<Tempest> Now Recruiting

Reported this for trolling.

can you provide me with some examples, i'm almost certain this is slander.

[Videri]

Time to return to the topic of <Tempest> recruitment. Members and non-members, feel free to post whatever else in another thread. Let's make this a good guild thread.
Uuruk has been banned again for spamming this thread (thank you, moderators).

Dain didn't die but in the end Friends brought even numbers and we won an Aon and fearsome shield. Pixels still drop for us every single day. Pras Tempest and grats Bile and Sciddles.

[Redi]

lol this mod is a joke spending his time deleting legit post from your guys thread

good luck

[AzzarTheGod]

Asking a direct question about a guild policy with actual data included in the post to back it up (Tabula rasa) touched a nerve with somebody apparently. Real head scratcher.

And by the few responses that were offered before the delete, i.e. sickpuppy is an officer under tabula rasa, I gathered that tabula rasa may not be a real thing after all? The mod is likely in agreement that tabula rasa is itself a troll and forum propaganda designed to fuel up morale in <Tempest> ranks. This would be a pretty big assumption as responses re: tabula rasa were just beginning to file in. sickpuppy was cited, but that's not the best example. There may have been other examples but the discussion was stifled while posts like "faggot this, faggot that" were allowed to remain in the thread.

And why should staff intervene on a recruitment question when hard questions are being asked asked and not when someone is posting slurs and bullshit posts over and over? Again, I scratch my head.

So again I will ask, and with extreme specificity this time.

Has anyone outside of <Azrael>/<Friends> family and extended family <Gods Work> been granted tabula rasa? I don't think I need to explain why this is a relevant recruitment question.

That's right. I am still here asking the hard questions about your recruitment policies which were offered up by, and posted by <Tempest> leadership on this very forum.

[Ragnaros]

you care too much dude seek help seriously

[Viscian]

PRAS Tempest! Red Saviors!

[Videri]

Has anyone outside of <Azrael>/<Friends> family and extended family <Gods Work> been granted tabula rasa? I don't think I need to explain why this is a relevant recruitment question.

Yes: <Tempest> has invited ex-<Empire> members, including Farzo, Deetz, Glowers/Choopa, Mobster, Speeddsz, and many more (and I've been enjoying my time with them, by the way). Tabula Rasa means we're giving people who want to contribute to this guild a chance to prove themselves. Does that answer your question?

[Colgate]

i was not allowed in on the principle of tabula rasa

[Videri]

i was not allowed in on the principle of tabula rasa

Sorry, toothboy, you were actively opposing the guild in-game at the time. Obviously you had no intent to join. Glad we could clear this up.

Back to <Tempest> recruitment! If you want to join and contribute, talk to us in-game!

[Colgate]

i guess you don't know what tabula rasa even means

[Videri]

Answered ATG's nerdy question and tried to break it to brush-head that he's not getting in. Further posting is trolling a guild thread. The storm rolls on!

yea, dkp is going lol. its so very clear where an item is going when a player has more dkp then another, and the others want to spend dkp on various multiple items whereas I am well geared from empire and can afford to spend dkp on a higher value item.

thats how dkp works!

Basically if you have no Job and can raid p99 like when you lived with mom at 14 you get loot.

To the haters, make your own guild and do something about it. If not stop trolling this thread.

To players interested in joining. You put in the work you will get rewarded. Empire used LC and abused it bad. We use a dkp system. Put in the time, get the loot,simple as that.

[silo32]

if I told you the truth you would be in denial and mace me

@ sektors

I can smell a weasel

fool me once

[Colgate]

actually our loot council rewarded people who "put in the work" in a higher proportion than those who didn't "put in the work"

the largest flaw with a DKP system is that it rewards people who "put in the work" in an equal amount to those who "don't put in the work"

loot council = glorious capitalism
dkp = filthy communism

[HippoNipple]

DKP promotes putting gear on shit alts, people afking in walls, retards wasting loot on crap classes that delays guild progression, etc.

