Thanks to my guildies for a great birthday present.

[Fourfingers]

So there it was, I log in during this holiday weekend ready to sit down for some regular epics/raids. I find an LFM up for an EV6 and swap to a toon off timer. Only three people in the group so shouldn't be a problem getting in on my rogue/ranger. Click join.. and wait.. After about thirty seconds.. *ding* declined. What the .... Are they really holding nine spots? There were no casters or toons with rogue skills, so I know my lockpicks could have been useful. After a quick rant in-guild about being declined, a fellow guildie comments they want to run an EV6 as well, so let's run our own. Hey, I'm game, and hopefully I won't get declined from that group! We spread the word and quickly start to get interest and the group forms - yay I'm in! Uneventful von5 - the regular people piking at the beginning, etc. As the group nears getting full an LFM goes up competing with the other LFM up, my group is over half full and I believe the other group still has less. I was told the other party leader sent a tell asking to merge. I noticed a couple people from the other LFM hitting ours. It was then why I was told I was declined. Because when someone myddo'd me I was wearing a shield when I logged out.. and who can trust a rogue with a shield? Seriously? I had to laugh because now everyone from the other LFM had joined our group except the other party leader.

Anyway, thanks again to my guildies for leading an EV6 and more importantly letting my rogue join who logged out with a shield equipped. I have no idea why that other party leader never joined our group - but then again, who would want to accept them - how much damage can an equipped stack of scrolls do anyway?

Oh, and myself and some friends had another good laugh about that in a tower raid where the main tank went incap and Horoth started running smacking the next melee in line with agro. After a couple deaths my rogue was at the top of the agro list all I could hear in voice chat was "Dude pull out your shield! lol!"

Thanks again to my guildies for a great raid (like always) and a fun birthday of raiding.

Wait, your own guildies MyDDO you and won't allow you into their groups? Wow, that is sad! Well, at least now I know if you get kicked from your guild, not to allow you to become a Clown! :P

*disclaimer* This post is not to be taken seriously! And now, back to your regularly scheduled trolling!

If your going to read something read it right. I'll let you go back and use your brain a bit bro. And just so you know, "if" I get kicked from guild then it will be because I'm an "prick", not because my toons are undergeared. Thanks for the foot in the mouth, made my day go a bit smoother.

Shhhh....I have kids to use this on! Good thing they don't read the DDO forums, I guess. Well, one doesn't read anything just yet!

Happy Birthday!

Since you brought up Guilds and Guildmember Birthdays, I'll share what we do for our birthday members;

Birthday boy/girl chooses the Raid. ALL loot, and I mean ALL, goes to the birthday person.

Good for some laughs, birthday person hopefully gets some nice loot they are looking for, and some quick plat. Been a real hit for us and its good for our members and our Guild.

LOL I wish my guildies just tend to get me more drunk I dont need loot though I'll take the laughs over anything

[QuantumFX]

So…

Run raid… Kill Kalari… Turn over “blessed chest” loot to Kalari?

I’ll get Krieg in on this.

I turned this on to a friend and now they do it as well on their home server and posted it here in hopes it will spread.

Not only does it do a good job to celebrate a friends birthday but also helps promote some Guild unity. Real bonus when we do an Epic run for a birthday and the loot Gods are celebrating with us.

More posts I read by you Kalari, more I wanna join in on one of your runs. Sounds like you 'guys' have a blast!
