Heretic: A Gaming Community with Soul!
Welcome to the Heretic website v. 8.0!


News of the Heretic World! - SWTOR is here!

As has been the case over the long and storied history of our little group, change is in the air. Despite our claim to be "drama free", the Happy Fuzzy Bunnies of Evil have managed to sew some discontent in our (mostly) happy family. Although the resolution was painful and left a bit of a sour aftertaste in many of our mouths (mine was kind of like Jagermeister..yuk!), it seems we are mostly settled in and heading towards our own personal gaming Nirvana. SWTOR is near and I think most of the crew will be headed there. RIFT and even WoW are still part of the collective consciousness and I personally can't wait for both BF3 and Planetside 2! Yum!

Despite all the other changes, the basic message stays the same: We consider ourselves a mature, yet fun loving guild that is focused on all areas of the game, RvR and PvE, all while meeting our primary goal of having fun. We pride ourselves on trying to be drama free, majority of us being adults with real lives. We encourage everyone to group up, use Vent, and strengthen the guild. As we progress, folks get the opportunity to experience end game content as well as a chance to grab the leet lootz everyone wants.

While we encourage everyone to level up, alts are definitely a welcomed mix to the guild. We do not require a certain amount of attendance at guild events. Although we encourage our members to attend events when we schedule them, we understand that people have other commitments than the game. We try to organize events that the membership wants to see and will fluctuate from being heavily RvR focused to heavily PVE focused depending on what's going on in the game and the general mood of the members.

No matter what you are playing, stop by vent and say hi, unless your name is Dar.

Yep, it's right there at the bottom of the main page--and it's almost never been used.

I'm bringing this up because there have been a few posts where members have been trying to coordinate a grouping (e.g. flashpoint, PvP, heroic, etc.) and are asking who can do what, when.

The calendar allows us to post a specific event on a specific day and time and allows others to sign-up for it--by player or by the character!!

You can also add a comment to provide information or coordinate which 'toons would be best for the event, etc.

The calendar is accessible to all members--not just officers; anyone can post an event.

Guideline:
  • Because you can register for an event by 'toon, it's important that you keep your character's profile updated in the Roster--especially their spec.
  • Specify which type of event it is so we know how many slots are avaialble.
  • If an event is Hard Mode, make sure to specify so ineligible players don't sign up.
  • When posting an event, the posting form uses a military time format but will be posted in standard.
  • Because this is a West Coast server, we should assume all times are PST

Using the calendar is a much, much better system than the cat-herding method we are currently employing. Just think, as we group more we'll become more familiar with our newer members; strike up friendships and be able to make fun of their moms too.


Just an idea.

P.S. I will post an example FP for the 25th just to give you an idea how it works.
