In Game Mail HACK!

Posted by Katreena on 23-Jul-09 12:34am

Hey guys,

For some reason gold farmers/account hackers are getting smarter. Not only are they spamming trade and sending you tells, they are now sending in game mails too.

Nick told me today that he received an in-game mail from Valkyria that said something like "This is nice: *insert suspicious web link here*."

Please do NOT go to this link. It is a keylogger. The email is NOT from me. It is actually from a poser Valkyria with one of those special 'i's with a sort of dash above it. I don't know who all got the mail or why they chose Valk (a character that I rarely play anymore)....

Raiding Focus

Posted by Katreena on 18-Jul-09 11:33pm

Until we get new members and our current members get better geared. We will focus on 10 mans only.

Starting this week, we will just run Reg Ulduar 2 times a week (same instance, just 2 days devoted to it).

Progression is changing with the new patch and 10 and 25 raids will each have their own heroic versions. This means that you can still raid and see new content (and harder versions) with a smaller 10 man version. They are implementing this so that smaller guilds who want to run with their friends do not have to pug so many spots to "progress". Gear is only slightly better in the 25 man versions....

Ten Commandments for All DPS

Posted by Pinna on 10-Feb-09 09:40pm

As posted on DPS Plate

These are the very most basic rules that you, as a WoW Player operating in Melee range, should follow. Several apply to the lesser classes, but you, oh dealer of the Smashy, Smashy, Stabby, Stabby and Pokey, Pokey, shall embrace them all.

 

I. Do not die. Even if you can Ankh. Using your death as an aggro wipe is an abomination.

 

II. Do not cause your raidmates to die. In this way, do not allow the healers or wearers-of-cloth to become squished by Lesser Nasties should the Tank ignore them. Your weapon shall be your weapon, but CC shall be your shield in a time of trouble.

 

III. Do not overtax your healers by taking undue raid damage. In this spirit, do not stand in front of the Big Nasty, nor should you stand in any nastiness the Big Nasty has strewn on the floor.

 

IV. Focus your Fire by assisting and following the kill order. ALWAYS.

 

V. Use your trinkets and cooldowns wisely. When in doubt, early and often. If your raid leader orders you to pop your trinkets and they are on cooldown, smile for you have done well.

 

VI. If the strategy calls for you to interrupt spell-casting by the Big Nasty, do so. The loss of dps is insignificant compared to violating the First, Second, or Third commandments.

 

VII. If you have a buff to share with melee, use it. This includes debuffs to the Big Nasty and anything that mitigates damage on the Tank. Though he is unintelligent and stands in front of the Big Nasty and probably smells a little funny, he is your melee brethren.

 

VIII. Do not show up to raid unprepared. Read the strategies, bring consumables, and have your items enchanted. Listen to your raid leader and class leader. Bring an offering of gold for repairs and pay it to Murphy willingly.

 

IX. Know what items and statistics will improve you and in what ratios. Do not stand around a dead Big Nasty and debate if his loot is good for you. This too is a violation of the Eighth commandment.

 

X. Do not covet your neighbor’s Recount. Do not violate the above commandments in an attempt to increase your dps at cost to the raid. This is a violation of the spirit of the law, which is teamwork.

 

*With my apologies to God if I have profaned His Scriptures. Oh, and Charlton Heston, who I did not recognise as a complete Bad Ass until he was dead.
