This overwhelming reaction to be thankful from Azrael has to do with justification of their hate. They write about you "he is a saint" .
Thankfulness from Nihium were shown here from the traitor against Nihilum who were former Nihilummember i guess.
Thats politics, nothing else. You always get a thanks from Azrael whatever you do here after this.

Nevertheless making events on this toxicserver is a deserving job and good for the server and this whatever the reactions are.

I am pretty sure the reaction of Nihilum would have been the same like the one of Azrael now if it had been the other way.

I don't think nihilum would have done anything differently at the gm event. I just expected more from azrael. After all, half their roster is ex Nihilum members.

Personally im glad Deru takes the time to explain what hes doing. Not because he owes it to us, but so people can understand why hes doing things. Its also an opportunity for dialogue to improve events, get feedback, etc, if people are not dicks about it.

Yeah its not the players server, and they could turn it into whatever they want, switch hardcode pvp off, but would this go in the spirit of a red eq server? Again i think the less interference GMs can have between what goes on between the players, the better.

Im not sure whats the best solution for this, but to my mind some thought should be given to how to reduce the "stop pvp im doing something here" to as close to zero as humanly possible.

I personally think it's awesome that a GM takes the time to stage an event. I am new to this server, however, I played on SZ for years before the server merge and then stayed a few years after that. PVP on Live EQ is all but dead and gone. There's no GMs to be seen and definitely no events. Even though I was too low to participate in this event, I do look forward to future events. I missed the classic EQ experience and, so far, I am loving this server. So, thanks Derubael!!

I'd disagree with the posters saying that Nihilum would have acted in a fashion similar to Azrael. Nihilum leadership during 2014 was very much against participating in GM events (for reasons I do not know, and do not want to speculate or be "informed" about). Nihilum recruits and members did participate in several GM PvP events and would go about doing so in an amicable manner. Azrael on the other hand would show to events with a full assist train (as they did with this latest event) and prior to the event starting, proceed to hunt down Nihilum and corpse camp until forcibly told to stop.

While I can't claim knowledge of what happened prior to 2014 at GM events on the server, I do know that Nihilum had a change of policy in how it interacted with the server due to prior bans that were effective in policing how certain Nihilum veterans would act in general.

Again, thank you Deru for trying to hold an event. PvE events that involve a raid encounter just aren't going to work on a PvP server because of PvP competition. Maybe a mass Halloween type event with lots of mobs that have a varied level range and a small chance to drop level appropriate items. Otherwise, sticking with PvP events would probably be best.

One of my fav Nihilum memories is when Nizzar told us we'd be guild removed if we attended an event Derubael was running, since Derubael was obviously Lithiuum and corrupt.
