who is the most skiled overall player on red99

[Tradesonred]

Nizzar was a horrible leader. On a populated server people would have ditched him and his stupid bullying attitude pronto. Same thing with Terp, people endure it because theres not much other options on this low pop server. So its shut up and take it to have access to pixels for some, even sucking up to terrible people for others.

He knew the game, ok.

Yes, Colgate, I could. You're nothing more than a shitty ripoff of Nizzar that did practically nothing from classic until Nihilum was disbanded and you picked up the pieces leftover and now strut around like you did everything yourself.
I've created and led a guild before too, one that had a lot more members than Empire does except we recruited people who had never raided before and taught them how to become an efficient raid force that killed through more expansions that P99 will ever have. Plus I made sure that no one was ever treated like shit or used for the benefit of a few people gearing alts.
You're not that fucking special man. Hell, you are not even unique on Red considering what Nizzar did and the situation you took advantage of. The only singular accomplishment you have achieved on Red is winning the BotB in which how many people actually participated? 10 maybe? Yeah, that's really a Best of the Best. Perhaps you will finally be one of a kind when you manage to get your guild disbanded by GMs a second time like the original Holocaust.
You used to talk shit about Nihilum and now you're an emulated Nizzar on an emulated server.

I have more faults than I could possibly list, but at least I have more integrity than ego or greed. Even my RL friend thinks I am fucking stupid for doing what I do, and he's probably right, but I would rather be a good person and a shitty player than vice-versa.

write us another holier-than-thou essay

i love laughing at them

Its kinda funny that i consider Max the less worst current leads after picking on him quite a bit on the forums, Lite cant think for the guild, something Nizzar at least did a little. And Terp is Terp, I rarely was witness, through my MMO years, to something as sad as Terp belittling and disrespecting his RL "buddies" with his authoritay while we were playing WoW emu over some trivial shit.

Can see video games still affecting your <3 and clouding your thoughts. Good luck in future endevours p sure no one cares.

I nominate Littlegyno as the most skilled. He has slayed Cazic Thule, god of FEAR, 8 times by himself and looted an Amulet of Necropotence each time off the deity's corpse.

I don't think there's a lot of skill to leading the top guild on red99. Whichever guild becomes largest first wins on a small pop server like this. Once that top guild is cemented there's effectively no way to topple them regardless of how inept / mean / bad the leadership is. Nihilum became top dog because Holocaust was banned and there were no other options. Founding fathers intentionally did not want to truly contest to be the #1 guild, and holocaust burnt out after the ban. Since Nihilum was the only option, it was either join and get loot despite how the guild was ran, or quit. Without enough people to recruit and the ability of the top guild to lock down all content easily, there's no way to ever upend the top guild other than GM intervention, or a large % of members revolting, which will just end up with most of the members in a similarly large guild but with a different tag and leader.

This isn't to say that Holocaust's leaders are bad, but you could have Abraham Lincoln/Winston Churchil and Sun Tzu leading Fresh and they still aren't ever becoming the top guild on red99. Most people who join this server want only to quickly experience the end game, get their epic, and then quit shortly after. They have no interest in joining an underdog to slay one faydedar and nagafen every 2 and a half weeks with no chance at ever upgrading their character or experiencing VP or other content. They don't care about the forum drama, who stripped who's character, who challenged who to a backlot MMA fight IRL, who RMT'ed or deleted someone's char, who betrayed this guy or joined some guild they never heard of back in 2011. They just want to right click the dragon corpse that they killed back in 1999 and loot that pixel they probably never got the chance to 15 years ago when they were hiding in the school library during lunch.

There is no "marketplace of ideas" on red99 where a guild with a better vision and charter can organically rise up and win. dealwithit.jpg or play a different game.
