Thanks for your application, however as Joe has pointed out, we have a lower age limit of 18. Also, from briefly speaking to you and your app, its apparent that English isnt your first language, and we are an english speaking guild. So, regrettably, application declined, goodluck ingame and irl
I'm sorry, but you've been declined. That usually means 'no'.
If you want more of a reason, then I'll happily repeat what me and Alchy have already said;
Firstly, you're too young. We have an age cutoff of 18 for a reason. We raid until 00:00 AM game time, which I believe is 01:00 AM in Italy. It's unbelievably annoying to have to halt a raid because someone had to go to bed because they have to get up early in the morning for school. Also, we use some pretty strong language and what you might call 'adult humour' in guild chat, raid chat and on Team Speak. We'd rather not have to let a young teenager listen to our kind of talk, nor would we like to sensor ourselves.
Secondly, English CLEARLY isn't your strong point. I'm not trying to cause offense, but with a language barrier like the one here it's going to be very difficult to get tactics and orders across on Team Speak. It's very important that when the raid leader says "get ready for phase two, it'll be in 5 seconds" that you're not tabbing out to translate what that meant.
Thirdly, there are several things on your application that I would have turned you down for if the decision was in my hands anyway. One being that you said you 'do not use' Team Speak. Well, that's a requirement to raid with us. You answered 'Yes' to 'Have you read, understood and agree to our rules of membership?' Well, if you're gonna answer yes to that, then try to have read though, understood and agreed to the rules then.
Fourthly, you said that you're trying to fill the gaps in your gear by grinding honour points. Well, we're more a PvE guild than a PvP one. And personally I don't agree with using PvP gear to raise item level. It's a joke that Blizzard need to fix, since it's getting people where they shouldn't be.
Again, I don't mean to cause any offense; it just seemed that you wanted a more constructive answer. The Blade Order just isn't the guild for you. Good luck in game and IRL.
I played Classic until I was nearly level 60. It needs The Burning Crusade really for me though. I am lurking around Daggerspine again for a while, trying to get used to the changes lol
