    Default I love Adobo! - A Filipino/GMT+8 Guild on Orien


    Adobo is the most popular Filipino dish enjoyed by all classes, and is usually served with steamed white rice. Like the dish, our aim is to make Adobo known to Orien as not just a GMT+8 guild that's comprised mostly of Filipinos. Rather, we aim to show the unique blend of hard work, perseverance, camaraderie, and friendship that exists in our guild just like the spices in our favorite dish.

    Are we a raiding guild? Yes and no. We're not after swelling our guild's ranks with as many level 20's as possible and going after all the server firsts. We realize that taking a game too seriously has dangerous real life consequences. The point of playing is to have fun. With that in mind, once it stops being fun for you or your actions cause someone to stop having fun, then that's when the game stops looking like a hobby and more like a job. A crummy job that has no salary and no dental plan.

    Does that mean that we're a social guild? Yes and no. Just like everyone else, it's fun to get to level 20 fast. It's fun to dress your character up in the best loot possible. It's fun to TR till your head explodes and you unlock the mysteries of the universe (hence the +2 to all stats/skills). We wish our members only the best when it comes to what makes them happy: endgame raiding, multiple TR's, Epic grinding, etc. But not at the expense of a broken eardrum from getting yelled at because they didn't know what to do or emotional distress resulting from guild leaders and officers stroking their e-peens at the cost of others.


    The Recipe:

    Estimated cooking time: about 2 weeks.

    Adobo Ingredients:

    * 1 senile guild leader with a peculiar affinity to miniature giant space hamsters
    * 1 cleric that always gets mistaken as a chick even though he's a dude, minced
    * 2 sorcerers that activates their wonder twin powers at will, diced
    * 1 rickety airship (yes it flies, no it's not the Ritz)
    * 1 cup of raiding stuff on elite every week. Astronomical repair bills are secondary to good times on voice chat.
    * 2 cups of determination that F2P players can buy all the required packs in the game if they stop spending it on stuff like hair dyes and +1 full plates.
    * 1 teaspoon paprika
    * 5 laurel leaves (bay leaves)
    * 4 tablespoons of grease (as long as it doesn't hurt the quest and its done in good taste)
    * 2 tablespoons of keeping our feet on the ground and head from blowing up from too much ego.
    * Salt and pepper to taste
    * And last, but certainly not least. Anyone who appreciates what we stand for, who we are, and actively plays during on GMT+8 prime time.

    There are a few good guilds out there. Unfortunately, they operate on US prime times. This is our shot at making an active, close-knit guild that loves the game on a GMT+8 timezone, without being ****s.

    Thanks for reading this and if your interested, feel free to look up any of our members and chat them up. We all understand English, contrary to what people might think.

    Just a little update:

    We usually do guild raids on Sundays at around 8 PM GMT. We've already completed the Shroud on Elite and VoD/HoX on Hard (We shortmanned VoD on Hard with just 11 people - plus our tank DCed at the start. Who'd thunk it? XD). I realize it's nothing compared to the more established guilds out there, but it's a step in the right direction.

    We're almost guild level 27 and growing steadily. Looking forward to hearing from you guys soon!
