PostSubject: [APPLY FOR GM HERE]   Sat Aug 08, 2009 2:34 am

It has been brought to my attention that the majority of the posts on our application pages are simple copy+paste jobs from previous threads. The reason that this new thread was created is because we felt the old ones were stale, stagnant, and didn't truly represent the candidates.

To join the staff, here is the information you must provide and what is required of you. The more details you provide, the easier it is for us to evaluate you as a potential member of the Embers Team:
  • Your age
  • Your timezone (offset from GMT)
  • Experience playing WoW (years, patches, official vs private, etc)
  • Technical experience (MySQL, C++, any EMU GM commands)
  • How will you contribute as a staff member (this is not technical, but all-encompassing)?
  • How are you connected to Embers of the Legion (characters, past and present, former servers, etc)?
  • What is your favorite color? (sorry couldn't resist...DNA ftw!)
When you answer these fields, please keep in mind that we view our staff as a tight-knit group. We are a team, and as such, we support each other! Those who cannot compromise, work in a group environment, or have an open mind NEED NOT APPLY.

Your age: 16

Your timezone (offset from GMT): GMT - 8(PST)

Experience playing WoW (years, patches, official vs private, etc): I have been playing WoW for about three years. Started back on KL when it was on patch 2.3. I have played on retail a bit since then, but never really liked it so I stopped.

Technical experience (MySQL, C++, any EMU GM commands): I can say that I have had quite a bit of experience using ArcEMU and Mangos commands. I know basically every command there is on ArcEMU and Mangos and have used them all while messing around on my own private servers. But I have no experience with MySQL or C++. Though I will be learning C++ as soon as I can.

How will you contribute as a staff member (this is not technical, but all-encompassing)?: I think I would be a good disciplinary GM/world channel moderator. I would also be willing to learn how to fix bugged quests and fix any bugs I run into. It shouldn't be too long before I have it down. I am a very fast learner.

How are you connected to Embers of the Legion (characters, past and present, former servers, etc)?: As I said I used to play on KL and I left once it started to go downhill, but then I was talking to Xiri over Xfire and he told me about the server so I checked it out. I have a few characters: Xiather; Xiagruka; Xianide; and Xiakau. All of them are Horde and in the Twilight Initiative guild.

What is your favorite color? (sorry couldn't resist...DNA ftw!)
Dark Blue!

-Experience in Wow
I started playing in the burning crusade patches so like anything 2.x
I have never had the good fortune to experience a real wow server so that is why i love playing on blizz like server Razz ive been playing world of warcraft for about a few years (2-4) and ive always been enjoying it Very Happy
-Technical experience
I was a gm for about a year in a server... i learned every command possible Razz but the server was in the burning crusade time and not the wrath of the lich king time Razz. Currently i am helping my brother set up his server its all set up hes just trying to make it public (i dont think its gonna get a lot of ppl xD) so yea i got a lot of experience as an in game GM Very Happy
-How are you connected to Embers of the Legion
Through Knights Legion ofcourse it was the most amazing experience i ever had and im searching for that amazing experience on this server Very Happy I also love all my awesome friends that ive made on server and their the reason i keep coming back i just cant seem to stop playing wow xD
What is your favorite color?
Red Very Happy i truly just love the color of red. It is the color of love and passion and when ever i see it on something it just makes me so happy Very Happy.
Seemed like the application was missing something so just gonna write it here Razz
The things i plan to change in the server are
1) Truly i will change the spirits in the server Very Happy i noticed during a certain time (forgot the time period xD DOH) the server gets so quite and so gloomy Sad i will fix this gloomyness with Embers own creative events!!! Very Happy in the servers i was GM in i always loved making events and watching people just go crazy over winning and not even care about the prizez xD i love that stuff Very Happy
2)My guild mates need some new instances to OWN Very Happy so i would want to maybe help out with that stuff on the old server i fixed some ingame buggs with my ingame powers Razz like if an npc was missing i added him after making sure and if some sort of item was missing i created an quest item vendor and put it next to the quest npc for help Very Happy im not sure how i am with DB's cuz ive never actually fooled around with one but i hope ill be able tooo Very Happy
3)Quests...i saw a lot of bugged quests in northrend (only 3 right now xD) and ive got some ideas on how to fix them their a simple fix and im sure even if i dont make gm ill be glad to help Very Happy
Truly yours Deathlife
Ps: tell me how you like my sig Razz....I used 20 smileys in one application!! Razz (21) Very Happy(22) lol gonna stop now

