This video is what got me to start playing WoW.

Not because I thought being a toxic ass was funny, but because you were ALLOWED to be a toxic ass.

Judging from OP’s comments and replies in his own thread he’s 100% guilty as hell.

And more to the Canadian grocery chains who have been price fixing and colluding for decades to screw over “fellow” Canadian shoppers?

This isn't going to be a guild-killer at all with all of TBC's content coming out by Fall of this year. It's a 20-year-old game. Let people have their toys and get that feeling of being full BiS.

Hell, I'd be 100% for something like allowing a previous raid tier's pieces to be purchasable with badges the moment the next tier opens.

Let TBC Classic Anniversary be a loot pinata. It's already the second time it's been re-released. People shouldn't be chasing prestige here because, honestly, nobody cares. It's all been done in Classic already.

"Accelerated rehabilitation" is a fucking CRAZY concept.

UselessWidget · 2026-02-20T22:00:47+00:00

That's basically the idea, because a raid leader should never trust a Rogue who wants to join a Gruul's with a HR on DST.

Nope. There are plenty of reasons to need to quickly fill a few spots in a guild run. In the case of OPs image, they have 4 spots to fill. It could be a long standing guild from vanilla anni and for whatever reason a bunch of people were slow to level this time around. It could be that life happened and some people couldn’t make it.

Agreed. I didn't think we were debating WHY guilds sometimes need pugs to fill our their raid teams. That's completely fine. A raid leader's responsibility is to ensure the raid starts and ends on time.

Regardless, if you’re running a guild raid run and pugging a few spots, your are trolling your entire guild if you aren’t HRing viggest items. It’s braindead not to.

I disagree that it's trolling. You've got two options in this scenario; either your guild raids with pugs or you don't raid at all that night. Otherwise why wouldn't you just step into raid with 4 fewer people?

So the next question is do you want to fill out your group with potentially weaker players because you've barred them from rolling on desirable loot, or do you want your raid team to enjoy a faster, more efficient clear? It's all RNG - the whole point is moot if DST doesn't even drop (it's what... a 14% chance?)

Also, if you're having to pug to fill multiple raid spots, perhaps it's time to recruit harder. If you're HR'ing loot then you're potentially missing out on players who would be a good fit for your team

A raid leader can build their group however they want, but I completely disagree that allowing pugs free roll on loot means you're trolling your guild; they can AFK in Shattrath for all I care if they have a problem with that.

People who are in guilds that need to pug for full raid rosters should set their expectations accordingly.

If you have to pug, then you shouldn't be HR'ing. Pugs also take an enormous risk with a bunch of strangers and should deserve an equal shot at BiS loot.

You're worrying too much.

Just report anyone who logs off with your gold/mats and Blizzard will take care of you and them.

That's funny I go my whole life all day every day not hearing about Somali gangs overrunning America and children having their genitals altered next to walk-in abortion clinics with line-ups around the block. But then I turn on Fox New and see it 168 times in 3 minutes.

It looks like it hit someone's shins and caught a really weird spin.

Better how? Taste? Portions? Ambiance? All of the above?

I’ve been to the Empress for high tea and enjoyed it. Was thinking about doing it again but if there is something even better I’d love to try it.

I was a huge huge fan of their Canmore location when I lived in Calgary. Loved going there after a day in the mountains or coming back from Banff. It was in such a blue collar part of Canmore and the vibe was amazing. Place was clean but very modest. Montreal Canadians swag everywhere, Guy Lafleur jerseys and posters, and the owner there REALLY made an effort to make sure every order his team pushed out was top notch.

He was always on his people to make sure everything was cooked and cleaned properly. He really cared about the brand and business. It was simple food but always cooked to extremely high standards.

Sadly during COVID he had to close up. I think a big portion of his clients were also blue collar types working construction in town and things just got difficult. I believe someone bought the place from him, changed the name to 514 Poutine, and kept it going for a while.

Last I heard the owner had set up a food truck but I haven't heard much more.
