FC Application?

[Aerostein]

I can understand it for a raiding guild, that is to be expected. I don't understand the whole point with a 'casual' guild though. I could understand a brief interview beforehand to see if you 'fit in', but an application just seems unnecessary for non-hardcore guilds.

I'm always wary of those casual guilds (hardcore as well to a lesser extent.) that require it as there will often be cliques already made most likely from past games. I prefer not to be in one of those where favoritism runs rampant. Of course, I'm sure there are exceptions to that. It's one of those things that can't be helped though. So being 'better' is completely subjective. Just my opinion.
