Hey bub, it's always important to consider the responsibility we all have to other humans. A lot of people in our little community are struggling IRL right now, and this is their escape.

When there are so many other ways to handle this, why chose a route that could cause more harm than good?

The fervent anger in your response shows me you're hurting and hints at a lack of understanding of the situation. Basically the same 30 people (regardless of the guilds they've been in) have been arguing and competing with each other for years now. They are also the ones coming up with the new plan.

The other 400ish of us are just here to hang with friends and enjoy the game just like you. However, they way we like to enjoy the game is to play with a big community of people at the same time. And as far as i know the only way to actually play the game with 60-100 people at once and in the same place is by raiding.

And unless you raid a lot, which it sounds like you might not, you likely don't understand the "party" style atmosphere that starts to brew when the raid gets going. That atmosphere is simply something you don't don't and can't get in a 6 person party grinding somewhere or simply from guild chat.

And that's what i'm talking about, when the thing you do every Friday/Saturday night goes away suddenly and you have zero control over if it comes back and no idea if it will come back, AND you've been isolated due to the pandemic AND your country is undergoing big changes that in some cases make people feel even more isolated. It'd be nice to have your hobby still. However, currently it's been snatched away and the only real info you have to go on is a meme of a russian hockey player and all the "non-toxic" players trying to rub it in your face.


Show some compassion, you'll find you can actually learn a lot.

sorry you don't got raids, be less toxic
