Hey all!

With the earth shaking a lot and the spirits being difficult and elements attacking innocent villagers, I realised that our guild chat is also a spirit/shaman/mysterious thing.

Is there anythin we can do with this in cataclysm? I myself was thinking that since it's a spirit thing, it could start breaking up in the upcoming weeks to cataclysm, reaching a dead point in the week or so before.

Sure, it'll make communication so much more difficult, but it'll be a challenge for all of us and I think it'll be a fun immersion of the upcoming expansion and the ongoing changes so far.

Also, people can use it to work on a solution together. Result: MUCH RP!

Sounds pretty good to me, actually. With Cataclysm, a lot of orcs around the world might be scattered around the shattering world. The chaos would be ever so greater if they wouldn't be able to communicate for unknown reasons. I say go for it!

Been thinking some more, and I've sort of constructed a timeline or sorts.

October 25th until October 31st:
Every now, parts of words seem to vanish, making it sound like words get cut-out here and there. Separate letters vanish rather often. Letters can vanish every other sentence, words only rarely vanish entirely.


November 1st until November 7th:
Complete words get cut out now, people aren't able to finish sentances or they lack words here and there. Light interferance. Letters still get cut out here and there, but clarification is still possible.


November 8th until November 14th:
Sentances break up often, though a second try should be able to fill in further details to clear communication up. Long conversations will give minor headaches.

November 15th until November 21st:
Severe breaking up of sentances, key words faltering. No ability to repeat communication as too much tries will result into IC headaches.

November 22nd until November 28th:
Single vague words that are very quiet. Users will experience chaos in their heads and migraine-like effects when speaking to it.

November 29th  until Cataclysm release:
Complete gchat inactivity.

It's just an idea and the things work for both speakers and listeners. Feel free to do things your own way, and alter things where you find them most rewarding for the RP that goes on.

So yeah, just an idea. If we're going to do this, might as well put it in GMOTD or guild calendar as well.

I think this is a great idea! I was wondering about the timeline a little. I think that the shattering of the world, so to speak, will happen before the hit of cataclysm. I am not sure when, but it should be like the pre-events for wotlk? In that case, we should keep our eyes open for patch dates and perhaps adjust the timeline accordingly. [
Spoiler for Hiden:
] Like if DW crashes everything a week before the release of the expansion, we loose all communication a few days before that or something.

Do I .. make sense?

This would  be even more awesome if, when the Cataclysm hits, we set up some kind of search party across the changed regions in search for the scattered orcs (and still lacking good communication).

A. We'd get to see the new zones
B. We can role-play while doing it!

Orcs are an alien race hailing from a planet which was disintegrated by dark magic, and like most aliens they are widely disliked by the indigenous population for taking their low-wage jobs, sleeping with their women and trying to take over the planet for an otherworldly master.

Morgy, you make complete and utter sense!
Gnash, I want to have your babies.

So.... for those who never read forums, is it a good idea for a high ranking orc to either GMOTD (or GMOTW (week)) this or put it on the calendar? I'd so love to do something with this Cheesy

Gnash is getting special attention from Koz?! *jaelous face*


But searching parties is a good idea! But consider this, how many will be lost and have to be searched for? And who will be lost?
