Last night, Hoodscooters achieved a milestone in Obsidian Sanctum: we took it down with two drakes up! Not only that but we also finished all three instances 30 minutes before our hard stop.
Congratulations, guys! You worked hard, did fabulous and you all deserve your Twilight Duo achievement.
This afternoon, one little Dwarf set his sights on one massive adventure. He braved the hopeless wastelands of the Searing Gorge, shielding his eyes with his hand to keep the flames from burning him.
Alas! He spotted what he sought far in the distance: Blackrock Mountain. And in it? The Molten Core.
His heart raced and he picked up his pace, moving faster than any little Dwarf was known to. Navigating through twisted hallway after hallway, he finally found the entrance. As he surveyed the lava-strewn cave, he drew in a deep breath and unsheathed his weapons. The time was now.
In three and a half hours, MC has been conquered. Eruk started the battle and fought on by himself for over a hour before I joined him. About 30 minutes from the end, Belarath and Bachstail joined us for extra firepower.
Many players are receiving a convincing fraud e-mail that tells them their account is under investigation because it was reported that they are selling or trading their account. It comes from noreply@blizzard.com and is written much the same as Blizzard writes their official e-mails.
An investigation of your World of Warcraft account has found strong evidence that the account in question is being sold or traded. As you may not be aware of, this conflicts with Blizzard's EULA under section 4 Paragraph B which can be found here: WoW -> Legal -> Terms of Use
The investigation will be continued by Blizzard administration to determine the action to be taken against your account. If your account is found violating the EULA and Terms of Use, your account can, and will be suspended/closed/or terminated.
In order to keep this from occurring, you should immediately verify that you are the original owner of the account.
To verify your identity please visit the following webpage: https://www.worldofwarcraft.com/logi...t%2Findex.html
Only Account and Billing Management will be able to assist with account retrieval issues. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter, and your continued interest in World of Warcraft.
Sincerely,

If you receive this e-mail (I did this morning), do not visit the links. When you mouse over the link they want you to go to, you'll notice it has some weird stuff in there like "freehostia" and a few other off things. Forward it to hacks@blizzard.com, delete it and move on. If you are especially concerned, you can send an e-mail to Blizzard's Account Department here and ask for confirmation that your account is in good standing and is not under investigation.
The PayPal modification is working again! Actually, it's an all new hack, but still...
I'm in the progress of updating the website graphics, which also includes redoing our post icons/emoticons. I made a good dent in it yesterday but I still have more to do. So don't panic if you see the forum changing while you're viewing it.
Additionally, I do have some hacks that I want to install for vBulletin. You may see random phrases popping up through the website. I am not a programmer and have a very, very small grasp of coding. I do most of my testing live because it's easier for me and I run out of clever, witty phrases to inject into the code.
I'm also working on some color schemes for the forum, including one that caters to our tabard. I've attached a sample of what I'm working on to this post.
As you may have noticed, both Bachstail and Teracroix are no longer officers. Both of them gave up their positions by choice, Bachstail taking a break from WoW altogether and Teracroix taking a break from raiding.
Thank you, Bachstail and Teracroix, for the dedication that you've both given this guild. I am sure I speak for all of us in the guild when I say that I wish you good luck and happy times.
We did a very good job last night - we got 5 bosses down! We struggled a little bit on XT-002 Deconstructor but we got it down after a couple of tries.
Sere Vala
MC.
