Yeah complimenting Jeremy in Azrael TS probably not the most popular activity lately. Nonetheless, most of the Azrael core with 3-digit IQs still love and appreciate me (and me them!)

Mass recruiting on a server this size and meant for pvp will eventually kill it. We need smaller guilds and more of them. simple math here pals.

If you have a guild of say 100 on a server of 300, you have taken away 1/3 of your targets for pvp. Now take that same guild, Even by breaking it in half you double your targets. You can see the effect simply by looking at last night's pvp in KC. Fresh is doing its own thing now, so instead of holo vs az as it always was, you had a 3 way battle which at least according to fresh was a blast. Zergs do hurt the server, specifically on a pvp server. it also makes people not want to join smaller guilds until they are geared if at all.

Holo and AZ should ask themselves, do they really enjoy fighting the same guys over and over, or do they want new blood? If you want new blood then take the initiative and make the change.

there's plenty of people outside of holo capable of contesting. imagine if Fresh and AZ teamed up, if AZ actually recruited, if Suave allied with someone for PVP, etc., etc. it's just that every1 is more content to not lose rather than try to win.

yeah, it's too bad all races in the game start on such a small and overcrowded continent.......


Boy I sure do wonder how all of those other races made it over there in the first place without the ability to get group ports til lvl 30?

Duck, you made decent points until this. Then you said this.... and it was the dumbest shit argument against twinks I have ever heard.

I level in Najena, I level in sol a/b, I level in blackburrow, hell I am going to make a run at runyeye and paw soon I think. Make a group and go do something instead of walking into the PVP hotspots on the server and crying?

Seriously... there are so many great zones to level and you moron newbs can't just enjoy the insane XP bonus but also have to go for CB>UR>MM rout for max ZEM speed grinding... for what? If you don't like fihgitng twinks, what makes oyu think you'll like fihgitng lvl 40+ twinks? People like you will only have more HP to be able to gate with. You are blue. You don't want pvp. You refuse to learnt o fight back or retreat, and in the RED box, those are your options. Those are the rules the 60's play buy, the raiders play by, everyone plays by. If you don't like those rules, go play blue and use their rules.

I don't like twink griefers either, I think they are lame, but, it's a fun challenge... it's like a lvl 20-30 raid dropping a fungi twink, only it's PVP. I cut my teeth on fungi twinks in my rags, never called LnS and kept coming back for more. Now when I PVP regular people it is almost sad because 90% still cry... no one enjoys it because they came here to be BLUE. Don't call me a PK bitch, this is a PVP server. We are all PK's.

THIS IS RED 99. THERE IS NO OPTION TO HAND IN YOUR TOME OF DISCORD. YOU WERE BORN RED. YOU WILL DIE RED. AGAIN, AND AGAIN, AND AGAIN. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE IT, GO BE BLUE.

some of the best pvp fights ive been a part of were shameless bind rushing 3 hour events. yet the other team now is only interested in who can secure the most kills at the end, content losing the actual battle and plugging in order to preserve meaningless kdr in a MMO. if people would just pvp it would be a lot more fun. i miss the sol b fights in classic between nilly and holo where people would bind on the ledge and just shamelessly fight over and over each time they spawned, sometimes only having the chance to loot their weapon.

not sure how you got that from what I typed. if you expect to just show up at raids and hit a few buttons and loaf around without paying attention azrael isn't for you. if you show up, listen, contribute value then you'll be welcomed without a doubt. clear?
Well I apologize if I've misunderstood you but what I've taken from the majority of your posts is:

1. Azrael wants good/elite players/ pvp'ers
2. With gear
3. At 60
4. To form a tight nit guild

Sorry but expecting that to come to you without doing any work on the front end (teaching people how to be better at pvp, helping them gear, helping them level) is ridiculous considering the alleged actions and public persona your guild puts forth.

You attract more flies with honey rather than griefing them with twinks while they level or harass and taunt less skilled pvp in ooc.

If you can't see how off putting your guild can be despite someone's interest in exactly what you claim to practice, namely top level organized play in all facets of the game, then I don't know what to tell you.
