Well, there will be an early thing...I'm not sure what, probably AE related. Afterwards, a low level tf wherein we get to mock Sept, possibly followed by a higher level one.
I don't really feel like running the strike target respec trial, but some of us may be needing one so that is an option.
So, we started off warming up our khelds on a Warshadenfest. For some reason, I was too herp derp to take pictures for that. My bad.
Anyhow...
We then ran the WTF, which was the 1st respec mission.
Afterwards, was a LGTF run. Good times were had by all, especially when I broke out the Rum, Vodka, and root beer.
Until next Friday!

He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

I thought it was obvious? We attempted to form, it didn't happen. Not enough people cared to attend, or were high enough. We had to settle for something with a smaller team size and/or level requirement.

I have been thinking about transferring to Protector, as it is something of an unofficial Kheldian server? Things may not form for many reasons. I just wanted to know which it was. Lack of interest in that server for such a thing would make it no better than the server I am on so I would have no reason to move.

You mean because they couldn't form an all-Kheld STF on demand on a Friday night? We pre-organized the All-Kheldian Lambda trial we did on Protector and we beat the hell out of it. Everyone's favorite MFing Warshade, Dechs Kaison, even transferred over just for the event. No need to doubt the Kheldian activity on Protector.

*shrug* Have fun on your server, then, I suppose. I guess the rest of what we can pull off means nothing in comparsion to not being able to form for an STF the one time we tried it.

I think a Posi part 1 or 2 would be in order, to help get my baby Warshade up to snuff.

The Kheldian Fridays event has a primary focus of having fun. I don't think Stone, myself, or any of the other regulars ever advertised it as something to the degree of, "Please transfer here if you have a specific task force that you would like to do with only Kheldians and you can't find a team for it anywhere else."
This is a community event, where all the regulars are good friends who happen to enjoy playing Kheldians. It also happens that quite a few of us are very good at playing our Kheldians, which is probably what earned Protector the "Unofficial Kheldian Server" title.
We managed to do great things, such as breezing through all Kheldian ITF's, Lambda, Apex, and Tin Mage. But we never encouraged outsiders to join us, unless those outsiders happened to be friends of one or more of us, like Dechs. (Note: We never discouraged it, either. The door always was and remains open.) We just ran the events, people saw what we were doing, and a few from outside the server chose to join us.
Sorry for the history lesson. I just felt that it was in order, since New Dawn seems to have taken our reputation out of context and assigned some unwarranted sense of expectation to it. Carry on!

Like THB said, Kheldian Fridays is a place for people who like playing khelds to come and have some fun. I don't ask that people from other servers transfer over. I can understand not wanting to leave a home server--it's generally something I wouldn't do myself. That said, if one wanted to, cool. Otherwise, they can start a new kheldian on this server if they wanted to just team up with us occasionally. I've personally helped a couple members get a bump in level so that they could participate in our events, and try to keep that in mind when deciding on which event we are going to do for that week.
That is one of the reasons I don't plan my schedule in advance. Well, that, and I'm a spontaneous guy. I even ask that people let me know if they have anything they would like to do, because I get undecided sometimes, and I like to keep things mixed up. The priority is always having fun and making sure everyone feels welcome. So, if the reason you would want to transfer over is to specifically run one task force (The STF), I think you're probably wanting to join us for the wrong reasons, and will be disappointed. Last time we tried, we didn't have enough regulars logged in that had their level 50s and could join for the STF. It was rather an uncommon night, as we've obviously had enough people to run other level 50 events. One day one of us will feel like doing the STF again, and we will. And we will probably beat the pants off of it.
Now, if there is anything anyone else would like to say about this, I would ask that you take it to PMs or on another thread, because I can see where a conversation like this might go, and this really isn't the place.
I'll come to the next one. I have a 50 WS. Remember the Sushi Bar?

I'm afraid not, but I'm sure we'll be happy to have you. I think this week will be a Posi and perhaps a Numina TF.

I played on freedom since 06', until recently when I moved my shade, and coincidentally my main, over to Protector.
Specifically for kheldian fridays? Not entirely but yes, with intention to participate.
I also wanted a change of pace from a busy server and the endless pug teams, and this seemed more than reason enough to move.
I would say it'd be worth it to move your kheldian over from your home server. I did it, no regrets there. That being said, if you're fan of playing a kheld you should at least make one on protector if you're online most Fridays 
.
We always seem to need a PB or 2 to balance out all the purple on teams.
This was one of our longest Fridays yet!
First, we ran the Citadel TF, since none of us really felt like exemping down to Positron's level.
Next, we ran the Cavern of Transcendance in under ten minutes:
Finally, we ran the Numina TF, because everyone loves extra merits:
I'll see you guys next Kheldian Friday, or perhaps even sooner! Also, for anyone who hasn't joined yet, please remember that we have a channel (/join_channel Kheldian Fridays) that we use to decide what we are going to do, or just reach out and chat to the other members. Please be sure to add it to one of your active chat tabs. I promise not to spam you to distraction 
Also, be aware of my event on Feb. 4th (Layla's B-Day event)! Don't forget to prepare your costumes!
I just thought that I would add, there was an awesome Dwarven Dance party this friday just before our citadel!
And then we found some competition, intimidation seemed to be the only clear course of action.
Does anyone else think we need a nice shiny seal just like Tanker Tuesday has???

Wow. That looks very nice. However, I think the lobster form and human form are in need of representation.
I think you should put an anthropomorphic figure in the middle and a lobster at the bottom.
Beyond that, does anyone think we need less purple but more white?
Great job Zaloopa.
Haha, awesome logo Zaloopa!

This week on Kheld Fridays....
