TLDR Brainstorming Red99's future and why Red is not Blue

[Nirgon]

Try not to hate anyone to the point they're more important than keeping recently banned cancer down if they try to come back.

The people who didn't make a name for themselves are probably homeless. I mean you get pressure from the community, other guild members, if you didn't help vs Nihi by the time they were gone I doubt you'll get an invite.

Hokuten was a tool to beat Nihi, it said in the guild charter, they got help from Azrael taking down weak raid content while we contended with high raid content.

It wasn't really a scam, and people should have known what they were signing up for. Those that made a good impression didn't really get hung to dry.

i don't know how else to say everyone cried about nihilum raiding uncontested at 8 AM and now they're doing THE EXACT SAME THING

I don't have the biggest problem with the Azrael pals bearding PD for a while after fighting the zerg so long [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

Lot of em showed up to contest for a long time with nothing to show. That's not a troll or meant to be a knock of any kind. It's true, a lot of thankless effort was put in to stop the sleepless real pixel transaction machine and they surely deserve some pixel shower.

ya if you try to tell me there aren't people in azrael who would do the same that's insanity

it happened for almost 2 months with 0 signs of slowing down(our numbers only got larger and larger actually)

why do you think i left to make holocaust with no hesitation? i have 0 interest in uncontested pixel farming

I've spoke with long TLDR diaries about how this would play out and Lite would be the new Nizzar, I don't really need to repeat.

I think you're good for the box Colgate, that we agree on pal - hopefully we don't just fill the zerg shoes and turn into Nihi.

If we do I am almost certain it would repeat a third time if I left and did something different and would probably just be apathetic.

How things could have gone:

Hokuten, Azrael, Mafia, Holocaust, God's Work, possible 6th guild all field 15-20 man forces. Battles constantly, every mob and zone contested depending on the time of day.

How things did go:

Hokuten leader disbands guild, takes the top 30-40% of the guild and joins Azrael. Holocaust/Mafia/God's Work field 5-10 during most peak times, maybe an occasional spike to around 15. Homeless Hokuten join a few random crews, quit or stay unguilded. 30 man Azrael raid while historically not a ton of people for a raid crew becomes at least double what any other guild can field so contesting not possible.

Because of this, instead of repop timers shifting to a prime time/high population period during the day when that is the only time when any guild can field enough players to clear it, Azrael keeps clearing it early Sunday morning.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

looks like it's headed in that direction tbh
