			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So this past week I&#8217;ve finally managed to make it into ICC and down a few bosses!  Included in that package was the ability to get the Ashen Verdict ring going which is very cool.  I also finally managed to upgrade my cloak via frost emblems, hadn&#8217;t done that since Naxx, lol.  With that I have definitely seen a vast dps improvement, which makes me happy.  I don&#8217;t really care about topping the charts, so much as not weighing everyone else down.</p>
<p>-I hate Lord Marrowgar for the simple fact that the encounter makes my computer run like crap.<br />
-Lady Deathwhisper was a piece of cake pretty much.<br />
-The gunship battle is very cool and also seems really easy.<br />
-Deathbringer Saurfang isn&#8217;t bad once you have a system down for dealing with the blood beasts.<br />
-Sir Fart-a-lot (Festergut) went down eventually although we just barely beat the enrage timer, which unfortunately is an insta-wipe or we might have downed him earlier.<br />
-Rotface is a fairly technical fight so we haven&#8217;t quite got it down yet.</p>
<p>We only made a couple attempts at the Blood Princes before everyone got massively confused, lol.</p>
<p>I did watch the Fall of the Lich King movie online, but I won&#8217;t spoil it here, suffice it to say it was pretty cool and I&#8217;ll be interested to see it in-game someday.</p>
<p>In other news, I plan on getting Vorya on a pvp team this arena season, just for kicks even, so we&#8217;ll see how that goes.  I finally grinded up my hunter&#8217;s leatherworking so he can start on the Northrend patterns and continue leveling out there (he&#8217;s been stuck at 70 for a while now).  I had a panic attack the other day when I thought I lost some heirloom items, only to find out they were just sitting in one of my toon&#8217;s mailbox.  <img src='http://www.wowguideonline.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   Everyone else is coming along slowly but surely still and I&#8217;m enjoying every minute of it!</p>
<p>So, what&#8217;s new with you?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, maybe you&#8217;re new to WoW and are thinking, &#8220;What&#8217;s a guild and why should I join?  Whose guild do I choose?  Are there different types of guilds?&#8221;  Or maybe you&#8217;ve been playing for awhile and have been in 1 or more guilds during that time.  Either way you have a choice.  I&#8217;m going to cover some basic guild types, but I&#8217;d love to hear your opinions on different kinds of guilds.  My intention is simply to raise awareness of what&#8217;s available out there.  <img src='http://www.wowguideonline.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   (My terms for types of guilds were created by me and are from no other sources than my personal opinion)</p>
<p>Bank Guild &#8211; A guild simply set up for one or more people to use to store stuff.  It can be a single person with several alts who just wants the extra space a guild bank provides.  It can also act as a way for that player to be on with an alt and avoid getting invited to 14 million random guilds.  This can also serve a small group of players, such as friends or family members that use the bank together for storage.</p>
<p>Family Guild &#8211; If a group of players are all related and want to spend time specifically with their family while playing they may create a strictly family guild.  No recruiting necessary <img src='http://www.wowguideonline.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Friends Guild &#8211; Pretty much the same as a family guild, probably no recruiting happening and usually these are Real Life friends who also play together.</p>
<p>&#8220;Fun&#8221; Guild &#8211; Basically a group of people interested in playing WOW for it&#8217;s base purpose, to have fun.  Working together to complete quests, holiday events, socialize, and just enjoy the game.  This is not meant to say other guilds are not fun, but there is just no specific goal to this kind of guild except to enjoy your time in WOW.</p>
<p>Raid Guild &#8211; A group of people who are excited and motivated to plan and execute raids, 10-25 man instances.  In order to have a successful Raid Guild it must include: players who are well geared, or on their way there;  dedicated times for such raids, including a calendar with sign-ups;  players who are serious about succeeding in the raids;  leaders who are willing to put in a lot of time to organize and keep the raid on target;  active recruiting for players ready to jump into raids.  This of course is not an exhaustive list, but you get the idea.  Raid guilds can most certainly be fun, but you just need to know what you are committing to.</p>
<p>Combo Guild &#8211;  Of course as with everything there is the guild that is made up of a little bit of everything!  Family, friends, those just leveling and questing, those trying to get raids going, etc.</p>
<p>Essentially, check around for the type of guild you want to be a part of.  Ask around, talk to members of different guilds, get a feel for how each guild works, see if your personality and play style fits the group you join.  The purpose of WOW is to have fun, just find a group that you can have fun with! </p>
<p>Now&#8230;.GO PLAY WoW!!!!!!!  <img src='http://www.wowguideonline.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   See you there!</p>