The only reason DKP is more favorable is if you have officers and leaders you can't trust. The only downside is if you have DKP with officers and leaders you can't trust they are also the ones in control of the DKP. If you have to rely on DKP because you can't trust them, odds are they are cheating the system anyways, assigning extra DKP to people, making fake raids up on a whim, etc.

DKP is a system that helps casuals feel secure but in this guilds case it is cheating and manipulating them. Only people benefiting are hardcore players and people like $ektors.

I hope this helps.

Oof

[heartbrand]

I think DKP works great in a game like EQ with an incredibly low skill bar and almost no gear checks on any progression other than how many bodies you can bring. If people are truly "afk in walls" collecting dkp and buying top shelf items, then the problem isn't dkp but rather the guild that allows those people to be tagged.

Tempest isn't hitting walls because someone's monk alt has a dain belt, but rather because of the sheer number requirement the top targets require. The dirty secret is plus hp and stat gear is rather meaningless in pve for non tanks. The only items that matter are your weapons and your clerics mana pool, and even the mana pool becomes irrelevant depending on numbers. Arguing about the best way to award a shiny metallic gloves is laughable.

This isn't WoW where each ilvl upgrade is a tangible increase to your raids DPS. We killed vulak with 90 kunark geared players, and could have prolly done it with 55. It's about class composition and numbers. The items don't really matter. They are a participation trophy to adorn your character with and feel as though you accomplished something.

Rant over

[Colgate]

the items matter in making encounters possible with fewer people or with more ease

[heartbrand]

I'd argue the vast majority of items provide little to no meaningful pve raid advantage. stats can easily be capped with buffs and quest gear, hp and AC is basically meaningless other than for the tank with the exception of AoE Dragons which can mostly be dodged anyway, mana pool is rather meaningless outside of clerics and even then rarely comes into play. even tank items are somewhat irrelevant depending upon the size of your cleric chain. You're left with weapons which typically end up being the easiest items to distribute because they are class restricted and everyone ends up getting what they need fairly quickly. Everything else just ends up making your character seem better with resists and stats that ultimately make no difference to your raids success or failure. In other MMO's, every item upgrade is a tangible increase to your dps or hps, but that's not the case in EQ.

One rogue epic would be a bigger upgrade for a rogues raid utility than full BiS non weapon slots.

[FAPhoenix]

Siepher has zero attendance and zero loot. Dkp must be working fine. Either that or Strut is doing a terrible job stealing me loot. In fact, this will come up next time I see him. I mean, if DKP is for corrupt leaders I should be getting something...

[Colgate]

fights were substantially easier in our later raids than starting raids due to shoveling gear onto warriors and monks

clerics having higher mana pools helped really only on high mana intensive fights like vyemm, aow, yelinak, but they certainly allowed us to get by with fewer clerics in chain once people really started burning out

[FAPhoenix]

Why monks over rogues (assuming the gear could be used by them)?

[Colgate]

initially the idea was to help pulling back when we were doing straight up crawls through ToV, but eventually because our monks started backup tanking, if a warrior unexpectedly died, and rampage tanking

I bet no one 100% afks during the entire raid. THey afk until the mobs is about to come in. if you boot the chronic afks then when the mob comes in you wont have enough heals dps or tanks.

Raids seem to kind of fall on the shoulders of a few people leading the raid and a few classes to make it happen. On a server that doesnt have a surplus of people or any particular class then you have to kind of take what you can get and cant say well just boot those 10 people who afk until the raid mob comes.

If empire did straight dkp I feel like the 4 main warriors would have gotten less gear and we would not have killed as many mobs/progressed as we did but I could be wrong. I know vymm gave us trouble until we got like 3 tanks decently geared.

You also have people offering different levels of contribution to a guild. If the loot counsel is pretty fair I think thats the best way to go while tracking attendance. You have some monks who do all the pulling and some monks who just want to FD until the mob gets there. Warrior is a pretty easy job but there were good amount through out empire that just didnt know stuff. I was not perfect by any means but we had warriors not hit defensive, or pull the raid mob onto the healers, some warriors never got mallets and always needed to be handed them. Rogs, gaping pretty much always topped the dps charts and never got aggro then we had Anime with like 100% RA dieing to every mob because he never evaded. So if that vulak dagger drops who would you want to to give it to?

