There is an interesting story regarding Gates of Discord launch and the fall of AV and LoD which resulted in most of those 2 guilds either joining SR, quitting the game, or transferring to another server.
Basically, the only guild progressing in GoD was SR and all of the big 3 (SR, AV, and LoD) had a bunch of people who would only show up to loot PoTime once a week (read: dead weight). A few of us tried to form a super guild from the core of each guild.
The effective leader of LoD at the time (who was/is TMO here) delayed the idea too long, and the GL of AV found out and booted Lhile and Koramar who were 'representing' the AV core. This resulted in all the LoD/AV people jumping ship to SR.
Not to say that's the entire story, but it's fun to revisit these things.
