We are thrilled that you decided to join Stormsurge! Sorry about the two e-mails this week. Just more information that needed to go out than normal. I have to abridge some items so please check the stormsurgeguild.com website for more details. Guild News and Information: Guild Bank Renovations Completed – Below is the updated information about the guild bank! Access: Recruits – none Members – GB1 and GB2 Senior members and above – all banks GB1 – Player transfers only (exchanging items/money between other members or alts only) GB2 – Player donations – Lore and legend, collectibles, gear, etc GB3 – Tradeskill supplies and donations - World event harvests, advanced books, storage boxes and bags, display cabinets, etc. GB4 – Raid supplies - potions, resists jewelry, items needed for a specific zone, etc. Considerations: Space is limited in the bank, so if the item is easily obtainable by everyone, please sell it instead. Only take items you can use. Items that are older than 24 hours may be disposed of. If a recruit needs an item, please assist them if possible by checking with the donating member and retrieving their items for them. If there are problems, please bring the issue to an officer. The raffle has changed! You can now purchase raffle tickets by donating status to the guild! Simply put, 5,000 status will buy you 1 raffle ticket the same way 5 gold will buy 1 ticket. How does this work? Go to the guild hall door and click on it. There is a tab at the top that says Deposit. Click that tab and then make a deposit of status. It automatically includes the character name and the date so it is already logged. Please do not place money in there for raffle tickets since that money cannot be retrieved. Send money to Aliriela instead. To launch this new system, the pot for this week has been enlarged to 100 plat! In addition, if enough status is donated before the raffle, there is a chance that the pot will be doubled! Stormsurge Website Calendar We ask that members who are interested in attending events sign up on the calendar on the stormsurgeguild.com website. This just makes it easier to plan the different aspects of an event, such as advanced group set-up for raids, and makes the events easier to get started. To do this, just create an account, claim your character, and then sign up your character on the event. If you have trouble signing up for an event (such as characters not showing up) or the website has shut down the sign ups (which happens a few hours before the event), just leave a comment that you are interested in attending. An important note about the roster is that it is pulled from SOE and unfortunately that interaction doesn’t work. This is not a problem on our end that we can fix, but on the SOE end. SOE News: 12th Anniversary – SOE is celebrating the 12th Anniversary of EQ with a variety of events around Norrath. One of those events is double XP 3/25/11 – 3/27/11!

Jesters, thieves, bards and fans of mischief are invited to enjoy the festivities that surround Bristlebane Day! You never know what riddles, laughs and pranks are to be found during this time of year. Celebrators are present in every home city and the oddest of objects have been spotted in Antonica, The Commonlands, Darklight Wood, Timorous Deep, Greater Faydark and Frostfang Sea. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for special events, especially in the Enchanted Lands, occurring only on the Highest of Silly Days!

Guild News and Information: Why is my in-game e-mail always full?!?!? If you ever have people telling you that your mailbox is full, odds are you have been attacked by ghost e-mails. What are ghost e-mails? The source of these elusive creatures is still unknown. They enter a mailbox and remain unseen but take up precious space. However, a removal method has been discovered for these annoying pests. It’s called it T.A. 2500. The T.A. 2500 is short for Total Annihilation 2500. It is simple to use. Just clear out your e-mail box (both incoming and spam) of all e-mails and then type the following command /clear_mailbox That’s all you have to do. However, when using such a powerful weapon, it will be attack all e-mails both desired and ghost, so make sure you have read all of your e-mails first and if you want to save an e-mail for later, DO NOT USE T.A. 2500 until your inbox is empty. (LOL Ok. I have seen Ghostbusters far too many times. If you have any questions, just let me know) Help! I have questions/can’t kill a mob! EQ2 is a complex game and there are always new and old questions popping up. While the guild members are always fantastic about answering questions in guild chat and tells, there are occasions when they can’t for a variety of reasons (currently in nasty fight, don’t know the answer, are afk, etc). When that happens, you have other sources of information available to you. One of which is the Stormsurge website. We have several forums devoted to helping members (in addition to forums that are just for fun). So feel free to visit the website at any time, either when looking for help or just to say hi! www.stormsurgeguild.com Upcoming Events: Note: Any member of the guild can post an event on the calendar; however, they are responsible for the organization of that event.

Guild News and Information: I would like to congratulate and welcome the newest officers to Stormsurge!! From Takul : - Kobeoshi joins us over a year and a half ago and quickly established a reputation as an energetic, mature player with a ton of motivation. He displayed a ton of initiative by taking of Battlegrounds night and keeping it alive when it was faltering, and is a steadying influence on the guild. -Tiamay joined last summer, and although I rarely see her due to my late-night online schedule, every officer who does see her raves about her as well-rounded and knowledgeable in all aspects of the game, and very generous with her personal time to help others. When that description was given to me, I knew she would be a perfect fit...exactly what we want from an officer. -Verfolger also joined us last summer. If I remember correctly, we were on a crazy "Tak run" through Living Tombs and we stumbled upon the unguilded recent returnee to EQ... "Hey look, a free Dirge." Our initial excitement for a free Dirge was quickly replaced with wonder about how we had stumbled on someone who so perfectly fit into the "Surge-Way" of doing things.
