Well there's something you don't see everyday.
GL with the app :p

You haven´t answered all questions and it´s hard to read when you don´t have space between the question and the answer!
I can see you use PvP items, not good! Need to be replaced.
Though, I´m a bit curious because the link you made is for a character on another realm and I´ve talked to you ingame. Can you explain this? Am I looking at someone else or what?
I think your gear is a bit too behind for us, but that´s me. It´s really easy to get T10 Ilvl 251 atleast. I also see you use Restoration T9 piece, why? Then again, am I looking at you or someone else?
I´ll let the other Druid´s take a closer look at your gear/gems/enchants/talent/glyphs and so on.

re: Guild Application for Balance druid [Declined]

I had this brought to my attention in-game, so I'll have a quick look :
Talents
Talent build is fine. It's rare indeed (on SSL, anyway) to find an Owl that knows how to spec. You might possibly consider moving your point from Gale Winds into Owlkin Frenzy, but it's about the same dps increase, so not vital.
Gear and Enchants
Here is where it gets a little less juicy, unfortunately.
- Your trinkets are both very bad, I'm afraid. On-use effects are only worth it for haste, not spellpower, as it robs us of a GCD and that's one less Eclipsed spell you're casting. [Shard of the Crystal Heart] (from Triumph Emblems, easily grindable) and [Sundial of the Exiled] (again, easily grindable in about an hour from Heroism emblems) would be far better. [Dying Curse] from Naxx25 or [Abyssal Rune] from ToC5 normal would also be good. Don't worry that some of these have hit - you can get around that by removing points from Balance of Power and their on hit / on use effects are far superior.
- PvP bracers are very bad. [Bejeweled Wizard's Bracers] (crafted by Tailors) are far better.
- Again, PvP cloak is bad. The Frost emblem one, [Volde's Cloak of the Night Sky] , whilst pricy, is a good cloak and far more PvE-oriented than your current cloak.
Gems and Enchants
I'm going to be honest with you - this part is a mess.
Your head, shoulders, cloak, boots, bracers and gloves have no enchants at all. You have the rep for some, but not for others.
You need to do some reading up on Balance gemming priorities as well:
- Your meta gem should always be [Chaotic Skyflare Diamond] .
- Red sockets are [Reckless Ametrine] until you have at least 401 haste. After that, all Red and yellow gems are [Runed Cardinal Ruby] . You want 2 blue sockets to be [Purified Dreadstone] to activate said meta, after that same as for red / yellow sockets, unless the socket bonus is +9 spellpower. Your current intellect, intellect / spirit and spellpower / spirit gems are junk and suggest to me a lack of proper reading / preparation for this spec.
- Your idol at least is perfect, but you should really save your Frost Emblems for other, better upgrades. The 2T10 bonus for Balance is fantastic and should be your first aim.
Professions
Pretty much max level, but Skinning is a poor choice of raiding profession. We don't value crit to that extent - good second profession choices for us are Engineering, Tailoring and/or Alchemy.
Overall
Sadly, you're not ready to join raiding at our level. Your gear is too far behind and some of your choices suggest a distinct lack of knowledge about your chosen spec. I'd highly suggest you make the changes I advised and also read up on Elitist Jerks, the Moonkin Repository and Qieth's Quips for some good, solid Moonkin info.
Also, as Arkas mentioned, some questions are missing answers.
My personal take at the moment is to advise you to gear up some, do a bit more learning and reapply when you're in a stronger position. For a guild working on Lich King 25 and ICC10 Hard Modes, you sadly don't yet have what it takes to make enough of a contribution.
I'm going to advise our Recruitment Officer to decline this, but we will see what their final decision is.
Andu'falah-dor, brother Druid!

I appologise for mot puting spaces before my Answers
To answer my Unaswerd questions,:
1. I dont mind if GL is a Gnome i like gnomes,
2. the hardest achive i have is (Ive gone made a mess 10 man) defeting saurfang without letting him cast Mark of the Fallen champion 3 times
.3 and i dont know how to put in a sreenshot
I know 2 of my items are PvP but when i was gettin my gear they droped so i desided to use them because they were much better than the previouse ones.
The resion My spec says am on a diffrent server is that i jumped for earthen ring.
1 of mu item is a healing one but i dont have the emblums to replave right now so i am going on a HC farm to get a better one.
Once agein i appologise for not putting this in the of the application.
thak you for feedback Arkas and i will do my best to fix these problems[imglb align=center width=300 height=300][/imglb][img][/img][img][/img][img][/img][img][/img][img][/img]

Pushing trinkets doesn't use a GCD, or at least mine don't!

My old Resurgence talisman did, though I'm fairly sure it was a bug.
The problem with popping +SP trinkets during Eclipse is that you're rarely going to be able to time it so that the whole duration gets the benefit. And if it doesn't, then it's a waste. 'Spontaneous' trinkets always win for Balance, because all of your reaction time needs to go on spell-switching.

Hey there Disnàr Thank you for applying to Echoes of Lordaeron.
I'm the Recruitment Assistant and I shall be dealing with your application. As you probably already know (points to above post) Mystikal is your Class Representative and King Chicken, Lord of Trees and Watcher of Pussies (I assume that this self given title by him refers to feral kitties)
Currently we have room to fit another fat Lazor Chicken into the guild, if your the right one ofc is yet to be seen
Honestly though i would need to see your answers to Mysti's comments and his subsequent return comments before making any form of decision on the matter
When Mystikal has given his opinion after seeing your answers to his questions, and any possible issues has been solved I shall give my verdict as whether we will be able to give you a trial or not. I likely expect a bit of back and forth discussion between you as Mysti is a uber theory geek - that's a good thing btw
Good Luck with your application!
- Jaenus
The Big Kahuna.

Why so Strange Azlann ? I pull around 125 to 160 FPS in dalaran and about 80 to 110 in 25's while doing full AoE.
