Blackwing Lair is a close knit group of players. Those who leave rarely seem to stay away for long. At the very least, they seem to remain lurking on the server's forums.
If you're looking to transfer to Blackwing Lair the general attitude is "Alliance or go away!". Not that the server has too many Horde players, but it has far too few Alliance players. Typically, even the resident Horde do not want new Horde transfers as further imbalance hurts our world PvP.
Wrath of the Lich King guild progression
Note killing a boss on the same raid night is considered a TIE due to different raiding schedules.
The following tables represent the progression of the server. The bosses listed are the bosses guilds have downed not bosses the guilds are currently working on.
Italics indicates that the guild killed bosses out of order and has only killed the bosses listed.
Icecrown Citadel Progression
Icecrown Citadel progression will use the same system as Ulduar in that only normal modes will be listed on the main progression chart, and a separate chart will be used to track Icecrown hard mode progression. 'Cleared' will signify the guild has defeated The Lich King on normal mode. We will decide at a later date if a clear of all hard modes will be tracked on the main chart.
The bosses with limited attempts (Professor Putricide, Blood Queen Lana'thel, Sindragosa, and The Lich King) will take priority over the other bosses. For example, a guild that has defeated Professor Putricide but not The Blood Prince Council will be given priority over a guild that has defeated The Blood Prince Council but has not yet defeated Blood Queen Lana'thel or Professor Putricide.
Similar to Crusader's Coliseum, Trial of the GRAND Crusader Progression takes PRIORITY over (normal) Icecrown Citadel progression. If another guild has cleared Trial of the GRAND crusader then they have progression priority over any (normal Icecrown Citadel accomplishment.
Crusader's Coliseum Progression
Trial of the Crusade Bosses are to be listed in white, and green for normal 'Cleared'.
Trial of the Grand Crusade Bosses are to be listed in yellow, and yellow for heroic 'Cleared'.
Ulduar Progression takes PRIORITY over (normal) ToC Progression. If another guild has cleared Ulduar then they have progression priority over any (normal) ToC accomplishment.
Ulduar Progression
Priority
1. Complete Clear
2. Yogg-Saron Hard Mode
3. Algalon
Pre-Ulduar Progression
- Sartharion (# of drakes up), ie Sartharion(2) for 2 drakes.
Hard Mode Progression
Encounters with multiple hard modes will be tracked as follows
- Flame Leviathan - Cleared(1), Cleared(2), Cleared(3), Cleared(4) --- Add 1 for each tower left up.
- Iron Council - Cleared(1), Cleared(2) --- 1 for Molgiem last, and 2 for Steelbreaker last. (*Note* Some people consider Steelbreaker last to be the only hard mode. But either of these last will provide the Archivum Data Disc).
- Freya - Cleared(1), Cleared(2), Cleared(3) --- Add 1 for each Elder left up.
- Yogg-Saron - Cleared(1), Cleared(2), Cleared(3), Cleared(4) --- Add 1 for each watcher you leave out of the fight.

World PvP
From the Horde point of view, "Do Alliance even exist on this server?"; from the Alliance point of view "They're everywhere man!". This is why nearly all World PvP objectives are controlled by the Horde.
Alliance tend to only engage in the World PvP objectives when after particular PvP Rewards. On occasion, guilds will 'stir the pot' and create mayhem for a few hours, and sometimes a Pug group will be successful. Though nearly all these cases are ended when the Alliance is zerged by the Horde.
Several events have been planned via Blizzard's World of Warcraft Blackwing Lair realm forum and carried out with varying degrees of success such as Hillsbrad Wars.
Alliance tend to feel that they can go to any zone (especially Northrend zones) and create a large fight with many Horde quickly rolling in. Horde tend to feel that Alliance are wimps and never want to PvP. Alliance claim that it is because they get so much of it, and sometimes have other farming/questing objectives in mind. Many Alliance do in fact enjoy world PvP but with the 4 to 1 ratio it can be daunting, however recently there has been a shift and more alli are engaging horde in pvp situations. Alliance would very much like to see more numbers added to their ranks on this realm.
