More guilds are needed for mid level
 
Hi guys, This post is directed at some of the new eq mac players.

The population has gone up a bit and ive seen a lot of new people around, first off let me say welcome!

The server has a rivalry between the dark side ( Nihilum ) and the rebels ( Everyone else ) But one very important thing is missing.

You see, nihilum will recruit anyone above level 30, powerlevel them and shower them in gear so they join their guild. But most of us don't want anything to do with their schenanigans.

But what other guild options are there? None really, last time I spoke with Agatha he said azrael was only accepting 55+ players ( Which is most likely why they lose all day long on the server )

Its obvious no leadership presence is in the guild, as no direction is being given or any effort at all to bolster the ranks with fresh players.

What we need is a guild for players who are looking for a mid to light endgame experience. say levels 20-52ish, by then players would be ready to make their choice.

Honestly id like to see a new rebel guild be formed since I am level 52 and seeking a guild myself, but what we need is a leader here. Someone who can TELL PEOPLE WHAT TO DO

because these type of people on red99 need to be told what to do, The only reason nihilum because successful is because they have one of those type of people, and even tho people slam him and talk all the bullshit in the world, he owns this shit.

so if you ever led a guild in the past, and would consider starting one here, do it, shit id help.

I saw Nizzar actively encouraging some low level guilds to get formed last night. I am hoping Azrael leadership takes the same stance.

And if they really want to help, police some of the low level zones like Mistmoore, Crushbone and Unrest with supertwinks from the douchebaggery that wants to chase new people off the server.

I've had the benefit of some high level friends helping me out, but many of these EQMac players will not. Some (if not the majority) of these players were high end raiding types that have a lot to add to Azrael or Nihilum on the PVE side, and eventually the PVP side when they get their feet wet.

While I agree with the general theme of the post, don't drag the rebels vs Nihilum crap down to the low level ranges. The more benefactors the low level population has the healthier it will be.

Nihilum has a pretty strict no griefing policy of newbs

Especially those new guilds of 52-53's - wait see sig, who are we kidding here Nizzar just an addicted kid.

I for one have been grping with alot of lower levels in the 30-50s range between a few of my stealth characters and it seems that they are going to try to take the #3 spot, not join in with azrael or nihilum.

As for our policy with griefing lowbies, you guys are welcome to check the leaderboards and see who pvp's the 52s the most.

Anyone who wants to join azrael is free to start the application process at any time, we offer help in any way possible granted you have shown genuine interest and commitment to red99. you will however not recieve a tag until you are lvl 55.

Basically forcing those mid range players to level in secret, quit, or join the resistance through force. There is no alliance, Azrael is full of bad players, assholes, and griefers.

There is no problem. Neither side is the victim, or the aggressor. It's just the way shit is.

One thing I HAVE noticed though is that Azrael seems to kill anything that moves. I don't see it as a Nihilum vs. The Resistance thing at all, I see two separate guilds doing their own thing. Not saying that Nihilum doesn't do the same thing, but clearly they have what they need already to get things done on the PVE side.

I guess I'm just puzzled by the fact Azrael isn't trying to be the good guys. I feel like I'm in the demographic that Azrael should be trying to impress: PVP experienced, new to the server, leveling up at a fairly good rate and eventually looking for a guild. You're free to say you don't give a shit what I think, but if the majority of people in my demographic feel the way I do then you're just pushing people to the only other option available to them.

And the PRAS spam every kill definitely gets old...nobody minds a little trash talk but shit guys, act like you've been there. Save the talk for when you do something meaningful.

azrael is azrael, anyone who doesn't find our particular game style will not fit in. We conform nor bend to anyone's standards besides our own. We will play the game how we like, contest the dragons we want to contest and have fun when we want to have fun. That said I don't see how you could peg us as the bad guys, specially when nihilum has been proven time and time again as the guild most banned/suspended for rule breaking/exploiting.

I'm not trying to flame here, but what honestly is the difference between the #2 and #3 spot on this server?

I was not trying to paint you as bad guys, I'm sorry if it came off like that. I meant it more like you said, you guys are just doing your thing. I don't consider Nihilum or Azrael to be the good guys OR the bad guys.

I just hear a lot of talk about "the resistance" and I just find that not to be true at all. There is Nihilum, and there is Azrael. There probably are a few other small guilds that really don't effect the landscape in the 55+ world.
