Just a gamer, most of my time spent on WoW of course.

It all started out when I was just 9 years old. My cousin showed me World of Warcraft for the very first time back in 06 when both families lived nearby in Guam. I started off with a Human Warrior because being a kid, you're bound to Alliance at first. Got him to about level 52-54 and convinced my dad to order some chinese dude to powerlevel my warrior. Twas' a success indeed. Got to level 60, and then off to Outland. (It took me like 4 months to get to 60 lol, maybe more).

TBC arrives, bla bla bla I get to 70 and it's the greatest feeling in existence woot. Oh! I had forgotten to mention I also started leveling a Troll Hunter either at the beginning of TBC or late Vanilla WoW. Anyway, my warrior was all geared for Karazhan progression as a casual of course. Majority of the raid team had no idea I was 10 years old haha. A while later, I had been hacked, for about the fourth time. Lost my hunter and warrior what seemingly felt like forever. So I resorted to playing Xbox on an Overseas connection (twas' no bueno).
Months later, I find out my warrior and hunter have been restored. However, the warrior was in bad shape.. naked actually. So there really was no chance for him to recover anytime soon. So I focused on leveling my hunter to 70 and I did in fact succeed. But I didn't do very much with it.
WOTLK has launched! I re-roll an Undead DK. Was very enjoyable indeed. I was the tank. I ran a few PuGs, but no real progression :c Raiding guilds had been a dream of mine since day one but obviously I just never cut out for it due to age, mentality, and lack of experience. And of course schedule.
Boom! Cataclysm is live. I level my DK to 85, and basically forget about him and went back to my troll hunter who wasn't even 80 yet, he was 74! So I leveled him up of course, got geared for Heroic 5 man dungeons pretty quickly and raided 10m Firelands normal. Best Cata raid dungeon ever. I wasn't even remotely close to playing at high performance much like most players but I was also a casual raider, young, with a dream to raid heroics. After FL, quit casual raiding for a while and leveled up a Blood Elf Female Warrior. Yeah, don't see many of those nowadays. I leveled it pretty quickly, her name was Kaede. When I reached 85, gearing her up took virtually no time at all. When LFR was new during patch 4.3, I'd run it on the daily. Collect my VP, JP, etc. and gear up from there. Someone I ended up with a 394 item level.. but no heroic progression. I just remained at normal. Oh well!
Ah, Mists of Pandaria. I leveled my BE Warrior because I thought she'd remain my main through MoP, even considered tanking again. But this time it wasn't for me, it had been to long. Stat priorities, reforging, etc. All that nonsense finally became a necessity for raiding to me. I'm aware min/maxing has been a thing since TBC but it only just down hit me. I geared Kaede up with LFR drops from 5.0 content and normal mode MSV. However, it didn't last very long at all. So I decided to level up a troll Shadow Priest. Took me a week or two but I reached 90, hallelujah! Geared up as much as possible through heroics, read as much as I possibly could about Shadow Priests and other boss encounters on Icy-Veins and ended up clearing Mogu-Shan Vaults. Take note, this is still casual raiding for me. Over the long period of progression, I had learned much, much more about my class and was able to actually beat other raiders, even as a Shadow Priest! Time goes by, and if I'm not mistaken, a few days prior to the release of ToT I joined Korrupt on US Mal'Ganis Horde, and was able to finish 16/16NM. Felt very proud indeed, even if it was normal. Korrupt breaks up shortly, I move onto joining Solstice as a casual on the same realm and faction. That summer of 2013 is when I started raiding once again. They had two raid teams, Solar and Lunar. Solar being the core team, downing all the Heroic encounters and Lunar being the more casual side. Lunar was also the group filled with homosexuals haha. (Absolutely nothing wrong with that, it was just an inside joke). Ended the tier going 12/12NM and 1/13HC. Talk about hardcore amirite? Come 5.4, this was the beginning of my raiding career. I trialed for Solar, and I got accepted. Thank god I thought. We downed Garrosh on the second week, but we actually were able to get World Rank 17 on WoWProgress during the normal mode progression. Pretty cool for us at the time. Third week of the patch we start heroic. I missed the official kill of Heroic Immerseus, but was around for Protectors, Sha of Pride, and Galakras I believe.
Later I encountered some RL issues and was unable to raid with Solstice. So I ventured out in search of a new guild to raid with. Joined Deviant (25 Heroic Horde) What really kinda killed it for me with that guild was the use of EPGP, I believe the addon is totally unfair especially if you're trialing others. There are people who don't need certain pieces of loot, and trials are unable to need for MS because of it. Worthless addon! However, while in Deviant I was able to kill Heroic Immerseus, Protectors, Norushen, Sha of Pride and Juggernaut. To my own defense, the week I had trialed or for however long was not a good one. As typical as it sounds.. I was experiencing terrible lag spikes, learning new mechanics and it seemed like everyone was insanely geared compared to myself. So I didn't pass the trial.
But! I applied to Nexus (25 Heroic Horde - Mal'Ganis) and I actually enjoyed it very much. I love a raid leader that will get on your ass for ******* up on a mechanic. I'm all for constructive criticism as long as there isn't any actual beef between us or whomever it may be. It's all for the benefit and greater good of the team. My raid schedule window had changed once again, and me and my good friend Kiysu, the GM on Solstice had talked a bit about me coming back to Solstice and I of course took the opportunity. So no, my trial with Nexus was not garbage nor did they not want me apart of the team because I had actually become significantly close to getting in if I had no told Fred (Ex-Vigil raider) about my sudden plans to return to Solstice.
After returning, the team had downed Heroic Juggernaut, Heroic Dark Shamans, and Heroic Nazgrim during my absence. Way to go! They were progressing on Malkorok at the time however. Luckily I rejoined either before or during one of the final few attempts to killing him. Then we were off to Spoils.. forever and a day. I missed the official kill, but was present for the Heroic Thok the Bloodthirsty kill with video proof online, be sure to check it out on my channel! As well as the Spoils kill! (Though not the official, just my official kill). On December 12th, 2013 we downed Thok the Bloodthirsty on Heroic. And boy must I tell you how un-enjoyable the long duration of progression was on him. 25 days it took us! Whatever, he's dead now. We practiced on Siegecrafter about 80+ pulls, learning the fight and brewing up some strats but none quite prevailed.
Another fateful IRL issue came up.. and at the time I thought my only option was to find another guild yet again, but on another server that would meet my raid times. And I did. I transferred to Alleria and faction changed to Alliance. Played a NE Spriest for a while because of the cool character model.. not so much the PvE Min/Maxing. Joined Guys 'n Dolls temporarily. Raided only a couple of nights with them but they seemed to like my numbers. The time came where I was able to raid regularly again. So I once again, looked for another guild. Searched on Illidan, Mal'ganis, Sargeras, Stormrage, etc. Came across Zul'jin and found a pretty significant amount of guilds on par with my progression or greater. And you've gotta take risks right? So I applied to Might, rejected. I applied to Systematic, rejected. I applied to Divide, rejected (But I did get a referral from a high official in their guild to another guild!). So here I am, a Pandaren Shadow Priest and loving it while trialing for Perception. A guild that is 10/14 Heroic Mode, just a boss behind in progression. They're a very humorous bunch and I like that. The environment among Mumble is quite enjoyable and warming. But.. not only do they have some attendance issues.. but it's Heroic Thok the Bloodthirsty progression ALL OVER AGAIN.

You can only imagine the heart break inside me.
