Welcome
Welcome to Atlas Shrugged
WE ARE RECRUITING!!!! IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN JOINING US READ THE FOLLOWING AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AT THE RECRUITING PAGE. WE ARE INTERESTED IN EVERY CLASS AND WILL NEVER ASK YOU TO CHANGE YOUR SPEC. JUST REMEMBER THAT IF YOUR SPEC IS NOT RAID FRIENDLY YOU MAY GET BUMPED.
If you are viewing our web-site, we assume you are either a guildie, friend of a guildie, or may be interested in knowing more about Atlas Shrugged. We are a mature casual raiding guild (although we do have several early teen members) who believe that as a member of Atlas Shrugged you represent our guild at all times and are expected to purport yourself with Honor, Dignity and Respect for others.
First and Foremost, Atlas Shrugged is a family-friendly, casual raiding guild. We are casual only by environment, attendance, and attitude (we do like to have fun here!). However, on level of participation/skills in a raid, we are still a serious raiding guild. This means if you can only raid once a week, great, but when you raid you better bring your "A" game. Attendance to raids is not required and weeknights 8-11 are our primary raiding times (though there are various runs on almost every day). We build our rosters with quality in mind, as Atlas plays to win! Though most scheduled events are designed for the raiders, we do offer member activities occasionally as well.
Atlas Shrugged, however, is not a hardcore raiding guild. You may use whatever spec you like as long as it is not detrimental to the raid, and you may be asked to step aside for someone else who is more raid-spec friendly. No one will ever make you re-spec your toon into something you do not want to play. If serious, hardcore raiding is what you are after we really encourage you to consider another guild. Atlas will continue to progress, we will defeat new bosses and see great content, but not at the same pace and not with the same atmosphere that other guilds propagate. Atlas is a family friendly guild and we will progress like one.
Atlas Shrugged also promotes a family-friendly atmosphere in our guild chat and over our vent server. We will tolerate no foul language or non family friendly talk. If this sounds like the guild for you, go to the forums, read the applications section and the Membership agreement and click on the "JOIN ATLAS SHRUGGED" link above the sign-in screen. We always welcome new members who think the way we do.

ICC SHARED GUILD RUN ON SATURDAY AT 9 SERVER
Delysea-Ysera
, Jan 12, 10 2:51 PM.
As you all may or may not know by now, Atlas is partnering with another guild {BBL DOIN THE HOOD RAT THINGS} who we will now refer to as BBL. So even if you have no intention of signing up or going to ICC, but especially if you would like to be considered, you must,
MUST
research and study the fights. Everyone, even standby should have an inkling ,of what is going on and what is expected of you in this raid. If you are accepted, be there, food, flasks, bandages, sharpening stones ( yes i know they dont work at our level, it was just to emphasize the everything) scrolls, reagents, etc. to successfully raid. No one gets carried, we must still earn our spot. BBL has been running the 10 man version and wants to get into the 25 man content. We will be filling a limited number of slots and the officers of Atlas want you ready. Even if you dont make the initial cut, dont be discouraged, be prepared for stand-by. Have all your stuff and do something that will let you leave imediately. We will be going to ICC and if we should have 3 wipes we will go to Toc 25.
If you havent already, join the shared channel and get to know these people, they are very nice and we have run several things with their members before. Usually there are not many of their members on, but this is just another way for us to get to know each other.
As you may have guessed, Atlas will not be running this raid. BBL will have invite accept/pass waiver, will politely ask you to leave raid if you are unable to uphold your role and will explain how they do things. We will be their guests, on their vent, and they have no language barriers. We will still expect Atlas members to act in the Atlas way. Polite, funny, and clean. So good raiding, good luck, and have a good time.
Until we get better gear this has been changed to ToC 25 and will start at 9:30.

No Picture, but Ony 10 conquered

, Nov 20, 09 12:06 PM.
On Sunday with an almost all guild run we one shotted ony, grats everyone.
On Sunday, November 22, we once again conquered Ony 10, this time with a full guild run. Much gratitude to everyone who participated and all those who have gone with us before. Without all your contributions we wouldnt have made it.
On Sunday, November 15, Dragonofdoom led us to a victory over Onyxia in the 10 man mode. We had a little help from 2 new friends, Lampolo and AX. So thank you everyone who attended and all those who have been there before, without your groundwork we would have never made it. Now lets continue on and get her down again and get TotC completed.