Age : 17

Time zone : 4 hours GTM

Experience playing wow : I've been playing wow from before burning crusade on blizzard for about three months before my mom said it's to expensive so she stopped playing untill bc when my cousin introduced me to private servers that he got off a torent which was none other than knights legion >Very Happy and have been playing till this day.

Technical experience : well I have owned my owned my own server for quite a while but decided to discontinue you because I didn't have a proper host nor could I afford one. Like deathlife who was one of my gms the best one I had I learned every command up to 3.0.9. I've been a gm on naxpgaming for about 6 months but I left because the other gms were very seldomly on and late for their shifts and when they were on they were afk and I had to deal with everything myself which got annoying. I also am good with lua programming language, mysql is as easy as things get, and I am pretty good with fixing small stuff never really attempted anything huge.

Favorite colour : blue or green... Yes blue that's the one

Well I can help out in game a heck of a lot after assessing the problem and testing it
myself and then help the player or just come up with a solution


Well that's my application hope u liked it

Ps I'm making this application in advance as I am currently out of hue country

i know i haven't been here for too long and i'm coming completely out of the blue here but i'm hoping to make things run more smoothly in game.

* Your age
16

* Your timezone (offset from GMT)
Mountain Timezone

* Experience playing WoW (years, patches, official vs private, etc)
I've been playing for about 1.5-2 years now. I started out on Knights Legion and eventually moved to Prowlers. I'm not sure exactly when I came in but I have know experience prior to Burning Crusade.

* Technical experience (MySQL, C++, any EMU GM commands)
I'm unsure of most commands but I am a quick learner.

* How will you contribute as a staff member (this is not technical, but all-encompassing)?
With the amount of completable quests and quest chains available, I'm hoping to track down and fix any problems with quest items, locations, and kills.

* How are you connected to Embers of the Legion (characters, past and present, former servers, etc)?
I found and joined the Knights Legion server over a year ago and recruited a couple of friends along with me who got to know many of the members of the server before we eventually moved to the Prowlers server. Later when the population of the server plummeted, I tagged along with the rest of the Prowlers who migrated here.

* What is your favorite color? (sorry couldn't resist...DNA ftw!)
I have never really had a set favorite color, so I'll just say BLUE, to amuse you.

PostSubject: Application   Fri Aug 14, 2009 2:08 pm

Your age: 25

Your timezone (offset from GMT): -5

Experience playing WoW (years, patches, official vs private, etc): Played on Blizz during beta testing and for about 2 years, took a break for half a year and played again for another year on Blizz, now I have been playing since on this server and I love it!

Technical experience (MySQL, C++, any EMU GM commands): I have several talents in the computer industry because I work in it, I do not have any GM experience in and of itself but I used to run a Counter-Strike server as an administrator so I understand the scripting and general scripting command structure. I'm a very fast learner which is cliche to say but it's true, I'm self-motivating in work, my personal life, and in-game, and I'm always ready to take constructive criticism and improve the way I do things.

How will you contribute as a staff member (this is not technical, but all-encompassing)? I will strive to keep people happy while making sure everyone is being civil with each other, bust most of all I will lend a helping hand. I think my primary focus would be to take care of those early morning hours (Between 8:00AM GMT -5 and 3:00PM GMT -5) when there's not usually a GM on.