Just my opinion. I definitely did better off with LC/RA vs straight DKP so I am baised

[Uuruk]

we all know my pet was the MVP

Yes it was. Good times.

Wait according to everyone i should be super salty you removed me from an elf sim guild.

[Smedy]

I bet no one 100% afks during the entire raid.

i bet you haven't raided with me

[Buhbuh]

ya except empire harbored even the truly afk/ worthless on raids, too

sort of depends on what you value more. i'd frankly rather struggle to do content with lower numbers than have no standards and allow any dipshit into the guild

i even said to officers day 1 of holocaust that if any of the questionables (particularly retti and tity) or future questionables got in my way, at any time, ever, that they'd be gone in a heartbeat

still follow that principle

[Lasher]

yeah true

[syztem]

Don't worry, if certain people feel you didn't contribute enough on a raid or a boss you won't find yourself added to the dkp for that kill. Even if you go to another to get it fixed with proof you were there, it gets removed again.

You are right with all the mechanics but you have to take care of the few players that actually make things happen. There will be 5-10 guys that actually make a guild what it is. If they keep busting their ass and no names are getting loot shit unravels like it did with Agatha/Jupe. The officers/leaders couldn't figure out how to keep them happy without allowing them to be corrupt. It shouldn't be that tough to make them feel appreciated without having to actually trust them.

I guess you just gotta have a balance of keeping the casuals and the hardcore players happy. I would think a priority would be keeping the hard core players happy since there is only one guild and casuals have no where else to go. If the population was 400 and two competing guilds were fighting for 75+ members logged in at once keeping casuals happy might make more sense.

[EatitNerd]

Heartbrand also thought AoW could be killed with like 75 people and a kunark geared tank, man he was wrong then and he's wrong now, vulak is easy as fuck, mobs like vyemm/aow require the gear, even with 90 people, so of course it matters even more with 50-60 like tempest has, therefore LC >> DKP. Also Sithen is a fucking retard still

[Colgate]

well, you CAN kill AoW with 75 people and even a planar geared warrior

the only thing AoW necessitates is like 10+ clerics, a lot of DPS, several warriors, and the clerics not missing a beat

[Colgate]

the only thing you need is ~5400 hp to survive a full attack round with defensive active, which is obtainable in planar armor

either the CH lands or it doesn't inbetween every attack round, having 6k makes little to no difference if your clerics are fucking up

after that it's about mana loss versus NPC hp loss

i was surprised they were not on your person when you perished in fear this evening

i think they might edge out coldain skin boots

hp >

[Runya]

They are aite......i never equipped them since i looted the dragon and got smoked after.Then i ran to fear to try and make the raid funner.I took one with me!

[Runya]

Also i made you bros lol....robbed decibel of his pixels....blackhole me a silk robe someone!

[heartbrand]

the only thing you need is ~5400 hp to survive a full attack round with defensive active, which is obtainable in planar armor

either the CH lands or it doesn't inbetween every attack round, having 6k makes little to no difference if your clerics are fucking up

after that it's about mana loss versus NPC hp loss

Almost every AoW wipe we had was due to some sort of cleric fuck up, so gonna agree with Colgate here. The extra hp helps gives you a buffer if there's a fuck up, but even then barely. AoW's attack is also so high that the benefit of AC seems minimal. It's all about the clerics yowl.

[Nirgon]

AoW was even more ridiculous on live because of the pain and suffering bug

If your health too too much of a dip (like a flurry from something awful) you would get hit by pain and suffering and get insta gibbed (I will not be bug reporting this one as a classic mechanic, maybe someone else is immersed enough/in poor mental hygiene and will get to it)

Oh yeah and 10 people almost always going link dead on 70+ player engages

[Runya]

First some tov boots now a velious dragon dagger!! you guys rock! Back to back nights of pixels and im not even in the guild! Pras

[Doctor Jeff]

How much DKP did you spend on that

[Runya]

Who cares my tempest raid attendance prolly higher than some of thier dead weight,bout time the pixels went my way.

