funny how they dont merge

You can make shit up, but it doesn't make your position better. Force rejected the idea of merging with Azrael, but don't say it wasn't put on the table. You tried to absorb force and you failed, there's hope for them still.

My bad, I always confuse you and Andis. All halflings look alike to me.

all good, outside VV and the beginning of the server, red has always been boring for me. i hate to sound like a broken record but ffa pvp is the most bland thing there is. its like half life/quake ffa deathmatches. boring as fuck. throw some teams in there and things get interesting.

This is my first post on these forums so take it as you will (and probably last because I really do not like to get involved in these kinds of things, makes the game less enjoyable).

Let me start off with a little story from a game called Meridian59. There were two big sides on that game with a base of about 100 players on the server between the neutrals,and pvpers. The game got so lop sided that no one was logging on, and everyone began to quit the game. So I decided, being one of the leaders, to start a friendly war that involved EVERYONE. We rolled up two team captians and had a list of everyone that wanted to be involved in it. Based on how good you were at pvp we made the teams EVEN as possible. Take in note that I was enemies with about 70% of the server for 8+ years. Hatred between us was huge and that is what fueled so many of us playing for so long on this old shitty game but the was pvp was so enjoyable. When you got a kill you felt good.

So here we are all talking in ventrillo. I am talking about people that hate each other for 8+ years ACTUALLY being civil to each other. Talking to each other as normal adults and we made a list. It took me and 5 other players to get together for 5nights in a row to make the teams. This was no easy task BUT everyone put their differences aside to get the best maximum enjoyment out of the game for pvp, because that was why we were there.

I was guilded with enemies, friends and new players that I've never met before and leading them into battle to do the best we can AGAINST my friends of 10+years and also enemies and neutrals. It was by far the most fun I've ever had playing Meridian59. The Teams were even, the fights were long and holy hell the talk after the fights were even more enoyable. We'd get together and talk to each other in vent saying what we did (like a bunch of nerds) and who did this to me, who blinded who, who debuffed who and was fun. It lasted for quite sometime until more jobs kicked in for people, and others went off to the Military etc etc.

The point of my story was to explain that the TEAMS need to be fair and even for everyone to get the best out of the game. My side came to this server 3-4months ago and we are doing our best to even the playing fields but Everquest is a different game than Meridian.. In meridian59 gear doesnt matter that much while in EQ it does.

I suggest we do the same thing here... Get two team captians from both sides and see how it goes. Everyone that wants to be involved in better sportsmanship, better pvp and better pve would sign up and draft teams from this. If you side with the people you hate the most, who knows maybe you will become friends because after all this is JUST a game.

I know this is probably far fetched because people don't want to lose what they had before, but this might be one step towards the right direction in making this game more enjoyable for not only Azrael, but Nihilum members that crave more than just PvE out of this game.

they outnumbered you with they put 3 guilds together. funny how they dont merge, oh thats right because they dont want to form a super zerg guild. variety makes the server fun. temporary alliances just to compete with the numbers of one guild, sad this even has to happen.

Its pointless even replying Sam. Elderan has beaten the whole Azrael had 50 members things into the ground even though like you say it was three-four guilds under three seperate tags just trying to fight the 30-35 (or as Elderan puts it 18) Nilly for a first time raid mob kill. Then Nizzarr signing bonuses, real life, warm weather, and suddenly it's back to 40+ man Nilly raids and random groups for opposition.

I like PvE, I like (and am not good at but enjoyed learning and getting better at) PvP. I like a lot of the Azrael people, including Lite, Andis, Kringe (I like his no nonsense attitude), Agatha and list goes on. I wish I had more playtime but I don't. I never wanted to join Nihilum, it's more fun being underdog and I'd rather quit than join Nilly(regardless of how many shenanigans go on between you all). Also not sure what TS you're talking about, I usually just talk with Boats about baseball or how bad he is at every class he plays.

this is exactly how i feel bro. shits fun when you arent expected to win but to see new player after new players youve helped join nilly, its really gets discouraging.

[Vile]

HB try this for a month... get all of Nilly at your next 40+ pop raid...

Pick captains, and form Nilly A and Nilly B.

Go against each other, fight over mobs, pixels, all that fun shit.. and see whats good after 30 days. In the end if you guys don't have any fun.. go back to 1 guild tag.

Let me hit you with some knowledge, gangsters.

When I first rolled a character on red, my warrior, the population during my then timezone, U.K, was under 15 people. I had read the forums and had my mind set on joining Nihilum as they were essentially the only guild. However, within seconds of entering Gfay a hobbit druid called Samwise flew into my vision and tagged me Vae Victus.
By the day this noble hobbit added more people to his family. VV grew and there was a somewhat friendly rivalry with nihi even though nothing was contested. many nihi actually would send tells encouraging us to keep levelling and stick it out.
Then what occurred is uncalled for griefing by who i refer to as the nihi shit squad. members like Northwest would spend hours training a low 40's xp group in Sol B. as we approached the 50 lvl cap suddenly it became a server of 6v1 ganks and trains. the kunark launch day is a great example of this (i think even zereh pvp'd on this day heehuhehe) Bear in mind that this was ganks vs mostly new players with no prior negative history with nihi members
i rerolled a cleric and nizzar asked me to join nihi twice. why? red dawn were no competition. why try steal one of the opposite guilds only clerics? i politely refused.

nihi want no competition unless its competition they feel very safe against.

Server is what it is and the community as a whole has a very negative aggressive mindset.
I just thank the lord Jesus Christ our savior that i found true happiness with my great pals chewie etc

props out to my flowers pals

hi mom

flowers represent, what!

#1 Christian straight edge guild

i dont want to troll you honestly. you seem like a level headed person. i blame the player base as much as i do nilly. new players are too weak and impatient to build something new so they flock to nilly where they dont have to work for shit. its the WoW generation of gamers man. pathetic.
