Toxigen, remember riot pulled out the coup de grace by getting their members in as guides. They won vanq lost.

There's no denying it yet people still try to advocate for some bastardized hybrid template beyond simple meritocracy and interaction. Project 1999 would be a ghost town without competition and interaction, just like all the other emulators in existence.

@Ekco - Yes, Quake meta only devalues this entire Project and hastens its doom by rewarding all the instant gratification folks. They're incapable of "looking down the road" towards the eventual end of said road. Menden seems fine maintaining this course of action based upon past comments and current actions.

@Klaz - There's a reason why the military moves a recently promoted NCO from his team and former buddies in the lower enlisted bracket instead of leaving him there "in charge".

We're all just pissing in the wind anyways. It's not like customer service rep's nor admin care what we think about any of this. Sit back and enjoy the ride. /popcorn
Quake meta is fine. At least it gives more raiding opportunities which is fun. Sitting around waiting for a 24 hour window is boring af. It's much more fun when everything pops at once and everyone is scrambling and strategizing what to hit and when.

FTE lockouts and races to unrooted dragons would revert the need for zerg. Let some playmakers do their thing with smaller groups of elf pals.

Fuck bag limits, fuck drafts, fuck your new socialist Woke99 meta...bunch of lollygagging cuckbois circle-jerking themselves into oblivion...you did this to yourselves by embracing this nonsense.

RIP blue (I haven't logged in for over a year).

Green server loves the quake and draft meta and they have proven far more influential than Riot, Vanquish, or the entire blue server. Hope that helps.

Insanity laughs under pressure we break

Why can't we give merge one more chance?
Why can't we give a merge at least one chance?
Why can't we give merge, give merge, be merge, love merge, make merge, do merge? Why not merge?

Is merge such an old-fashioned word cuz merge dares you
To care for the people not logged in
But who would be
If only something would happen
Like Velious at launch!
Lvl 60 playtime cap!
Then you get to become

A marked runner

A marked runner

New server

I would totally start playing again if that were to happen, both for the salty tears from all the sweaty neckbeards that have literally ruined their lives in order to poopsock and pixel block a dead game, and also because I'm an actual adult with responsibilities, a actual life, and interested outside of 20 year old MMOs, so being able to schedule raid nights with my buddies without NEET nerds around sounds like a blast.

the "riot won by getting members in as guides we just need fte lockouts to revive competition" coping narrative is peak lol.

vanq lost because it was a toxic cesspool of personalities and eventually once the pixel flow slowed down most people couldn't justify remaining in such a miserable group.

even bigger lol is all the former vanq. stans declaring the server is dead. the server is fine, you all just lost because your glorious leader abandoned you all to fuck off to green. bonus points is he places none of the responsibility on his own shoulders, and blames the members for his failures of leadership.

you hate to see it.

There are no bad teams, Only Bad Leaders.
