Guild Bank Amusements.

As Guildkeeper for , I get the enviable task of sorting out the guild bank. By "sorting" I really mean clearing the useless items out, shifting items into their appropriate tabs, and doing it regularly.

My worst time being in my position, is when Northrend was discovered.

Suddenly the items from the Outlands dropped in value and use, while the relics of Azeroth became even more cumbersome paperweights. Space had to be made for new discoveries and little gewgaws from the North, and I had to enlist the help of my guild member Bloodwitch. He tried to auction off what he could, to salvage as much of their value as possible, but eventually a large majority went to the rich vendors.

I wonder how these commoners get their money pouches filled.

A frequent contributer to the guild is Stoutfury, and of recent he has been dropping gems into the guild bank.

In the morning, I logged on to see this:

But, Stout being Stout, he failed to see my annoyance at his little artwork. After all, I was the one who had to shift every gem, piece by piece, into the right tab. Not him. Having warned him, I went on my day, thinking his promise of "adding eyebrows" to be just a little joke.

After all, who had such time to waste? Not me.

In the evening, I learnt that one should never assume such.