[Buhbuh]

Over time people's outrage when you take something away from someone it was awarded to will devolve into,

"Oh yeah, Murda? That happens all the time."

Lol. Murda ninjad the first Vindi head that ended up outside empire, too.

You robbed decibel of pixels but you also robbed someone from paying their electric bill. 2 sides to every story pal.

yea but after like 3 vindi kills we ran out of wood elf druids and didn't really care

[silo32]

You are right with all the mechanics but you have to take care of the few players that actually make things happen. There will be 5-10 guys that actually make a guild what it is. If they keep busting their ass and no names are getting loot shit unravels like it did with Agatha/Jupe. The officers/leaders couldn't figure out how to keep them happy without allowing them to be corrupt. It shouldn't be that tough to make them feel appreciated without having to actually trust them.

I guess you just gotta have a balance of keeping the casuals and the hardcore players happy. I would think a priority would be keeping the hard core players happy since there is only one guild and casuals have no where else to go. If the population was 400 and two competing guilds were fighting for 75+ members logged in at once keeping casuals happy might make more sense.

you are starting to get it

way better put

the sick fucks like me that log in relentlessly even after put on severe loot diets, when people in lead are like "hey bruh I know we have killed tranix 300 times and you have never been "officially" awarded one because its always "hey bro sorry you have nothing better in slot and you have been here 5 years but this guy started last week and were gonna give it to him in hopes he stays with us, we know your sick enough to be abused in this system and keep logging in and were gonna keep fucking you over". THen guy that won crown of king travis quits 1-3 weeks later because there was too much pvp on the bigger raids and they were not on time and kept getting yt and sold there crown on some red guide.

I was going to apply to this guild.

Until I helped Silat kill a WW dragon, he ran off with the loot on his alt, and he enraged Bumblebeetun enough so that he logged out without ressing me.

Yawl can fuck yourselves, I remember why I don't play here anymore.

[Nirgon]

I also extended my hand in friendship and had a similar (but worse) experience

[derpcake]

i just wanted to have some casual fun and it got ruined by pixel-frenzy-vendetta

my ingame-resources are like 0, and my shm is about to lvl back to 59, but I thought i'd help some random folks

sad show tempest

guess there are plenty of potential cruits like me though, so surely this will work out, i mean one of you guys got a +6 tali (on an alt), and all he had to do was piss off a clr guildmate and a shm applicant

Its like what happens when the nerds in high school suddenly become cool because all the footballers transferred out.

[Chaboo_Cleric]

Tempest demonstrates an innate ability to splerg. Not even the Duke himself could lead these sick degenerates to Vulak. Empire, really left the taint to fend for themselves. All I can say is , woah babe wish.

[iiNGloriouS]

Chaboo you're an OK dude but u post some weird shit lol

[Phaezed-Reality]

grats on yeli

[discordkitty]

Tempest can't kill Vulak. They have 75 on raids. Their inability to come to terms with their ineptitude manifests itself in an outburst of emotions over trivial items.

This is the culture their guild leaders have established and it is why they're stuck in a perpetual circle of failure.

Man, when did all these raids I missed that had 75 people happen???

[Nirgon]

Its like what happens when the nerds in high school suddenly become cool because all the footballers transferred out.

I think if you mean by highschool, you mean Empire and by suddenly cool you mean Mornin and Retti broke someone's fragile ego causing a life time of rustle and butter noggin'


sure


Meanwhile I wasn't even online or guild tagged (had a nasty falling out with them myself, u no?) when all that happened and am somehow held accountable



Gongshow put business first and had a true tabula rasa system (see Rag getting 3 invites, although admittedly one was a scumvite), hence success

[Samsung]

You really talking about a Tempest member being perma rustled after you left Empire and freaked out on the forums? Take you're shitty posts out of our guild recruitment thread or Braknar will protect us 8)

[Nirgon]

Well that's exactly it. It seems like we had a similar experience and I was willing to extend my hand in friendship to help and was treated very poorly for no reason after a firm promise of tabula rasa and dkp raiding.

edit: I'm not trolling

Gongshow is level headed and a trustworthy leader. Look at Tempest leaders. They have been abused and tormented at some point in playing on this server if not throughout their entire time here. There is no tabula rasa, the leadership is bitter and biased. I wouldn't expect many in this community to not be the same though. It is rare you are going to get someone level headed that takes the trust and responsibility of guild leadership seriously on here.

