Unleash Your Inner Hordeling

by Alphaville Herald on 08/12/05 at 12:14 pm

If you’ve grown tired of the burdens that accompany membership in that most august group of Second Life residents, the Feted Inner Core, now there’s a solution. Just VW-hop on over to World of Warcraft and join the Feted Inner Horde, a new guild on WoW’s Lightninghoof server composed entirely of Second Life residents, complete with a cool-looking custom guild tabard and a membership already numbering in the low dozens.

Though the FIH has yet to gain complete control over the Lightninghoof server, it seems things are moving fast, with SL residents ReallyRick Metropolitan (Huna, in WoW), Cristiano Midnight (Pequeno), Psyra Extraordinaire (Psyra) and RacerX Gullwing (RacerX), among others too numerous to mention (sorry), already working their virtual magic. While Philip Linden has yet to show up on the FIH membership list, it’s clearly only a matter of time before the VW wunderkind is seduced by the Tauren toons of Azeroth.

Realm domination may still be some ways away, as it seems the FIH Web page is still under construction, so join now to get a front-row seat as the newest uberguild sets out to strike down the forces of light. No word yet on whether a rival Alliance guild has been formed to combat the FIH on Lightninghoof, which is a role-playing player-vs.-player server where open combat between factions is allowed in most zones. So for now, it’s For the (inner) Horde!

    Soon a Prokolotyte guild will be established on that server and then mayhem will ensue.

    The Lightbringers, perhaps?

    Hey Hereld!

    Thanks for the story on our little Guild. I never could have imagined that posting a little thread in the SL off-topic forum about me trying out WoW last week would blow up into what it has become.

    The sense of teamwork and camaraderie has been a real refreshing change. Everyone goes out of their way to share items and help each other out. Last night a group of us spent 5 hours raiding a dungeon only to fail at the very end. However, we still stayed around and made sure each person was able to finish other quests.

    Using Teamspeak has been a blast and I’ve made a whole new group of SL friends. WoW has certainly provided a wonderful escape from the daily grind of SL.

    Glad you liked my snapshot! :D

    *Eyes Bug Out*. Gosh, I had no idea my original invented term would spread to other grids. Jebus. Yes, I can see the Lightsavers Partisan Revolutionary Movement has to get WoW cranked up. I just need to wait until my kids are available to skill-grind over the holidays.

    If I didn’t existe, you’d have to invent me, I guess, you’d have no other reason to come together, eh?

    The idea of needing another game to wind down from the stress of Second Life is so hilarious I just can’t stop laughing. Yes, I can just see all the advertising now. “Tied down with a mortgage? Working a dead-end job as a land baron, parceling land for ungrateful customers who hate you? Trying to get out of a deadend relationship but your alts all used up? Time for a Third Life! Come to WoW!”

    And so true – we could each write our own tailor-made version, lol..

    Actually, Prokofy, though you may not believe it, the FIH has nothing to do with you except that we thought the name was funny. We aren’t doing this because of you, we’re doing it to have a little fun in a game.
    If you didn’t exist, we’d still be doing this, but with a different name… oh, and in a better world in SL and RL as well. You aren’t so important that your absence would make that much of a dent.

    Um, it doesn’t have to have anything to do with me per se. It is a term I invented and gave meaning too. If it wasn’t so important to you to feel feted, you wouldn’t use the term, even as a spoof : ) And uh, it’s not me who makes the world a worse place, it’s FICs in SL and RL.

    Oh you’re right….people are joining because of the name and this supposed “status” that goes along with it. Give me a freakin break.
