The bright side of it all that this is *just* an emu server.

Not that it isn't grand; I'm actually having way more fun here than i did in live, but I don't think we're going to have super strict guilds. Maybe we already do and I don't realize it because I'm only lvl 14, but people here have less vested. We aren't paying for it, you can't ebay your character (and if you did I think theres a much higher risk of it getting banned), etc.

I'm in favor of an AA system, I'm also in favor of finding a way to add more content, whether its going beyond SoV, or its some hybrid of old/new content like another thread suggested (adding the PoP zones off of existing zones and eliminating PoK? sounds good here), we're going to need something eventually, otherwise the high end will die out.
