| D_Boy said: This should help. World of Warcraft. I know it isn't a person...but I hate it anyway. No...I never played it, and I never will. How do I know I hate it...here's how...I read that to join some Guilds, you have to send them a resume, then have an interview or some shit, then if you qualify, you are part of the Guild. What the Holy Fuck? I have never heard anything as ridiculous as that right there. Also....more like World of Latecraft: The Lich King misses his Dentist Appointment. |
You find that kind of attitude in any MMO, not just WoW, and that isn't representitive of the entire community. The good thing about most MMO's is you can let the jerks go off and be jerks while you do your own thing.
Also, it's not unusual for any guild or whatever to have some sort of requirements, resume, or questionaire. For instance, in FFXI, this is the application for a Dynamis linkshell (guild) I'll eventually be a part of when I get my act together:
1. Please read all the Conduct and Membership Rules before filing out an application.
2. It will take no less than 10 Days from the time you finished filing out an application before we contact you.
3. If you fail to answer all the questions properly your application and membership will be rejected.
4. We will contact you either on a monday or thursday night during the events time only, if we cannot get a hold of you during that time your application will be rejected.
5. We do not have to provide you with a reason for rejecting your application but we will inform you of it.
6. If you claim to have read the rules and haven't your membership will be terminated.
