Turning (member of Inglorious Bastards)

[Tananthalas]

I am xping and farming much needed cash in OOT off of the Seafuries. I pull a mob with my 1st level nuke so my pet can take aggro when I finish bringing it back to the beach. turning nukes the mob and starts to run back and the Cyclops follows him. I sighed heavily as this is a fairly common occurrence. But then he turns around and brings it back for me to peel off of him. This is the first time since I have been on that island (about 3 days in total) that happened. Stand up guy and I wanted to let him know it meant a lot to me. So thanks again Turning.

Shout out ! :)

[audacity]

I HEARD IB were a bunch of pricks and so on...but every time I come in contact with one its usually an enjoyable experience. I've gotten a few ports for free for CR, even had one save me @ the WC rings when I had about a billion dervs on me when I was lvl 15ish.

Don't recall the names, but I know Girth from Torvonnilous, who was a great monk, and a pretty decent dude too.

[oldhead]

I've seen IB members be dicks... but much much less than other guilds and unlike most of the other guilds i've seen more positive than negative coming from IB.

Just my personal exp.

[Lazortag]

Turning mobilizes really quickly on seafuries so he's bound to get caught up in some drama. Like my Bard was one casting bubble away from doting a seafury and he nuked it. Lots of close calls like that happen with seafuries and it's good that he can see when he's not actually the first to engage.

Why thanks! When I first decided to raid high-end on here, I had a choice of 2 guilds full of jerks, or so the forums would have had me believe. I was pleasantly surprised to find otherwise.

[Ponden]

We are quite nice. I have had way more trouble with others guilds than I did with IB(before I joined them). Girth is also a beast.

Not only a good guy.. but hands down one of the best mages I've played with on live and P99..

IB members in regular xp zones generally aren't dicks, catch them on a raid spawn or clearing sky against another guild and you'll quickly see shit go downhill like a landslide.

Those nice members that helped you out will quickly become cutthroat in a raid situation. I've never seen an IB member come up to Abacab and go "Hey want this Dracoliche?" sure they do ut with pissant seafuries but only reception I've gotten from IB in a raid zone has been consistent /ooc spam of personal insults, R&F drama over plane of hate, trains, and /petitions in an attempt to banhammer their competition.

Dont confuse being nice and courteous with a lack of competitiveness here abacab. In every day play scenario we are nice and friendly, there is no reason not to be.
Conversely though, in a raid situation you are either in IB or against IB, and IB is not in the business of handing anyone a raid target. Why would we? the whole concept seems kind of counterproductive tbh.

This made a lot less sense to me until I realized that the player's name was "turning" :D

Well we did give WI that naggy even after they failed to answer role call. I thought that was pretty stand up of us, even though probably half our raid or more wanted to take it.

Abacab, you really don't deserve an opinion about others being dicks or not in game. You are quite possibly the biggest asshole this server has seen, at least in game. :p

On a lighter note, this is how we pump ourselves up for raids:

[Jeah]

For all the circle jerking in this thread I feel this should be emphasized. Abacab, despite being worse probably, does have a point. I feel I should say though that this goes for a few guilds on this server, but I've definitely seen both sides.

[audacity]

You mean IB wants to kill raid targets, with most of them being lvl 50? Who woulda thought?

[M.Bison]

Truly shocking

Bastards...err Basterds!

I think we probably do have more active raid members than any guild on the server. I don't know if that really qualifies us as a "zerg force."

It's not like we are graveyard rushing raid targets with 100 players in fine plate armor. The word "zerg" implies that we have a metric ass-ton of players with no skill or gear :o. If you sneak a peak at our raid force you will notice a very regular group of players. I think most our players are both geared and skilled. I'm an exception being as I'm new to raiding on my monk. I'm not trying to rant. I just respectfully disagree with the label that i see floating around is all.

So what do you call it when 50 people in the same guild wipe on a Fear break in? Or on draco?

[Wurli]

If you are referring to the draco wipe yesterday where we had 20 mobs trained into our pull path then i would call that an inevitable wipe. I'm not sure what break-in wipe you are referring to but sometimes you get more mobs that you can handle for various reasons. All raiding guilds wipe from time to time. The game would be pretty boring if you didn't

I'd be making excuses too if I had 50+ in my raid and we wiped on break-in, on draco, and before attempting CT. :p

[Lyrik]

Why do you care?

