Just out of curiosity. Why is it that you and this "old tmo" faction were against the merge? Wasn't it the smart move? I'd be fucking happy if my guild went from struggling one week, to absorbing half the competition and crushing everyone a week later.

Before the merge, when FE was still deciding what to do, I was asked which guild I'd rather join. And I said IB. I wanted to beat TMO while I was in FE. It's the only reason I played, tracked, responded to batphones or did anything. I put it behind me the moment my guild decided to merge with them, because it was never personal, it was just competition. I can't even fathom how you guys could be so upset with the prospect of getting a huge influx of motivated raiders, while dealing a huge blow to your competition at the same time. Was it personal? Did you hate us for taking mobs from you? Did TMO need to be some exclusive club, even if it meant dying right before Velious? I'm genuinely interested in understanding your mindset. How were we different from any other app except that we came over in bulk?

Not going to lie; I had some personal enemies in TMO. Most of them are gone or were willing to put any differences we had from the past behind us, though. Being in TMO has been a lot of fun; specifically after IB disrespected those of us in FE. I love the fact that they decided to big league FE and are now getting anally fisted for it.


Not much for me to say though in terms of what fountree is harping on. I've always been good buds with you fount, kind of disappointed we never really got to share a guild tag. Hope everything works out for you in the end.

He said he's selling it for plat, it's not RMT if it's real life shit for platinum, just the other way around


Why does Rellapse have Eccezan's phone number to give to you is really the question I'm asking

wut?

Fountree. I spent countless hours with you and Tortue in Howling stones, while you two were TMOs. It was a blast, crawling that place. Great Loot, challenging situations, fun had by all. You were a cool dude, down for whatever, roll with the punches when it all went to shit.

What happened man? All I see now is a guy so addicted to pixels, he would sell out his beloved TMO for them. (I realized you returned the money, I give you major props for that, tough to erase the fact that it would even happen though)

The members you speak of, the ones no longer in TMO, are the ones that abandoned TMO in their time of most desperate need. The guild leader tried to force everyone in the guild to just abandon the server to serve his own ego, rather than try to find the solution that the current leadership did.

And now you are coming after the current leadership for ensuring a strong home for those that remained loyal? The house wouldn't exist without their difficult decisions. And as a result we have new friends, a guild that is more successful than ever, and a wonderful environment to enjoy classic EQ in.

I'm new to the house. I sort of watched the whole thing unfold from a third party point of view. Now being inside the result, I have to say its fantastic. Really fantastic people in regards to talent and personality. I don't even know who was TMO and who was FE really. To me they are all just great guildies, and I know if you would have given the new members half a chance, you would think so too.

Are you so blinded by your loss of status after the merger that you cannot see how good it was for your fellow members, your friends that stayed loyal?

Please man, you are a good dude. Drop the RnF stuff. Just spend some time getting back to the roots of the server, which is enjoying classic Everquest.

Get humble, and come back man. I would love to run with you again, those were good times.

You made five statements. And not one of the them applies to TMO.

[Autotune]

This one time we were spawning splits in VP to wreck other guild's when they tried to enter. I would take all of the good splits from Zeelot when he would kite them too me and keep them trapped in a lava tube where they couldn't hit me.

It was glorious, mostly because Amelinda showed up while we were doing it and he incompetence allowed us to continue while she talked shit.

TMO was always the best guild at taking advantage of game mechanics. I miss that and I just don't think the new TMO has that in them. I suppose they don't need it being on easy street after IB left though.

The consensus I got from this thread is that TMO- We will put up with just about anyone if that means more loot for us. We consider players a "decent" person or "tolerable" if they are putting in tracking hours and we need the live bodies. I didn't know sitting on your ass all day, jav-spamming makes personality. Definitely a new concept for me.

Not to mention what is more important? Keeping a close group of friends and not 100 random people OR absorbing the competition which you talked shit about for months to secure your place in the top and lose touch with the tight core to acquire more pixels for the guild.

Here's the problem, one promotes friendship and integrity. The other promotes being a vast dickhead to get the items you need, being guilded with people that have trained you in the past, leap-frogged and done whatever in the name of competition.

I am all for competition, but I like having a smaller core, close group of friends who are really decent human beings in game and out. Competition isn't inviting 200 members to make sure you have atleast 50 members online at every respawn.

It's like every big bank corporation in the world. They absorb other banks to keep themselves afloat, print more money when they are low, and shit on the rest of the community to make themselves a little bit richer. It is even worse when you have a guild that was so hungry for loot while being in FE, the second they get into the top position, it makes them feel like AoW laying the smack down on TMO.


BTW the print more money thing is just an example of cut-throat tactics. I'm not saying old TMO was not cut-throat, every guild is, but the difference is the original TMO core had worked their way from being a lower class guild to the top position with the same leadership.

Nah, totally off base. Not even close.

FE wasn't loot hungry, the guild always promoted "friendship and integrity" or whatever. We were tight. That's how we made the move to TMO together. Know how many people we lost to IB when we went to TMO? 2 people. One who was MIA and basically in IB on his other toons the whole time anyway. So we lost one person when we made the move pretty much. I think that speaks volumes about how much of a healthy environment FE had. Not to mention surviving that last summer, while basically killing 1 out of 10 spawns, and still showing up to every batphone. That's not hunger for loot, that's loyalty to your guild.

And TMO isn't a bunch of loot hungry robots that hate eachother. Right now I'm in vent with 20 other tmo bullshitting while we all do our own stuff. It's the same social environment as other guilds, probably more than most. Our tracking channel regularly has 25+ people in it. 80% of them aren't tracking, they're hanging out keeping those who are tracking entertained.

You are probably basing your assumptions on what you hear. Maybe we're guilty of hogging all the mobs, or maybe one of our members trained a friend of yours or something. But one thing we're not guilty of is being antisocial and accepting assholes just to field numbers. It's just not the case.

You'll get no counterpoints. I'm not getting sucked into another argument with random anon IB or BDA retard. My original points are all still solid and I stand by them. Perhaps my newest post will enlighten you. As it was likely posted while you were composing this "gem."

I got my name in a thread title!
