In a vacuum I think you're right Nirgon, and if this was a fresh server we wouldn't have this issue. But people right now just stop on by to check things out, see a wasteland with crazy ooc spam and forums, and log off.

Global ooc needs to be one message per person per at least 10 minutes, with quick/easy revocation for people abusing it. You also have /lfg and tells to work off of from there.

I am against yellow text but it is mighty handy in dealing with morons who will deny that they died and bind rush over LNS. The problem is the "global shame" of a death and of course all the people on the server who don't like you spamming you with shit.

Rallos Zek had more/more quality pvp than red, but every day I didn't log in to people ripping their hair out over pixels and making RL attacks. Imagine that, a PvP server not filled with degenerates.

It's pretty easy now to say that no one wants another massive scum operation in town, keep the guilds at least some what divided (aka not 80 active people in 154 pop server). I mean really... do you wanna get up at 6am to raid for something you have to buy (wink) out of the guild bank? Do you really want to raid something or contest it to some insane hour of the morning just so some random person can't finish a druid epic?

Form your separate guilds, do your own thing, don't obsess about raid targets... be nice to new people and have a system in your guild like HB did to reward people that help build the pop.

Basically? Act like a normal functioning human being to people and they will want to come and stay.

As far as who is going to be "the next scum bag huge guild".. I mean take a look and see who wants to mass recruit on this 150 pop box or is making obsessive plans about raid targets already.
