Let's face it: The PA community is badass. Whenever I play a game and I end up playing it with you PA nerds, I have five times the fun (and I'm not even kidding)--be it Advance Wars, TF2, L4D, etc, etc.

One game I've never had the pleasure of playing with you guys is WoW, and WoW is the kind of game that is made slightly more bearable if you're playing it with fun people/friends. There are a multitude of guilds for various games, but very few of them seem to be on EU servers, so I propose that we start an EU WoW guild. I can see myself playing on either PvP or PvE, on either side--though to be honest, I'd prefer Alliance, as my Hordie just transferred to a new server where all my IRL friends are playing, and creating ANOTHER Blood Elf would be pretty boring.

We could start from scratch on any server, or we could migrate characters, or whatever--I just want to get this going and grow as a community in peace, harmony, and killing defenseless animals.

What say you?

I've got the following characters:

Kannaduki, an 80 Blood Elf Rogue on Vashj
Wavefront, a 12 Draenei Shaman on Al'Akir (NOT ANYMORE HO HO HO)

Both are PvP servers. I'd really like to go Shaman this time around, and I've found that I enjoy Draenei immensely, so I'm sorta leaning towards and Alliance Guild. <Deep Crows>, perhaps? I'd gladly hear your suggestions, and look forward to playin' with you guys.

tl;dr: let's make an EU guild, magets

I'd stay away from Magtheridon if I were you - the server is currently listed as Full but as I type this there are only 14 level 80 Alliance online. Slight population imbalance there I think.

Hedwirez

I would be up for casual play, running instances etc, if we get a decent amount of people.

I am unsure whether I'd manage 0 to 80 all over again but have horde alts of varying levels I could bring in if we went horde and I dropped behind. I am 90% on Dentarg horde with a 69 and 70.

Ive always been tempted by a tanking role, maybe a paladin would be fun.

Senshi

I'd be going Resto Shaman endgame, trying to practice healing as much as possible up until then. Orc sucks, though, and Tauren are dull <.<

planetes42

TROLL!

Saint Justice

Are you calling him a Troll or recommending the Troll race? Cause Trolls are pretty cool. The ones w/ tusks, I mean. =P

Fatgoat87

I dont play on the EU anymore... But wish ya luck with setting up a PA guild there.

gazamc

A couple of us still play on Maggy EU. However maggy is awful nowadays. No alliance and no sense of community whatsoever. It had its soul sucked out by the uber guilds and the people that want to be part of that.

Muppetman

Would be interested in this, currently Horde on Terenas EU so a look at life on the other side of the fence this time round might be fun - Draenei shaman perhaps?

Afty

I would be interested in this, i have a plethora of characters on Draenor.

Alliance Warlock - 70 Afty
Horde Paladin - 80 Chaffinch
Horde Hunter - 70 Krar

would happily roll somewhere new as Alliance or Horde and would probably take Rogue as thats something i haven't done yet.

Edit, are there any recently opened EU servers?

reVerse

Azuremyst and Terokkar are the most recent brand new realms.

Afty

A Fresh start on a new realm might be nice.

Some decisions should be made now though so that people know what they can expect and this doesn't die on its ass like these EU recruitment threads usually do.

Alliance or Horde? - suggest Alliance.
Server - suggest new - Azuremyst sounds nice.

gazamc

I will say I am interested in this. I am a hordie usually, but I could make an exception.

quaigy

Oh yeah, if you're alliance, stay the fuck away from Mag. The poor server is as good as dead.

Afty

Is it Mag that has Nihilium (not sure about that spelling!) on it?

quaigy

Yeah, and thanks to them and the mouth-breathers that idolize them, the horde population kept on growing while all the big alliance guilds transfered away one after another. One or two month ago, Blizz suddenly noticed the population imbalance and offered free transfer to Emeriss, which also had a pitiful H/A ratio. Now Mag is as good as dead, with maybe 3 or 400 alliance players at 8 pm, against 3K hordies.

planetes42

afty, you have guys on Draenor? You do know that's where the other PA guild rolled up right?