CSS Additions now Live!
GuildPortal Change Log Entry
2/2/2010 4:26 PM
Prior to today's push, you had two options: 1) go with the stylesheet output that was based upon the settings in the control panel, or 2) supply a complete CSS replacement of your own.
Now, you have a third option; you can specify CSS Additions. These take the standard output from option 1 above, and add new rules you supply. They can be entirely new, perhaps for custom elements you use in something like a free-form HTML widget, or they can be used to override only specific elements from the default output.
The interface for working with CSS Additions is in your Control Panel, under Custom HTML and Script. Click Custom CSS, and then select the "CSS Additions to Standard" tab. Further information is provided there.
Last week, we ninja-patched in a new feature that can be accessed from the Custom HTML and Custom CSS sections of the Control Panel. A link is available that lists the current, standard GuildPortal CSS classes. It provides a pop-up window that you can keep open while you're working with your custom CSS or HTML, and clicking on most of the listed CSS classes provides a brief explanation of what they are used for. It's there to make custom CSS authoring a little easier.
Some may have noticed that the editor has also had an update. Many issues with the previous version are ironed out with the new one.
Finally, aside from bug fixes (in response to support tickets) in this update, the Control Panel's left pane is now collapsible -- using the slider bar's arrow -- so that whatever section of the Control Panel you're working in can be expanded further, giving you more room.
New Silverlight Gallery and Future Plans Revealed!
GuildPortal Change Log Entry
1/27/2010 5:52 PM
There's a new Silverlight-based gallery for your guild images available. You can get to it from any gallery widget on your sites by clicking Open Gallery. This opens the existing gallery, but in the top, right-hand corner is a new link to open the Silverlight version. If you don't have the Silverlight plug-in, you'll be prompted to install it.
It's in "beta" for the moment. One notable feature is missing -- the ability to comment on images. We wanted to get it out there in order to get some feedback on how people feel about taking a more RIA approach when it comes to future features and enhancements. While RIA (rich internet applications) can be, at the lowest level, simply Ajax-based (as GuildPortal is now), the frontier "Web 3.0" world looks to be populated with technologies like Silverlight and Adobe AIR/Flex.
If this is received well, we can put more emphasis on developing these kinds of richer (even occasionally disconnected!) features for your guild sites, moving from web sites to richer, more fully-featured guild management applications with more responsive and attractive interfaces. Of course, our stamp on the world of guild hosting has always been customizability, and that would move to the new platform, too!
It's important to emphasize that we've no plans to abandon the web-page side of things. All of this would be complimentary and fully integrated. Nor is building bigger and better always the way to go. For example, we also have plans for a fully-featured mobile client (based on standards, not for any specific device).
So if you've got a moment, pay a visit to the GuildPortal Admin Community and let us know what you think.
Guild Chat and Control Panel Goodies
GuildPortal Change Log Entry
1/21/2010 8:48 PM
Because it was being a pesky, quirky thing, Guild Chat has been completely rewritten. Aside from everything working the way it should, it has had some niceties added:
Notification by "System" when a user enters or leaves the room.
Sound Effects (which can be disabled using the checkbox to the lower right) when new chat comes across.
No longer brings itself to the front of all other browser windows. We had a long talk with it, gently explaining that it might not be the most important thing you're doing on the web at any given moment.
Allows the playing of a (currently) small list of available sound effects using the /sound sound_name_here command. Current list includes things like machine_gun, kiss, phone_ringing, rifle_shot, baby_cry_1, baby_laugh (to cheer up the kid from baby_cry_1), and, of course, flushing_toilet. Some sort of listing system for available commands and sounds will be coming.
Also, the Control Panel has had some issues addressed, informally, with a crowbar to the back of the neck.

New domains going live with tonight's code push, along with some tweaking for text alignment bugs introduced in the last patch.
New guilds are now able to select a sub-domain to start with, so that inviting people to your site will no longer require that you rattle off (or remember) a long string of numbers. In addition, new
primary domains
are available to all. We've gathered up quite a few to get started with, so you will have more options when it comes to the full addresses of your site (and maybe get around some of those pesky firewall restrictions "The Man" is imposing on you during your lunch break).
For new guilds, the list of available primary domains is displayed when you create your site. For existing guilds, you are able to change your existing sub-domains and primary domains through the Control Panel, under Subscription Services.

Links now show underlining by default, but it can be disabled in the Control Panel under Style Tools > General Style Settings > Text > Disable Link Underlining.
Tooltips have been removed from certain site elements where they were only serving to clutter, and where the purpose of the item they were "tipping" the function of was obvious. For example, "Click to visit the Forums page" would previously appear over the tab for "Forums."
Member links -- instead of showing an ever-growing collection of icons before them for interacting with the member -- now simply display a link that opens a profile viewer. From there, you can visit the member's blog, wall, send a message, and view other details.

The World of Warcraft Add-On (GPHelper) has had a couple of changes made: 1) the add-on itself has been marked for the latest version of WoW, and 2) guild bank item imports now work.
To get the latest version, open your Control Panel, click WoW Integration, and then click the download link. Instructions for installation are also on that page, in case you haven't done it before. Instructions are also given on how to use the add-on in-game, and finally, on how to upload the data the add-on collects to your site.
Now, as functionality such as blogging, walls, mail and one-on-one chat have been added to GuildPortal, you've probably noticed the icons stacking up next to user names on your sites. Though they can be disabled, once you do, the functionality that goes along with them is lost to you.
We're almost ready to push a change in how that works. Basically, user names will appear on the site as simple links, with no icons next to them (except in the forums). When clicked, a window will open up where you will be able to view the person's most recent blog entries, memberships and titles, and characters. It's there where you will have the ability to send them web-based mail, visit their blog/wall, or open up a one-on-one chat.
This will significantly de-clutter you guild pages, without sacrificing features. Expect that sometime next week, and as always, thank you for choosing GuildPortal!

Members viewing the calendar using IE8 would sometimes need to hit the next/previous arrows in order for the list to show up. This has been fixed.
In addition, admins can now find previous events more easily in the control panel by using the new search box.
Aside from these items, other bug fixes addressing support tickets have been pushed.

Today's code push includes more options for further customizing the new calendar. To get to the new options, click Edit under the calendar and then go to Display Options, and select the Day Styles tab. You'll need to enable the styles to change them by clicking the check box at the top. For each of the available styles (a day in the current month, today's day, and a day in a different month), you can set the backround color, day number color, background image URL, and background image tiling option.
Blog Commenting has been reworked a bit, so that comments may be left directly from the blog home page. Approval and deletion of comments, by the owner of the blog, is also handled from the blog home page.
Finally, we've included a fix in the push that addresses a problem with editing events that belonged to an event category that was deleted.
