[DONE] Meets and Greets.

[Heretikzer0]

Heya folks. Someone from TOG pointed me over here in this direction, so I'd thought I'd post up and give it a whirl. My handle is Heretikzer0, and I am 37 years old. I work as a chef by day and cleanse virtual worlds of evil by night (when I can get away with it). I was born in Detroit, MI (USA) but have recently moved to Boston to escape economic issues. I am currently playing SW:TOR but I am pretty much a lifer when it comes to gaming. I've played EQ, EQ2, Anarchy Online, City of Heroes, Guild Wars, WoW, and a smattering of others here and there. I tend to prefer RPG's over most other games. I was addicted to gaming shortly after 5 years old. I had a babysitter who was very much into Star Wars, and we played a version of Roleplaying using a memo pad and a UNO deck instead of dice. I started video gaming when it became available; Programming it on basic for commodore PET's and such. I played games like Pong, Zork, Nethack, and remember reading my 'Choose Your Own Adventure' books and the Lone Wolf series. I've played more games then Hoyle, and am a storehouse of utterly useless knowledge. I am looking to join TOG because for all my time spent as a rebellious teenager, the older I get the less I understand them. I am not sure how that happened, but it did. I tend to not join guilds because I've had so many bad experiences with some. The ones I did enjoy were hardcore raiding guilds with people my own age, who understood what good old fashioned gamer snark was all about. I do occasionally enjoy some light to moderate roleplay in MMO's as well as PvP when it suits me. I have a loooong time friend of mine (Mesar) who is already a member, who can vouch for my kind of crazy. I am a caterer in real life, and anyone who understands a 60 hour work week with barely enough time for yourself and/or your partner (thank heavens my lady is a gamer too!) knows what a real dampener that can be on a real time circle of friends. Looking forward to meeting some of you.

Strange. Seems the breaks between paragraphs didn't post correctly.

Hello Heretikzer0,

you have not ticked all the boxes in the user control panel and until they all have been I can not process the application any further.

if you could click on the link above "user cp" and check the entries there that are needed we can continue with this application.

Definitely appreciate the attempt to break the text into paragraphs Sorry to see that the site didn't treat the input well.

I use Mozilla to view this site, but other then the drop down for mood, I am not sure what boxes you are referring to. I use Mozilla NoScript as well, and even with the main site enabled sometimes it blocks things like that. Any advice?

For reference:

After clicking around various things, deeper into the CP, did you mean the profile link? I clicked yes on "I have read the FAQ." Was that what you had meant?

Any word yet?
