Yeah let's roll up on a server with 80 players and complain about a 40 man guild.

Seriously?

That's a perfectly fine raid force for classic in my experience.

The issue is the total population not their members.

And yes, Nihilum had some absolutely clueless Everquest players in it, aside from the PvP stand point. Here's to enjoying cutting some of those people because I'm sure you were tired of dragging them along.

Did Hughman come back? Lul.

Here's a typical "let's merge/ally vs nihilum" conversation.

Me: We should merge or ally, we could get phat l3wtz and have fun PVP vs nihilum.

Typical_Small_Guild_Leader: I don't like player X in your guild.

Me: Hmm... I'm sure we could hammer that issue out if it hinges on it.

Typical_Small_Guild_Leader: We want loot to be done X and we want a lot of it.

Me: Umm ok...

Typical_Small_Guild_Leader: We also don't like Player Y either, do something about him too.

Me: Right...

Typical_Small_Guild_Leader: Player Z... ya forgot to mention him he's a big issue too.

Me: Ok...

Typical_Small_Guild_Leader: And we're just doing this for X weeks because we are a small group of friends, not looking for anything big we can do stuff on our own soon.

Me: Wow ok quite a list of demands I think we can work through it though.

Typical_Small_Guild_Leader: Actually nevermind we're not interested thanks though.

Merging/Ally is taking the easy way out and it is never permenant.

Create a guild, give it a name that isnt an embarassment, set your recruiting level low (level 30 should be good enough to start), dont PL or give away free items. Show up to help with PVP when they are in a jam. Be consistent and be a role-model for others while treating everyone with respect.

You do that people will naturally gravitate towards you. All those small groups of friends will apply to join you instead of you asking them to merge. Be patient and work at it.

Right now would be PERFECT. Nihilum will not be wasting raid nights clearing fear/hate or CT/Innoruuk with Kunark out. Get on with doing some raids in those zones to get gear for newer players.

It is there for the taking..just have to step up.



***on another note i always liked Heartbrand. He is so aggrevated about Nihilum that he has lost his sensibilities. But Heartbrand does have the ability and desire to lead a guild IF he can just get his head on straight and stop letting the petty drama rule his life.***

k. thts bs. Maelstrom was one of the few guilds that gave away free times and pls to its members and there groups; getting more members. we only fell apart once tmo decided LOLOL WERE GOING TO TRAIN YOU AND TAKE YO RAID OVA. So, to save our tight group of 30-50players from zergfest and ashole-itis.. we merged with another guild. and so its name isnt dragged through the mud, it will not be stated.

i lol'd ^.

Supreme, again. Shut the fuck up, honestly? You're not the Tim Tebow of Pixelbox.

Explain to me what raid is out in current content that you need 60+ players to do. Kinda pathetic that people had to start quitting the server before Walmart decided to do something about it's members. Because last night in /ooc it was "we're winning, everyones jealous. be like us, do what we did and you can win to!"

No one wants to do what you do. We log on to have fun, and PvE enough to stand a chance when we go PvP. You admitted you came to this server because there was 0 competition, "it's drama free" lol its not supposed to be, supposed to be lots of drama, and fighting, and chaos, and trains, and QQs, and /petition threats, and /ooc shittalk, and screenshot threads and fraps videos.. but at the end of the day it's what we signed up for playing here. You've taken every measure to suppress, and prevent any of that with how you and mgmt handle your guild.

Won't even discuss why a casual player here will never see lvl 20, that's entirely the servers fault. Rolled a lil wizzy and have been hanging around CB leveling etc.. Monday night i grouped with 2 people who rolled there that night, and quit that night, because the XP sucks still, and considering youre likely going to be soloing until you can find Unrest / MM groups with twinks, not a lot of reason to put in work. Because they're new, they dont know theyll have a pop base to jump into 20+, and as usual the box pop is so cliquey. VV gets TROLLOLOLOLOLOLED for accepting anyone, but what the fuck, sorry for giving noobs a chance, a GC to read, and a few people to help them out when they need it? Instead of being called a faggot by Casey in /ooc when they ask for help on a CR

That would probably make people respect your faggot ass more.

I will say this. The bond that holds players together in the pursuit of pixels is much stronger than the bond that holds them together for PVP and people would do well to realize that. You can love PVP and pursue it while still raiding and gathering pixels. Abandoning the almighty pixel as a guild motto / belief is a huge mistake, and has put nihilum in the position of dominance that they are in today.

Dragons stuck in ceilings and something else I can't talk about did that HB.

The ones with "skill" would be largely banned if it wasn't for a certain someone.
