So you think you have what it takes?!

Short and stocky orc walks up and down the line of new recruits. Heat is distorting the air above the cracked red Durotar soil. This land haven't seen a drop of water for months. Huge scar across the orc's face starting at his ear and traveling across the cheekbone to his mouth is crooking his face to one side making him constantly having this twisted, crooked grin. But the orc isn't smiling.
Line of recruits are staring at him as he passes. Streak of grey is going through his hair. He appeared past his prime, but his eyes were more than alive. His entire appearance emmited a hidden bestial strength, like a sleeping lion you don't want to wake up.

He stopped in the middle of the line and eyed the recruits up and down. They were all shapes, sizes and races. Volounteers coming to this tough place from different reasons, but a single goal. Their appearance was the worst he has ever seen - month after month we get worse and worse - he thought for himself. Their armor was all shapes and sizes, sometimes too big, sometimes too small - for now this will just have to do. He knew he had to teach them everything he knows, and do it fast.

"Alright maggots! ... Take a good look at the land beneath your feet. Take a good look at it. See how cracked it is? - Well this land is thirsty, and it is thirsty of your blood. It hasn't been drinking anything but blood for as far as I can remember and it will drink blood of a fresh stubborn people unwilling to learn long after it swallows my bones. You will learn - or you will die - death is just a matter of time here."

"In the following weeks I will teach you everything you need to know to survive and work as a part of the horde. I will bash it into your heads if I have to. There are only two options, you learn and live or you are stubborn and you die. That is all. Now go to your quarters, get some sleep because that will be the last sleep you will enjoy for a while - tomorrow, you will curse the day you have been born."

OOC: We will organise "training days". Once per week, under supervision of me or one of the officers, we will go to any instance depending on the level of the players and we will finish it. Focus will be on working in a team, filling certain roles, giving and taking orders, also indirrectly we will practice the secret skills of "being there on time" "being prepared". Make note that we will not waste time on getting quests and such, if you want them finished at that time, make sure you gather all the quests you want finished. You have to show up 15 minutes earlier, at the given place with your gear in order and repaired and potions/water/food/bandages and whatever else you think you need ready in your inventory. You HAVE to have teamspeak installed even if you don't have a microphone or you don't want to speak, you need to be able to listen. If you don't know how to do it, come to one of us and we will talk you through the process of setting it up.

Cheers!

I think idea about "trainig day" is good because a lot of mambers complaing thay are boreth and dont do instances

The problem we have right now is that not many people are on the same level except lvl 60, and not many of those arround either. That will fix itself after the summer is over I think, but untill then we have to stick with it. While trainings will get some action, they will happen only once per week for start and that will solve the "learn to play" problem, but wont solve people bored. Only having many people at same level solves that issue, just like you, Bullus and Grimey went on teaming alot throughout leveling, going to instances and everything. We are not a small guild, we have a decent amount of players, however, understandable is that many of them are absent at this time of the year.
 
LOL Jefi..

Choose "other" and type in your name next time you post.. :D
