ForumQuest at an all time low

i'll never forget the day you amassed 130 people in KC and lost to 80 of us, even though you got 40 kills in a row from desynch right off the bat

Was even numbers, and most were OOR, every guild was in their own teamspeak.

But you gotta cling to whatever you can, when the alternative is to discussing your PVE addiction.

Why did you immediate give up after that loss? Clearly you identified some easy to address issues. If you guys had instead redoubled your efforts on leveling, found a way to unify your communications and pressed on maybe you'd have your dream server of multiple guilds competing. Empire didn't just immediately emerge as the top guild the second Nihilum was disbanded - it took months.

The biggest issue this server has had with competition is that a weeks worth of losing has always equaled the losing side giving up. Even Nihilum did this when Nizzar took his D3 break, content to just log out until he came back aside from some of the hardcores.

anti zerg/red guilds have a history of logging 50 people on at 4am on a weekend for uncontested venril sathir's 12 hours after the #1 guild is disbanded

yeah, it's so difficult to find one of Colgate's million posts making fun of people raiding Kunark religiously back when Nizzar wouldn't let him do it.

thanks for the excuse

All of it has a trickle down effect. True competition would have meant more time and energy spent over high priority targets, opening up more things for smaller guilds to try. True competition has a pretty short expiration date due to the amount of people who take the path of least resistance, but if it could have dragged out a few months the effect on the server would have been enormous. Plus by then Velious would have been much more real, and even the side losing ground would have had ample opportunity to reverse their fortune.

50vs50 pvp does pretty much blow, but it was the only away to accomplish what you wanted the server to be. No amount of simulated repops would have changed that.
