Rootbear's computer wont start up. Rootbear, will get this sorted out in a few days, he hopes. Rootbear, is not happy at all, and when he returns, he'll take all his frustration out on Styxix.

this is how you avoid shit..

I'm not sure what everyone else's plans are, but I'll be out of town Mon-Fri for Christmas next week. So if you need people I'll be back to 24/7 WoW on Friday afternoon.

ILU GUYS.

BYE

This is what I know from other people. I can not directly confirm much of it.

A few seconds before the servers went down for maintenance, someone who had access to Abec's account disbanded the guild.

When the servers came back up, Extracrispy (Sanders' mage) recreated the guild with the same name. if you were previously in the guild and need an invite, please contact someone in guild and ask for an officer to invite.
[ /who "WHAR LEWTS" ]

We assume Abec's account was hijacked due to a leak of account information to a public chat but have not been able to speak directly to Abec about this yet.

The guild bank tabs are lost, but the contents will be mailed to Abec's account in the near future. If this was a real "hack", GM's MIGHT be able to restore bank tabs, but assume we will have to start over.

We also saw that Abec's account had a paid character change where his name and appearance has been changed. Your guess is as good as mine to decide if this was a joke, a hack, or intentionally done.

For more information about Abec's new name, contact someone in guild or check ventrilo if you were a previous active member or above.

Further updates on the situation:

Abec has gotten on vent and explained that someone else abused his past trust by disbanding the guild and changing his character. He has been in touch with Blizzard GM's to attempt a recovery of the guild, bank, tabs, items, ect. This most likely will take weeks to tell us that they can't do anything. Abec also mentioned ordering a Blizzard security token (Authenticator) to ensure future account security.

In the mean time, many active players from WLPH have migrated to the guild <MORGAN FREEMAN> lead by Voke.
Current Officers are: Jackslammer, Thorran, Cahn, Zoia, Milliardoe, Meeks, & Alyse.

Abec (under a new name) is still active and raiding with the guild and the raid schedule has not changed. The long term future of the guild, raiding, guild name, and leadership is still being worked out.

Since the GM ticket was taking too long, Abec decided to move back to WHAR LEWTS PLZ HALp and rebuild. We have yet to see if the GM's will perform any other restoration action on Abec's account or of the guild. They do seem to be working on the ticket's investigation as Abec's account was temporarily closed (and reopened already) in efforts to secure the account and prove ownership.

So I just got done watching The Price Is Right, and they did a showcase showdown at the end. There was an older gentlemen and a woman in her mid-20s. After seeing his showcase the man makes the bid of $23,564. Drew giggles at the bid and comments that it was eerily specific. The man shrugs and laughs it off. The lady then sees hers and bids a little over $30k. After the commercial break Drew Carey lets the lady know that her actual showcase was worth only $450 more than what she bid. So everyone is screaming and clapping and she's super stoked. Then he looks at the man and opens his card and says, "And the actual value of your showcase is...$23,564. You got it right on the nose." The screen display lit up with "$0" over and everyone started screaming. The man won by guessing the exact dollar value of an entertainment center, a pool table, and a 17 foot trailer. WHAT THE FUCK.


Oh, and in before "cool story".

Guild disband? o.O

1. Your in-game name (and alts):

Anthaas (80 Ret pally / prot pally)
Shockss (72 Resto shaman)
Amariaa (72 DK)

2. Class, spec, profs, and off specs you have gear for (include resistance sets):

Retribution Paladin, Mining 450 Blacksmithing 450 Cooking 410 Fishing 310, Tank gear for off spec, lvl 80 Frost resist gear .. of course the old level 70 shadow frost and what not gear.

3. Armory links (a must):

http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet...&n=Anthaas

4. Any WWS links to your performance in a raid (recommended):

No recent ones.. but I have run 5 mans w many members of wlph and they can vouche for my dps.

5. We are a raiding guild and ended TBC top 200 US; it is expected you have raiding experience and know all fights you will be brought to. What is your raid experience (Vanilla WoW, TBC, Wrath):

Cleared all instances from Vanilla up to current end game. Minus Malygos bc I havent had a good group for it. I know the and have seen the fight though.

6. Previous guilds/servers and reason for leaving:

Vanilla - All Else Failed (It broke up)
BC - Was looking for a home alot of it .. Liquid, Epiphany, China Finger, others that end up breaking up.
Wotlk - SA .. wanted to raid .. bad. but now i wanna beable to raid more seriously. I get frustrated w the lack of progression.

7. It is assumed you will be available from 6-10 ST Sunday through Thursday, if you can’t please explain why you couldn't make our scheduled raid times:

Should be good to go.

8. Explain what puts you at the top, we raid to be at the top and expect it of all our members. Do you take pride in topping meters, never letting the tank die, never pulling aggro, etc.? What seperates you from the rest? Be specific, this will be a major indicator of the kind of player you are!

I play smart. I know what has to be done to make something happen and I get it done. I will top meters yes, but I am also willing to sacafice a few dps if called for to stay alive or keep someone else alive. I understand fights after seeing them 1 or 2 times and able to then jump into that encounter with out making mistakes. I am a very quick learner and strive to be the best no matter what.

9. A screenshot of your UI will help us consider you (Thumbnail Please.)

Pshh .. i raid w nothing on my screen. Makes it more realistic when i RP. /dance

lol but really, i use all the basic mods for raiding and anything my guild requires. And Bartender and xperl.

10. If you have thoroughly answered the following questions and are confident you are what we are looking for, you have a good chance of being trialed, but we'd like to know why you want to join us? What made you choose us over the other guilds out there? (only part Abec cares about(Srsly))

I wanna be the best. Tired of second rank guilds failing at encounters. Wanna play w more players my caliber or better. Plus i know a few people either irl or from playing w them in the game.

12. Add anything else you think we’d find interesting (such as you’re a GM, you recorded WWS for your old guild, you were an officer or did assignments in a past guild, you are Kalgan’s alt, or anything else worth noting).
