Tucked away behind the bar counters of the local SnR Taverns is a board on which are posted various notices and papers. Upon them you can find some of the latest rumors and gossip floating around towns and inns throughout the world and beyond. While some of the notices seem more timely than others, the papering of the years has made these boards a local curiosity and a place to gather. Those who have been to the taverns tell of two of the tavernkeepers who tend to be the collectors and purveyors of gossip, odd jobs, local wisdom, and odd rumors. Cerril Silverleaf keeps the conversation lively over in Alliance territories and Vinceer Silverthorne is known to keep a secret or two hidden under his hat in the realms of the Horde. If you ever get a chance to talk to either of them, you might well find it worth your while.
To the left of these boards is a plaque centered squarely and prominently for all the tavernsâ patrons to see.

OOC:
What Is this?
This is our attempt at adding some fun and interesting role-play to the Moon Guard community. Each week, starting around the weekend or Mondays, Cerril or Vinceer (or maybe both!) will be posting up some of the latest news or gossip heard around town. In order to do this, weâve created a gmail account where you can send your latest news, rumors, or gossip. Weâll be accepting these e-mails up until Fridays for the following week and will post sometime that weekend or Monday.
For instance, for the week beginning Monday, March 15th, weâll be looking at e-mails up until this Friday, March 12th. So if you have a timely announcement, be sure to get it in the week beforehand!
Likewise, during our server events, either Cerril or Vinceer will be around to chat with you and collect some of the local gossip, as well.
What Are Those Sponsor Plaques?
For anyone who donates items for our tavern events, we wanted to offer a way to thank them for having done so. These plaques are a reflection of those who are helping to create our events for the community!
So what do we accept? Anything from food to drinks to items to oddities. The oddities and items weâll raffle off on a future date, and the food and drink items weâll use to supply our specialty dishes for the nights when weâre staffing the tavern.
But where do I send stuff?
Weâve got two lovely characters to whom you can send your donations. For the Alliance side of our tavern, we have Gnymsy the Gnumbers Gnome (in-game: Gnymsy.) And for our Horde tavern, Jelirra our Hoarding Vulpera (in-game: Jelirra) will be happy to receive your items. When sending your items, please include in the message the name you want posted to our plaques. If the name is offensive or fails to abide by the RP Server Naming Guidelines, we reserve the right not to include it.
How Can I Get My Stuff Posted in Behind the Bar (BtB):
Weâd prefer that you not make postings to this thread with your own rumors and gossip, but ask that you instead use our gmail address. Anyone is welcome to post up For Sale, Business, Event, or Looking For posts here as they like.
Mostly, this post is meant to help provide a central place to look up people to talk to for current on-going stories, or for fun tidbits about your favorite (or not so favorite) Moon Guardians. What this isnât a place for is slandering other players, guilds, or being demeaning and outright hateful to your fellow gamers. We reserve the right to not post information from your e-mails that we believe would harm the community or negatively effect it in some way. That said, weâre happy to offer this space for people who want to create a server-wide sense of story and community.
If this hasnât completely scared you off, and if youâre still interested in being featured in a weekly posting by a fellow community member, then please feel free to send us an e-mail at the following address:
behindthebar13 @ gmail.com (please remove the spaces)
In your e-mail, please include the following:
- Horde, Alliance, or Neutral
- IC name of person offering the gossip or rumor.
- Whether the person or group being gossiped or rumored about has been contacted about this e-mail. (If they have, have they consented to it?)
- The Rumor or Gossip itself.
- An IC contact for people to go to for more information regarding said information.
You can also use this e-mail to offer tidbits about server-wide stories and events whose details might have gotten missed in all the larger eventsâor to leave clues for your guild members (and others) to find and/or play off of. Itâs also a great way to introduce a story to the server if youâre interested in creating one outside of a guild.
Questions, Concerns, Other Thoughts?
To reach us, you can leave an e-mail at our above gmail account, or you can poke Cerril/Vinceer with an in-game mail or pester him via his battletag: Cyril#1635 Or he might even respond if you poke him on Discord: Cerril#7028
