If your class is closed, this does not mean we will not consider your application. However, your application must reflect how exceptional you truly are to progress past consideration.

Raid Times
Tuesday 7-10p
Wednesday 7-10p
Thursday 7-10p

Tuesday is a farm day that we are going to be using to down the beginning bosses at the start of the raid week. If you are invited to a trial, this will be your trial night.

Expectations of Raiders
- Be on time (To be early is to be on time, to be on time is to be late, and to be late is to be left behind!)
- Come with Flasks/Consumables
- Have appropriate Enchants on your gear
- Have appropriate Gems in your gear
- Have an excellent grasp of your class/spec
- Have a strong understanding of each fight (This can be obtained by reading forums, reading strats, watching videos, etc.)
- Have an excellent understanding of your responsibilities during said fights. If you have questions about the upcoming fights, talk with someone about it BEFORE the raid, not DURING!!! Wasting time in this manner is UNACCEPTABLE!

When things go wrong, we don't want to hear excuses; but rather ideas on how to avoid the problem(s) in the future. (Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.)

If you cannot make all three raid days consistently, do not apply.
If you spend less than 5 minutes on an application, it will be rejected.
If you use any kind of 1337 speak or abbreviations in your application or trial, we will ignore you.

If this seems like the type of raider you are, then I want to wish you good luck with your application!

Raid Progress

Dragon Soul Heroic 5/8

Blackrock - Silly Hats Only (Insomniacs) 10:00PM - 1:00AM PST Night Raid

Tue, 25 Sep 2007 21:59:31 +0000

Insomniac's Raid Group
----------------------

This is Silly Hats Only's second raid group. This is a raid group designed for those individuals who, due to real life issues cannot commit to a normal weeknight raid schedule. Most of us are casual, skilled players who enjoy seeing endgame content on our own time, while avoiding spending 20 plus hours a week to do so.

Raid Schedule
--------------
Monday - 10:00PM - 1:00AM Server Time
Tuesday - 10:00PM - 1:00AM Server Time
Wednesday - 10:00PM - 1:00AM Server Time
This puts us currently at about 9 hours a week.

Expectations
------------

-AUTHENTICATOR REQUIRED
-Commitment to Current Raid Times.
-Understanding of Your Class Role in Raids.
-Preparedness for Raids (Consumables, Repaired, Flasks)
-Decent Gear, Preferably Heroics or Better.
-Understanding of the Encounters (Boss Fights).
-Great attitude.

What to Expect
---------------
We are only looking for people who enjoy raiding and aren't dbags. Loot whores/sluts stay the hell away or you will get punched in the vagina.

The Application
---------------
Make sure your posting reads like a job application. Correct spelling, punctuation combined with a readible application go a long way.

Note, if you are currently specced for PVP and logged out in that respective set, please list out your PVE gear and spec as an armory link doesn't help us any.

Please make sure your application subject heading has "Insomniac Raid" included. Also, create an intelligent, concise application that portrays your gear, raid experience, last guild & reason for leaving/and or desire to leave.

Age, Name, Sex should also be included.

Being humorous in your application is acceptable, however please keep it out of the specific information requested. For a short statement or attempt at humor, list it separately under "About Myself" or "Humor". This way I know you are joking and not just retarded.

Recruitment
------------
I always review every application and all classes are more then welcome to apply. If you are invited, I will let you know up front if you can expect a guaranteed spot, or if you are an alternate.

Access to the private forums is restricted to SHO members only.

If you're a member please register an account and post on this thread so we can grant you access. If you are using a forum name outside of your toons name you need to make a note of that. Also, another way to get this done is to send an in-game mail/pm to swiftrick requesting this be done.

If your request sits here for more than 3 days and you are a member of SHO remind an officer in game.
