Nice to see it's still the same core of about 40-50 sociopaths bouncing around between raid guilds splitting/re-forming that get off on cockblocking the other hundreds of players on the server.

Just wanted to say that the timeline about Dark Ascension seems completely wrong. I was in DA on live for many years. They came to p99 and Leadership got banned during the 2011 Banfest.

AG split from CSG because they were bringing 80 - 90% of the raid force for 33% of the loot. It wasn't personal and had nothing against Omni or Europa.

I honestly swear, not trying to troll here :-) Just trying to keep up on the history, like continuing on Bruts list here...

By Brutillus in an old tread
"- Server launches, first people to lvl50ish form Inglourious Basterds and run the show.
- Transcendence becomes 2nd major raid guild. Staff enforced rotation is formed between them and IB.
- Divinity grows up to become 3rd major raid guild. Poopsocks Nagafen to get their first raid boss kill. Staff breaks rotation. IB dominates content.
- Fish Bait is formed, led by Salty a VZTZ reject. Formed mostly of goonies and whatnot internet scum afaik. Blatantly trains people for Hate gear and whatnot. Mutiny occurs, guild reforms as Dark Ascension.
- DA becomes legit competition. Summer of poopsock comes along. Horrible ruleset about # of people sitting at dragon spawn point to "camp it" are made, resulting in 3days straight of 15+ players sitting semi-afk at Vox/Naggy/CT/whatever.
- IB merges with some of the midtier raiding guilds, forms Transatlantic Rampage.
- Late classic DA falls apart to drama (I think?).
- TMO can't break Fear.

- KUNARK LAUNCHES -
- TR still runs the show. Splinter guilds of DA (forgot the names, Dozekar was one of them?) get some random ez mobs on the side. TR farms Trakanon for teeth to get ready for Veeshan's Peak.
- TMO wipes in Droga meanwhile and loses locket camp they were trying to lock down.
- Veeshan's Peak constantly delayed.
- TR starts to wear thinner on numbers while waiting for new content.
- Leftover DA guilds and TMO form a megazerg and throw 100+ players at Trak to kill it. Gets rewarded teeth off random GM events and whatnot in solB. Starts to have enough teeth to be VP ready.
- VP finally released. TR and TMO forced to /random the dragons, forced rotation.
- TR teams up with Vesica Dei to compete with TMO zerg.
- Petitionquest wars. Paypalminda main raid GM. Horrible times ensue.
- TR reforms as IB to try to sneak in VP kills. Something about TMO leaving PD up for a stupid long time which pissed them off so they went for it. VP rotation breaks. Train wars. The bigger zerg triumphs.
- Mobs split back and forth between IB and TMO. Some major petitionquest suspension drama occurs, both guilds suspended, but then randomly TMO gets unsuspended, IB gets mad af, RMTs off server.
- Leftover memberbase joins VD. VD trolled and griefed off server by TMO.
- Bregan D'Aerth (sp?) becomes #2 raid guild of server by default since only guild to do upper sky islands etc. Leftover IB/VD join BDA.
- TMO happy about BDA competing. Then BDA actually gets some mobs. TMO then declares BDA is scum and is secretly IB/VD in disguise and needs to be griefed off the server as well.
- One happy Trakanon attempt, TMO wipes their first engage. BDA calmly clears juggs and goes in, TMO snipes FTE and petitions that their 6 rez effex'd half-naked people running into it were a raid force, they want the loot. GM gives them the loot. TMO brags in RnF and claims they'll do this to BDA scum every raid from now on.
- BDA adopts the FTE over all strat. Starts to just port random teams of monks to Hate to jav Inny as TMO is engaging, petitions, actually gets loot. TMO cries foul in RnF and how unfair this is.
- BDA actually puts up a fight, recall taking 3 VS in a row. Internal drama happens, VD/IB populance wants more strict raiding requirements etc DKP and whatnot.
- Forceful Entry splits off BDA. Fights with TMO, takes time to get off, actually starts to dominate content outside VP. TMO brags how VP is all that matters and they need to come there to fight. Train wars are the best thing in game says TMO.
- FE goes to VP. TMO parks their entire raid out of zone boundaries so they don't get trained cuz train wars are the best thing in game (?!).
- FE can't compete with the zerg # and all the bought toons with rez sticks and whatnot preparked in the zone. Sloan is a goof and spends 20h play sessions with some other dudes wasting time training Necrious and whatnot all day long. Guild leadership neglects rest of targets, people get fed up, results are bad.
- FE falls apart as such. Scrapes some crap mobs here and there. Sloan poofs. Horrible times of career idiot Shinko as guildleader.
- IB starts to come back to server after waking Sleepy on EQmac and ruining their lives there. Teams up with FE to compete with TMO again.
- IB/FE vs TMO is trucking along, whatevs, same old. VP still under TMO controls sans some random dragons here and there sniped by preparking. Phara Dar once, big deal apparently.
- Froovygate happens. Major TMO members caught duping and RMTing, also one of their top officers (I think?) decided to ninja loot some Druushk loot when salty and mad about losing it. Rogean raid suspends TMO for like a month or something.
- Zeelot ragequits server when seeing the writing on the wall. TMO left in shambles.
- Server raid suspended as playerbase meant to come up with their own rotation ideas to let everyone get merbs from here on out.
- Weeks of nothing happening as any agreement is shot down by salty BDA leadership.
- Rogean puts foot down and enforces a rotation with tier system.
- FE/IB vs TMO leftovers, new raid rules, no VP training now, other humbug all around. Coth ducking is a thing now. Casuals get mobs too and form their own rotation for them.
- Casual rotation falls apart due to too many alliances and small guilds joining in. Big surprise. BDA and Taken, the top 2 guilds, throw the rotation out the window and just eat all the casual mobs themselves. Divinity takes the rest. CSG is formed (think it was Europa, Omni, aaand something) to compete with Divinity over the leftovers of leftovers.
- FE goes full scum and teams up with TMO to form a new megazerg mother of all megazergs. 120 player Xygoz raid. Disgusting. IB left with 20ish people to compete on their own.
- IB fights back, FETMO megazerg starts dwindling as late Kunark goes along. IB pulls together. Guildleader Getsome disappears on a fishing trip.
- IB reforms as Rampage due to said fishing trip. They were raid suspended at the time of reform, asked GM if they're still raid suspended, was told no, went for a Nexona. FETMO cried foul, Rampage offered to give up Nexonas to compensate in spite of being allowed by staff to kill stuff. FETMO cried no, demands week of free mobs. Didn't get any of such.
- Rampage vs FETMO back and forth no one has a real advantage, primarily due to Nalken's scripts and macros to secure them PDs.
- FETMO reforms as Forsaken. Same thing, different name. Gets raid suspended first week of their formation since genius leader thought they could go snipe R tier mobs from BDA and Taken. Rogean said nope.
- Same old back and forth continues.

