WoW Update - Classic and raids

Congratulations to everyone this week for getting to 6/9M and getting to 47% on mekkatorque. I have a lot of confidence we will get 7 next week if we can sort out the right tanking setup.

As far as the raid force is concerned, we are definitely hitting a stride at the moment and can see the best atmosphere, attitude and progression we've seen for a while so very positive going into 8.2 (hopefully in only 2 weeks).

8.2 Will give us a grace period of a couple of weeks before the new raids come out where we will still be raiding but with the benefit of the 8.2 trinkets et al. This I hope will tick us over the edge to 9/9 if we aren't there already which will still give us cutting edge.

Moving on to classic. We will have an official presence for Classic release on alliance with a PvE focus (server to be determined). This will be welcoming of all of the people who want to come back for it or are currently playing with us in modern. Raids in classic are at the moment still being organised but will probably happen on an extra night(s) instead of cutting into our current nights on modern.

As far as discords are concerned I just talked to Laenii and we have now an official policy regarding discords for different activities. M+ evenings (monday, tuesday, thursday) are currently going to be held on the Zeus Discord. All raid activities (classic and modern) will be held on the TBH discord. All Classic chat and activities will also be held on the TBH discord. So it lines up like this.

Modern raids: TBH Discord
Modern Groups: Zeus Discord
Classic Everything: TBH Discord

The reason we have decided to keep the discords split is mainly so members coming back to the game wont have issues finding us again. However I've had some people questioning whether the community is dead outside raids. This setup is why you aren't seeing people on the TBH discord as much outside raids at the moment.

If anyone is interested in coming back to WoW or wants to chat about classic I'm always available on discord so just message me on @samsbase and no matter where I am I'll be able to get back to you.
