It really is like that, I've done tons of shit for guldies and at the same time I treat everyone else outside of the guild like shit.
Every 8th ring I stole went right back into my guild.

Well Azure guard wasn't really competitive with TMO back in the day. I never pick on new players or newbs something.
With limited raid time and big guilds, the question became, do you try to split VT and clear it with 30 or try to clear more content with 60, since each zone will be faster. And the guilds I've been in chose to do big raids and clear more. And splitting isn't always possible, depending on who shows up on a given night (usually clerics or warriors were the limiting factor but it could also be bodies).
For the time I had, the other option was a more casual guild that's not even trying to finish the expansion and likely even less efficient.

A lot of it hinges on ruleset. People are excited now, but there's a not unreasonable chance that the rules for the servers will be dogshit and half the people choose to not bother.

Well.. that's more like the EQ I remember. Bring on the trolls. We are really efficient when we want to be. I don't know what it would take to "dethrone" anyone in their eyes but honestly, you can't win even if you wanted to with some people. In EQ, you can do something faster, more efficiently, etc. and they'll just gripe about something you exploited or whatever.
Sounds like some butthurt troll looking to stir the pot because he cherishes pixels way too much but maybe I missed the joke and he's trolling just to get a rise or some hype going. All in all, this is the EQ I know and love. I never took it personal and especially don't today. I have too much RL going on but stuff like this temps me to poopsock as well.
I will say this... it's hard for me to believe that Zaide wasn't respected by most. Maybe i'm blind or naive but we always seem to have some good camaraderie. Every guild has their turds but we had a really good time all the time I was with Faceless.
March can't come soon enough now. lol

Lets not forget "speed records and how TL sucked not beating them" and all kinds of other nonsense here. That's really sick hitting a target no one is aware of or even aiming for if you want to compete against no one but yourself. Especially with different XP rates, server rules, and guilds. FINALLY after so much talk were going to see how bad TL is as they plan on competing head to head on whatever server Faceless is on.
Sounds like a win win for a guild comparing themselves to TL and TL loving competition from their side. Thraka and Grisvok are 2 of the strongest leaders these servers have ever seen so you know you are going up against the full force of TL / AoS here which should be exciting to watch the races for 1st regardless.

I have some experience with both guilds, but only from Phinigel and Agnarr. I didn't TLP really prior to Phinny so I don't have any experience with either guild from prior. It's a little bit apples to oranges to compare the 2 launches. Phinny had a dramatically worse xp rate, coupled with Agnarr having a bonus xp weekend the very first weekend it was open. This resulted in people needing to kill about half as many mobs to reach level 50. AoS had an advantage of a good portion of the core of the guild came over from Ragefire so it was much more established and organized at the beginning. The early stages of Agnarr were a mess. There were far less TLP veterans and it was much less organized, which can probably be expected based on the different situations. The early Agnarr raids were honestly pretty infuriating with things like trying to use warrior tanks instead of knights out of some kind of tradition or something? But it all generally resulted in dead dps/healers and general chaos in regards to mob positioning and so on. This isn't intended as a snipe at Faceless, and I'm sure it got worked out later on but Agnarr launch was't ideal.
All that being said, I look forward to enjoying some good times.

I expect something in the ballpark of this. The surprise could be in the wrong direction too!
