For those of you who don&#8217;t know what that is, it&#8217;s a Massively-<span>Multiplayer<\/span> Online <span>Roleplaying<\/span> Game, which means that when you log into the game (need to have an <span>internet<\/span> connection to play!) you&#8217;re playing with hundreds of other people from all over the world. You can interact with them, chat with them, help them, or fight with them. There are over 11 million people playing, so it&#8217;s a popular <span>pastime<\/span> \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>In the game you can group with different people to form a guild, a group of people who are pretty much available to you every time you log in. They can be helpful and provide a great way to learn the game and advance in the game (if it&#8217;s a good guild), or they can take advantage of you and make your online time pretty miserable (if it&#8217;s a not-so-good guild).<\/p><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">Our guild is named <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sanctuary.wowstead.com\/\">Sanctuary<\/a>, and I think of it as a casual\/social guild. We don&#8217;t do hardcore end game raiding (playing the most difficult parts of the game over and over again for better equipment and bragging rights), we don&#8217;t immerse ourselves into the story of the game by <span>roleplaying<\/span> (pretending you are your character and talking &#8220;in character&#8221; most of the time), and we don&#8217;t focus on <span>PvP<\/span> (Player vs. Player combat &#8211; trying to defeat other players in different ways). We focus on helping new members learn the game, holding in-game events for our members (some just for fun, some to try the harder content without requiring attendance or a certain level of gear), and giving our members time to play as they&#8217;d like.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div align=\"justify\">If any of you would like to try the game out, you can message me online (the <span>toon<\/span> I&#8217;m on the most is named <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowarmory.com\/character-sheet.xml?r=Terokkar&amp;n=Anarius\"><span>Anarius<\/span><\/a>) &#8211; and if you like it, you can join us on our adventures in <span>Azeroth<\/span>!<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">Blessings &amp; Peace,<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">Hugo<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please Note: I&#8217;m working on a paper at the moment, so my Wednesday blog will be brief and has nothing<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/?p=543\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Sanctuary<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[40],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-543","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-wow"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/543","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=543"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/543\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=543"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=543"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hugodlr.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=543"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
