Subject:	Looking for Rp guild...
Security:	Public

Hi All! I'm new to this community. A friend referred me here after I told him about my frustration trying to find a Rp guild. I'm experienced player with 2 lvl 70's and I've played every class till atleast lvl 30 on Silver Hand. I'm in the U.S. eastern/central time zone and I don't mind transferring or starting over on a new server.

What I'm looking for...

I'm NOT looking for heavy raiding. I am more than willing to help others in instances, quest, etc. but multiple weekly raids is just not what I want.

I prefer Alliance, but if a hoarde guild has a good story and players I might be interested. I have played hoarde into the 40's twice on Kirin Tor, so I do have some experience on that side.

I am willing to...

use Rp plugins
write a Rp blog or on Rp forums
do frequent in-game Rp
help with quests and instances

Please feel free to drop me a message if I sound like I might be a good fit for your guild :)

Subject:	Sister of Elune - Weekly Events
Security:	Public

Over the past few months there have been a few new events that now take place weekly on our server and more details can be found on our Sisters of Elune RP Community on livejournal located @ http://community.livejournal.com/soerp/ .

1. The Al Diel Shala Thursday night events have been switched to Sunday evenings (sorry, had to change based on new work schedules).

This Sunday Al Diel Shala will be hosting a “Pirate Storytelling” night. A treasure chest filled with items will be brought to shore and those dressed as a pirate gets to receive one to tell a story about it. If they are a good speaker, they get to keep it!!!. More info on event

2. Keepers of the Origins host an open themed storytelling night every Wednesday at 7:30 server time. More info

3. Al Diel Shala is looking to work with various guilds on the server to get a battle bot competition going.

We will be hosting an open RP event on the server to battle the newest vanity pet to be made available, the Battle Bot.

Once you complete the process to get the pet, one of them is mailed (through the game mail) to each of your characters. Also, rumor has it, if you make a new character it’s also mailed to the new character (as long as its done in the event time). So if anyone wants to join us for this RP event its quite possible for you to do so!! Not sure how to get the pet? More info here..

Security:	Public
Mood:	hopeful

Greetings,


This is my first post on these boards and I'm hoping someone can help me. I've been playing WoW for a few years now and have become a little jaded with the dailies and the raiding and was looking for something to put the fun back into the game. I thought I'd try seeing the game from the Alliance perspective for the first time and thought I'd try something totally new to me and go to an RP server as before I've only ever played on a PvP server.

I've found myself missing friendly and witty green chat on my screen and was hoping to find a small friendly casual guild for a small friendly casual dwarf. 


My characters called Jongie - currently level 16 - and may hit the dizzy heights of level 17 tonight.

Thanks for your time.

Subject:	Noble Garden RP Event Idea Exchange
Security:	Public

Heyas… this little thread is here to exchange some ideas for gathering around and having a little fun during the Noble Garden holiday week currently taking place in wow.

I have no idea if it’s the same on every RP server… where people are camping the spawn points and snarling, growling, and shooing others away… As a LOT of that was happening on Sisters of Elune, horde side. But even among the not so nice curse words freely being exchanged there…. I can count quite a few friendly moments of meeting new rp’ers which was a blast. I mean come on; the event gave what many rp’ers wanted… players moving outside cybermoon city to interact with others!

Plus this event has given us quite a few new toys to have fun with others. So why not use them to the full advantage and play some games and come up with some ways to get some fun, light hearted rp going and maybe meet even a few more people along the way?

Curious for a few ideas as to what you can do? How about a Rabbit Hopping Contest (suggested “rules” and locations inside comment area), Rabbit Racing, Private Egg Hunts & egg coloring contests, and so on… have an idea to make it better? Share it.

Have another idea entirely? Share it… in other words; why not share what you have been doing on your own server with the Noble Garden vanity toys?

Security:	Public

Hello!

I've definitely noticed some survey fatigue among hardcore WOW players so I thought I would try posting this to a smaller livejournal community.  If you are offended by research questions and surveys please avert your eyes now!  If not, then please consider taking 10 minutes to take this anonymous voluntary survey about the sense of community provided by World of Warcraft.:

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=upQ0gxCbjTBeXpUqy0D4SQ_3d_3d

I am studying Urban Planning at the University of Maryland and one of my group projects this semester is researching what defines a community.  My group is specifically studying the virtual environment of World of Warcraft to see if users feel a strong sense of community within and outside of the game.  The survey is just the first step and if you leave your email at the end I will forward you the results and you may be contacted for a brief follow-up interview (completely optional).

If this post goes against your livejournal community rules please delete it and accept my apologies.  Otherwise, thanks for considering our survey!

Security:	Public

I'm glad I found this place. I come to you wonderful people on bended knee for advice. I wanted to start playing WoW again on an rp server. I'm gonna tell you now that the only experience I have as far as being on an rp server is playing on one for a week, not being able to make any gold to support my toon and that some weirdo started getting all creepy with my draenei hunter by saying they were destined to be together or some odd shit like that.

I previously stopped playing WoW because I was playing by myself and the guild I was in said it was a guild that helped lower level players get fast levels, but that never happened. Mind you this was on a normal server. To make a long story short, I deleted my toon and stopped playing for a while.

