So, some cock-smoker named Vaporubs should burn in hell. Ran Forge of Souls on Empresse in heroic, went ok (the healer was fail as fuck!) when the *healer* fucking ninja-ed the Needle-Encrusted Scorpion from the 3 DPSers. I hope the other two had the right minds to remind the fucker. I will fight Blizzard for this until 1.) I get the damn Trinket (without me needing to run the fucking instance every damn day til I get it or 2.) the fucker gets his account banned. The latter would be sweeter. The fucker isn't even feral DPS!!!
Can't believe it. I would've won the fucking roll too if he hadn't ninjaed it.
Now if that wasn't bad enough... I missed tonight's raid because I was cooking dinner. Took me an hour to ready the damn catfish nuggets only to find out that my bf was getting home late and even then, we couldn't eat dinner together because he had a homeowner's association duties to attend to.
I logged back an hour and a half after raid invites went out and found out that everyone had RL shitz to deal with so no dead Arthas this week... again. Most everyone logged by then so I got invited to a 10-man ICC run. It wasn't the best setup and we're all out of it but we downed most of the bosses anyway, until one of the healers had to bail for the night. Well, more like went AFK for almost half an hour then tells us that he couldn't continue. Everyone was pissed, to say the least, especially since he's the one who went Linda Blair on us.
This is why sometimes I wonder how people think so damn highly of themselves and that people need to work around them. Total fucking douchebags.

Shout it, shout it, shout it out LOOOOUUUD!!!
My thoughts on the guild's forum:
"I could write a mission statement (which I have in the past but I think I'll decide against it this time and spare y'all the torture!) but I doubt anyone will read it anyway. Hope this thread gets read by more people instead of just us 3 -_-
The problem with having too big a roster is someone's going to get sit out AND if people go MIA, it's easier to switch people in. It's easier to sit out 10 people while the rest of us raid than sitting 20 people cause the rest can't raid. To be honest, I dislike the latter. I've seen more guilds fall apart because of this compared to the opposite. If people who get sat out don't wanna see beyond the fact that the guild is pro-progression and needs to bring in people who can carry their own weight then -no bars held- they need to get the fuck outta here and join a 10-man casual guild instead.
I agree with Nuc's idea of having 35 full-time raiders. It keeps people on their toes: if they fuck up too much or leave too early, expect to sit out the next time. Like I said on another post "everyone's raid spot is a privilege, not a right". We all gotta fight for our spots, no matter what class we are, and it don't matter who the fuck we know in the guild.
And people have to understand though, most of the time getting sat out is not personal. Sitting out is part of raiding. I've seen people go "I'll sit out for this so you can get [insert loot], but you sit out cause I want in on this fight". That's teamwork + communication right there. We need more of that, to be honest.
If we need to compete to stay on top of this server, internally we NEED to compete for our raid spots too.
This is probably the most vicious guild I have ever been in. "You don't do your job? You get told HARSHLY to do it. You still don't wanna do it? GTFO" If people suck they better know it, and they better get their asses in check the next time they take someone else's raid spot. There is always room to improve and I don't understand how people can't see that fact sometimes. Not only that, there are people that play the same class as you in guild. Discuss your class!!!
If people are desperate to stay raiding, they better be a bit more assertive and kick their own asses. With that the officers (and even the raiders) will know who are the dedicated raiders and who's not. It's not just skill we're concentrating on right now, you know? I am not saying that skill isn't a plus to have, but if you're MIA most of the time, how exactly can you help the guild again?
Anyways, Imma end my rage here. Glad you brought this up, Blackmorgrim, and thank you Nuclayer for doing a good job as recruitment officer."

When I Grow Up, I Wanna Be a Warlock!!!
"Yeah, yeah, I know... alt no. 6? Why you haven't lost track yet? LOL!"
That's pretty much what my invisible friend was shouting at the voices in my head when I decided to revive Luciferine in this server. I've forgotten how fun it was to play lock!
Main-change incoming... in my dreams!

Safe and Secure
Well the new priest (mentioned in a previous post) choked on a lot of things tonight.
Finding that shovel: He lied to the Raid Leader (umm yeah, that's just asking to be raped right there) when the RL asked if he knew the fight and the guy said he read the strats and watched the youtube vid posted on the forums.
Digging the Grave: So he is brought in to the Sindragossa fight. Granted... anyone is given a certain amount of tries to get the damn strategy right when it's their first time with the encounter. Now, dying multiple times... after being ressurected multiple times in the combat period = fail.
Six Feet Under: Demoted from initiate to Friends and Family.
Now he seems like a pretty good guy. I don't like his attitude though about being sat ("attendance fairness" over pro-progression attitude annoys the fuck outta me) because he's not as familiar with the fight.
But hell... my first *Big League* raid with Methodical was Anub'arak in TOGC. Now, the guild I was previously with couldn't even down Icehowl. NUFF SAID. Anyways, I caused one major wipe -hey, it wasnt my fault their definition of back is 'back to the entrance' while my old guild's definition of it is to head the opposite direction. That fucking beetle would target me during his underground face EVERY DAMN TIME... but I didn't fuck up since that first time.
I am not saying I am good with raid awareness but, if someone can't figure out the strategy after the tenth time we've been in that damn boss... really shouldn't expect him to do better after the twentieth time.

Should I stay or should I go...
Shadow that is? >_< ... yeah like that is ever gonna happen!!!
Well, if anything, at least I am gathering some pretty decent amt of gear if I decide to go Shad. I spent 1 DKP for San'Layn Ritualist Gloves, which surprisingly nobody wanted! I guess everyone just wanna keep their Tier Sets. Can't blame them TBH.
Icing on the cake (heh heh.. cake!), I won Corpse-Impaling Spike. BIS baby... until we go into heroics... /tapsfoot... yeah maybe never.

Locho, you're my hero ... less than three you!!!
So Locho (AKA my new hero!) was on his druid last weekend and saw how shitty my DPS is on my hunter when we were in ICC together. Poor boy dictated in psts everything he could think of to help me fail less--this was interrupted when I DC after a bio break because my BF decided to unplug the modem (note to self: DISOWN BF!). So, I re-specced about 3 times and tested theories. I stared at the damn heroic dummies for about 40 minutes and I think the figure will be etched in my brain forever. Sadly, my Survival Spec still is shitty... but my Marksmanship DPS went waay up. YAY!!!
Pretty much he told me to research my class (gah, homework!!!). Read The Survival Hunter in 3.3 and Marksman Questions. Didn't realize some minor adjustments would cause that big a difference. Also Locho had me download RAWR. I haven't a fucking clue how to work this damn thing so it might take a while (if it even gets touched!) before I figure this out. We'll see

Something terrible has happened...
