Why is it a good thing for TMO to do their own thing but a bad thing for <Fresh> ?

I think, in a way, it undermined your own purpose (though I wouldn't say wholly). That pushed a lot of players into our arms out of just frustration. And Gardur wanted to usurp you as the leader (which everyone was hoping would be an amicable change/ agreement), but GG happened instead.

They're hemorrhaging members to us now at an even greater rate, but to be fair there was a good amount of that going on when you were projecting neo-nazism onto us.

Still, you're right that Fresh would've been better off if not involved in the merge.

The irony behind this is the majority of members that have gone to Empire from GG were ex-Azrael.

Anyone else finding humour in this?

I'm calling empire out for what it is. I was grateful that they took in my pals from Blaze/Smoke Break, but time and time again they have proven to be corrupt as fuck. Did you know Vapo loaned 500k to their guild to get them started? Many epic MQs, raw plat and items?

Did you know God's Work was the whole reason Empire/Holo came to power? They had an agreement with God's Work to provide a Crown of Rile and backstabbed them as part of the trade. Was it worth burning bridges over a crown, which they since have gotten over 20+?

I can wait in line for pixels, I just don't like it when people can jump the queue due to under the table deals. That shit shouldn't be on but is a regular theme in Empire. Stasis getting the first pair of Hoshkar boots after being in both Azrael and God's Work and openly griefing Holo every step of the way?

Nihilum (Nizzar) awarded based on "he's done his time," rather than someone who puts in more effort/ time helping others. They awarded Shrimp and Qazzaz crown of riles because they were highest on the DKP list. Those 2 are/ were not proactive players - they were warm bodies who didn't even know the zone layouts they were in half the time. They played like Pudge and Oppressor in Azrael on raids.

Vaporize was furious when Qazzaz and Shrimp were awarded those crowns (and over Qazzaz being awarded VS gauntlets just days later) based on time instead of measuring actual effort. Every raid was a select 12 or so people doing all the heavy lifting to make the raids go smoothly while everyone waited for their pixel pinatas. People with 50 less DKP that did 1000% more on raids/ after raids were passed up for shitters who "put in their time."
