Damn he is a good leader! It would be nice to know the times the day players play as i know Lamb ie Dusty, Lambofgod_kl ie Justin and Joker ie "i slash at work and get away with it" play during the day and can pick up some of of our other members. i am friends with Dusty in real life and he keeps getting upset that he cant find a group as he works the mid shift on PST...IE 4-12pm pst.
Nice to lvl with Duke and Joker tonight and our friends from the Kirby guild. There are some gg slashers in that guild and for the new people feel free to branch out and try to join their runs. Someone more knowledgeable than me will post their thread. Oh wait i found it:
http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=45230197&f=42&o=350they have many day players like Stoner...who imo needs to get a damn job! (j/k stoner) I think it would be ok with Jesse and Nev if you looked for games during the day or anytime for that matter in their chat. they are an active posting guild so post up your toons and lvl with them if you can.
I am very happy with the direction that AB is headed and i like to think of our guild as the "little train that could". With that being said i mean no disrepect to Ancient Blood or what Duke has created here with his guild as i feel it is OUR GUILD.
We have come a long way in a short time IMO and some of the big dog guilds are starting to notice us...ie we have showed up on their radar as a up and coming guild.
I will say this as my #1 recommendation that all AB members try to branch out to other LS guilds and make alliances with other guilds...i have tried to do that and have met some great slashers. i will not mention any names or guilds as i am sure i would miss someone or some guild and end up offending someone which i would never want to do.
Duke started this guild and knows more people than i will ever know but I try to do my part to promote the slashing part of the guild. Please let me know how I can help our new members but for the record fg requests will be rejected until i win the lottery. I wish AB and all our friends a happy day slashing and may u find an item with 100+ee.

A simple basic rule is when game is full, game is full. Even to guildys. Unless it is stated at the start of the run that you plan on picking up someone else and that someone will have to leave at that time. I have told more than 1 guildy that a run was full.. Sry..... And I have been told more than once the same. It's nothing personal.
Bm is when you are in a run with someone and kick them ( or w/e) just so a new person can join. This rule can be "overlooked" under certain circumstances. If someone is just leecching. Or if they randomly go afk for periods of time and dont say anything. If someone is doing crappy damage and not healing or tanking. When I say crappy, I mean really crappy. Like 200 damage at lvl 55. The basic rule for "overlooking" the basic rule, is you can kick or ask someone to leave if they are hurting the run more than helping.
I totaly hate people that cant/dont keep a run together. Ive been in runs before and the driver would take whoever joined and engage. No matter who was in run before. When I asked they would be like w/e....
Here's a tip: If you see a guardian w/ a heavy weapon, start trolling their profile. Odds are very good that they have no clue what the hell they are doing. In most cases the wep has no ee/hm or int for healing purposes. The majority of the time they use max life items. ( No offense to anyone here with a guardian like that) That person should be kicked immediately to save stress. 99% of the ones I have seen dont have any idea what a guardian is supposed to do. Which is guard. Tank and heal. That would be why the only things they can use are heavy armors and heal charms. Make sense? When I see one come into a game and go straight to the back I feel like strangling someone. No damage, not tanking or healing. Pretty much useless. If you ask in our gc thread they will tell you how I feel about them.
Ive never had any trouble with anyone from AB. All gm slashers as far as I can tell. Like I said before, there are some good hard slashers here. A small guild taking big steps.
* If anyone here has a guardian like that I apologize if I offended you. Please dont take it personaly. With the right gear a guardian is a vey valauble player. Its the only char that can tank, heal and do damage. Well better than any of the others. My mage at lvl 55 with a heal/damage combo does about 700-900 damage and about the same with heals. ( ee wep/str robe/hm charm and heal charm) But cant tank. A good guardian can do all of that.
** Yes I understand that not everyone has fg to spend on gear. Its the ones that dont care that really get to me. That goes for all classes.
*** Another tip: If someone isnt ina guild: Troll them. You most likely dont want them ina run with you. Most of these peple just play the game randomly for something to do.
Good luck to everyone and happy slashing.

I really hope nobody here is mad at me now.....
no offense to anyone but guildies / alliance guildies / friends / randoms is the order of priority in my catas if a good friend msgs me or a guildie or alliance guildie to cata i make room if there is someone i dont know. ( unless they have been with me for a nicwe chunk of the climb.) i find that too not be bm at all my guild consists of alot of close friends and is like a family and i would not refuse them as that in my eyes is bm.
and as for people who are nooby / dont have the greatest gear as long as they try to make an effort and don't slack i will carry them along as everyone starts somewhere i started weith nothing and have made it very far.
kicking those people because they dont have the greatest gear i find very bm ( unless they are low actions / leeching)
thats just my opinion tho
