Aalpha had 33/6, that means other people in TMO died 60 times, to reach the 1:2 ratio, which means some severe dunking of scrubs happened.

Of course you knew that.
Just look at the zones of those kills. Banks, Spires/Rings and some lowbie dungeons.

The server was pretty mellow with them until about 45-50 when they started acting stupid and talking mad shit in OOC.

One day they were logging on throwaways or something and asking for ports, trying to kill the porter when they zoned in.

Until they did it to the wrong person that promptly replied to their shit talking with something along the lines of "Ok, trial period over".


I remember thinking, they have no idea what just happened.

Most of them figured it out shortly after.

You do realize <Friends> was the cheetah pack to your gazelle and got it's rocks off destroying your rank and file daily? Every time you summoned the will to get back on the horse and try to raid, Slathar and Salem would lick their chops and get even more creative with how to skullfuck you.

You never stood a chance.

We never asked for "friends" when we got here, just competition. Once it was obvious the server didn't want to compete we went else where. Slather or salem I have no clue who they are?

Makes sense you don't have a clue who they are, they are pvp guys.

Pound for pound, <Friends> was the top guild pre-Velious. You put 5/10/20 random nerds from <Nihilum>, <Azrael>, <Prophets of Slosh>, <Casual Scum>, <Fresh>, <Holocaust/Empire>, and <Friends> in DL with a no rules, no zone fight to the finish, <Friends> wins every time.

They were one of the few raiding entities that did not purposefully over-recruit in order to make raid targets easier. They were a high performance geared, highly organized group of players who weren't interested in pixels, just griefing the rest of the R99 population.

After Velious launched they couldn't compete with Empires numbers, but they tried their damnedest to slow us down. Once it was clear they were not going to be able to hinder Empire in ToV in any relevant capacity, they went their separate ways.

From my recollection, TMO only had one good player: Sentenza(sp?). There were a few more that were able to adapt and stick it out on the server (did any of them even become good at PvP?), but like 95% of that guild was miserably bad and peaced out quickly.

Without a strong core (none of them knew PvP, only a few of them knew PvE) and without the numbers to compete (Empire still had a sizable numbers advantage), they stood no chance. It didn't help that Tiggles talked shit non-stop and convinced pretty much every other guild to corpse camp them. I recall Friends giving it to them pretty harshly, and a handful of Empire people joined in as well, despite Empire leadership generally advocating to leave them alone.
