Monq was good. I think Genj is talking about Arlos. Manalope had skills.
Shadowspear was a legend because he pushed retard to the next level and then beyond.

My introduction to FoH was actually an article written by Oloh(sp?) about Vanguard around 2005. You guys remember Oloh? I think he was a lawyer who worked either for SoE or Sigil at the time. I was looking up info on the game cuz some old EQ players in my wow guild would talk about it.
Found the Vanguard thread on the first FoH site and got to see Brad McQuaid's almost daily 10-paragraph posts in it. I wish someone had backed up the old site so I could go back to read some of it.
What cemented my love for this board was the Millie guy pretending to be a girl for years on here.

That RZTW encounter apparently broke the old system on multiple servers then. Because it was this that caused the implementation of the new 72 person raid system.
I would love if someone had a screesnhot of a RZ zerg. Hundreds. Not "oh, about a hundred." No. The ability to nab that flag, and fucking up the cockblock and letting even a few casual scum into plane of time, was something that happened all of a sudden. We had 3 main guilds. One of which was arch enemies with us.
But nothing solidifies the opposition like a cockblck.
Raids were diff pre-72 person raid mechanics. No raid channel. Try to commandeer /shout if too many guilds.
I think the FoH story is, there are the pace setters, and then there are all the guilds that tried to match that pace and approach in some way. Those guilds then owned their respective servers. But the people who gather here, I am assuming, are either FoH or FoH adjunct, or who played another game with someone from FoH, or were following certain shared basic efficiencies that accomplished the same goals.

I quit EQ mid-PoP, so I never saw the raid cap. Our guild (Element of Darkness) died due to poaching (FoH and Afterlife poached some key players), people moving to other games, and core players not wanting to deal with yet another rebuild. Then I was rejected from other guilds due to, and I quote, “war crimes”. LOL. So I said fuck it and quit the game.
Some of the core players had some quasi reforms into a guild in Shadowbane, City of Heroes, and lastly WoW in Vanilla. That is how I ended up on alliance...all the asslings wanted to role gnome and dwarf, so I abandoned my horde character and rerolled on their server

I haven't heard Lotus Cult in a long ass time.
I thought there was a guild on Quellious whose name started with "M" that was up there too, but it's been so fucking long now.
With FOH the forum? I'm pretty sure he doesn't, and for some reason I thought he had told people in IRC to let the forums die after the Req/Tyen fiasco.
He was probably right, LOL

When the once mighty Roman Church split in two, and kept fragmenting, and Byzantine, a strange land, claimed right, did they quit?
No.
Should they have?
Yes.

You are probably thinking of Vis Maior? Quellious represent! Them and Lotus Cult were kind of the 1-2 as far as I remember. I was in one of the "support" guilds and would sometimes raid Fear with them.

Yah, that was them.
EDIT: oh shit, do you remember ORQ? I think it was "Organized Raiders of Quelliuos" or something like that.

Wraith/Rev. Two guild (wraith was pretty mandatory raiding, rev was come as you please, shared dkp system).
We destroyed VM, then we destroyed LC.
The true test of a Quellious veteran: "The Darkoor Mistell"

ROFLIt was so weird to be like, hey, this guild brought me in and I met truly nice people, but then I'd see a fuckton of weird drama break out in chat involving the same guildmates and make this face:
