Yes - you will notice a trend of Nihilum, versus non Nihilum - unfortunately all the people who don't play here can't vote. I'm sure a high % of the players in control of this low pop box will vote yes as it benefits them. Those seeking a large pop are an endangered species these days.

Yes. I used to be against Variance, until I saw how Nihilum has a lot of trouble fielding people for the 3 day raids like Trakanon / Dracoliche, but for a once a week plow through everything fiesta they can get everyone on. With variance and having to have multiple bat phones, they won't be able to field 50+ to everything. I think Variance would be great. Imagine you're in Halls of Testing doing some gear clear and suddenly dozekar pops. Now you have a shot at a mob you may have never had before if it's "everything pops 30 minutes after each other and 70 people can log on for 3 hours and mow them all down."

Red Dawn recruiting, pixel packages offered, PL's, groups, good chat, good people. Yes, you can get your trak bp / vs greaves and epic faster in Nihilum. But keep in mind 1) the server becomes incredibly boring after you get those "items" with nothing left to do and little feeling of achievement 2) those items are easily obtainable in a couple of months with velious 3) will feel much better obtaining when you do so as a guild where each persons effort and hard work is needed for victory. There's a reason America loves the underdog. Be an American, join Red Dawn, don't be a Canadian socialist free handout scumsucker.

This is the whole point. Without variance you literally do nothing but have your same 50 wheelchair bound cripples log in and kill things in the same order each week. You are 90% of the lvl 60 population, who could contend with you?
Atleast with variance people might quit your guild out of frustration and start their own because they can pick off targets, the sick part is you will recruit more but one day no one will want to play under you because 99% of the players have gone through the Nihilum meat grinder, then what will you do for a living when you can't RMT all your plat/items?

Not as simple as a yes or no for me. I would say yes if it was a narrow window, say ± 1-3 hours, but not ± 6-24 hours. I don't like the idea of one group / guild locking down raid targets because they know exactly when they are going to pop, but I also loath poopsocking.

Because he saw how Holocaust destroyed him and his shitty guild when we were still around, and he never wants to go through that again. So to combat it he just realized he has to recruit 90% of the high level players and get them on the pixel lust assembly line and no one will ever be able to overthrow his guild and he can continue making money from RMT.
Nizzar is one of the worst PVPers I've encountered, but theres one thing you can say about him: he has no life and is willing to spend 2+ years of it dedicated to leading a huge zerg on a 50 pop elf simulator for pixels. He has no desire to lead a 25 man guild because he'd get over run in pvp by even mediocre players. He needs the zerg or he is useless.

strawman fallacy/argument
You misrepresented someone's argument to make it easier to attack.
By exaggerating, misrepresenting, or just completely fabricating someone's argument, it's much easier to present your own position as being reasonable, but this kind of dishonesty serves to undermine honest rational debate.
Example: After Will said that we should put more money into health and education, Warren responded by saying that he was surprised that Will hates our country so much that he wants to leave it defenseless by cutting military spending.

Oh look another strawman
A straw man, also known in the UK as an Aunt Sally,[1][2] is a common type of argument and is an informal fallacy based on misrepresentation of an opponent's position.[3] To "attack a straw man" is to create the illusion of having refuted a proposition by replacing it with a superficially similar yet unequivalent proposition (the "straw man"), and to refute it, without ever having actually refuted the original position.[3][4] This technique has been used throughout history in polemical debate, particularly in arguments about highly charged, emotional issues. In those cases the false victory is often loudly or conspicuously celebrated.
