Val left Sync?

How is Sync doing anyways, you all in a preCata doldrums thing or muddling along doing stuff and not letting the usual preExpansion nonsense get to people?

No idea, I'm playing Horde ;D

Val took his priest out of the guild to join Corpse Run, a 25 man raiding guild. Think he wanted to experience the end game content and a reasonably serious level.

synch is plodding along from my point of view people did leave for various other guilds or stopped playing.

guild does manage to get 10 mans up and running most of the time so keeps some people happy and ofc heroics for badges is pretty strong.

backdraft once he got to 80 spent about 4 weeks getting geared up so he can take part in most things.

and as you know it is now holding pattern time waiting for cata so ppl are playing on and off like me.

val took his priest to corpse run guild to do 25 man stuff but has left his warrior in synch methinks he has the best of both worlds.

fian was playing on a rp server for a extended period but is back now a brought and good few ppl with him, nice ppl they are too so they fit it great.

Yeah, it's all good. Getting gear via badges is super easy mode now, so have my Pally, Hunter and DK all geared up nicely.

THF is still going. We've seen quite a major reshuffle in the officer ranks and a new GM. The new GM is an RL friend of mine, and the officers are mostly new to, with only myself and Baldrian (Frozzone's RL mate) being officers from before TBC.

Still, recruitment seems to be going nicely, and we've re-focused on the social side of the guild, and have lost quite a few hardcore-like players along the way. Not really a bad thing.

Only problem now is, I'm getting bored again :D

Billi is in lemmings and i do raids with him now and then, Nim left with a few others and created a new guild a while ago with them(she seem to have left again), wich was a shock to people as they gave no mention about it up front. Actually Nim wasnt a shock to me from past experiences but some of the others were.
I think we had someone else applying that i remembered from hoj days but i cant remember the name and if they got in.

It has been 3 weeks since i last even logged into any MMO and it feels good.

[snip]

As i get "better" i find that i actually detest ALL MMOs as to me they were a crutch i used to while away the hours and take my mind off things. So im giving them up, you may see me occasionally in LOTRo but not much, i may still try SWTOR but im thinking not.

All they mean to me is an immeasurable timesink, which, if im honest, results in hours of tedium doing the same shit over and over again. That is not fun and i think will eventually be the collapse of MMOs as a genre they are timesinks pretending to be content. They stop you seeing life and being as big a part in it as you could possibly be, now im not saying a few hours here and there is bad but who plays them that way, they arent designed around that concept.

Ill be lurking the boards inputing when its not needed ;)

[snip]

I wish you addicts luck with your online pixelated conquests, and ill say hi if i see you on my occasional visits to other worlds.

Thats how I got back into WoW. Showed one of my old toons to a mate on the Armoury and realised I had recent activity even though I had not been subbed up for 6 months.

Garry, if your on a trial, roll Horde side. You know you want to, and I can get you in THF :D

Some Achievments award titles and mounts. Pet's now get talent trees like players, accesible from your talent window. Think you get them as your pet levels up, every 4 or so levels I think.

if your going to be using your mage once you hit 80 grind the hell out of "trial of the champion" instance.

you can get about 7 items for a mage there which are good 80 starter purples then go on to the random heroics for badges to get better gear

a good way of getting a nice flying mount is by doing the culling of stratholme heroic instance which if you do the timed run you get a chance to roll on a bronze drake.

the occulus heroic also gives you a chance of getting a blue drake from the last boss.

doing a certain amount of achievments in i think northrend heroics can get you a red drake.

and doing 10 man obsidian sanctum can get you a black drake we have several people in synchronicity with them.
