Once again, sorry

Geez, I can't seem to fit in time to blog, school, homework, KARA, too much stuff going on.

Anywho, here's a post about rogue goodness-- You can, why? and how?


You can do anything.  You can, you're a friggin rogue for gods sake, thats why.  No, you can't kite, mabye you can't stay alive for over 30 minutes, but you can stealth, and thats gotta count for something.
Stealth is our ultimate tool, dagger rogues use it for ambush, rogues in general use it for cheap shot and garrote, and most of all, we use it to get around.  Say there's a lvl 72 elite blocking the gate into somewhere you need to go, what is your first impulse? STEALTH AROUND IT.  Exactly, thats right, thats what you do.  Warriors or Pallies would have to get a group and kill it, but not us melee dps, because we have stealth, say it with me, s-t-e-a-l-t-h.  There ya go.  Stealth can also be missused however, for instance, say you're grinding, and you don't want to take more than 3 guys at once, but the whole area is 4 packs, so you just stealth around for an hour looking for a doable fight.  NO, don't do this, if you need to, get help, or try fighting 4 at once, never use stealth to get yourself out of something that will get you valuable experience or money, and is DOABLE.  If it's impossible, like soloing a 72 elite as a rogue, don't try to, please, you're just making a bad name for the rogue class.  Yes, you, stop, right now.  There ya go.  Now, if you're a hunter, kite those evil mobs, but as a rogue, you either try it, don't try it, or GET HELP, sometimes without trying it first :P.

So there, you CAN.

Long Time No... Write: Welfare Epics Ahoy

So, first, long time no blog... School got the better of me for a while. /apology.

Down to business.  Welfare epics? One thing.  These babies will be my personal salvation from a living hell of blues and greens and nothing more.  See, life hits ya like that, I thought I was gonna raid like a living maniac.  But then the whole guild thing fell out from under me, and now my best chance of ever seeing an epic is non-premade bgs and 2v2 arena.  Sad story, huh?

Anywho, these babies really will be my only salvation.  A rogue+rogue arena 2v2 and a rogue+rogue+pally 3v3 are gonna probably be my only way of getting some purple to spice up my day.

Lets get into the nitty gritty: I resent these being called welfare epics, and I resent raiders saying that these are mad easy to get.  THEY AREN'T.  The time it takes to get anything out of a bg, and the skill involved for arena is maddening to someone on such a tight schedule and with as little skill as me.  Anyway, someone posted a truly genious song about Welfare epics, and this was basically what made me do this post, so here it is! :

Oh yeah, and this is where I got the link, hilarious blog:

Das all folks, hope ta see ya around again soon!

Guild Drama and Amazingly Crappy Luck

So, I am aware that this post has been done before by every WoW blogger ever to exist, and thats why I'm doing it.  Haven't you heard? Conformity in blogging content is the new... Not?.... Conformity.

OK, here we go:
Small or Big?
Now, Silly me, I thought that small guilds would have less drama, I still do by the way.  Well, I was wrong.  The first guild I was ever in that meant anything to me was The Almighty, who still exist, but under different leadership. Now, the whole guild broke up basically because of 2 Incidents.  1: A quarter of the guild left because there was an arguement between an officer and the GM about cursing in guild chat, and the officer left, and took alot of people with him. Then another officer sent hate-mail ish stuff to the GM about how she handled it badly.  So then the GM and second in command both left the game on the same day, and all the other officers did too, so I was left in charge of a 40 man guild of lvl 30s.  Lemme tell ya, it wasn't easy.  Anywho, there was no major guild drama during this period, but then school started again and I couldn't handle managing the guild at the same time (too much pressure and all that crap), so I handed lead to a great friend of mine, who then left the game (no one's heard from him since, and the current GM won't give me his email), and he handed the lead to the current GM.  Whom, as you can kinda tell, seems to want to have nothing to do with me.  So while the current GM and I are both there, someone comes back saying that they are the officer who left, who was my really good friend. And so, I ask him some questions that he couldn't possibly answer unless he was really my friend, and he logs off.  So, now, about 4 months later me an him got back together, and sorted it all out, with multiple apologies on both sides.  Anywho, I'm not in this guild anymore, so I don't know all the stuff about it, but as it seems they are getting ready for heroics and the like.  So, whats my shtick about this? Small guilds, close friends, and set rules make all the difference. Know everyone's name and traits, know their spec, professions, class, and be friends with them.  Have set rules so no one can screw anything up.  Small rules, but good ones.

Guild Recruitment is a B#!@
Yes, it is, I've been the GM of my own guild, , and in all that time, we only managed to have a hight of 9 members, and a current population of 4.  I can't recruit for it, so I'm seeing if I can merge with another guild, a good merger, not an unfair one.

If you haven't noticed already, this has basically been a post for me to vent.  Thanks,

Good
