TOG - The Older Gamers

Hi. I would like to become a member of TOG.

First, I am over 25 years of age and have read the AUP and FAQ. I agree with what I have read and am happy to adhere to them.

I have been playing World of Warcraft since April of last year. Sanshiro which is my forum nickname came from my first character which has its beginning on Dunemaul. In Dunemaul, I used to belong to a guild with firefighters from the fire department I volunteer with.

Sanshiro is a level 60 Tauren Warrior, now, on Drak'thul. I also have one of each class between level 30-34 on Drak'thul and level 26 Night Elf Hunter on Alleria. I am willing to transfer characters in order to join TOG Guild

My level 60 warrior has gone through only handful of raids and instance runs because, as you understand, I want to be able to be there for my family while having fun playing WoW. So I chose not to participate in instance runs and raids that held me up for a long time. For the same reason, I currently do not belong to a guild.

Now the game has gone up to patch 2.0 and expansion ready to come out, I am happy with the changes Blizzard has made in PVP and Honor system. I feel like i can get a nice item without playing 24/7. So I am looking foward to enjoying the game.

I am looking for a great time playing WoW in the relaxed atmosphere without immature languages and behaviors while having opportunity to do some high level instances and raids including Battle Ground for nice weapons/armors and profession leveling .

I live in Austin, Texas with my wife and 2 kids. I play most of the time in the evenings. However, I do not play on Sundays unless I am playing WoW with my family.

I started playing video games when I was young with my family. I am sure some of you remember the "video game" that was mock tennis game before Atari came out. (You know the one with square "ball" flying around the screen and you move the rectangular paddle thing with a controller to return the ball.)

Within the last 5 years or so, I went through a period of being hooked and playing Metal Gear on Playstation.

I am not sure if I will start playing other games that TOG is involved in. However, I am happy to have the connection to enjoy those new games with others if I choose to play them.

Finally, thank you very much for reading my long-winded introduction. I am looking forward to enjoying WoW with many of you.