Think he is on Draenor EU as opposed to the other PA guild on Draenor US

Afty

Thats right.

planetes42

aha, was not aware that they use the same server names for EU & US.

Carry on, don't mind me.

Grobian

I don't even have enough time to play on my own server (not 80 yet -.-) but I might make an alt whereever you roll just to try out a non-german server.

/edit: I'd probably advise against a new server as those often are kinda empty. Also RP-PvX is nice, if only for the less frequent stupid names.

Italax

I'm on Talnivarr with a load of RL friends but I hate the server itself. I'd be willing to roll a new character to play with you guys, maybe a mage or druid, fuck levelling another priest.

Terokkar is definately pretty empty, but I keep hearing good things about Azuremyst. Apparently the community over there is pretty good as opposed to a bunch of drooling shitbags, and it's fairly well populated. I don't have any firsthand knowledge about this, but I haven't really heard any bad things about the realm.

Echo

Sadly, I don't see us scraping together enough Europeans for this. We had a nice guild going way back when, first on Shadowmoon and then transferred off to Magtheridon (no, not because of the Nihilum twats, they were nonames back then), but we merged with another guild to start raiding and I think most PA people have stopped playing or moved elsewhere since.

I'm horde on Moonglade, with some RL friends, and I can't really see myself rolling fresh elsewhere. So sick and tired of the old world now.

danx

I'm up for this if it happens. Used to play a lot but can only manage a few hours a night a few nights a week now. I was horde on Nagrand for a long time but I would probably start a mage/lock/shammy or maybe a paladin from scratch. Faction doesn't matter.

Terokkar is still PCT locked (until 22nd/23rd January) and seemed to have an artificially low realm queue (though it is very short 1-10 people in queue at busy times). Don't know about Azuremyst but if it's a higher population I'd recommend it over Terokkar which seems pretty quiet.

Senshi

Welp, I'm totally up for an Alliance guild--really want to do the Draenei Shaman thing. A new server would be cool.

Takers? Name suggestions?

Afty

Ok

Lets go Alliance On Azuremyst.

Would be cool if you could update the OP with Forum name & Character Name/Class of those that have said they will roll.

Going to roll my Rogue now, hopefully called Afty... (orginal)

Echo

Well, I do have an alliance rogue at 70 sitting unplayed...

Afty

You know what they say, a rogue is a terrible thing to waste.


That is what they say isnt it ?

Senshi

Creating an alliance character on Azuremyst now. Post names and classes upon creation!

danx

Made a draenie mage called Neeps on Azuremyst earlier.

Is there a temporary PA channel?

Senshi

That was a stupid oversight on my part. /join PA whenever you get online, it'll be a good meeting hub for everyone!

Afty

Rolled my Dorf Rogue now, level 6 and rocking

Senshi

I'm level 6, too!

SpongeCake

Fuck yeah, EU guild. I'm Bron, the Dorf Paladin. Planning on going Prot for all your tanking needs.

Or Holy if I get bored.

danx

If you want some free bags gimme a shout (Neeps). Only 6 slots at the moment and I'm out of linen but there are 6/7 bags left. Post here and I'll pop on for a few mins to post them or catch me in game later.

Afty

Guild Created with the incredibly original (but fitting) name of Obsidian Spur.

Whisper Afty, Neeps, Veila or Bron for an invite.

Senshi get on :P

Echo

Obsidian Spur nevar forget

Senshi

haven't been on in a while, just got back to gothenburg and the trainride (coupled with sleep deprivation) killed me. I just woke up, and it's like 0300.

failllllllllll

I'll get on briefly tomorrow, but I doubt I'll be playing a lot this week due to an exam.

OP updated, too

Afty

So azuremyst is a really weird experience for me at the minute, there are low level players EVERYWHERE and i haven't seen that for a long time.

Also the amount of gold sellers is ridiculous.

Guild is going well though think we have 9 or 10 members now, LFG Gnomer.

Senshi

so I finally finished a project today after doing my History of Architecture exam, I have nothing--NOTHING--until monday, so bring on the levels.

Bring them the fuck on.

also neeps is the nicest guy
