Is there even room for a guild that does things like scheduled planar trash clears, Kael arena or other low hanging fruits?

The meta is largely kill the best names with the least collateral possible.

Is there anyone breaking that mold?

There are presently zero stable dedicated lower-end guilds on P99. Most guilds at the lower-end tend to develop the pixel sickness and end up becoming higher-end (see: Kittens and many others) and the remainder imploded for this or that reason.

Castle and Dawn Believers are pretty casual as far as I can tell. Seem to be doing alright.

Wait- Kittens still does Kael Arena, Planes etc for 46+ non dkp regularly. Like every week.

Europa also still does scheduled planar raids, and other things

Castle is a leveling guild insofar as I know. My post was referring mainly to guilds focused on the level 60 portion of the game. I didn't spell that out directly in the earlier post so any lack of clarity is on me.

With respect to Dawn Believers: I'm under the impression it had progressed to the point (both in activity level and in terms of what it does) where it's no longer truly low-end. By all means correct me if I've over-estimated its progress. That's entirely possible as I have relatively few contacts within that guild. With its open-invite policy and generally laid-back demeanor it's probably the guild most fitting for a player desiring a stable lower-end guild. When I attempted to join it at one time the officer I talked to told me not to bother because they didn't want or need level 60's (it was still a dedicated leveling guild at that time). Obviously it has progressed since then--how much?

I was guilded in Kittens for roughly a year. It is absolutely NOT a low-end guild anymore by my use of the phrase and hasn't been for a long time. Like several other guilds it makes a place for casual-minded players on roster without the guild itself as a whole necessarily remaining lower-end. I regard lower-end guilds and casual-friendly raiding guilds as different sorts of entities, with Kittens representing the latter.

Arthion says, After this cycle, our enemies - Aftermath and their allies AEGIS - will claim any loss is because of WoW, or holidays, or BBQing - so let this cycle be our cycle. A time may come when our internet fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship - but it will not be this cycle! So I say:
Once more into the breach, dear friends, once more - as the blast of war cries out across the server, let our actions be the actions of a tiger. They call us zerg, so let us be - and when we fall, we will rise up to meet them. Let our pulls be clean, or CH chains tight and our speedbumps timely. We will grant our enemies not one FTE, let them win no races, and have no loot. We will win. We will show them we are better in every way and they will rue the day!

So far so good!

AM seems to have more people in RnF than online contesting merbs. Maybe that's part of the problem of late, eh?

I posit that the AM people on the race line are the same people who are mashing refresh on RnF with 5 digit post counts.

Would explain more than BBQ.
