Legend Has It...
Back when I played the retail version of World of Warcraft there was a guild on my server called the <Booty Bay Yacht Club> . It's always stuck with me as one of the more clever guild names that I've seen over the years. I like how they integrated something from the virtual world into their guild na...

Re: PvP and XP Boost Suggestions
1) I don't PvP, so no opinion to offer. 2) Now I have an opinion to offer... I've observed a consistent failing of many private WoW servers of the last 2-3 years is a lack of player investment. You look at servers that offered instant 60s or x2, x5, x10 XP rates and there tends to be a lack of playe...

Re: Veteran vs Newbie Raid Loot Issue
Ok, maybe one more thing, wouldnt it be nice to make it easier to go veteran based on some other contribution but the atendance? This seems like a reasonable request. Could you provide some examples? It would have to be something significant since it's probably going to take a month or two for the ...

Re: Veteran vs Newbie Raid Loot Issue
...as far as attendance is concerned there should also be a path back to casual from veteran, aka missing 3 raids in a row will put you down a tier or something like that. of course, being on "standby" or missing for some important reason is another issue. i'm essentially hoping this vete...

Veteran vs Newbie Raid Loot Issue
I've been getting a lot of complaints about the current loot system benefiting new raiders over veteran raiders. This makes sense since new raiders have a lot more gear slots that need upgrading and therefore get to roll more often compared to veteran raiders who need relatively fewer upgrades and t...

Re: Raid Event Calendar / Sign-Ups
When are new raids posted? I try to post new raid events roughly one week (5-7 days) in advance. If raiders want me to post the events as re-occurring weekly events I can do that, but I'd rather not. Having players who are active during the current week signing-up for raids reduces the number of no...

Yeah, it's hard to track attrition. Raiders come and go and the pandemic has altered a lot of lives/schedules. Most players who are on the Crafted Raiding Gear list tend to give someone else access to their account if they're leaving for an extended period of time. That's not always the case, but so...

Re: Raid Event Calendar / Sign-Ups
Please note, if you're signing-up for raids that means you're showing up for raids. Signing-up for raids you do not attend will count against you when determining raiding slots in the future.

Re: Thorium Brotherhood Rep Grind
An update isn't easy to do. We have materials spread around several crafters at this point. I'd take a look at the Crafted Raid Gear forum post and look at who can craft the TB rep items you want and contact them. If they don't have the mats needed we will find them.

As we continue to progress with raiding and new raiders continue to join us we're regularly turning both new and veteran players away from raids once they fill. Up until now we've been using a 'first come, first served' approach, but the time has come for that to change. We're now asking raiders to ...

For druids only, I'm linking to Taladril's List of Druid Gear. It's a Google spreadsheet for tank, melee dps, and healer specs. The tabs along the top of the spreadsheet will give you lists based on a specific type of gear (head, shoulders, chest, etc...).

Re: New folk from 3.3.5 comes to say hi!
If your goal is to raid we have a shortage of priests, dwarf priests to be specific. I think we're a bit short on shaman as well. All other classes seem pretty well balanced out at the moment.

Re: Coronavirus Raid Schedule
I'm now officially working from home until April 30th, so I'm pretty sure I'll be there!
Worst-case scenario if we don't have enough we'll shoot for an UBRS run to get more players attuned to Blackwing Lair for this weekend's raid.
