I do know Aja in real life. He is a former roommate of mine and we both served together in the U.S. Air Force. My feelings on him are mostly positive, but mixed. I know he’s intelligent, I know he knows MMO’s very well, and I know he can role-play.
However, in my past experiences with him (which I must admit are now 3 years ago) he can fall into the power gamer mentality. This is both a boon and a bane for us. If he uses his power gamer mentality to improve the guild while still role-playing and keeping to the ‘spirit’ of the game, then it’s a good thing. But if he falls into the ‘c u l8r m8’ type chat , or worse yet, decides that being an individual is more important than the team, he could be problematic.
I do NOT believe that he will be a problem. I just wanted to give you a heads up on what I know of him from the past. Allandhra knows him in real life, too and may be able to speak up as well.
Allandhra, I’m sure you know who it is by now, but just it case ... he’s the former roommate that’s not Gladdys or Al.

I think you're right on track, LtC Kodoss. Oh, I forgot to mention ... Right now Aja is in Korea. He’ll be moving from there to Germany. I know we have a 30 day recruitment policy, but if he is leaving in 3 weeks, do you think we can expedite it so he can know ‘yes’ or ‘no’ before he leaves? I’m not saying simply let him in; I don’t think that would be fair to the guild. I’m saying let’s rush the process since he will be off-line for a while. Let me know your opinions on this.

I would say if he does not act like a complete fool, nothing speaks against it. Let us just see what he is about.