[Nirgon]

Tune and Rag seemed fine, but I guess their vote didn't count

Really liked talkin' to Tune, helped me see things from the other side of the arguments going on around here too

[derpcake]

Derpcake I'll rez you bro. I'll talk to the officers about Silat

I ain't mad at him nor casting blame, just plain disappointed with the attitude on the server. He did nothing to offend me, at all, just a shitty turn of events due to greed.

An epic monk with whistling robe that argues with a VP? geared cleric over a trivial item, on a server that has 5 more years of Velious as best prospect?

In my "fuck yes EQ!" mindset, or what remains of it, its harsh to see that kind of shit on this server.

I'm jealous of you and the others that played this when it had a better pop.

Such selective memories around here.

Gongshow got killed off the box never to show his face again until GMs disbanded Nihilum.

He took more loot then anyone in Empire.

He now logs in and burts out in OOC (or gave some dummy access to do so)

Have you ever played here?

1) Gongshow was in Nihilum

3) Gongshow played and fought against Nihilum in classic through at least May-June of 2012.

If you didn't care why did you not grant Garner tabula rasa? Seems like you strongly cared to me.

Specifically, seemed nobody else cared but you.

[Samsung]

Sharknado doesn't owe you or anyone a reason for his decisions. As an outsider of this leadership and knowing and being guilded with aim chat members, Sharknado knows aimchat well enough to know that nobody in that group of players is worth being apart of this guild. Now this isn't coming from Sharknado himself just my view on why leadership doesn't want aimchat around.

That being said, you really have to be a group of shitty players to have Sharknado not wanting anything to do with you. Also if you're in Empire and aren't apart of that group I'm sure Sharknado will give you a shot.

Tldr: aimchat is toxic and players want nothing to do with them.

I think you got your timeline and measures of time mixed up just a smidge.

This



was not





and I never, at any point up to that did *anything* to Cyren or Terp. Ever. Not even once did I go around saying things like "if Cyren isn't bumpin' his gums in TS while we raided, he's snubbing buffing requests". Or I never said "don't trust Terp, he stole from Heartbrand and has a long track record of scumming". Nope. I kept that to myself, I even helped level Constantine and at times played Miley to help with raids and never fucked with those characters once. I never called them out for farming things for themselves and touting that as "doing things for the guild" (most of these things Cyren never actually did but got credit for it anyways). Despite that, in the short time I was in Tempest TS, I heard him say at least twice that he was the only officer that actually did anything in Empire.

I really just let them be and played along and kept my mouth shut when it was obvious they were corrupting Holo/Empire's loot council. However, that can go on for so long before someone says this ain't right and leaves (without taking/stealing/destroying on the way out the day or making HBK/Retti style attacks, love them both). Leaving on those terms shows a lack of honesty by the pixel employer, that is to say, not entirely a lack of stability of the member vs the "dindu nuffins loot council".

I've up until that point coming back to both of them stating I was happy to wipe the record clean and "didn't care anymore"... but they still did. And that's what I came in here "guild discussing", I shared an experience that proves these two hold a grudge forever and I'm not even sure why.

Past "a month ago" (its butter brain o'clock somewhere), I'd be happy to discuss our personal matters outside the guild discussion thread. Interested to know what Terp and Cyren are still doing talking to each other about me though, what in the fuck. Didn't you (Cyren) get to see his true colors when you tried to make a power play on Gongshow by taking another one of his officers and he could only think for himself and abandoned you to have to wait until the sleeper was awakened?

