What happened to all of the guilds on Blue, and what is Fuse?

Why did they move on?

Vanquish was absolutely smashing Riot. Arcler was in chats claiming Riot was getting 95% of raid targets, but he was holding things together with lies.

Then they somehow got GMs to implement Riot friendly raid rules that were confusing and contradictory. Guilds had to track things themselves, and that made it more confusing.

That killed the momentum. The thrill seekers moved on to other things for their dopamine fix.

Then the schisms came. Splinter guilds like Gravity and Get Off My Lawn were formed.

And the funny thing is, during any of this time or during the period where Vanquish was a shadow of its former self, I never would have considered Kittens as the #2 guild on this server. That's just hilarious. A guild surviving on an average of about one raid mob per quake would never qualify as #2.

Just admit that you guys are bad for the server and don't give a shit.

It's worth pointing out that, from memory, only one guild openly sought to Vanquish another, not giving a shit about the server rules or community.

Grats on assuming the worst in others though, without evidence, even after those misperceptions have been challenged.

Why did RIOT do it?

Because why would you ever turn down adding a group of very experienced raiders who have experience leading in the raid scene? The more people who have done some of the more complex strats the better it is for your raid team...and now you have backup people who can help lead things in a pinch if the main Riot raid leaders were for some reason unavailable.

The last time I saw you adjacent to the raid scene you were training ice burrowers on Scout and then cussing us out in /ooc.

Jute lobbied to bring the Draft to p99. It’s been a positive influence on the server. You were in Vanquish, whose leader threatened to punch his own guildies teeth in. Let’s not clutch our pearls and virtue signal about server health.

The only thing I've ever witnessed kittens leaders do well, Juicebox included, was act like insufferable pricks in the UN and then devolve into crybabies when somebody returned their aggression. Reminds me of having a baby brother.

Oh, and there was that time he designated raid loot to himself on a server koi raid. That was fucked.

How long are the Fuse pixel lines? Wouldn't it be better for a new raid scene arrival to go to a Sanctum guild at this point?

Like for an abashi? Maybe a year of regular raiding because of drop rate. It depends what your after. A lot of BIS items are not nearly as long of a wait like maybe a quake worth of DKP.


But some of us just enjoy logging in and raiding with each other. Arthion has like 10x DKP of the next highest person because he never buys anything and when he does it’s usually droppables for guild events. Personally, I would be raiding with Fuse/Riot if they were the number 10 guild because I’ve been raiding with the same people for 10+ years since Taken through the times we were beating TMO on like 1 target every few weeks.

The crazy thing is Fuse is still recruiting! I talked to a guy that was in one of the Sanctum guilds, and they told him to leave and join Fuse. They said he could get all the gear he wants in a year or so and then leave to join another guild. Why not close recruiting? Why are you still trying destroy every other guild on the server?

Most of our recruits are people that were Riot / Kittens that missed the deadline.

Blah blah blah blah. Jeez, it's so insufferable. You challenged my understanding of the situation just like a piece of paper challenges a hurricane. You guys combined out of cowardice. You are bringing the LARGEST raid responses at a time when the server is at its smallest. GMs literally changed the meta because you were killing the raid scene on the server with the move. It was anticompetitive and pathetic.

"But some of us just enjoy logging in and raiding with each other."

Who though? Do you know the 140 people showing up to afk for DKP? Make a guild with those people you like. That's why I am in Gravity and not Fuse. I am playing with people I like that I have played with for years now. If we merged into Fuse, I would leave, and probably join TSS.
