    I hope Elysium has the guts to uphold this 100%, instead of letting it slide. This is where they either prove to us that they're straightedge enough to be like Nostalrius, or they prove that decay is inevitable as exploitation creates two classes of player.

    Can a GM or mod commit to whether or not this is against the rules?
  3. Because Norton pisses itself at shadows. That torrent has been around for ages. Smarter and nerdier men than you or I would have caught anything fishy in it by now.

    Hurricane is at long last in game! Got our name on day one, an hour or two in. Some of our members are waiting until the dust settles to start playing - so many people have signed up for this server that the Elysium staff is considering a second one. We'll most likely be staying here even if there is one. Would hate to disappoint the poopsockers with us by asking them to start over. Now, time for some Deadmines.

    Welcome Bob and Deified! I'm in game right now poopsocking it, so I'll skip the small talk, and get you set up on Discord. PM set.

    How to log in fast?

    It's a trick. This will default you to the suggest a realm screen. You can test this by changing Elysium PvP to Nostalrius PvP or Nostalrius PvE in the config.wtf file. It works fine if you have characters already, but try it with 0 characters on the target server to see the real result.

    Hello Zoz, Harmless and vandrex! Zoz: Can definitely pack a few more rogues in. No reason not to, who doesn't want faster clears? Welcome aboard! Harmless: If I could pick, I'd go with Dwarf Priest. We've got all of two priests at the moment, which just isn't enough. I'll keep the addon expertise in mind! I also like Portal 2, but not with the same passion. I play it with Cyrene on rare occasion. vandrex: All right, another pally! I particularly love them in PVP. There's nothing quite as frustrating for the horde as a wall of nearly unkillable, decursive spamming kill-deniers. We're getting close to a full 40. I'll probably aim for a body of 50 regular raiders (I'm a fan of starting on time, every time), and then I'll have to be changing my recruitment message. Sent you all invites to our Discord!

    Hi, PandaRoll, dagrling, and Understand. PandaRoll: I do prefer three out of three, obviously, but it isn't like raiding is the only thing we'll be doing. That, and I can probably flex things a little bit. If it helps, we have only two priests at the moment, so I'd definitely take that one if I could pick. dagrling: Oh, you must be insane's friend! Yeah, welcome board! I already pencilled you in. Understand: Great! We're real short on restos at the moment. Sounds like a perfect match. PM'd you all our Discord info!

    Glad to hear it! Hi, Ro. In honor of our conversation I finished the a more or less complete outline of how we'll be distributing loot. The horrible and necessary rule about MTs oftentimes getting things first is still in, but I decided to give dedicated OTs a 10% DKP bonus to give them more buying power. The two-round auction system I devised ensures they'll actually get to use the bonus. How we distribute raid loot in HUR Also, I've PM'd you our Discord info.

    Nost Account Transfer Closed?

    Good luck with that. Every indication points to them closing up shop.
  13. It's theoretically possible. My feng shui (particularly my sofa cushions) indicated such an endeavor would be disharmonious in a way not at all advantageous to Blizzard, however. I cast some tea leaves this morning as well, and they seemed to suggest that Blizzard is actually observing this community at large as a no-risk means of gauging how viable classic servers really are in the long term.
  14. Not me! I've got an enormous planter of noobs to water.
  15. Naming and shaming was part of Vanilla WoW, and it's part of this server. Your personal rep and your guild rep matters. Safespace idealogy and cross-server play blurred that sort of thing over the years. Take screenshots. Fraps incidents of theft. If you provide strong evidence the community will turn against the people you're incriminating. We don't need the GMs to do this for us. They have their hands full, anyway.
  16. Taking a nap before Molten Core, dreaming of raiding, and waking up with a start when I saw a legendary drop in the dream. Then realizing I was late to the raid. As I logged into vent they were doing Baron Geddon. I told them to wait, they told me I should have arrived on time, they killed him and the other Bindings I needed for Thunderfury dropped. It was the first raid I was late to. That experience made me unbelievably punctual. On the plus side, I was a Fury Warrior, and giving me Thunderfury would have been the single worst loot mistake a raid group could have made. Our MT picked up the bindings I missed and completed the set a few weeks later.
  17. You can't break the Metal Wall. Paladins rule you!
  18. Log in to your old account and buy some gold. That'll get it done in a day or two.

    Hi Clumsy. If you'd like to tank, the best choice bar none is Warrior. Paladins didn't receive the attention or the abilities needed to distinguish themselves as tanks in any way - you would occasionally find one off-tanking something, but there are no situations where you'd want a Paladin tank over a Warrior. I would not take a Paladin tank into raids unless I had no other option. On the other hand, our Feral spot still hasn't been claimed. They're better at the OT role and more flexible in raids, too.
  20. If it was server side, as in, the breaking of their security and the harvesting of login credentials straight from the source, I could have a 300 character long password and change it every six hours and it wouldn't matter. I'd hate to look the fool for saying "yeah, sure", but, uh... Yeah, sure.
  21. The peasant would begin to refer to himself in the third person, seeking to emulate the grace the duke represents with his artfully crafted mode of elocution. But then he would decide that this was entirely too much effort, seeing as the last sentence took the peasant at least forty seconds to think up.

    Hi icedwards, Insane and DZL! icedwards, I've tried PJ1999 too! As I mentioned earlier in the thread. I didn't get terribly far beyond the lower leveled areas around freeport. Game really kicked my ass, but then again, I was primarily committed to something else at the time. As for your class choice, we've got, uh, 2 resto druids and 3 holy pallies at the moment, so you can really just pick your poison. I will say that in pvp, holy paladins are excellent kill deniers and can spam flash of light for days, whereas resto druids are more slippery and have some CC to work with. In PVE paladins are more of a staple healer and the druids earn their keep with innervate and combat rez. Insane, yeah man. We're light on hunters at the moment. Your friend can definitely join up and expect to raid, assuming all goes well. Would you make him post in this thread? That's my dirty secret to recruitment thread success - people follow people, heheh... DZL, amazingly, our token feral spot is still open. We only have two warlocks. As for healers, we're starting to look a little paladin heavy relative to priests, so I'd recommend priest - especially dwarf priest. We have 2 at the moment, and 3 would really let us cheese fear mechanics with low effort. I've sent all you guys PMs with our Discord server. See you hopefully on Saturday, if not sooner.
  23. Take that, hardcore guilds! This will be ours forever!
  24. As a result of draconian VPN and country IP blocking and banning. I can wait. I'm not in any hurry. I just want to play without those people, even if that means I don't get to play until February or March.
