A short history, for those who might be interested. Tempest Rising contains many people who have been playing since undead could be shackled by Alliance priests. Some of our amenities include:

• A small, tightly-knit guild roster containing high attendance players with alts, to prevent "raid shock" - where you suddenly don't know who the hell you're raiding with (a problem of big guilds);
• A zero-sum DKP system with loot council discretion on legendaries;
• A fair (!) bank system wherein you get Bank Points for mats/gold donated, which can then be used to buy raid mounts, BoP recipes, PvP items, fun trinkets, consumables, etc.;
• Goofy runs to unwind after raids, such as achievement whoring and farming Zul'Gurub for the turtle book/mounts;
• Dirty jokes (consider yourself forewarned);
• A Ventrilo that remains clear of stupid songs, horrible mics with static, and general dicking around during new content nights;
• A Ventrilo rife with humor on farmed content nights;
• Officers with no tolerance for leeches, these same officers who have no qualms with booting repeated failures at class skill or start drama;
• A GL commited to bringing out the maximum out of every character (yeah, the rumors you've heard about him booting drama-loving douchebags without warning are probably exaggerated, but true at their core ^.^ );
• Forums with WWSes of every run;
• Constructive criticism delivered in a factual manner;
• The shared mentality that it's no fun being in a raid where you feel 24 people aren't putting as much effort into boss downs.

Please put in an application if you are of like mind. Our guild leader Grital is available should you have concerns, though really anyone in TR should be able to answer basic questions or tell you who online can.
