 ICC 10 heroic modes with my druid. I have a regular ICC 10 I run with and they are all pretty good people and know the fights.

As far as old school content goes I was in the first downing of Rag on my horde server, cleared through Black Wing Lair, then quit for AQ and Naxx. Came back with burning crusades and know most, if not all the fights up to Illidan.

Personal

I'll take the lack of comments as a "not interested" thanks for reviewing my app.  Next time a response of thanks but no thanks would do just fine.

Put it this way, no comments

Ghli — Fri, 09/10/2010 - 17:23

Put it this way, no comments lately means neutral on you. If we really were to flat out decline you, you would know about it the day that you applied (two days ago).

Just keep up updating us on your status and availability. Updating your UI with grid (and getting rid of healbot) is a way to let us know that you're serious about applying. On the other hand, please don't update us with your updated Gearscore. If we really did care about your Gearscore, there would have been a section for it.

You have to understand, there's a reason we have that question about if you have a problem about waiting 3 weeks to 3 months. Most apps tend to just post their app, and forget about it. We ask them in game about certain things, and they always do one of two things: blow off the questioner, or have a meaningful discussion.

Now that being said, like Jayel noted, we have 2 25 man raids, with certain raid times between 6-10 Monday to Thursday. We usually don't kick out regulars to bring out apps, especially regular healers that usually show up on time, ready to go. You applied as a healer. See the conflict? That doesn't mean your app isn't meaningful.

Now saying that, one of our raid on Wednesday did both RS and Ulduar(mace farming). The other was busy clearing bosses in ICC25 with hard modes up to Sindragosa on Wednesday, and did 14 heavy progression shots on Heroic Sindragosa on Thursday with every regular healer they had. If either needed a healer then, they would have called out in dfrecruit for a healer. I have an addon that tracks the time since a person has logged off, and it shows as you logging off 22 hours ago (unless you logged on in game in the last 4 hours). That would have put it at you being on at 7pm server. Were you in DFrecruit then if we needed healers?

Its only been..

Jayel — Fri, 09/10/2010 - 15:29

..two days since the last comment.  The app process can take a long time.  Many apps last a month or more and its up to you to be proactive with your application.  

I have a few tips for you going forward.

Have you joined our recruit channel? (if not its /join dfrecruit)  When our 10/25 mans are short on people they will almost always say something in that channel.  Also when people need more for randoms or the weekly they will look in the recruit channel.  

Being able to run stuff with us is your chance to show off your skills so be available during raid times (KB is Mon, Tues, Wed 6:30 - ~10 ST and Salmon is Tues, Wed, Thurs 6-9 ST).  We also have many 10 man raids that run through out the week.  

To my knowledge nobody has written you off yet but nobody is going to keep your app going but you.  If you really want to be apart of our community get active and get noticed.  Good luck from here on out!

Looks like you've been in the

Looks like you've been in the game for quite some time.  That's good.  You need some work on your UI.  Are you using any kind of healing mod?  Check out grid.  Download it and get used to it.  Once you've set it up right and toyed with it you will love it.  You'll thank me later. 

UI

attraction — Wed, 09/08/2010 - 16:06

Yes I do you some different add-ons. I actually use healbot which after reviewing grid they are VERY similar but healbout is just an add-on not a full UI re-vamp.  Gives me every partmember, pets, vehicles, colored bars to show degree of health loss, de-buffs on each target and it allows me to set up spells for each key-stroke/mouse combo point and click seletion.  I also use decursive and DMB as well as recount to keep track of slackers in the raid.

We really don't like people

Ghli — Wed, 09/08/2010 - 16:19

We really don't like people to use healbot in our guild. Everyone from tanks to dps and healers all use grid. If you insist on clicking on people to heal them, look at the addon clique.

UI

attraction — Wed, 09/08/2010 - 16:23

If everyone use's Grid then it's definetly something i'm going to look into soon as I get home.  Thats not a problem, I se e most tankspot vids and then all you're website pics all use it and it looks a lot cleaner.  Time for a change I guess!!

Seems like a lot of apps

Zevix — Wed, 09/08/2010 - 10:34

Seems like a lot of apps these days need to work on their UI's ^ ^.
