[Goblin H-RP] <Flashbang Exports> Boomtastic!

We’ve had a recent pop in new Gobbos! I’m excited to get to know each and everyone of them and send a warm welcome aboard if the Forum is one of the places where ya’ll came from. Welcome to the Family.

Due to the traditionally high casualty level back at Flashbang HQ, we’re always hiring anyone ready to sign on to the Gob Life and Unpaid Overtime!

Welcome to all the new Gobbo monks rollin’ inta Flashbang!

With Gobs* now able ta be summoned straight outta the startin’ zones, we hadda grand time springin’ new Gobs inta Orgrimmar tonight!

If ya ready ta roll with the punches… an’ the kicks… an’ th’ Crouchin’ Tiger Hidden Moolah Gob life an’ ya need a home, keep us in mind! With our consistently high casualty rate, we’re ALWAYS hirin’ monks, mooks, makers, moggers, an’ more!

*and Worgen, but SHHH this ain’t about them :stuck_out_tongue:

(OOC: We’re a very chill and casual guild that takes pride in making folks feel welcome and acknowledges IRL comes first. There’s no pressure other than to be a Gob, be chill, and have fun!

  • We do casual PVE, some M+.

  • We do not have a raid group up and running at this time (though would like to restart one at some point), and are seeking a laid back PVP lead.

  • We started a new RP arc at New Year’s that is cross faction, with associated sister guilds on both sides for multiple participation options.

Reach out to learn more! Whether new or veteran, introvert or outgoing, all Gobs are welcome and we hope to see you soon!)

  • Brawlers cannot participate with Conquest gear. All gear must be up to current season blue gear, including Bloody Token gear. Conquest and PvP tier set gear are not allowed.

Howdy!

It’s been a minute since I’ve been in here - like many other folks, we’ve been taking a little down time! We’re still around though, catching up on some legacy content, having mech battles with the Gnomes (which we naturally won, once again asserting the superiority of Gob tech), and general out and abouting doing Gob stuff.

We’re HIRING, btw! Enterprising Gobbos are welcome to apply with FBE, and we’ve opened our non-Gob division Bangflash Imports (crossfaction!) for hire as well for folks that like the Gob life but have the misfortune of not actually being a Goblin.

In other news, we’re still running Gobbodome each month! This month we’re trying something different to collect some more data that will guide future tweaks to our signature event! Here are the updated rules:

**GOBBODOME: TWO WILL ENTER, ONE WILL LEAVE!!! **
Gadgetzan cage, Tanaris - 1st Wednesday of each month 8-10pm RT

This is a Neutral PVP DUEL event; RPers are heavily encouraged to come spectate, heckle, and place bets!

Fighters may sign up at the door (please arrive early to get a spot) or in advance (DM Kíwi).

To keep the fights moving, fighters are requested to be DPS specs only. Tank/heals exhibitions welcome after the match!

Here’s ya fine print:

  • Any level character can participate.
  • Potions,Toys, Elixirs, and Food buffs are allowed.
  • Leaving the ring voluntarily Disqualifies you from the match. Leaving the ring involuntarily (loss of control effects) does not.
  • IC taunting is allowed. OOC taunting is not. Any acts of taunting and aggression OOC’ly will be subject to Disqualification or banishment.

There are TWO brackets:

  • Open bracket = anything goes, gear is not a full Conquest/Tier set. No restrictions to gems.
  • Honor bracket = full Conquest/Tier gear with gems only for neck piece.

Prizes for each bracket-
1st Place: 20K gold
2nd Place: 10K gold
3rd Place: 5K gold
(Note that prizes will be adjusted in the event of small brackets. More combatants = larger prizes!)

Sounds like chump change, right? BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE. Ya gonna pocket it, or ya gonna feed the pot? YOU DECIDE!

Any winner can choose to forgo their prize to be added to the pot. Once the pot reaches a certain point, a special Pot Brawl will commence in place of that month’s Gobbodome. The Pot will pay out divided amongst the winners. Pot Brawl payout cannot be put back into a new Pot.

See ya round, and hope to see you either this Wednesday or in the stack of new hire paperwork sitting on my desk!

Howdy Gobbos, Gobbettes, Gob-Friends, and the Gob-Curious!

I hope y’all are doing well!

I’m just popping by to let folks know that between the Trading Post rewarding you for levelling and the extended Time Walking that’s going on right now, now is the PERFECT time to roll a new Gob and check out the Gob Life because you’ll be all levelled up quick-quick!

We’re actively looking for new Gobbos to help us revitalize and perk up during the slump so that we can hit the ground running when things pick up again!

  • We’re a laid back guild that is casual and learner- friendly. We are focusing on building our community - We welcome all Gobs whether you enjoy organized activities or just want to pick flowers in some far corner of Azeroth.

  • We do a little of everything - we offer RP, PVE, and some PVP, and hope to offer raid again if/when we have enough people on board.

  • Gobs pushing higher level in these things are very welcome, though a chill attitude towards more casual players is a must.

  • We have a sister guild for Non-Gobs, though we hope you’ll go short and green with us!

  • We value making people feel welcome, feel that IRL and self-care come first, and leave drama at the door.

If all of this sounds good, it’s a great time to give the Gob Life a shot! Check us out in Guild Finder or flag down any of our Gobs running around! We hope to see you soon!

The room falls quiet, at least by goblin standards, as Narixa Fusepop walks onto the podium. She clears her throat, quickly pulls a Flashbang Exports clipboard out from behind her back and proceeds to drop it. She tries to kick it off to the side before anyone notices.

Nari: Heya gobbos, Narixa here!

The room stays quiet, but some hands pop out to wave at her.

Nari: Shame you gobs missed last week’s party, because Boss gave me an EXPLOSIVE idea! One that will ATTRACT all the PROFIT!

There is a clear split between the audience, some rolling their eyes, some cheering already.

Nari: So now that we got all the buzzwords outta the way, time for some magnets!

Narixa hops off the stage to grab a heavy bag. She pulls what is clearly a bomb out of said bag, with a grin.

Nari: I know what you’re about to say: Nari, that’s a bomb. Did you honestly expect me NOT to include a bomb??

She yanks the fuse, which immediately lights up at the wrong end, prompting her to drop it. Her voice is filled with excitement as she starts to explain.

Nari: But this one does… Shrapneltising! You know all those guys wearing armor, right? These little Flashbang Exports badges will stick right to them!

Nari rubs her hands together with a grin, while continuing her presentation in a somewhat menacing tone as her bomb gets closer to going off.

Nari: Every guard… Every adventurer… Everything is free ad space!

The bomb explodes, showering everyone with little badges. Her voice goes from menacing, back to excited.

Nari: Bomb-launched advertising magnet badges! Magn-ads!

The inventor’s eyes water up, she starts shaking, not even noticing that her hair caught fire

Nari: It… Is… BEAUTIFUL!!!

((If you are reading this, you now have a badge stuck on you. It looks like this → [FBE]. Feel free to drop a little badge in your posts here and there! You can find us on Moon Guard, search for Flashbang, look for Her Senior Head Executive Bigbossness, Kiwi! For any non-gobbos listening, Bangflash Imports is also hiring, because who says a Tauren can’t blow stuff up?"))

Looks around for something to throw at Narixa then realizes there are no chairs. After a long sigh, he snorts and walks off.
