I was a member of the Raging Daisies as well. I am hoping some of us can get back together for Classic. My main was Shifthappens, a Night Elf Druid, and the character I’m posting from is still my original alt mage from Vanilla/BC.

The main guys I used to play with were Aloe, Movingtarget, Derelict, Platanum and his wife who I think was named Dotty, Purplelotus/Poisonivy (same guy, he was a chef in real life, I remember that. Super cool dude)

Let me know if you hear from anyone, or if you want to get a guild started in Classic!

YOOOO shifthappens i remember you and god Platanum that takes me back and Movingtarget the mage hit me up in disc i know where a few people are and can send you our or there way

I was Daertek (Resto Druid on Horde), Had a bunch of friends in Highwind on Alliance though. Looking to reconnect with some of those dudes. CaseyRides#1251 on Battlenet and CaseyRides#3726 on discord.

This is sick, I’m Cire’s step brother. I used to watch you guys raiding in awe from over Cire’s shoulder. You guys are what got me to play vanilla wow and stick with it all these years. I remember the names Maika and Likwid too, guild leaders right?

BALNAZZAR

Wow

I was not active on Baln until 2008. Would like to think I was a legend there by the time it died to server mergers. My vanilla days were spent as a low effort loner, and this server was definitely my first WoW home even if I didn’t switch over until WotLK launch.

I started out as a charter-signing member of Slayers of the Night. While they never accomplished squat in raiding or pvp, they ended up becoming the largest Alliance guild on the server for its final years.

I switched to Karmic Retribution in late Naxx and got my feet wet as a fill-in raider and world pvper. Didn’t really know what I was doing or leave much of a mark there, but I hung around through ICC.

Decided to give raiding a proper go at Cata launch and accepted a try-out with The Knights of Nijel. Stuck with them through Ragnaros and ended up leading a lot of the raids by the end of it. The server was shrinking fast and I had the gear and knew what I was doing, managed to get into more competitive guilds from there. Cleared normal DS with Status Quo and ultimately ended up burying the stand-alone server with Fusiøn. Never got to raid with Grip and Sip, sadly.

Not remarkable really, but I was invested in the server in a lot of other ways. I loved you guys and loved competing against the horde as a distant shot underdog faction when we had at best 100 active players left.

I was almost certainly the highest geared Alliance hunter on the server at the end of Cata.

I built up the resources to monopolize the dwindling auction house and became the main supplier of end-game needs for the last year or two of Balnazzar’s existence, got to know a lot of guild leaders in the process of cutting deals.

I passed Fiedler by 5 achievement points to become the #1 highest point player on the server hours before Cataclysm ended, knocking down a sea of Skunkworks horde.

I helped organize a fake city raid on alts in Orgrimmar that saw half of the online level 85s on the server teleported to the bottom of the Stormwind crypts to be butchered by the Alliance in waiting.

I crashed a Skunkworks-hosted Darkmoon Faire loot competition for a free Lifebinder’s Handmaiden with 40 ungeared scrubs, resulting in Aydin actually awarding the prize to the Alliance.

I lead cross-server Isle of Conquest Bloodthirsty farming and put our little home on the national map. This escalated with the launch of cross-server grouping to Balnazzar folk leading some of the top Alliance raiding guilds in North America through Battlemaster grinds and legacy content runs for difficult achievements.

I participated in what was, to the best of my knowledge, the final pure Balnazzar Alliance raiding group to ever complete progression content–a haggard team of holdouts from Fusiøn, League of Justice, and Outcasts in early MoP when Baln was so dead it took a whole faction to band together to kill a boss.

I love you guys.

Probably in an unhealthy Uncle Rico way.

glgl in Classic. I just resubscribed after 3 years for it.

Still one of my biggest regrets! I am much better with my dkp management now!

Oh baby, it’s Thesickone.

Night Elf Rogue. BrewCity originally.

I’ll be back, as much as life will allow me to be. Got quite a few others from vanilla joining back. Signed up on Whitemane right now. We’re open to wherever the action is.

All these names bring back a lot of memories. That was definitely some good times.

As sickone said a few of us from Brew City including Mazer, Blatent, and maybe a couple others are coming back for classic. We’ll also be bringing several more that we met from Doesn’t Like You in TBC and WotLK.

Hope to see you guys out there.

lol no he wasn’t he tired posting on facebook that he was sorry to say but you wasn’t… you don’t even have any achievements from vanilla / bc and they put achievements into wotlk. so anything you did back in classic / bc became added into your aciev book in wotlk… which means if u had lore master back then it would show in your achievements that you had it back in say 2006/7ish area… when you only got the achievement last year…

Aaaaay, it’s Rizta. (We are already friends I’m purdy sure, but… internet… I see you)
