Hello, my name is Metroid from red99. A good group of us are starting up a new guild called <Employed> on red that will be focusing on Kunark content and venturing into Velious as numbers allow.
We have a group of very strong players with a lot of knowledge and PvP skills. Alot of us are leveling up alts and planning on helping new players do the same. If there was ever a time to try out red, now is a good time.
Private message me or ask for Metroid in game if you have any questions.

Just stop logging in for a month or 2 so they can wipe the server already.

Do you recruit super casuals or this for hard core type play?
tnttoken
06-28-2017, 10:49 AM
We recruit anybody that just wants to play and have fun. Casuals are of course welcomed, just understand that your play time does affect loot decisions (obviously).
Most of us in this guild have families and priorities. Alot of us have met up in real life when traveling around and stuff. Just living life and loving some EQ.

Why is this here shitting up the blue forums ? get this moved to red RnF

Firstly, this is the stupidest place to put this, at the least in general guild forum but it will get locked/moved/deleted like every other one
Secondly, your guild of 70 that tried to raid got demolished by the top guild on red, Apex, and you reformed now that the guild leader said fuck you and only 20 of you log on now. Have fun distributing loot when you raid Lodi (we have let you have PD for 3 weeks now out of pity)

For me this is the most important thing. I need more details before I consider joining you on red, Metroid.
Exactly how strong are these players? I can only join true alpha males that are benchpressing no less than 200% their own body weight. I also expect them to be able to perform barbell bicep curls of no less than 100 pounds. Calisthenics are also very important to me, I expect every guild member to be able to knock out 100 pushups without stopping, and 50 dips on a typical dip bar.
These are important factors, as I can't associate with weakling nerds even on a 20 year old elf sim. I believe the only way a guild succeeds is if the members are like-minded and like-bodied, fit in both regards.
Let me know if you guys are actually strong. I just might have found myself a guild, afterall.

If you are a 4th rank guild on blue. Possibly you dont understand how raiding on red works? You probably missed the last 4 months when this guild went from taking nearly everything for around 2 months because they fielded 60-70 vs our 25-30 (on good days) when we contested them, to us denying them every single thing including vindi.
They wont keep PD but we are busy rebuilding and slaying everything else.

Now when I think of the 30-40 players on red, I think of the cast from the movie 300 behind the keyboards, loincloths and all.

Needed most: clerics / rogues / bards / shaman
We don't really care about what is needed though. We can work around whatever people wanna play. Play what you have fun with and log in is all you need to do.
Time zone as far as raiding is 8pm-midnight EST, but we have people logged in doing stuff mostly all the time.
What token said is so true. Best part about low pop is that literally everyone is needed. And everyone knows everyone. Play what you like. If you're looking to have an easy time leveling and getting a foothold in the server, I suggest enchanter. I wouldn't go warrior for a first toon though.

10 levels in 2 days? Hope I can keep up with being uber casual.
I can jump in game about 6pm EST or chuck me a private message and we make plan.

I think tonight is going to be a later start for us, around 845pm EST.
I'll PM you the discord info when I get home (around 530 est).
We are working on picking up the pace, but yes, we are only doing a few hours each night. Trying to make them as productive as possible though.

*looks into crystal ball to tell your red99 future*
you will be farmed by fungi twinks repeatedly while leveling to the point you begin to consider if this is a good idea or not. oh well, you're already in your 30s so may as well keep going. hey, some guy named drybone is helping me level nice! you continue getting griefed by overgeared fungi twinks and cry in ooc about how its not fair. you petition but a GM doesn't help you.
but things are looking up! youre almost 51, the big leagues. well, the pvp is still nightmarish people are now training you 24/7 and killing you over and over and over and its getting really old. you petition again and there is no GM response.
but you got invited to Apex! nice!
you finally hit the big 6-0! you are still dying constantly in pvp and its really annoying. but I got a piece of raid loot! man this is awesome! after you get 3-4 more pieces of loot you realize that the guild you're in is filled with people who are either 1) on drugs 2) unemployed 3) mentally ill or 4) all of the above. the constant stream of babble from life-losers and the mentally ill becomes tedious after week 2, you join their teamspeak less and less to avoid it.
you soon lose interest and fade into the obscurity of norrath never to be seen again. you're welcome.
do not come to red99 under any circumstances.

I bumped into a few de-leveled / epic'ed twinks while leveling up (this was a couple years ago) and after some back & forth between us; it was met with laughs and/or mutual buffs. I guess being a cleric they either took pity on me or didnt like being stunned & blinded, etc. I'm leaning towards the first since they did resist half of what I casted at them.