[girth]

I was just helping him out since he wanted to hijack this thread and make it about DA.

[Noser]

Just responding to what Pheer said. Not my intention to derail the thread. Anyways, I said what i wanted to say. Sorry it wasn't in a more appropriate thread. I defended my guild and if that makes me a bad guy then that's fine by me :p

In response to earlier posts i would agree that there are many nice members in IB. It's just too bad that competing raid guilds can't get along without slinging mud and making nasty generalizations.

Anyways, leaving the thread. G'luck to ya'll~

This kind of just pointed out how much superiority complex you guys have. Not a very good sell point, but whatever.

Since this is server chat, let me point something i found oddly weird. From the last week or so IB seems to have replenished there forces, and recently the server went down.

Now this server reset wasnt those regular reroll server backup systems that happen in the past where all the timers remained the same. This reset was like on live where all the timers reset and all bosses repopped.

I found it abit too convienient to go down around now, do i see some kind of GM conspiracy to give IB a chance to resurrent? Maybe.

In the end though, most the server know how you assholes operate. Only a matter of time before the second split happens. Good luck with the propaganda on trying to make yourself look good again.

So we're clear, you're suggesting the database crashing and creating a ton of work for the server staff at a peak time over the weekend was actually an elaborate plan to boost the morale of IB by giving IB an unfair advantage to get mobs which otherwise would have gone to DA?

Your ideas intrigue me and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

Fine lets play this game, forum been boring recently anyways. First off i didnt say anything about unfair advantage, but yes it is a way for them to boost the morale due to previous history with the guild splitting and getting a bunch of new members.

In terms of alot of work, "Don't worry we have redundancy, all the data is fine" , even had time to toss in a patch.

Think about it for a moment. Surely they have multiple systems or a RAID settup of some kind that collects and save it somewhere else? Strangely the test server would be running the exact scripts and timers the live p99 server going off? Now why would everything reset this time and not the others. Hell did he even need to reroll the server? WTB Bonus XP x2 days again if so.

No it was a standard server down and patch, but all timers reset. Just added in the database crash thing to make it more justified. deeerrrrr

An entire database being crashed means you would have to restart everything... Just because the data is safe doesnt mean you dont have to fully restart apache and get the DB running again.

God man you need to find something to do other than think up retarded conspiracies that insinuate the devs/gms/guides are working with IB to help them get boss mobs

LOL REDIC

[girth]

resurrent?

http://oi56.tinypic.com/25uhdoj.jpg

You know what I find 'oddly weird'? Your English.
If it's just idiots like you that don't like us, I'm okay with that.

And yeah it's not propaganda when people that have nothing to do with the guild make a thread to praise us for not being the assholes in game that misinformed clowns like you accuse us of being...

Also, 5 people leaving the guild isn't a split. We dropped some dead weight and are back in the Nazi killin business.

So I'm just wondering, if all the bosses re-spawn at the same time, how does that help any 1 guild specifically?

You arent doing anything here except making yourself look like a conspiracy-nut and a fool. Atleast pick something new, this is the same shit that was posted back in feb. and march all the time, beating a long-dead horse are we?

Dead horses do not fight back. As a ranger, I say that is a good thing to beat on.

NOSER DOn'T LEAVE THE THREAD I JUST GOT HERE AND I MISS YOU


hey so what is the deal with IB? I hear all this conflicting stuff in the rumor mill from my undisclosed sources and it's affecting whether or not I'm going to make Emo Kids

[Trystych]

I'll put on my tinfoil hat here about the server crash and the timing of it being < 8 hours from IB killing dracoliche and how disadvantageous it was to us, it's a fun game no? To imply that we as a guild, or even individuals in our guild, are able to crash the database to make mobs spawn is completely retarded.

I won't lie and say I didn't really enjoy the crash though. The patch day-esque spawning of raid targets and the rush to get as many as you can was super fun, a small piece of the live experience that has been missing from p99.

[Loke]

It's just too bad that competing raid guilds can't get along without slinging mud and making nasty generalizations.
