Welcome European Players to Ghallanda!

[Anthios888]

First off, I want to welcome all European players who are moving over to the US's finest server, Ghallanda. I understand you all have gone through a really frustrating year over on the European servers.

I invite anyone to contact me through PMs if there is anything I can do to help you out. There are also several non-English guilds available on Ghallanda; we have an active French Canadian guild, some Spanish language guilds, and several Korean language guilds.

I would also like to introduce my guild, Ghallanda ReRolled, and invite newcomers to roll with us if they feel they are of like mind. The bulk of us are either playing at endgame & epic or speedleveling True Reincarnated characters. Obviously, many players will not fit this demographic due to either personal preference, limited playtime, or whatever. And, there may be powergamers out there who would prefer to avoid unconventional party makeups, battleclerics, and singing over the mic. We encourage creative building to flesh out abilities of characters beyond their class icons. So, you don't have to run with us, but we welcome you if this sounds like something that fits your interest.

Ghallanda ReRolled does not recruit openly, but we are happy to initiate new people who share our play style and verve once we have had a chance to meet them. I have much respect for the accomplishments of many non-U.S. players in the past. For example, it was a European guild that beat Ghallanda ReRolled to world first elite Tower of Despair.

Since I realize that many are coming over with language barriers, I would like to state that we are a group that values diversity and is open to accepting players even if English is not your first language. Communication will help; for example, if voice chat is hard to understand, just request that key information be shared in party chat. I think that the mergers are a good opportunity to share and develop alternate strategies for both the quests we have repeated again and again and also for the most cutting-edge DDO content. And, you can never have too many friends on DDO!

We are formed with the idea that the game's top players can also be friendly, respectful, and pleasant. Being a good player means keeping an open mind and having fun and goes beyond mere twitch skills or raid loot -- a cohesive guild environment benefits everyone.

Rerolled means:

* Tight-knit environment
* Cross-guild raiding and idea exchange
* A private forum laboratory for critical build discussion
* Pushing existing characters to their limits and beyond
* Mastering tried methods for all of the game's content as well as pioneering ingenuitive ways of running

Also, she promises not to make you sing the Ballroom Blitz if you don't want to.

However, you can sing if you want to. And leave your guild behind. Because your guild don't sing and if it don't sing, well...

[valorik]

Also worth noting for any europeans is that there was (if I remember correctly) a french national guild called Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh, though I haven't had the pleasure of grouping with them lately, and haven't seen them around a lot.

edit* I think they're a fairly small group of friends on further investigation, sorry for the confusion

[Uska]

I have to say all the people in the OP's guild I have ran with have been stellar especially the op and no thats not my guild


+1 to op

This seems an appropriate thread today for some reason.

[Jontas]

Oh indeed! Ahem.

Hello natives!

We come in peace... erm... in pieces...

We bring you glass baubles...
*looks at his wife Nemesia*
and cookies obviously...

*bows*

And while some will leave with the next wind, I expect many of us will stay. Thank you in advance for your hospitality and good wishes!

[Anthios888]

P.S. Ghallanda's better!

[Nomical]

Welcome European Ghallandans! It's a great server and we look forward to running with those of you who stick around.

I'm actually the official Ghallanda cookie import inspector. You can leave your cookies with me.

[Daerius of the Blessed Blades]

Thanks for the offers of cookies and baubles, but what I really want someone to bring me is a Tyskie! Got hooked on them during a brief stay in Poland and can't find the @#$% things in the States!


Mmmmmmmmmmm!

Oh and welcome (but not Hi, Welcome)...

*sniffles* T'is so sweet of you all to get up in the middle of the night to welcome us at the docks. Oh wait *checks her watch* It's not that late here, is it? Strange, must have lost some hours on the way...
Anyways, thanks a lot for the warm welcome. Makes us feel home a little more already.

Er... yay... as I said, uhm, thanks for the welcome. But... cookie INSPECTOR? *looks around nervously* You mean... you *coughs* INSPECT cookie imports? Ooh, uhm... *quickly lets the cookies slide back into her backpack* Unfoooortunately they are all... *closes her backpack carefully* gone. Yes. Eaten. I'm very sorry. Will bring more... cookies... soon. *sniffs and blinks innocently*

[Zadkiele]

Hey there. We're looking forward to adventuring with you. We still have an active guild on Keeper (just had a final night send-off to the server with some Elite raiding) that we will be moving en-mass, called The Spellswords.

See you soon!

Zad.

[Snowdancer]

Thx for the warm welcome.
Makes my horde of gimps arrive with a cozy feeling.
Nice statement by the OP, I'd say deserves more than a cooky. I'd gladly bake a giant cake for ya as arrival gift...but to prove I'm noobish: been scouting Rusty Nail for 2 years now and still haven't found the bathroom there.
So unless one's revealed the mystery of mentioned location and hasn't enduring exp. retreat and poison immunity...forget 'bout the cake - simply: "Looking forward to meet ya!" :-)))


..."bought this fp of ultimate slender waist, but where the *@#~ did the vendor leave the user manual???"...

* hides the bottles from the wine inspector*

I'm the official Ghallanda Rerolled wine inspector... *yoink*.

Credentials? Um... I like wine... I live near Napa, California so ya know... we shower in
the stuff here.
Favorite nearby wineries (in case you hop over the pond): Castillo di Amorosa and Cakebread

and cookies (apparently we're doing cookies and not cheese with our wine) The spicy ginger cookie - homemade is the best but the one from Peet's Coffee will do in a pinch.

[SlogUK]

Looking forward to meeting you guys. Looking forward to opening the lfm panel and seeing some lfms, rather than just doing everything through the who list and PMs. Hopefully the blending of three communities will be seamless and fun. I see no reason why it shouldn't.