Now I want a fresh start. I was wondering on which server I should get on to get into a worthwhile guild, have some fun without getting a headache by stupid people and their speshul toons? I know that there are these people on every server, but I just want to get my first real rp experience.

Hello! This may or may not be a strange request but... here it goes.

I'm kind of shy when it comes to starting something new. I'm not new to WoW or RP... but I'm new to the combination of the two. I've never RP'ed in a MMO before. I've started out with one liners to paragraphs in yahoo chat and moved on to forums. Now I'm in a few one on one games with friends.

I understand the idea of WoW RP but I guess I'm... finding it hard to get started. I end up lurking a lot and have yet to actually TRY. I know in learning to do something you sometimes have to just step up and do it. But here I am trying to get my foot in the door. ^^;

I'm kind of looking for someone who might want to take me on as an RP buddy. Someone I can talk to OOC for a while, maybe dream up characters we can play together or plots that my character can interact with one of your already made characters.

I have characters on Wrymrest Accord alliance side that I made with the intention of RPing with, but I wouldn't mind starting over on a different server/faction if anyone is interested.

Let me know. :]

Subject:	A little help with an rp set?
Security:	Public

So, I want to get the Defias Leather set as an rp outfit for my baby rogue on the Silver Hand server, but I've run Deadmines several times already, both with a friend (who initially suggested the set), and by myself, and all I've gotten so far is the gloves. :( I know the chest armor is bind-on-pickup, but is there anyone on the Silver Hand server, ally-side, who is willing to buy the boots, belt and leggings for me, and do a switch in Booty Bay, or something? I have the gold to pay back for it. :3 The Bandit Shoulders or Scouting Spaulders would also be greatly appreciated, though not required.

Thanks a bunch! <3

Got everything but the chest and shoulder pieces :D

Every Thursday a small group of us do little contests, explorations, and what have you at places outside of the major cities on the Sisters of Elune server. Tonight (April 9th), the gathering will take place at the Darkmoon Fair (outside of Thunderbluff) and people are welcomed to participate or taste the foods being prepared during the cook off, enjoy a dance or two, ride the cannon, and pick up a new friend a jubbling (ale will be distributed for people to get one).

Anyone is welcomed to come (if you want to roll an alt on the server, your more than welcomed to) as we will have a mage that can portal you on over to Thunderbluff. If interested, feel free to hit me up on Faeti. The “IC” flyer will be posted in a follow up reply.

Any comments/suggestions/ideas for improvement on rp events are more than welcomed. I am new at it (even if this is like our 6^th event).

Subject:	What are common expectations someone can have when rp’ing in a city?
Security:	Public

 I don’t know if there is a thread like this already somewhere but I did look and didn’t find any. I have role-played in other mediums before (like table top; play-by-post) etc, but the whole “virtual world” is really new. I admit it. Even if I have done little rp’s for over the past year in wow with other people we’ve really done it based how we’d do it in a standard table-top/play by post run by a storyteller.

Over the past week some drama has been on going over issues of “god moding” / auto attacking etc and mixing ic and ooc. I’ve checked with some “rp guides to wow” and most of them seem to parallel what I’m use to in other rpg systems.  So this is what I’ve come up with (I added it in the comments to avoid an overly large post here) as to some common guidelines people should follow when rp’ing…

Did I miss anything? Cause I’m clueless as to why an ongoing issue is still an issue days later (I mean I was doing a naxx raid yesterday trying to heal boss fights while receiving whispers from the chick in question, her “friends”, and so on, on top of getting yelled at in the “ooc rp channel”.). That behavior being depicted by them is beyond annoying and is distracting from the “fun” factor of the game. I’ll explain the rp that started it and the related actions that happened after, in a follow up comments post. I would like to know if I’m in the wrong and/or ways to avoid such melodramatic drama in the future.

Security:	Public

Hey all, I figure I might as well join the ranks of everyone else who has already posted an introduction about themselves in the community.

I RP on Sisters of Elune though I have spent some time on some other rp servers. I have six blood elves that I rotate between playing and have their character biographies / short stories / journal entries etc all on http://dioti.livejournal.com/ .  

I pretty much have a little on going storyline/plot with some friends/family IRL that play on that server. We have been doing weekly “rp events” as well as a weekly run through an old world raid (if not more). The more, the merrier on those (so much just goes to the vendor, it makes me cry that such nifty looking gear isn’t being used!).

I’m generally interested in doing random rp and things that just happen from chance encounters from a visit to an AH or someone chatting while fishing anywhere. So if anyone is interested, I’d love to meet some more RP’ers besides just the ones I know from IRL.

P.S. any comments / suggestions for improvement on writing, events, rp lore, etc. are more than welcomed.

Hey everyone. I just joined and thought I'd throw up a character profile.

Dorina

Dor's my Blood Elf on Sentinels who I never level because I'm too busy RPing.

Recently my friend and Dorina's sister quit WoW, and a lot of my buddies went Alliance-side, so I'm rather lonely.

Feel free to track me down!
