I think alot of you failed to see what is really going on with Red99.
The fact is that the overwhelming MAJORITY want to use PVP as a system to determine who gets what raid mobs. Playing on blue the last 2+ years all the bitching, training, KSing, poopsocking has brought us to Red 99. We wanted a system so that all the bitching,training,KSing, poopsocking could be handed with PVP.
This is why you do not see Nihilum rushing to the forums or giving two shits about PVP outside of the raid encounters. It just is not why we are here.
This is also why Nihilum is what it is right now. Refugee EQ Raiders that want a system to stop the madness that has/is going on with blue99.
No one is looking to "jump ship" because the only headache is waiting for the raid content to respawn. Nihilum wont "implode" because we are doing the content that the majority of players from blue are here to do.
BECAUSE THEY CANT ON BLUE.
For all the rhetoric the many spew on these forums you seem to not know the first thing about leading a guild in EQ. It is 100% about the pixels. If they wanted a PVP game to show off PVP skills they would play a game designed specifically for PVP (like Darkfall or UO). Since people are here for the "pixels" then you should not be surprised when there is one guild that has emerged as dominant.
You had your chance to do that..but you FAILED to clearly balance the PVP with the PVE. It also did not help that Holocaust griefed/PKed anyone not in Holocaust every chance they could then ridiculed them on forums...yet you are surprised that there is this dominant guild pushing your shit in every day....
You really only have yourselves to blame for all of this and watching all the pissing and moaning makes me laugh with glee with every post.
