Okay so I'll bite for a second and stop trolling.

The bottom line with Red99 boils down to a few major key points:

First, the population is exceedingly small. This does not allow for a variety of guild choices, player style choices, or even friendships. I know for a fact that the way I conduct myself on this server would have disallowed me to be in any kind of guild on live. However, here I have a spot because I'm a fairly active player. Population problems cause people who wouldn't normally play together do just that; play together. That's where we get people who were formerly enemies under one tag in Nihilum.

Second, players on Red99 have the longest memories in the history of online roleplaying games. Any kind of insult, train, or pvp that occurred a year, two years ago, or even on a different server is held against any player or group of players to the detriment of everyone. This mainly impacts Azrael's side. Some examples of these beefs include Kringe & Friedchicken, Tunak & Heartbrand, and Elderan & logic. The players on Red99 are some of the most hardcore players and because of this their rivalries run deep. I get that. But it becomes harmful to the progress and to the server at large when so few players refuse to play with each other. Ultimately, tribalism, rival factions, whatever you want to call them are harmful to the server at large.

Third, there are no defined rules for this server. This server needs a set-in-stone rule set in place that does not bend. I understand Sirken does his best and is a volunteer. I wouldn't be a GM here if it was a paid position because the thought of dealing with every aspect of this community makes me want to hurl myself in front of a train. However, rules are necessary. More importantly, the enforcement of said rules is paramount to the success of the server. Some examples would be:
1) Train = 7 days first offense
2) Train = 30 days second offense
3) Train = 90 days / perma-ban third offense

I personally wouldn't join Nihilum nor would they even entertain the idea of having me. However, if someone wants to join them that does not make them a bad person nor change who they are necessarily. I like people in Nihilum and people in Nihilum like me. I don't care if people I'm friends with kill me or if I kill them, because it's a video game.

Remember this:

It's a fucking video game.

Ok Slathar you have matured. I hereby lift the ban on your membership into Nihilum.
