Hey everyone,

As many have suspected, and is evident by some very key people that have retired over the last month, the raiding days of Catalyst have come to an end. It's been a great journey and I'm sure, like myself, many of you have made some good friends or at least found some really great players along the way.

We've had our ups and downs with the guild. We really started out with a huge bang at the start of Wrath of the Lich King and managed to aggressively stay near the front of the pack. As of late, however, the attendance has trickled down and we've been having a more and more difficult time accomplishing what needs to be done.

Rather than continue the struggle that has been going on for upwards of two months, the decision has been made to end the raiding days of Catalyst.

I personally wish you all the best with your World of Warcraft future. I have tremendous respect for many of you who have, despite the hardships, continued to be just as reliable and contributing as ever.

There are some seriously skilled players within the ranks of Catalyst and many guilds out there who would (or should) bend over backwards to have you as a part of their raid team.

It's been fun, all!
