Guild Rivalry - King of the Rubbish Dump

TDC was a quite volatile guild. I remember the first time the guild leader, Plaap, freaked out and left the guild. I was completely baffled. That was until one of the old members told me this was happening all the time, and was nothing to worry about.

In Thousand Souls things weren't all perfect either. Leffe had managed to grab a spot as a core tank, but even while they ran two Karazhan raids most weeks, both Caninen and Dingus were completely locked out of raiding. Caninen didn't bother that much, but Dingus desperately wanted to start raiding. So he left Thousand Souls and joined the third of the famous raiding guilds, Aftermath. He raided a few times with them, then went on a vacation for a week. When he returned home, some major drama had caused the entire guild to disband. Many of the Aftermath members, a guild that was known for their great tanks, had joined Thousand Souls. Dingus too, asked to rejoin Thousand Souls, but being looked upon as a traitor for leaving them, he wasn't allowed back. As you will soon learn, this would haunt him for a very, very long time.

After spending some time in limbo, Dingus applied for TDC, and I vouched for him, so he got in despite us already being pretty stacked on Rogues. With Aftermath being out of the picture, and Diesel transferring soon thereafter, the race was on between TDC and Thousand Souls. At least on the Horde Side. If I remember correctly, Random Violence was still racking up server firsts on the Alliance side. The competition for Horde firsts in Karazhan – actually Horde second since Diesel had already cleared it a long time ago – was fierce, and I think for the most part we got the better of it, but the dispute was definitely not settled. Thousand Souls killed Hydross the Unstable in Serpentshrine Cavern, while we killed High King Maulgar in Gruul’s Lair. And so the race went on. With half of us in Thousand Souls, the other half in TDC.