- VELIOUS LAUNCHES -
- Serverwide tier system rotation gone completely.
- Rampage runs the show and gets most everything. Locks down ST keys. Farms content for some months for free. Gets all the relevant server firsts.
- Forsaken teams up with Asgard and Taken to zerg it up. Trains and dramas and whatnot.
- Coth ducking wars and other lame nonsense and zerg rushing. Think Taken ditched the Forsaken&Asgard team and teamed up with Rampage? Don't remember this part too well, I ragequit due to the good vyemm eye going to a shaman (he had the wrong face too /nod).
- Rampage calls it quits after Forsakengard snipes a Vulak and gets server first Gharns I think? Wakes up Sleepy on their way out to piss people off. Good riddance monk robes.
- Leftover Rampage form Bacon or something. Teams up with Taken and forms Awakened after a bit. Forsakengard merge to form Aftermath because they wanted to be earlier on /who all guild searches or something stupid.
- BDA leaves server. Bye.
- Divinity also vanished at some point. RIP oldest guild on server. Think Europa has that crown now?
- Some departed IB comes back to form Rustle because ???. Didn't get the big red carpet hero welcome invitation to Awakened that they expected, got salty, dedicated their time to petitionquesting against Awakened and teamed up with Aftermath and told them how to kill Tunare and how to do the ring war.
- Bunch of petitionquest wars occur. Tons of suspensions and nonsense.
- Current state. Alot of casual guilds have died down. Rustle seems to be pretty much gone. CSG seems to be trying alot less. A/A farming server with same old back and forth."


Thanks exactly the info I seek!
Incomplete summary of Velious era.

No mention of of instant pulls with ToV binds. Casuals crying they can’t complete then raid rules changed to have most unclassic form of raiding with FTE racing implemented with 1 hour lockouts.

Casuals get what they wanted with having rules changed for a year but choose not to compete because of some other excuse as to why A/A are losers for staring at the door in ToV for 16 hours straight and they’re cool.

At some point everyone comes to their senses and agrees staring at a door is retarded and staring at stairs is a lot healthier.

AM gets suspended several times over technicalities including crying wolf and not keeping track of windows for csg.

AW gets suspended multiple times over Vulak pixel lust.

A/A eat simultaneous 10 day suspensions that benefit no one but casuals. Getsome comes back from fishing trip and organizes megacasual dragon lottery festivals.

AW eats another suspension over Vulak and AM offers casual pixel lottery festival but casuals decline to take AM’s “table scraps”

FTE races designed to give casuals a chance to compete are DT’ed along side Rustle as a guild simultaneously.

A/A rejoice and try to cooperate in order to prevent petition quest. It doesn’t last. Staff gets fed up and increases suspension lengths.

AW gets suspended some more over Vulak pixel lust and get to raid for roughly 1.5 weeks in 2018. Lack of Vulak pixels tears AW apart.

Tempest is cobbled together from the remnants of AW with massive DKP banks looking to acquire Vulak pixels for the work they did starting at a door and stairs in AW.

Core was formed and has been suspended since inception.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

Killing Awakened was the highlight of Velious, much better than warder loot.

My favorite highlight was you leaving for tmo, then begging to let you back in because you realized what a mistake you made

DA formed in April of 2010 on P99. Fish Bait was a zerg guild lead by Salty that mass recruited everyone they could. The core of FB split off and dumped Salty to form DA which was lead by Durison. DA and IB went neck to neck for awhile in classic. One tid bit I feel that got left off that list was the drama around Xzerion, server dev and leader (or officer?) of IB, supposedly adding a TT spawn in Vox's lair where DA was camping out during a server reset.
