:/

Worked fine on Tallon Zek for the time it did work. We, the Merciless Midgets (all shortie) and me as the GL didn't adhere to the culture that came around where it's "Light vs Dark" and we killed anything taller than us (gnomes, halflings, and dwarves). And we especially despised a guild that was primarily High Elf as they were very homosexual in appearance and I didn't want to be a part of their "team"...that guild was Celestial Order or something. So we could already kill them without the /guildwar but WITH /guildwar there were no level limits. The MMs were low levels for the most part, only a few 50s but tons of 30s and under as so many people had alts who wanted to be a part of it. The other guild was 3x bigger and almost all 48+... we agreed to it and had the time of our lives for 14 days or so. I remember they corpse camped a guildie for 12 days in rotation in the OOT and took pride that one of our 50s couldn't play...meanwhile his alt MM, myself and the rest of our 40-50s were slaughtering Faydark elves without protection. Fun stuff. So I don't think the /guildwar thing is broken THAT much, the pvp works fine as it always did, I think it just removes the level limit to any level can pvp with opposing guild tags. That, in my estimation, is what needs to be enabled. Pvp works fine right? Otherwise we couldn't /duel. I just can't imagine its that hard to enable /guildwar... had to be something else behind the scenes why it was a short lived feature on live.

Don't get me wrong, it was a lot of fun. But it really was WAY buggy. I remember guildchat and tells with the bad guys loling and complaining about how fubar the pvp was [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

pretty hilarious how he guildwared divinity yet Nalkin categorically refuses to duel me.

Last time I accepted a duel from Geegoo was in gfay at the wizard spires. I didn't even have a pet out when I accepted (thats how bad I knew i would pwn him). I then summoned a pet at which point Geegoo bard speed ran all the way to crushbone and around the far end of the zone. I sat at the spires talking to people for a while and eventually forgot I had even dueled him because he never came back. After a half hour I camped out.

Am I remembering wrong? I thought ERG was grouping, raiding and PKing with humans and shorts from near the start of the guild? Maybe it happened later, but I distinctly remember disliking y'all for making a mockery of elfin purism lol.

ok maybe a little lol BUT.. we didnt guild anyone other then elves.
we aligned with -The First Dwarven Brigade- alot early on, who guilded dorfs and gnomes i think??
wasnt until pop or somethin that ERG invited a few barb shamans/missing classes etc as guild alts, which lead to looser invites for other races which lead to everyone moving to SS and ERG basically died.

Edit: actually... i dont think there was any other race invites cept alts. and even then im not sure if they were guilded??
they were for raid purposes only, but yea. it opened the door for everyone to move to SS where they could invite all their toons and other races

A little? You disgraced every player with a yellow name. Dwarves are food, not friends :/

guess we were sorta anti-pkish
we had a mutual agreement to defend our zones/races ie, ERG=Gfay and FDB=BB and we allowed those tags to roam each zone.
we werent purists to the point of killin anyone and everyone
we just killed anyone attacking elves (or us) and killed anyone or any guild on the KOS list.

back on topic: i remember after about a week you guys started losing members and those still in guild started going /anon
thats the memory i have of those couple weeks, sorry lol
iirc that was a 30 day war?? and who was your character? i started gettin along with the leader much much later
so late in fact i think he was the only one left in guild lol
me and a friend were just about to join him then could never find him online again =/
