Okay, I go to an area chat, and I see this, go to another one, seeing it again. So I screen capped. I mean, why are you the Anti-Zerg Alliance and "zerg" recruiting now?



And of course these is the requiem of heaven thing... I mean common guys, wassup? You gonna be Rakada and Legend #2 now? So much for "Anti-Zerg"

If I remember correctly, when some guilds talked during the AZA meeting, it was said that "Passion, No Matter the Cost, Something Terable are zerg guilds" by Korded and Luminous Force.

It was said that guilds that are going into the AZA will go against these "zerg guilds" and that they will not spam "Area/LFG/Trade" chat to recruit members.

So why the hell Am I seeing these guilds zerg recruit? Malicious Intend? Requiem of Hell?

And in fact, I went on Passion, No Matter the Cost, and Something Terable's website.

http://somethingterable.com/recruitment

BOTH Passion and NMTC have a strict recruiting proceedure

And it looks like Something Terable takes member from the Something Aweful forum and/or recommendation into the guild

How the hell are these guilds zerg guilds, according to Korded and now Pungy? Pungy wanted to talk to me about "political alliance", and half of the time during our conversation is about how Passion is a zerg guild. And then what do I see?

MI and RoH both zerg recruit. Great. Awesome. Thanks guys for showing me what you guys are like.

I did a test, made an alt, got to level 20, and applied to MI in game, was accepted immedieatly, gquit, applied to ROH, was asked to join RoHeaven -->Feeder guild, applied accepted without quesiton, gquit. Then I applied to the 3 so called "Zerg guild" was asked to fill out application on their website, and Passion asked for an interview on mumble before accepting, while Something Terable talked to me in game. ZERG GUILDs you say? You guys are the most zergy guild. I'm so tired of seeing all of your mudslinging just because you can't win election as the 1st place.

http://www.maliciousintent.net/?page_id=562 --> Please use in game app. Applied, immediately accepted.

I can't even find a website for RoH.

And all those talks about balls and [filtered] during the original AZA meetings? Yeah. I wish I recorded it. I don't even know how Dragonmuse and Sinndra deals with the like of you. Or for that matter, why are they still associating themselves with AZA, probably just for votes. OH and of course, that wonderful human being Destin who is trying to get Valentino to sign some contract. How about you guys stop arguing, both AZA and SPECTRE and actually do something for the Dragonfall server community? Won't be joining either AZA or SPECTRE now that PVP vanarchy is coming out soon.

The whole server is tired of seeing political bickering, and for the past two days, SPECTRE leaders/members haven't said anything but "let's stop this" while AZA just kept on going. Making a name for you guys now, AZA, I'm glad I didn't take Pungy's offer to join your alliance.

So this is a call for both sides to stop and focus on whats important. I am glad that SPECTRE decided to distance itself from all this, last time I talked to Valentino, he is planning the next event for Dragonfall, what are you doing now AZA? For the past 3 days, all I see is your members posting attacks on Valentino, and the SPECTRE guild, I could careless if they are true or not, funny thing is, I don't even see any proof, so its about time you guys stopped, and do something for the community like SPECTRE. Am I disappoint to find that AZA is in fact, formed by zerg guilds. =(

And the funny thing is, I bet AZA will attempt to change topic in this tread saying something about "OH WE JUST WANT TO KEEP THE SEVER AT 1%".

You know what? I see Passion, Something Terable, No Matter The Cost all at 1%.

Will they up the tax? We will see in 1 week, then I wonder what these 2 alliances are going to say about each other. So glad PVP Vanarch is coming out.

There's some interesting stuff here. I've learned better than to ask questions on this forum, so I appreciate the post.

I can't wait to see how J tries to defend this one. This is what I have been trying to tell everyone about RoH as well.

Well...

I'm not gonna answer to anything else but our link - that forum is way outdated and we haven't used it for ages..

http://nomatterthecost.enjin.com/

Is our website and have been since live of TERA.

The op post in 'guilds on dragonfall' have not been updated - despite me having posted twice in it.

Ok, firstly, posting guild recruiting messages in LFG once per hour or two is not zerging. Spamming LFG chat with recruiting messages every 5 minutes is.

Secondly, accepting all our applicants is not zerging, spamming invites is.

Since we have lost a lot of our casual players to other games (D3, Other Betas) we have widened opened up our recruiting practices to get some fresh active players.

You will notice that when I accepted your app, I invited you to register on our forums and come hang out with us on teamspeak. You choose your level of participation in the guild. If you choose not to participate, you get weeded out. If you choose to become a contributing member of the guild(casual or super active) then we keep you if you want to stay.

You guys are trying to justify calling us out on all this off stuff. I just don't get it. I mean really? How much time do you have on your hands to do this stuff? What are you, "Chris Hansen Dateline NBC" I am not out trying to catch people doing sh*t, I just come across this crap and when people decide to call me out on stuff, I respond to it.

If you really want to know what MI is all about, I invite you to join us, hang out in teamspeak with us, come run some dungeons with us, level a toon with us. But you are never going to learn anything about us, who we are, and what we represent using baseless attacks.

Throughout all this, only one person has taken the time to whisper me and actually talk to me to get real answers, real responses, in real time.

You notice that 90% of the people on these forums dont even use their main's name. Well guess what, I do, because I have nothing to hide. you want to troll behind your anonymity, fine, or you can grow a pair and talk to me in game or teamspeak.

Going forward, I am not going to respond to posts like this on the forums, clearly your goal is to get a rise out of me, and its not going to happen. If you want answers confront me in game, or on teamspeak. Record it for all I care and then post it here so the truth can be heard. But I am not going to waste my time on this forum anymore because it is clear what everyone's motives are

I don't get the name of AZA, what's considered a Zerg? every guild that has 300 members? If you wanna be an anti-zerg guild, you should probably stay small like Zeal, anime etc...

I don't understand how 1 screen cap of 1 message in area chat is proof AZA is zerging

Who cares, move on and play your political MMo.

I'm pretty sick of hearing people talking about RoH Zerg recruiting. We only allow in members who are in the same levels as our guild members in order to recruit members that can level together. I have no intention of ever leaving RoH and "feeding" into another guild. I'm new to MMOs in general, but I feel as though this is getting stupid. Leave it alone and move on.

What I don't get is why anyone cares about this [filtered] anymore. If you haven't realized it by now, vanarch is basically just a 3,000g mount for your guild, with the ability to moderate a very small amount of cost to the player base in that area. Seriously, this whole up in arms thing about taxes, 10% of a gold is 1 silver..you really care about 1 silver that much?

Are many of these guilds (and especially their leaders) taking this vanarchy thing a little too seriously, hell yes. Does that mean you need to act all butt hurt every time someone makes a recruitment post? Every time I see someone put an advert up in LFG channel I block that person, and problem solved. Personally the few players I've grouped with from RoH (both it's feeder guild and the hell) have been sub-par and underwhelming. At the end of the day, I mostly group with my guildmates who are more reliable and typically more talented than puggers by far. Maybe before you work yourself up into having a stroke you should take a step back and really consider what you're so upset about. No wait, I was wrong, take a step forward...now take a step back....and now take a step forward....and now we're cha cha'ing!
