Hi my name's Mark, I'm 25 as of about six weeks ago so it looks like I just scrape in on the requirements. I'm applying to join your Rift guild on the Wolfsbane-Defiant shard. I'm currently with a guild called Esprit de Corps which I've really enjoyed but the guild has been struggling for numbers and the decision was made to look for a similar guild with more members and TOG looks like the right place.
I've been a console gamer my whole life going back to my good old original NES with Mario Bros and Duckhunt on the same cartridge (which I still have tucked away somewhere). I mainly played soccer games through each different console with the odd new Medal of Honor or GTA thrown in along the way.
I got into MMO's about 3 years ago through WoW and spend the majority of that time raiding with a good group of guys that I met in game. We tried to stick together through the latest expansion but everyone was burnt out with WoW and most of us ended up leaving the game.
I'm a fire systems Electrician and my job demands some very long days which means I don't get as much time for gaming as I used to. The limited time I do get online I'd like to spend around mature likeminded people without the hassle and nonsense that can come with MMO's. I'm confident that I've found that here.
I also spend a lot of time involved in soccer. I've been coaching juniors for 8 years and still play for the Mens team on Saturdays (whenever I'm not working).
Oh and I live in Melbourne, Australia.
Thanks