How are you connected to Embers of the Legion (characters, past and present, former servers, etc)? Joined this year around March I believe, I'm in the guild POTL and I've known everyone just about as long as I've been here.

What is your favorite color? (sorry couldn't resist...DNA ftw!) It changes everyday, today it's Green :-)

Yes I'm applying again, yeys embers!

Age: 19
Timezone: GMT
Experience playing WoW: Since WoWEmu 1.1.0 for a long long time, since a little before KL started, not sure exactly, but a long long time.
Technical Experience: Experienced with MySQL and with Mangos/WoWEmu rather well, been awhile since I did anything so would take me a little time to get back into the swing of it, learn commands for current server kit.
How I will compensate: Well I'll work to keep events occuring, keep players interested which will hopefully stop them from whining atall, I'll also work in any area I can on the technical/development/bug fixing side of things to lesson the work on other GMs. Hopefully I can help keep spirits up aswell, as I know Staff is a pain in the a** at times Razz
How are you connected to Embers: Well I have a stack of characters, Butch and Renegade are probably most well known, I have been here since embers started, worked with the original staff of embers to help get it up and running (although Den did just about all the work I just watched and pointed at things with a spikey stick) I know most of the staff/players rather well, and I used to play and Dev/GM KL while I was there for a long time.
Favourite Colour: PINK! THE COLOUR OF POWA!

Notes: Just one more thing, I will be spending alot of time with my gf and (hopefully) at work, meaning I won't be available all the time. I'm sure this will serve as a rather nasty little problem, so I'm letting you know in advance.

Applying to be a GM!

Age: 22

Timezone:Eastern Standard Time (EST -5)

Experience:Been playing since 0.8 beta of WoWEmu on the server before it became Knights Legion. (aprox 4 years)

Technical experience:: I am familiar in MySQL in both a professional environment and WoW Emulation. Hosted Knights Legion so I am also familiar with the workings of a server including scripting, patching, database editing, linux, some PHP and web hosting, GM commands and their functions. I have experience with WowEmu,Mangos,Ascent, and Trinity Core Emulation including UDB Database. I have been a GM (or higher) for 3 1/2 of those 4 years of playing.

How will you contribute as a staff member:I am willing to provide constant assistance to players no matter what Im doing. I also feel I can aid in the inner workings of the server including in dept quest fixing via SQL, patch testing, and other development duties if needed.

How are you connected to Embers of the Legion:I was part of the original Knights Legion community, and the server before it Platinum Prison. On those servers I was known as Ronux, and here the same. I have 3 levels 80s and 2 characters a work in progress.

What is your favorite color?: ORANGE FTW!

Age: 27

Timezone: Eastern Standard Time (same time the server is)

Experience: I've played Blizz servers for 3+ years, started playing it back during lvl 60 cap ended up quiting due to RL during TBC, which I also endgame raided for right at a year. This is the first private server I've played on besides the private server I used to run to allow my guild to get framilar with the layout of a new encounter along with working on strats for boss fights. I've only been on this server for a short time really, a few months

Technical Experience: The server I had ran on the Mangos core. I have xp with php webdesign so I know how to work with a mySQL database, have about 5 years easy xp with that. I have about a year's xp with GM commands atleast for TBC.

How will you contribute as a staff member: Well I'd be able to provide assistance to those who needed help with something only a GM is able to provide, I already help out with some problems ingame players have if I am able to do something to help. With the hours I am ingame I see time spans where there are no ingame GM's. I learn fast, so once I get adjusted it won't be a problem for me fixing bugs. I'm always up to testing of instantances. I'm one who can fill most any place that's needed, if I don't know something I teach myself by reseaching and playing around with it.

How are you connected to Embers of the Legion: As I've stated above, I've really only been here for a few months but most people ingame know me. I currently only have one lvl 80 but have others I'm currently working on.

Favorite color: Blue the one color everyone who knows me IRL see's me in, lol.
