Remember how you said you had me on ignore? Funny how you're still able to respond to my posts. As for Nihilum, I'm an app to the guild and therefore not a representative of them, but of the top guilds Nihilum is clearly the one that griefs the least. As for the examples you gave, considering that you lie frequently about the most trivial things (like knowing who Checkraise is, or whether I'm on your ignore list or not), it's hard to take anything you say seriously.

I'll score you a point here.

And I'll add that it continues to grow steadily over time. I think the people that stay are the people who come as a group at this point.

The trident: Poseidon, God of the Oceans' weapon of choice. Ancient mermen used to use this weapon in battle to fight against the crustacean armies and all the shrimps and jellyfish in the sea. I often come out here to this abandoned cement factory to harness its power. Learn its secrets. Think about life. Think about the game. They're the same thing you know.

I got to tell you, I thought the blacks in Baltimore were bad, but turns out they're nothing compared to these fags you got in San Francisco.

Founded on griefing?

More like founded on getting the best and most active people on the server to create the best guild.

I have to say I was one of the nicest people on the server to all those who deserved it. I just trashed all the scrubs who talked shit on forums/in game and during beta. All those people who said they would destroy me yadda yadda, those are the ones I targeted and I destroyed every single one of them and made most of them quit. If you talk shiit then you better be able to back it up or you get fucked.

I had never played Classic EQ before nor had I touched Everquest in like 10 years. I was a complete noob during beta, all I had was my awesome skill and gaming talent (and and a lot of time on my hands [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]). During beta I met this dr00d called Flip who taught me most shiit I had to know for live and during live I met Silver/Jerrin and then Troriste who I continued to learn from until I basically knew every single trick in the book. Then I combined my awesomness with knowledge and dominated everyone who came in my way.

Sadly there wasn't any competition at all so I got bored quickly and therefor quit. Most people here has a lot of knowledge and time on their hands but their skill and mind in battle are truly lacking and therefor became easy prey. It basically felt like it was me Michael Jordan vs 400 NBA coaches in battle. Sure they know their shit outside the court. But once you put a ball in their hands then not much happens [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

Hardcore players: essentially unintentionally griefed themselves and everyone else at the high end off with the stupid arms race that occurred 40+. Guild A with 6 lost to Guild B with 10, so Guild A recruited 10 more. Guild B with 10 lost to Guild A with 16, so Guild B recruited 10 more, and so on. This meant both guilds were forced to play with shitty people they didn't like. It also meant that eventually one guild had a huge numbers advantage over the other and there was no one else left to recruit, resulting in the death of meaningful PvP.

If people were intelligent and kept things lean and evenly splintered among numerous rival guilds, the server could have been made fun and enjoyable for everyone. But intelligence isn't a common quality found among PvP players unfortunately.
Best post I've seen in a long time on these forums.
