Cactaur Raid Group forming WED/SUN nights

[Mattiz]

** Edit ** We are looking 3 additional members - a healer and 2 DPS (one melee at least). I will shuffle around if necessary!

Hello, Akrista Inverse here!

After searching to join a raid group that fit my schedule, I found myself stuck between raiders wanting 3-5 nights a week and extremely casual options offering no concrete schedule.

As such I have decided to see about running my own group. My raid group will be structured and ran as follows:

1. I am looking for players who enjoy the game and want to push content but are not interested in being on the bleeding edge. Some nights we may help members of our FC, some nights we may not push current content the entire time. I'm not looking to create another source of stress for myself or the members of my group.

2. I tried having a 'casual' raid group with no set schedule and no roster in 2.X. It did not go well. While my approach to the game is focused on fun and enjoying the social aspect, I understand now that a raid group is raid group is a raid group. There's no need for being a tyrannical hard a** but you can't be too soft and loose either. We will be raiding 2 nights a week trying to create group chemistry and learn the fights. While my patience for wipes, frustrations and unavoidable problems will be at its peek, my tolerance for petty drama, biased complaints and generally being lazy and not putting forth effort will be zero.

3. My plan is to do the story raids and extreme primals in 3.X, pushing to savage Alexander and what lies beyond ONLY if we have an 8/8 desire to do so and the subsequent experience does not ruin our fun. Frustration and triumph is part of raiding but constant failure and anger leads to broken raid groups every time.

4. While you do not have to join our FC to be part of this group, we will always make an effort to help members of our FC when not raiding. I left my old company because I felt the core raiders were ignoring and brushing aside other FC mates. I will not allow this raid group to sew similar seeds. There's plenty of time and game for everyone to have fun

5. I'm in charge. I'll always be open to suggestions, constructive criticism, etc, but will not tolerate childish behavior and the slop that some people bring to this community. I nearly let such things ruin this game I enjoy so much before. I'm not going to be an a** hole but... if you want to join, just know - I'm in charge

Raid times will be Wed and Sun at 7pm CST. We will go 2 hours (9pm) leaving some room for more attempts if we're feeling it. The weeknight is open to change but Fri/Sat are out of the question for me.