Anyways, I may not be a member of the double robe club (what robe club is Cyren a member of right now, anyone still keeping score) but I'm always willing to bury the hatchet, and I'm certainly "clever enough" to realize you needed some pure melee/tanks and help outside raids with getting people non-raid items, xp and pvp help. Which is exactly what I was doing prior to be scummed despite having nothing to do with Retti/Mornin taking Cyren's ego to the cleaners... which was actually months ago. I was porting Chiggen around and helping a DN group get xp. Boy did I have that scum boulder rolling with that, helping people outside of raids. And that's just it, there's no angle, I'm not trying to be clever. I just wanted to see Tunare die on the red server one time before it goes back to single digits. At least you'd have a leg to stand on when the bluebie raiders laughed at your PvE skills that you "don't care about".

In light of all that, for your repeated scummings and slander of a poor, elderly Norrathian who just wants to help... yes I am your enemy. If I can cheap shot you, I will.

My best/lowest estimate is "pretty damn incriminating"

Maybe we should leave that dkp audit alone, lest Jeni gets up in there, so moving on.

How many tears/epic pieces are you guys "holding on to" instead of members?

Why would someone who won't raid for pixels under aim chat leadership again be a threat to you? Seems we shared a common grievance. No? Is killing rats in DN and porting Chiggen around Norrath all part of some bigger plot?

The point of all this, mud slinging about pixels for profit, accounts and slandering was this and we're completely off topic due to the usual FQ banter/whatever current arguments outside this exist:

You offered tabula rasa, it does not exist. Or it does but this, or but that. You can juuuust explain anyway anything you do that is completely dishonest, but you can't deny the pattern. You extend your hand in friendship and betray pretty regularly. This is a clear pattern of sociopathic and untrustworthy behavior.

You insulted my integrity and good nature as someone who will help a guild, I insulted your credibility (namely to uphold your end of RMT deals and questionable dkp value assignments to items). So, I think we're even, thanks for the lively guild discussion.

ps: I hope you don't reply "drugs" or "lol u care" to personal or work related emails that are longer than 1 sentence of misspellings. Then again, maybe this lack personal skills,trust worthiness and credibility is the reason for.. other things

Have fun out there sorry bout the attacks, just my observations u no? Gets a little heated on the board and I give into it.

Good post

That feeling when you play 23/7 and don't have any of the characters you spent years building.

I'm gonna drop some TLDR in this thread I swear to God.

[Farzo]

Cyrens fun, pretty much lead <empire's> off peak crew with his sickness for alts.

Def did more than any other officer or member of <empire> when I was part of that guild for ~6 months kunark-velious (and by a long mile).

Atleast people get a chance at top tier loot in this guild and it isnt all funneled 2 pals of leadership. I mean seeing x-member of LC pals in empire afking 75% of the time and picking up their 2nd dozekar loot's pretty how's you going but we all knew what we were signing up for and got to see most of the content bcoz of it (well atleast those of us who weren't just login-2-raid types aka blackholes on red99). At the end of the day 95% of all that gear and time is just parked at server select screens anyhow and not like anyone in <empire> besides Crouton ever used it to PvP.

Also I personally couldnt care vuulak isnt dead yet its 1% of the game and only small dicks get hung up on things like that: I mean lets face the facts <empire> never truely "won the box" because they never attempted the final boss of velious.

The day I never have to go to NToV again on this server will be a happy day for me, I hate the zone.

(P.s. if or when or when not: vuulak and probably most ntov dragons will still be up in 2 years time as the #'s on this box decline)

[Farzo]

Y'all seem 2 forget 2 login for fun at times.

(And 2 tease your opponents relentlessly)

? u talking shit?

hi sir,

sounds like it to me

drop a bomb gyno, lets turn this evening into something special

[Gardur]

Why u making deals with scum?

He got dirt on u too?

Wtb bunker buster.

