Wall of text in their guild recruitment section since RNF gag. Who wants the honors of reading it for us and debunking it?

Before I get into my post, I'd like to preface by saying that I'm a member of Tempest who is a bit of an idealist. I have my own unrealistic hopes for this server that are the primary reason I choose Tempest as my home. Tempest is the only weapon that I can wield to achieve this dream. The following are all my opinions only. Feel free to agree.

Tempest was founded with ambitious and perhaps arrogant goals: We're going to be the better players.

It was founded by and continues to be led by wolves. Veteran raiders who share similar goals as mine, but are very much better suited to dealing with the current raid scene. The end game is a vicious place and requires a particularly savage and objective adherence to beliefs to wade through. This makes them targets. This makes them difficult to deal with sometimes. And if you have even half an understanding of what they're doing, it makes them very respectable.

I say better and not best because we are fallible. We do make mistakes. We own up to our mistakes outright. We concede mobs when we've botched the pull. Our most criticized moments are often us seeking a change in the competition. If change isn't sought from a mistake, then it wasn't a mistake. We will always and immediately seek that change within. It is always disappointing when we expect others to do the same.

In a relatively closed and isolated community like P99, far too much toxicity and hatred exists in the end game content. Tempest holds ourselves to far higher standards than many other raiding guilds because we've realized long ago that adherence to the rules would make us unique. It would force us to become better players to overcome many inherent disadvantages that we place upon ourselves in order to achieve similar accomplishments as other guilds who would cheat, lie and manipulate not only the server staff but their companions in this community of ours.

This has made Tempest a target from day one. You see it in RNF threads. You see it just standing in ToV. We are a target because we are better. We are succeeding greatly at extreme disadvantages and players in other guilds can't stand it.

I don't take offense to their pathetic RNF posts and attempts to goad our players. It's a sign that we've bothered them. It's proof that they feel threatened, embarrassed and probably jealous of what Tempest has done and continues to do. The rhetoric remains inane chatter that shows the abysmal creativity and stooping moral standards of our competition.

They will continue to lurk in our guilds on "secret" alts. They will continue to log in on stolen guild character accounts to read guild chat. They will continue to eaves drop in our VOIP. They will continue to post screenshots from our Member perspective like it's some kind of holy grail for them.

And we will continue being better.

Really the worst part of it is that so few people seem to understand the server situation.

The community continues to swell numbers of toxic players. There exists an absolutely disgusting amount of players who have been outright banned from the game but are allowed to continue spitting vitriol on the forums with no other goal other than to disrupt and damage this community. That's what they want from this community, and that's what they're getting. It remains largely unchecked in game as well.

The only way forward is to become a better player. This server will only exist in a playable state if individual members come to this realization and seek to make it a better place. That's what Tempest is trying to do with the end game raid scene, and we are facing incredible opposition. These players who relish in the disorder they can sow and profit from never seem to miss a chance to take a stab at Tempests efforts in this regard.

Yes, we restrict our members from speaking in RNF because it really has no reason to exist. You should notice that it is the only place our competition feels safe enough to talk. It's the only place they tell their jokes and comfort eachother with rhetoric.

Here's the fun thing they don't even realize though: Tempest isn't engaging in these tit-for-tat squabbles. RNF continues to be a cesspool of community delinquents and players who are banned from the game. Some of these cancers we've been ridden of, others I hope the server staff will soon recognize for what they are and properly address.

So here's my invitation to the rest of the playerbase in helping acknowledge these people for what they are. Join us in our effort to make this server what it should be.

This server is too small and isolated to be pricks to eachother. The server has too much potential for us to hold long term grudges. It's time for people to grow up and be accountable. Be respectable.

We're all adults here. I'm proud to be part of the guild that doesn't hide that fact.

"It was founded by and continues to be led by wolves. Veteran raiders"

Watchout.

Watchout.

For all their praising of being the better people and holding themselves to a higher standard and all the holier than thou bullshit, they are the single only guild to have become nearly impossible to work with with not only my guild but nearly any other guild.

I have been a Guild Leader / Officer of this raid scene for nearly 6 years and every single other guild, even to this day (Ask AG / BG / Core / Kittens / Whoever else - Rampage , IB, FE, Awakened for older guilds), I have been able to keep lines of communication open and be able to at least talk to, whether we agreed or not on the outcomes. Sure, Im an asshole, Im aware of this but Tempest is the ONLY guild that refuses / refused to work with us. I dont mean just not be able to come to any agreements, but simply WILL not talk to us or answer any questions about any issue that there ever is without cloak and dagger and vague rhetoric. Instead, they bitch to the GMs, refuse to let us even make it right, get free mobs, and are still mediocre at best.

As I said, ive been around through at least 15 different guilds, whether directly competing with me or not, and this is the WORST the raid scene has even been. There is 0 communication and NOTHING is attempted to be made right by them and we arent even allowed to try to make any mistakes we make right with them.

Believe what you will but the raid scene is only about to get 100x more toxic due to the leadership that claims they all stay away from the toxicity making it more toxic. Cant wait!

If this isn’t a pre-crime indicator than I don’t know what is.

A: everyone on the server randomly morphed into dicks

I'm pretty sure the reason Tempest does not post in RnF is because they do not treat that as a PR stunt like Aftermath has been doing here. You guys in Aftermath seem to have a hard-on for Tempest members, like some obsessive compulsive stalker. Get over them. Quit with your little propaganda stunts and move the hell on.



Believe the only people that make the raid scene toxic has been Aftermath with all the shit-talking, egregious tactics, and above all poor sportsman-like conduct.

no I think it is because tempest seems to generate a lotta embarrassing posts liek this. AM on the other hand is home to loose-knit band of high-quality poasters with a talent for winning.

[Gatordash]

Rogean personally kicks you out of TOV for being dicks....

....writes 1,000 words on how the rest of the server needs to step up to your high moral standards.

Tempest 2019!
