More spin.. Like I said I never had any issue with ANYONE in RD. Are you going to explain the difference between RD and Nihilum now? Oh wait, just continue to deflect.

- Oppressor

Actually I did already on like the first page of this thread:

I could make plenty of arguments about why someone would want to be in Red Dawn over Nihilum. Not everyone is a min/max power gamer that is seeking instant end game gratification. Many people develop bonds with the people they're guilded with, enjoy being that "lower tier" guild that's constantly progressing. They enjoy that the encounters are more difficult with "less skilled" pve'ers or with less numbers, and don't find the same satisfaction being in an already progressed guild where the encounters are done with ease. It's the difference between joining a cutting edge WoW progression guild where heroic raids are on farm and look easy [because they've had it on farm for months], and you just sleep walk it, vs. being part of a lower tier guild who wipes repeatedly and struggles but you get that great feeling of satisfaction after beating the encounter. Neither approach is "right" or "wrong."

Some people may also not be comfortable with the people Nihilum guilds. Nihilum is definitely THE pve guild on Red99. Because of this, they're willing to accept almost anyone to help them achieve their goal, knowing that since they hold the carrot [pixels], they can force members in line. For many people, they don't care. If you'll help me kill the mob so be it, just please shut up and keep the drama to the boards. Red Dawn hasn't taken that approach. Again, neither approach is right or wrong, just different ways to play the game.

There's a difference of loot systems. Some people are philosophically opposed to officer council. Others hate DKP.

I could go on and on with the differences about why someone may be happy in Red Dawn vs. Nihiulm, or vice versa.

What IS indisputable however is, that Azrael was with Red Dawn and had the chance to be one united guild. Your fearless leader, without communicating to any of the leadership of Red Dawn, decided to end that. Now you're asking why we haven't allied with you guys? Not sherrif srs.
