It might not be a popular opinion with the vocal minority on the boards, but Nihilum has a lot to do with why many of these players are sticking around. The app requirements are almost nil, you instantly become non KOS to 80% of the 50+ scene and it's your only realistic chance at end game pixels. There just aren't a lot of folks who are interested in hitting the raid scene in bronze and having to scrape and claw for enough platinum to buy even mediocre droppable items and never see a VP dragon or high end loot from Kunark. All the while having their exp/loot farming groups snuffed out of existence by the better geared majority.

You can call these guys names, say they are pussy blubie sellouts, say they're ruining the server by joining the zerg...but all that does is fuel their drive to app to Nihilum. For a huge amount of these newer players there are two options: Nihilum or quit.

TLDR: Let's worry about a viable 2nd option before we worry about a viable 3rd one?

pretty much why this server is "broken" and cannot be fixed without some sort of mass blue copy transplant. broken doesnt mean it cant be fun fyi, just saying this server will never be able to support another guild at this point.

Changed the last sentence to TLDR for you.

thx m8

[Colgate]

the only solution is obviously just to wipe the box

[Not Salem]

Wipe for sure

[Kergan]

300+ sustained population is what we need to make the waiting list so long for loot in Nihilum that another guild will break off. If a wipe does this then whatever, fuck it.

This is how things happen naturally when they aren't forced. Once making a new guild is a path for quicker progression for the less tenured members of the number 1 guild a new guild is created. Population is key and unfortunately not too much can be done about that.

lot of truth to this, which is why I advocate for blue copies, the only way to get the pop potentially to 300+ consistently.
