It came from the Blog: Server maintenance party

So your server will be down for a whole day (and probably then some) this Tuesday? Zangarmarsh (US-PvE) isn't. No, we're not taunting you. We're inviting you to join us for a server maintenance party. Our activity Tuesday night will be the stealing of fires in the Alliance capitals, to continue our Midsummer Fire Festival themed events.

This will be an all-levels event. So go ahead and create a level 1 to join us, if you don't already have a Horde character on Zangarmarsh. If you do, please bring your highest level character to make this go more smoothly. Here are the particulars:

• When: Tuesday, June 29 at 10:15 p.m. EDT (7:15 p.m. PDT, 8:15 p.m. realm time)

• Where: Meet at Splintertree Post in Ashenvale on Zangarmarsh (US-PvE-H)

• Who: Your highest Horde character, even if that means level 1

• What: Hopefully, a Thief's Reward hat for all

• How: Ask Robinator or any <It came from the Blog> guildie to join the guild; ranks of Lurker or higher can invite.

We will be gathering at Splintertree Post at 10:15 p.m., but will be leaving right at 10:30 p.m. Summons are for sissies, so log on early to make sure you're there on time. There will be deaths -- many, many deaths. In the interest of time and everyone's fun, just grab your bod and catch up.

More details and some suggestions are after the break.

Tips and stuff to know if you are new to our events

Yay! Another bullet list!

• There will be no raid group. Guild chat will be raid chat and I will use ALL CAPS to be heard. So no shouting but me!

• We are over 500! The guild roster bugs out in guilds that are larger than 500. My guess is that we have over 700 guildies. So if you are invited, don't expect to see your name show up in the roster or for the roster to show how many people are on. Also, /who only shows up to 49 people, so that's no good for these events either.

• Death Knights take about 2 hours to get from spawn to Thrall's blessing. It may take you less, but please allow plenty of time before the event to make a DK -- if that's how you wish to join us.

• You may want to turn down your graphics. Many people in one place = icky FPS for some.

• It's all about fun!

For those who want to listen to me babble and/or are unable to attend the event, I will be streaming it on my Ustream channel. The audio tends to lag behind, so refresh often. Hope to see you there!

Please join us on Zangarmarsh (US-PvE-H) in <It came from the Blog>. Ask Robiness, Robinemia or any member online for an invite. Guild ranks of Lurker or above have the ability to invite. You are all welcome as long as you play by our simple rules, which can be summed up with "Don't be a Funsucker!" Also, please see the guild FAQ for the most common questions.
