R99 is pretty much a blue rmt server run by empire. No interest in being tagged in the guild. Since GG disbanded they absorbed 20+ of their geared 60s. Server is a joke [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I want to believe.

Had I gotten a SoW sword I would have no problem supporting the RMT council in Empire, and because I did get gear in Nihilum, I will not only overlook the RMT there but I will actually defend their integrity.

After the stream gong and I were on we chatted in Skype with sirken for a few hours. During which Sirken looked up how many toons were guilded in GG and Empire. GG (the entire server over lvl 40 minus Slosh) had 20 more tagged toons.

No matter which way you slice that pie Empire still has half of it. That leaves exactly zero room for small guilds/up and coming guilds AND competition for Empire. This necessitates anyone who would challenge them inviting the entire server to join, including the 30 or so off limits players.

R99 is what empire made it.

So I'm just here to have some fun with my pals. GG Empire.

Nothing to do with your choice to bring all your freshie pals under the cloaks of scumbags who shit all over them then disbanded?

If I didn't go with them then half would have gone without me anyway.

What happened in Fresh was a completely predictable reaction to a chain of events starting with Maxs forum quest, resulting in highly focused Empire grief and culminating in the Alliance.

I, of course, have some regrets but ultimately I don't feel I was capable of changing the outcome much.

First they tell Empire to 'recruit and contest', then they tell empire not to 'recruit'. Poor Empire.

You idiots literally cant be griefed in Velious if you stay out of like 4 zones during certain times.

All of kunark is open, all of VP, and like 90% of velious.

<Casual Scum> gonna be going hard in the snow. That was past tense.

Still doesn't fix the fact that Empire is half of the active 60s. I'm not worried about Empire though, got a guild to gear up. Looking forward to smaller skirmishes.
