[Social] Cornplex - (Ele) Shaman application

Who is your character?
Cornplex, a Draenei Shaman
Who are you?
My name is Sebastian, I'm 29 years old and I'm from the Netherlands.
Activity
I'm mostly fond of PvE content. Back in the days I used to raid in a more hardcore fashion, but both the will and time have left me over the years, so I guess you could call me a casual raider (though the application is social in nature).
Guild history
I would have a tough time remembering, since I actually rejoined WoW today. I've been out for quite a while now and my previous guild wasn't anything serious. The one worth mentioning is Vision of Excellence on the Venture Co, in which I spent a large part of the years playing WoW.

I heard about you through Duress, who is basically one of my old Guild Leaders and good friends. We had our annual meeting at Äland last weekend and he mentioned that if I felt like coming back and hooking up with him, I should try as a social member of the Raven Council.
About you
It's weird that when you think about it, WoW is 10 years old, I was 18 or 19 when I started and I was hardcore. I leveled a Warrior tank from 1 to 60 in Vanilla, almost solely through dungeons. It took me 4 months, but I could tank.
Getting into a guild was hard at that point and staying in one, for me,was even harder. What those 10 years taught me, is that having a good time beats excelling at the game. I used to be an ass, often, to people that failed, often. The part that grumbles at failure, especially my own, hasn't entirely left me, being competitive as frog, but VoE taught me you could have fun and win, without feeling miserable about it an entire evening. Our first Real Life Meeting with VoE, they planned to pull me aside and have a word with me, but that never happened. We were just busy having fun. And it has been fun all years that came after it.
So, right now, years later, I can honestly say I just want to have some fun, hang out, do dungeons, challenges, raids where the opportunity arises. I still don't stand in the fire. Unless I didn't read the tactics
I know the above seems like a big unrelated rant, but it tells you more about me than a summary of a bunch of raids I cleared
Gnomes
Sacrifice. No good reason to enter a dungeon with gnomes, unless you plan on sacrificing them.
