Feature interview: Omen

This month I feel I have hit the jackpot and my levels of stalking have surpassed my own belief. Encouraged by Obs the Omen PR Manager supreme, rather than rolling an alt to discuss this interview with Omen’s GM Darcuri, I faction changed my level 80 Resto druid, and as yet haven’t looked back!

With an aim to balance Emerald Dreamers to provide neither a Horde or Alliance blog, but a blog for the server, I bring to you this month the leading Horde raiding guild of Emerald Dream…. *drum roll* Omen!

Devil’s Advocate: Emblems of Triumph

Professor

Devil’s Advocate – Someone who takes an opposing position for the sake of argument, regardless of whether they agree with the stance they defend or not. This column will do just that, take a point of QQ and argue the opposite side.

Ahhh badges, who’d have thought that something intended to make getting upgrades easier would cause so much drama and whining eh?

*Adopts Freudian voice*

Ah-ah-ahem. Now I Doctor Rupert Charles Von Necrallion have some volunteers who wish to share their complaints of said badges and said upgrades. You shall analyse these statements with me to determine how much of their view is legitimate concern and how much is the gum flapping of bruised prides.

Our Survey Says: Are You A Guildhopper?

From Wowwiki:

Guild hopper is a term used to describe players of World of Warcraft who join a guild for the sole purpose of gaining loot, then leaving to join another guild. It was possible for this type of player to gear themselves up in a very short space of time by gaining drops from boss kills with their guild.

If you’ve been in a lot of guilds, chances are that somewhere along the line someone you know has considered you a guildhopper. You may not fit the definition above, but whether you left your guilds for good or bad reasons often doesn’t matter since all we see when researching guild history is the number. The question is do you think your guild number is a bit over the top, or is all fair in WoW and loot?

Would you ever consider yourself to be a "guildhopper"?

Best of Luck in Your WoW Adventures

I love reading Guildwatch. It is my favourite feature on Wow.com which provides endless ”pretending to work” reading.

A previous Guildwatch featured a very humorous guild application thread. I always look through applications and find this, is by far the most interesting bit on a guild website.

As everyone knows Horde is a small community which means there is not a huge buffet of guilds offering various treats and portion sizes, so naturally not many /chuckle applications are open for public viewing.  However here are some that I believe may serve as the perfect appetizers.  Bon Appetit.

Chinese whispers: The Outrage!

The Stonemansons have been having a rough time of late, Mezzy has now been reinstated as Guild Master after leaving the Guild in Outrage’s hands a while back, progression was good, securing them a spot in the top 10 raiding guilds on the server.

Recently Outrage (for reasons I can only speculate) cleared the guild bank of around 25k and /gquit, nice work Outrage, you raid by the side of the Stonemansons players, inevitably become friends with many of them and then steal their wallet when their backs are turned. Whatever the reason for this…. its still bloody low.

Feature interview: Bridgeburners

Long before this site was a twinkle in my eye I knew that I wanted to interview the Alliance leading raid guild for the launch edition. Much to my delight Celeus the GM of Bridgeburners agreed to my request after my semi stalking him (poor poor man!)

After repetitively typing /who brideburners to track him down I’m glad to realise the guild name has a less mistyped masochistic theme. I have thoroughly enjoyed finding out a little bit more about Bridgeburners and hope the rest of the realm does to.

Many will realise that Bridgeburners just aren’t into self PR, modesty is a strange but wonderful thing to find in any number one spot. For this Celeus and the rest of Bridgeburners get a friendly /bow from me.
