It was a fun time before the end. 3 guilds were going hard. Raid mobs were being pretty evenly split between the 3 guilds. There was tons of mass pvp. Nihilum and Azrael were grinding each other to dust while RD was sniping mobs.
RD used to be more of a leveling guild much like Hokuten is now. So when the XP nerf hit a lot of people just stopped logging on. Sektor got banned and any character that he had ever logged on to. It took the GMs months unban people. Even more people took breaks/left the server.
Lite and HB didn't seem to be able to compromise on mob splits and Azrael started going hard on RD members because RD worked with Nihilum to split mobs. At the end RD went from 70 people to about 25. 20 or so were Azrael members who left when the server introduced simulated repops and the rest was due to poor staff decisions imo.
The server was at 200+ pop then <100 after XP nerf/ banning’s. The server just can't support 3 guilds when the pop is that low. We fizzled out and most of the officers joined Nihilum, Some of the regular crew joined Azrael, and a lot of the lower levels joined Uprising which was a leveling guild that died recently when Hokuten was formed.
The server is looking more positive now. Pop is up which is good, but so is Nihilum's zerg force which is bad. If there is a prime time repop I would guess Nihilum could easily log in 65 for a raid force. Myself and others are trying to help out Hokuten. For instance last week I helped Azrael kill Draco, and Azrael just gave the loot to Hokuten.
Azrael is in hibernation at this point after ruling the server for a few months.
Nihilum is on top again after mass recruiting most of the new people who joined the server when the xp bonus was introduced.
Hokuten is the new resistance. It’s and is fun but I miss a lot of my pals.

Good to see all vets aren't bitter.
Great post regarding guild histories.
