It's worked out well. Fountree's right in the fact the guild is fundamentally changed from what it was a year ago, and it's sad to see that. It's unfortunate that the merge had (which I don't personally agree with) to happen. TMO vs IB vs FE would have been the best outcome for the server.

DA hated us and vice versa before our original merge. Many IB players we've taken hated us and vice versa. Perhaps it is instead a failing on the part of the people who drive that attitude.

I, for one, am quite comfortable with the current situation. It's not without its faults (some of which are reasonably severe), but the guild's likely never been more productive or respectable in my personal view.

But what's the best outcome for my alts gear slots?

I'd merge with IB tomorrow if it meant uncontested class C, Fuck competition I just want better gear than the rest of the EC tunnel.

Clearing plane of fear 1 by 1 must suck.

I know I never made a full clear without falling asleep.

You made a choice, live with it. All your tears wont bring it back.

I remember on Live when a fear clear would be like a 6 hour ordeal. Guilds burn through it in two hours on this server. I'm sure Plane of Growth will be an even more drastic difference- I never did a whole lot of PoG and it's been a while but didn't that shit take like 12 hours back in the day?

Um maybe. I'm not sure what you need answering specifically, there's alot there and I answered some in my original post. Again, as I already stated I don't think a lot of people had a problem with the majority of the FE membership they just had a problem with how the merge was internally forced, as well as a lot of the issues I've discussed on guild direction and the choice of putting friends over pixels. Remember, we had a clean slate after the reform and were badly damaged. We could have used that time to come together again and get back to the basics. Selling the hard work of the Zeelot years out without his consent was the worst thing we could have done for morale. At least these powergrabbers could have changed the name and shown a little respect lol.
