I present the following poll for those whom wish to partake. NFA as a guild caught my eye early on; they are not your average mass invite guild. No, they do much more; their tactics often looked upon as being pusillanimous. Their leaders, in my opinion, are not currently worthy of the title, lacking the core elements that are required in order to run an effective guild. Now, this would be a problem, if they were out to be any good at all.

The average NFA player, without four to fifty members by his side, stands little chance against most players. Some may view their larger roaming groups as a well-organized guild, almost as if they have a plan. If you look a bit deeper you will see that is not true. They display the battlefield awareness of chickens with their heads cut off. The healers enjoy either hiding in safe zones or simply running away from their group if targeted. Their tanks think they are dps, and their dps have no kill order or focus target. You'll often find them all attacking different targets, never the healers, hoping that one of their super combo's may just line up with another players for a kill.

Personally, I do not mind NFA in game, they pose no challenge at all. It will be a good feeder guild for the virtuous guilds out there. Perhaps one or two standout members will be picked out, or get bored with the lack of achievement.

If you are a member of this guild, and not timorous to voice your opinion, you may want to delve a bit deeper into the leadership structure and question their motives. Guilds like this feed of their less than brilliant zerglings, making them think they should donate their in game currency, items and time to a greater cause.

There is no greater cause here. NFA, just like that hypostomus plecostomus (sucker fish) you had in your fish tank as a adolescent, are just here to scoop up the excrement from the server. They may even win some battles, but it won't be due to a skilled 5 man roaming group, it will be from zerg tactics.

On a final note, I would like to offer my succor to this guild. In my eyes I would love for this server to be known as one of the best PvP servers Tera has seen. I'd be enthusiastic to talk with your leadership, implement an actual working structure and help them weed out some of those players who haven't a clue what they are doing. This may require a leadership restructure, and I would be charging a pretty fair but high gold rate, but in the end I could make you a wholesome guild. I'd not want to join NFA during this process; having the tag above my head is not to my penchant.

Think about it, step past your mindset that you know what you are doing, and seek real help. I have an established track record of leading guilds, and helping guilds, to being great.

The poll above should shine some light on what the rest of the server thinks. If I have any instinct on matters, you may be a bit miffed by the results. This is merely a stepping stone to realize what I say is true. I just hope you don't have your members skew the poll dramatically in your favor, as that would just substantiate once again how out of touch you are with the state of things.

God Bless

The subject of NFA has been covered intensively by the world press over the past decade. Many an afternoon has been enjoyed by a family, bonding over the discussion of NFA. Cited by many as the single most important influence on post modern micro eco compartmentalism, its influence on western cinema has not been given proper recognition. It is an unfortunate consequence of our civilizations history that NFA is rarely given rational consideration by the aristocracy, who are yet to grow accustomed to its disombobulating nature. With the primary aim of demonstrating my considerable intellect I will now demonstrate the complexity of the many faceted issue that is NFA.

Social Factors

Society begins and ends with NFA. When Thucictholous said 'people only know one thing' [1] he borrowed much from NFA. Much has been said about the influence of the media on NFA. Observers claim it helps to provide some sort of equilibrium in this world of ever changing, always yearning chaos.

Special care must be taken when analysing such a delicate subject. On the other hand anyone that disagrees with me is an idiot. It breaks the mould, shattering man's misunderstanding of man.

Economic Factors

There has been a great deal of discussion in the world of economics, centred on the value of NFA. Of course, NFA fits perfectly into the Spanish-Armada model, a lovely model.
National
Debt

Clearly the graphs demonstrates a strong correlation. Why is this? It goes with out saying that the national debt plays in increasingly important role in the market economy. In the light of this free trade must be examined.

Political Factors

Politics, we all agree, is a fact of life. Comparing NFA and much of what has been written of it can be like comparing playing with a puppy and singing with a blackbird.

To quote the uncompromising Kuuipo Rock 'The success of any political system can only truly be assessed once the fat lady has sung.' [2] Primarily, he is referring to NFA. It would be wise to approach the subject with the thought that 'if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all'. However this can lead to missing out important facts.
Where do we go from here? Only time will tell.

Conclusion

In conclusion, NFA plays a large part in the lives of all. It enriches, influences the influencers, and it brings the best out in people.

Let's finish with a thought from star Elvis J. Fox: 'At first I was afraid I was petrified. Thinking I could never live without NFA by my side.' [3]

My name is Cabbage and I approve this message.

what the [filtered] am i reading

You might want to consider the level of seriousness you are putting on this. Next time you are in the shower, let that quiet moment of reflection help bring some perspective to your life choices.

You seem to be way overthinking the impact of a guild that is basically a few hundred people from an anonymous imageboard coming together to play tera for [filtered]s and giggles.

I'll leave you with this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBn9Vn8Y6i8

It's almost as if someone is taking this WAY too seriously.

This clearly demonstrates exactly the type of behavior exhibited by Magra's post. A guild full of gelatinous brain matter -- "how do I check my friends list" -- and zergling tactics -- "wow Cutthroat has a good half of our guild in it, so I think it's pretty safe" -- I think it's safe to say no one is timid of this ant-like behavior.
