Standard Raid Buttons

from the Catalysts Guild Library

I think it has come to a point and time where we can and will benefit greatly by making standard raid messages and/or 'buttons'. This is not an option. Everyone needs to change their buttons to match what is outlined in this article.

Note: Follow these button examples exactly. There is a reason for everything that is in the button and a reason for everything that is NOT in the button. Most if not all commands are designed to be said twice o­n purpose so people will not miss vital commands.
