This is dirrected to the community at large and no single guild.

I think it's pretty sad that also those people that used to tout their love of the true competition, thrill of the race, etc. are so silent now. The people that were so hardcore, bragged of skill, of server firsts, of doing more with less, quickly, efficiently, with fewer deaths.

I know many of them are still in one of these 2 guilds (or in some cases the smaller guilds allied with them. Is that really what it was all about? How did it get to this point? Why are all your leaderships okay with this? Do you still feel proud? Or is it kind of an embarrassment but you stick around for that one last piece of loot you "need"?

I think the greatest loss is to see all these people that truly clung to the glory of being #1 at something in this game (and many of them are actually great players) being reduced to just a part of the DPS machine.
