A Bit About Me...
I'm an old 1.0 player that stuck around for the majority of that travesty as well as the front end of 2.0. I stopped raiding when I had to bow out of my fantastic raid group because of some RL things going on at the time. Getting married mostly! I played casually for a few months after that - just as Second Coil was released - but without a consistent group to play with the game felt a little empty to me. I stopped playing again after pugging a few coil runs.
I lead a raid group back in 2.0 for free company Eminent. We raided 5-6 days a week for hours each night to achieve, afaik, the second Twintania kill on Sargatanas on 11/11/2013 * - well ahead of many other server's first kills. In this time I was playing PLD as my main class but also had full i90 MNK and i85 or so SCH/WHM which I played equally as effectively. I see myself as somewhat of a perfectionist; I enjoy eeking every 0.1% of efficiency out of any role that I play. My PC is filled with various spreadsheets documenting BIS sets, gear solvers for experimenting with stat weights, and DPS rotation testing **. I parse most encounters and I can honestly say I have only once been out performed by another DPS when playing MNK. That said, I'm very laid back and not at all elitist - at least, not out loud.
Currently I am putting my time in to DRK but I consider "tank" in general as my main class until things settle and I can get a feel for all the new changes. That said, I do have all jobs at 50 (except NIN) and I may be willing to play anything depending on the circumstances. All jobs at 60 is something I plan to get done in a reasonable amount of time.

** Example, I created and maintained a pretty popular Paladin gear planner which can be found here. It calculates block/parry rates, reduction, dps, enmity gain, ehp and a lot more based on the equipment and stats you select.
Schedule
I can fit any existing groups schedule as long as it runs at reasonable GMT/BST hours.
6:00 PM - 2:00 AM weekdays
Any hours on weekends.

TLDR info:
Skilled vet player returning for 3.0 after hiatus. Looking for GMT friendly raid group as a tank.
