Hello my name is Bigjunk and I would like to join Athen Paladins. I have been playing AO since its the release with some pretty large breaks throughout.

I am looking for a knowledge source to provide assistance in the Shadowlands. Other than heckler farming this content has been a large mystery to me. I am interested in checking out the main story line, completing the quests and advancing in SL the way it was intended. Of course, any guild related events would be welcomed either pvp, alien raids or whatever.

I would describe my knowledge of the game to be mediocre at best.

My time zone is US CST- Texas.

I fully agree to your COC (listed here viewtopic.php?f=8&t=69)

I have two accounts, but these are my primary clan or neutral characters.
Shadowmuse Shade 167
Cybermatron Engineer 137
Bigjunk Keeper 153

Thanks in advance for the consideration!

Hello Bigjunk and welcome on our forums

If you look for knowledge, you're very welcome. It's OK to have little knowledge as long as you are willing to learn!

About the storyline of SL, maybe you should have a look there if you don't know this already:
AO STORYLINE SUMMARY: from the Xan to our time
viewtopic.php?f=14&t=4026

About raids, we have raids for mid-levels like the old-school Mercenaries raid (outside so no level required but 150+ recommended, or Inner Sanctum (125+ to enter), and at 180 you can enter "APFs" ("Alien Play Fields", sectors 13, 28, and 35) with us.

Back to your application, thanks for reading and agreeing with our Code of Conduct and Org chat recommendations.

Your next step will now be to meet us online: join our guest channel in AO!Any AP member can invite you to guest chat. It does not have to be an officer. And Toomuh can do it! He just has to type "!invite Rabbina" in org chat.

Anyhow, you can usually find AP members hanging out at the Vanguards ramp next to the OA grid. If you can’t find a member you can self invite by typing /tell Bobsan !invite This is a temporary invite, so please introduce yourself and ask for help with any questions you may have about your application.

At some point soon, after you've spent some time with us, an officer will contact you for a brief chat.

As our officers can be busy with raids and other duties, it may take a few days to contact you.

See you in AO soon !

I do chat with an officer, and was invited to chat but I could not stay on too long.

I had hoped I would still have access to the channel when I logged back in, but I guess it expires?

I am interested in something this weekend if you have something planned?

Hi Big

Yes you have to request an invite to the guest channel each time you log. Any member can put you into the guest channel.

Cheers
