Chronicles of the Phailboat

Posted 02-17-2009 at 11:49 PM by Radhja
It's been quite a while since I've sat down and blogged about anything significant in WoW... I've been a little busy with my irl gf (who, appropriately enough, was discovered thru our mutual addiction to MMORPGs), and lots of guildhopping (mostly to avoid drama).

So, I've left the guild I built (Doja Dojo) once again, and this time I managed to bring the whole house down. The drama that ensues when online couples become IRL couples astounds me. The static it caused effectively dissolved...

T5, at last!

Posted 08-12-2008 at 10:50 AM by Radhja
Well, finally got my T5 Shoulders last night from ol' Loot Reaver. Fought hard for this one too, cause the Prot Paly CO and I have been shooting challenges at each other for the past month, and VR was the perfect place for us to test our skills against one another.

The fight started off smoothly, with the MT quickly securing his dominance as I struggled to stay within 20% of his lead, waiting for the knockback to shift the aggro to me, but that damn paladin was chasing me a little...

Abandon Ship! The Phailboat is sinking!!!

Posted 06-06-2008 at 12:53 PM by Radhja
I can't begin to convey how insanely irrate I am right now.

Drama has, once again, crept into my guild, and this time I think the damage it has caused is beyond repair. At least, beyond the amount of effort I'm willing to put forth to repair it.

It's one thing to boast about a new piece of gear to guildmates, or even to gloat a bit about being #1 of DPS meters, but when guildies begin deriding and belittling each other over these issues, feelings get hurt and it becomes...

As many of you know, I’ve suffered much distress about my guild situation as of late. I essentially dissolved the last guild I was in (Unite & Conquer), left two others, and eventually made my own in a fearless attempt at pioneering the uncharted waters of guild leadership. I don’t consider myself to be a natural-born leader (or even a good leader, at that), but I know how to bring people together and to open up avenues of communication.

That, if nothing else, has held my guild...

Epitome of Nubness: Drinking and Raiding

Posted 03-23-2008 at 07:49 AM by Radhja
Wow. You aren’t going to believe this one…

So, I come home from a long day at work at the ER and just wanted to relax. No guild runs to do, no big raids going on, no stressed-out heroic runs, no endless grinding for money… looked like another boring night, so I downed a couple shot of Jager and jumped into AB and started killing people.

Yeah, I said it. I’m Prot, and I’m actually killing people. Granted, I only get 4-6 killing blows in a game, but it takes a heaping...