[Aesop]

If Terp has an secret agenda I'm not aware of it, Thunderdome is doing it's thing and it has nothing to do with Buhbuh/Cyren. So far it's just been helpful people, I wouldn't wish ill-will on Buhbuh. Although pal sometimes I wonder what you are doing to yourself with Tempest. lol

[HippoNipple]

Wtb bunker buster.

It is out of respect for him serving our country. Once he leaves the elf gets it.

[Doctor Jeff]

The only bomb Gyno is gonna drop is in his own pants.

[Samsung]

Still waiting for Gyno to throw real dirt on me.

[heartbrand]

a lot of ppl taking a video game way 2 serious

There have probably been 20+ accounts banned from people dropping bombs on you and you always pretend to be innocent until your next born again clean whistle revelation.

[Colgate]

yea cyren did a lot in empire after midnight in terms of playing everquest, but he never really fulfilled any officer responsibilities for his entire career in the guild

...other than batphone people, which he frequently fucked up by not selecting BCC on the mailing list, which pissed off a LOT of people

he didn't:

-lead raids other than white noising a channel with "this is what this raid mob does don't forget guys" - raids were 99% lead by gongshow and myself, he did put forth effort for off hours things like VP, but these literally never happened if neither gongshow nor myself attended

-lead pvp, again mostly gongshow, myself, and heavy hitters like kammbo, chuck, weta, letsjoe, etc.

-recruit new members, this was 99% me

-manage the guildbank, this was basically every officer except for him, but mostly terp, gongshow, and omai, although he certainly helped himself to quite a bit of what was in the guild bank to buy his alt an efreeti war bow, surprise surprise he never fully paid it back to neither the guildbank nor casual scum; i remember having to dig up several VS stones to give to casual scum several months into velious to make good on his "trade"

-manage the website, this was basically entirely terp, news posts were by gongshow

-manage attendance tracking, this was mostly gongshow and then taken over later on partially by fistlin

Tldr

[Colgate]

the tldr is that tempest still can't kill vulak because of poor leadership

[Colgate]

i saw a lot of value in someone who plays the game over 20 hours a day

if someone like letsjoe had wanted as many items as him, he probably would have gotten that much too

but was he some great leader like farzo suggests? definitely not

[Colgate]

this is correct

[Buhbuh]

that's exactly how it went down

took me back

[Samsung]

Reporting Nirgon and Colgate for trolling recruitment thread, rl attacks, spam etc etc. Cyren is really a genius, look at all these toxic aimchat members spewing crap.

[Samsung]

I see you accusing Sharknado of selling accounts for rent and that's all I need to report you.

I understand you're at an emotional state right now but nobody cares. You're basically with a group of losers that do nothing but troll and make fun of you. Enjoy your future suspension.

man this thread really blew up after i took my nap

[Spit]

Liar you got your juneior whopper from bk

[Redi]

That sounds good tbh

[Buhbuh]

What is with ppl enjoying BK?

It has to be bottom tier fast food

[heartbrand]

Had to go work so I wasn't smashing refresh, I take it someones melt down got deleted?

[Aesop]

man this thread really blew up after i took my nap

I heard AF boot camp was EZ but...

[Aesop]

I was gonna TLDR this thread but I can sum it up instead.

Lots of throwing rocks in glass houses here. Many years of peoples lives wasted on EverQuest. Mine included.

[heartbrand]

I always assumed that people didn't really take things personally in this game and shrugged them off like I did. This thread has obviously convinced me otherwise. Feel bad for people on all sides who invest any emotional connection to this game outside of the enjoyment of killing dragons and other players.

[Aesop]

Well, my inclination is you are lying to yourself. But I don't know you very well, everyone says they aren't invested in this game.

[AzzarTheGod]

Had to go work so I wasn't smashing refresh, I take it someones melt down got deleted?

at least 2 full page got the chop. too bad for FQ that this went down in a tempest recruitment thread.

only 2 suspensions for Smedy n Meganslaw dropping an N bomb after the dust settled. guides being a little more tolerant this time around despite having to delete 20+ posts.

[HippoNipple]

So the only support Red server gets is deleting interesting posts?
