idk, looks pretty ended to me, maybe our definitions are different.

and i'm okay with that, i play solo so this new experience of the camps i camp being open whenever i want is pretty neato

>Everyone knows the pop would/will jump with the announcement of new green and/or custom content.

i don't see how a new announcement of anything other than a merge does blue any good

What if we crowdfunded a p99 commercial on tv? Would that get more players on here you think?

Guild 3 started building steam.
Guild 1 and 2 merged to make the largest guild in server history just to beat Guild 3.

Gravity had nothing to do with any decision to merge with Kittens. The real story is it started as an offhand joke made by one of the Riot Officers. It was surprisingly well received by Kittens because they had some real issues with officer burn out. They went from competing for Vulak to operating as a raiding guild primarily only on quakes in a short amount of time as a result of the momentum they lost from constant GM Meta changes. It was either merge or see Kittens dwindle and seeing an even bigger group of them leave. So yes, at least part of the reason was for the health of the server.

Despite the crying and demands made from Gravity to CSR post-merge because the "dozens" of new recruits never manifested in their ranks. Gravity went from killing a few quake mobs and like hate mobs pre-merge to a much larger percentage of mobs post merge, as a result of the fact that one guild can only be at one place at a time instead of competing against 2 entities... even before the tailor made meta. Drafts had one less entity selecting raid targets as well. So essentially it resulted in everyone in the raid scene winning.

How long are the Fuse pixel lines? Wouldn't it be better for a new raid scene arrival to go to a Sanctum guild at this point?

The crazy thing is Fuse is still recruiting! I talked to a guy that was in one of the Sanctum guilds, and they told him to leave and join Fuse. They said he could get all the gear he wants in a year or so and then leave to join another guild. Why not close recruiting? Why are you still trying destroy every other guild on the server?

They want to be the one stop shop for raiding and gearing. It isn’t really about denying people pixels anymore.

Doesn’t matter what you’re guild in. Pixels are being denied everywhere unless you’re a 1% poopsocker.

This is conveniently vague in every way except the one that furthers the same narrative which was just shown to have no merit. First attempt failed but, hey, why be deterred when confronted with how incorrect those previous assertions were, when another one can be made instead.

Also, recruiting one member does not equate to destroying another guild, much less every guild on the server. As low as the server pop has been, that's still hyperbolic.

Just admit that you guys are bad for the server and don't give a shit.
