Last night, Anna linked me a (now deleted) blog post wherein a guild was planning on encourage RP Griefing, “RP they found stupid.” On the surface, it appears that this “Bloggy Guild Event” was going to target ERP on Argent Dawn. edit: It’s been brought to our attention that this was not a guild sanctioned [...]

It was suggested to Tarquin that he needed to take some time off and regain his balance — though his interpretation is probably very different from what Alishe had in mind when she [...]
