P99 Green: Guild Review

[Videri]

I appreciate this post for highlighting several of the positive aspects of <Castle>. Thanks, OP.

However, I urge all readers to take this post with a grain of salt. Here are my quibbles:

•*It is cruel to call someone's guild "dying" or claim that "members like to leave and join <Other Guild>." Some people like to run a guild. It's my hobby too. And it's hard enough to run a guild without someone anonymously claiming your guild is "dying." The courteous thing is to let other people run a guild without attempting to influence people's perceptions of them.

• To call <Force of Will> a casual guild does them a disservice, but to call them "the most 'toxic' guild on the server" is absolutely laughable. They have exceptionally compassionate leadership and have scolded or kicked out members for unacceptable behavior.

• Regarding <Castle> - We're not exactly "casual." "Casual-friendly" is what I've been calling it. And never say never.

Sorry, my wording can be a little off. I apologize for that. I have very good encounters with <Castle> and I never heard anyone complain about them or anything. But on the <Force of Will> comment, I will have to disagree. They are considered toxic by many members of who play on the server. I interviewed a few ex-members and they all stated that they do not want to be in a guild who petition quest and contest targets that they are incapable of doing. Many ex-members often complained after leaving that they will get "tells" from FOW leadership and members that are either toxic or petty. One member in general, stated that he was called a traitor. Again, not my experience but from the words of ex-members of FOW/Venerate/Black Lotus. Also keep in mind, they have the most petitions on the server so far. You might think <Kingdom> would as they have the most interaction with <Seal Team> on raids. But no, FOW likes to play lawyer quest and it's no fun for the server and the volunteer staff. There are some good people in FOW for sure but their leadership can be some of the biggest loot vultures I have ever seen on P99.
