The problem with a "zerg" guild, and the challenge before us

[Videri]

Alright, let's get back to the point of my thread. Be aware of the meta-battle, the propaganda battle, and don't be taken in by it. Notice that in the very thread I pointed this out in, multiple <Holocaust> members immediately try to make it seem like their guild is the only choice. It's not.

New players ought to just meet people in-game and see who you want to play with.

Well from a new players perspective, based on everything said here and in other posts, mine included, it really seems like a new player has 2 options. Either join one of the smaller guilds, get some loot content but have to claw, dig and fight hard as hell for it OR join holo and get free pixels (as long as requirements r met of course).

I can kinda see why some folks may just do the latter out of ease...

server has shown us zerg guild works, because zerg is easy

people would rather wait in line for gear than work for it

But an MMO is about facing challenges together. So why take the easy road? Remember, winter is coming, newer guilds are coming up, and times are changing...

Best just wait till Velious and a second guild will naturally develop based off excess content. Will probably be Fresh? or Azrael?

This server feels like it's a step from being really competitive... That's why I came here instead of blue. Honestly a lot of good people with a few bad apples.

If/when this server gets 400 during peak times, which it will since velious on blue is going to be way worse, It will absolutely be able to support 2 or 3 large dragonslaying guilds if those people work together.

Players who enjoy a challenge can find it.

When it comes to myself, I'm some what of a masochist (christ, I play EQ) so I would probably still look for a smaller guild to attempt to combat the perceived "zerg" guild...

What possible glory is there for you in the old guard?

...by not being in [the zerg] you grant yourself the opportunity to be more than a warm body.

To anyone who wants a challenge, to anyone who really wants to test their PvP and PvE skills to the max, to anyone who wants to be part of a revolution, there are other guilds out there for you where you can make a name for yourself.

If you want to be part of something revolutionary, send me a PM.
