Project Lore

Well here's an interesting follow-up to my last post here at ProjectLore.com. In a strange turn of events, I was on WoW the other night. I haven't had much time to play 'cuz I got all these episodes to make for you, but I had a moment or two to do a fishing daily. While I was running around Shatt, I saw a friend pop on that I hadn't seen in some time. I clicked on his name to see where he was and saw that he was no longer in a guild. What happened? This guy was a great pali tank and he wasn't in a guild? Kara, SSC, TK, BT, Hyjal, some Sunwell and no guild? I watched this guy go from pali healer to pali tank over the course of a few months to be one of the best tanks I've ever seen. So what gives? As you can see from the screen capture, something stupid happened (btw - the names have been blurred to protect the innocent (I think they're innocent - who knows)). His guild /gbooted him right out of the guild for being afk for too long. WTF? Their main tank booted 'cause he had to go afk to help his kids out? His RL children needed help and the guild booted him. What a-holes. Now who knows if the his side of the story is the complete picture, but I do know of more stories where someone was kicked out of a guild for some of the stupidest reasons I have ever heard. I've seen people get booted for not showing up to raids or bad mouthing the guild or ninjaing gear in pugs thus soiling the guild's name - all of which are mostly legit reasons to /gkick someone, but I've also seen some absolutely stupid reasons people have been booted. What's the raziest /gboot you've seen or heard of? Did someone not wear their tabard to a raid? Did they not rez someone when it was easier for them to run back? Did they not bring enough mana biscuits? So what was it? Let me know.

Welcome one and all to my Project Lore blog... What's there more to say than that, right? Actually a lot freakin' more. So hold on to your hats my fine little cyber friends. This is were I get to bitch about the stuff I can't type fast enough in guild chat while some affliction lock has got me dotted up to the teeth and some f'n rogue has crippled me once again in arena. I'll try to keep it clean here... no promises though... I mean I got the First Amendment on my side right? Well I'll let you know if I get a cease and desist order. In fact, I'll send you a copy to frame on your wall. Where was I? Oh yeah... bitchin' about stuff. Isn't that what a blog's for? Really? At least this one will be. And the topic: crap that annoys me while I'm playing World of Warcraft. Now it could be anything: the glare on the screen, my drink being half empty, or, my favorite, why can't the freakin' Alliance win a f'n battlegroud without the Horde being AF-freakin'-K! AHHHH!H!H!HH!!!! You try to get 28K honor points and 40 EotS Marks on a server who's chief comment in battlegrounds by the by the people who think that know what they are doing is "quit being stupid!" Those idiots. Tactic will be covered later. BTW - If I ever see someone in battleground with some stupid, jack@$$ comment like that, I will always report them being AFK or for spamming. Try to shake that one idiot. Well I don't want to lose all my venom here. I might have a nice comment or two in blogs to come. We'll see... Either way, thanks for showin' up and have fun playing.
