These are the add-ons that you are expected to use in lieu of adding to the green wall of text that we know as Guild Chat. 
=== [[GreenWall]] ===


=== aieCallToArms ===
Due to the guild size limitations that were introduced by Blizzard in 4.0.1 (pre-Cataclysm), AIE has been converted to a confederation of container guilds (co-guilds).  The [[GreenWall]] add-on ties together the guild chat channels of the co-guilds to simulate a large, monolithic guild.


Due to the size of the guild, using guild chat to look for groups or find members to fill out a group you have can be very frustrating. We recommend the use of aieCallToArms to handle LFG and LFM requests. Even if you do not run the add-on, you can join the aieLFG channel in game and see group and availability announcements.
You are not strictly required to run [[GreenWall]], but you are not allowed to complain about confusion caused by missing or one-sided conversations if you are not running it.


Please read the aieCallToArms User Guide for more details.

If you like instances or raiding, this add-on is critical. A good threat meter helps you keep aggro where it needs to be and keeps wipes to a minimum. It can also  improve your DPS, read [[Threshold Braking for WoW]] for an explanation why.

We used to use dbCraft for sharing information about our crafting skills, however development stopped after the introduction of WotLK. We are now running GuildCraft as a trial replacement.

It also has several other related utilities that you can install individually, or together from a single distribution.

These are add-ons that we find to be very useful. These add-ons will enhance not only your interaction with members of the guild, but with all players on the Earthen Ring realm.


Guild Standards

GreenWall

Due to the guild size limitations that were introduced by Blizzard in 4.0.1 (pre-Cataclysm), AIE has been converted to a confederation of container guilds (co-guilds). The GreenWall add-on ties together the guild chat channels of the co-guilds to simulate a large, monolithic guild.

You are not strictly required to run GreenWall, but you are not allowed to complain about confusion caused by missing or one-sided conversations if you are not running it.


Highly Recommended

Omen

If you like instances or raiding, this add-on is critical. A good threat meter helps you keep aggro where it needs to be and keeps wipes to a minimum. It can also improve your DPS, read Threshold Braking for WoW for an explanation why.

It also has several other related utilities that you can install individually, or together from a single distribution.
