So long Disciples, and thanks for all the fish.


It's time guys.  The Disciples of Thrall made it almost 2 years as a guild, but our time has drawn to a close.  Very soon I will be disbanding the guild, and for good reasons.  "WHAT?  WTF! WHY DISBAND?!?"  I can understand why you might take issue with this decision, but I have thought it out and it is the only option.


  • Guild membership has dwindled, and during hiatus more members left and we were unable to bring new ones to the forefront.
  • I could pass leadership on to someone else, but of those I trust to lead the guild no one has wanted the responsibility (and I can't blame them for that).
  • I don't want to see our guild languish in the way I've seen other guilds languish.  It's depressing, and it strikes a contrast to why we made the guild in the first place, to play and enjoy the game as a close knit group.
Have you ever had to break up with someone?  Sometimes its not easy.  You think, "Ive been at this with him/her for years, and now all that time is wasted."  The reality is that even though you aren't going to stay with that person you got a lot of life experience and memories along the way, and when you know it's time, it's time.  Here is your DoT end of days faq:

Q.) What about the guild bank?
A.) Over the next few days I will be liquidating guild assets into gold as much as possible.  Those that have a claim to that gold and have contributed need only send me an email, but with people logging on so sparatically  there is no way for me to be diplomatic about it.

Q.)  Where the fuck are you going?  Where am I supposed to go?
A.)  In the short term I don't know.  I may server hop a bit, but I honestly don't have alot of interest in playing WoW at the moment.  I will certainly give SWTOR a shot when it comes out, and would love to join a guild with you guys (Sith side of course) but my days of guild leadership are behind me.  Nothing saying I won't come back to wow if I find it calling me, or if the next xpac is the shit.  But, you never know.

Q.)  What about the vent server?
A.)  I will probably maintain the vent server until the end of the year, and I will post a paypal link for anyone that would like to contribute to it continuing.  Its pretty cheap, like 45 bucks a year or something like that.

Final thoughts from Thall's Hand,

Im going to miss all of you guys, Sezmra, Marty, Darkie-poo, Rumblerz, Jimbo, Glenda, Cimmers, Bhoardy-Bhoard, Moo, Graal,  and yes even Kyle  (Please don;t be upset if I forgot anyone, theres too fucking many of you.  You guys made it worth it, and it's with you in mind that I end it.  Stay in touch, stay sweet, and Lok'Tar!


Much Love,

Kay
