Sky OoA / Noble spawn clarification request

[Sadiki]

CSG made me lose my job, my family, and my life. But I got a vindi bp out of it.

Meh, its casual raiding for me. If something spawns for CSG I may or may not log in for it depending if I'm working/sleeping/caring to kill it, if I wanted to go hardcore I would still be on Live - hell I'm 7 years in to this server and am only 56, pretty casual to me. But I will log in for AG appointed raids whenever I can - supporting my fellow guildmembers when I can.

I guarantee you Rustle is the most casual. We don't batphone after 12 AM EST. We Roleplay. We diddle each other's fiddles.

Join us.

Samoht an ex red player that stole knuckle's avatar and now spends his time trolling blue players?

I learned a new word from a forum elf recently that fits AG. "Sanctimonious."

***AG no better than all the guilds they like to criticize and complain about.

Not speaking for all of CSG here, but Omni occupies a bit of a different space from Rustle and many other guilds. Part of the reason that we raid as a guild 3x a week (for two hours) - or 2x week in the Summer - is that we seem to recruit the type of players who are experiencing a lot of the content for the first time.

Many of our apps didn't finish an epic on live - lots didn't see a dragon there. So we end up with more casual people who are joining a guild for the first time...and need HoT gear, need epics (we did Prince in chardok 3x today, for example), to see the planes - as well as to learn (or refresh) basic game mechanics.

And on a static server with people coming and going all the time, it's a never-ending cycle.

And that's a part of the game that I really enjoy. Reliving the wonder of this lightning-in-a-bottle mess that is classic EQ with new people - many experiencing some of what the game has to offer for the first time.

So yeah, we probably spend more time raiding each week than Rustle. But we also recruit very different people, too. And we try to cater to the needs of our members that way.

Nah. Unless something has changed recently, AG is a great guild that promotes a much healthier raid scene than either of "top" guilds. I hated the cutthroat nature of the raid scene when I was playing, but AG always felt like a nice oasis where we could get stuff done while still respecting our fellow players as much as possible.

I just think "casual raid guild" is a misnomer. "Casual-friendly hardcore raid guild" is probably more accurate.

I'd say this is pretty accurate. AG peeps always seems decent to me, if a little bit stuck up. But I'm a little wild, so *shrug*
