How did you hear about BRTD?
I've played since closed beta, I've always known about BRTD.
I always considered joining BRTD due to it being casual and being allowed to have 'fun' as far as I'm aware, I stayed in my previous outfit for as long as I did because of friends, if not for them I might have applied 1-2 years ago.
Though I did have a fun time playing with one of your members today in a Harasser, name was MrGioTrs which made me think to apply.
I mean why not? If it doesn't work out and the outfit doesn't do the kind of things I enjoy then I can always part ways, no harm done, right? The only way I'll find out is to apply.
How many hours do you plan to play per week?
3-5
Why do you want to join BRTD
From what I've been told, BRTD allows 'fun'.
Harasser squads, Valk/Striker shenanigans, armour columns, battlebuses? That kind of thing.
I don't mind playing in squads and working towards an objective, but try to understand I don't want to do it all the time, I was told that you can do, drive/fly or play just about anything as long as you're being useful.
Not 100% sure but I could have sworn I was told that BRTD isn't completely about the objective either, that you have fun messing around here and there, cloaker stabbing squads, anti vehicle squads, that kind of thing... though I might be confusing BRTD with another outfit, please correct me if I'm wrong.
While I was in Goon, I stayed there for 3 years, 3 years but mainly because of my friends (and I miss them dearly), Goon used to be a spec-op outfit, doing what was necessary as and when needed while being led by Bargus, MAX crashes, anti-vehicle squads, harasser squad or simple basic point holds.
The Goon outfit I knew and love died a while ago and mostly devolved into Galdrops and point holding with a good chunk of being thrown into a meatgrinder and being told that somehow it meant something... I've capped so many thousands of bases it just doesn't mean much to me any more, I just want to have some fun while I do it.
I have nothing against that kind of gameplay, but its not for me which is why I finally managed to bring myself to leave.
Been looking for an outfit ever since, I do miss playing in a squad sometimes and hoped to find a group of like-minded people who just want to have fun, I don't mind supporting a base capture but could I be in a Kobalt harasser outside with a driver keeping them away from the point? Those kinda things.
What other gaming organisations (if any) have you been in?
Goon Brigade (3 years+, was community manager for a year and half, if I recall correctly)

What area are you most interested in? (Armor, Air, Infantry)
Fun... mainly Armour/Air with a bit of Infantry as necessary.
Anything else you'd like to add?
My activity is on and off due to IRL but I aim for at very least once a week for 3-4 hours, though I could easily play multiple days a week if nothing IRL gets in the way, if IRL gets busy I might only show up for outfit night (assuming you have them).
While I was in Goon I mainly flew Galaxies for them to drop them on bases, I'm told I was fairly good at it (or no one else wanted to do it), I wouldn't mind flying Gals again whether its to drop on a base or if using it as a battle-Gal.
To elaborate on the 'areas interested in', I mean gunning for Harassers/Valks, ramming ESFs with my Gal, driving an ANT behind enemy lines and building a turret to hit them in the rear.
