k now that i am finally allowed on to this forum, ill voice up.  I think we are all in agreement more or less that we need to recuit, adn teh majority agree with an application, at least a few hours with at least 3 officer/councilpeole to get a vote. (over a week or so to noob status. this could be all at once, or with several individually.)  we then would post a vote of noobness once a week.  if it is every wednesday, then you have to have your application in by wednesday in order to get voted on the next wednesday.  so there is a min of 7 days playing time to know them.  this also means that we need to reach out to them and have them play with us.  I know yesterday was the first time i ran with matar, adn he seamed cool to me.  It has just taken that long till we could hook up.  The application question is fine, but it is like any job application.  not a great way to determine talent, but just an initial way to start of fthe process. (build background)  the real determining part is on the job, or at least add some basic questions about the game to see how knowledgebale they are, adn what tood they use to find answers, such as: where do you go to get advanced enchanting spells? stolnetalon, uldaman, or thorium brotherhood.  the answer will tell you what level they know about what.  



DKP:  yes it should be a reward for activity, but not a dick in the ass if you can't come as regular.  maening.  we could have a dual system, where teh standard dkp with bid reward adn such are for purples, but a daily one for lower drops, such as cores, skin, ore and such.  this may add too much complexity into it, but would at least gice people a chance to win something everyday they caome.  otherwise you never get new people to come play until the originals are outfitted by spending thier dkp.  

either way we should also add who is favorite hair band?  and a word problem.  i like how TBT has one and there are so many lame reponses.  if they have no creativity in a simply application, they probably will not in the game.  also could add favorite "money shot" or something more in line with typical fse conversation.
