COMBINE TO CREATE

[Sev]

speaking of hnm, i hear you're considering merging with SnD? i'd figure i'd let you answer this to confirm/deny the rumors flying about.

There has been talks, no decision made by either shell, merge the two best shells claim wise (Atleast there are things emi has done SnD hasn't and things SnD has done emi hasn't, so I don't really care to get into a stupid debate over that.)

No its just Sevv being a major dick just because Emi has the #'s to claim we are automatically boting what a retard when he was on Lak he was the BIGGEST boter!!

Since when have I denied I bot, I even in this thread stated I have 2 packet bots that out preform what is on Lak atm. I was told y'all got Taj's bot, honestly I don't care too much if you do or don't if you bot then you have a reason to put time into hnms, if not then it is a huge time waste this is 2010.

Oh ya and don't forget how much of a huge prick I was when I was there... oh wait never mind I wasn't. Enjoy the mpk shells from Garuda tho.

You are merging it's no point in denying it. This thread made me lulz. "Taj bot" huh lmao. Oh man. See you soon Sevv....

We have two very different loot systems one shell has been around since '04 one is new. I won't let my members get dicked in this so really as it stands right now its 50/50. Sydney you owe me a meripo I wanna see your sam in action post amano. We are the smallest shell between the garuda and main lak shells anyways, but also have no problem as seen on garuda putting in the extra effort to secure claims.

You can have kings, i'll continue to enjoy PW and the other content.

If you do merge with SnD, more power to you. This little reunion will be fun for both sides I suppose.

I'm down man, keep in touch.

2 things...the SnD thats on Lakshmi now isnt the same SnD that was there in '04...they didn't even know how to spell "And" when they made the shell...its a pretty bad wannabe of SnD back in the day. Different loot system so its not even established etc

Sydney misses Kaitans...its pretty bad in meripo

[Demosthenes11]

i cant believe there are still people that:
1) claim they don't bot
2) care about bots
3/4) bring 40 people to aery or even have 40 active members in their ls

I don't usually post on BG, but I feel somewhat compelled regarding the Midgard-Quetz merger.

I find a lot of Cesaria's comments to be pretty false, sorry. I'm sure you're a nice person and I don't really know you. But this server is hardly full of drama, especially in comparison to some of the "notoriously" drama-filled servers. Midgard is a very historic server, with some historic moments, and it's sad to see the name go for that reason. But this isn't some server where endgame shells shit all over each other.

I have never found Dynamis to be an issue, nor do I find problems with groups being cut-throat about trading glasses. Though I am curious if you guys actually use this QCDN, or if it's some antiquated system? Some of your posts seem confusing about it, if you could clarify that'd be appreciated.

As to the quality/skill of the hnmls on Midgar, you should probably ask the people in those shells (EightBit, Persistence, LateNite, zEUs). Pretty sure Cesaria isn't in any of them. As for the general populace, I highly doubt it's more retarded than any other server.

To the endgame/HNM shells of Quetz, I wouldn't make assumptions based on what some of these random people are posting regarding Midgard. Hopefully you don't have this warped image of us before we even meet in a few weeks.

[Nishida]

Cesaria you don't even do endgame on midgard the hell are you talking about?

edit: skaphia beat me :3

[sleekmotorwurkz]

Things SnD has done that Emi hasnt? If youre talking about AV, congrats on having a bunch of kraken clubs. Aside from the fact most of the people who were in SnD for that AV kill arent anymore. Ill stick with PW thanks.

Enjoy your vicious reunion.

and what the fuck is a "taj" bot

I've hung around long enough to see most of what's gone on on Midgard since EU release - the server's one with one of the more "colourful" histories if you've been around long enough and enjoy people watching (which I do - it's actually quite interesting to see fortunes change, things rise and fall in popularity over time). Beats watching TV anyway. Sad to see the place where lots of the original NA beta crew ended up die the death it's going to - and actually quite angry over how SE have handled things like the name issue (you only have to see the number of people grabbing names/LS names etc to see that it's yet another SE cock up).

Dynamis has died down recently with the fall in population (but again, with populations being artificially increased by this - the old conflicts are going to re-emerge and with them, the old problems) - thankfully I go EU times now and there's less aggro over zones generally then. Still can't see a nice easily civilized us all adopting a dynamis calendar without a good few months of shitstorm considering it's something completely alien to an entire server of immigrants/refugees/fresh blood* (select according to your take on things). Going to make for some interesting times on a lot of servers I guess as there are so many different server specific quirks being clashed together quite spectacularly.

For some people it's going to breathe new life into the game, for some getting burnt on the game already I think it's going to backfire spectacularly and push people into quitting the game - not quite sure which way I'm going to swing on it just yet but SE aren't making my Christmas card list at present.

As I said, it's a historic server with many historic moments. But you "informing" Quetz hnmls of what they're in for is completely ignorant, and stirring the pot needlessly.

This is one of the tamest servers out there as far as inter-linkshell relations, whatsoever drama has happened over the years. Very rarely do you see Midgar shells fighting on these forums, or posting each other in gimp/random fail threads, etc.

The hnm shells may not all be BFF but we don't hate/shit all over each other. Since you're not in any of them, you shouldn't be acting so presumptious about "what Quetz is in for".

[HadesWeaponx]

it's actually quite interesting to see fortunes change

Go watch a soap opera...?

EDIT: On a serious note though, seeing and doing are two different things. I'm glad sitting on the sidelines has given you first hand experience on how the HNMing scene on Midgard is nowadays! (For clarification I'm Greg on Midgard, my username is a lie!)

We actually use it. Generally most ls are actually more than willing to change zones if you politely ask ahead of time which is why they get so pissed off when you randomly run into the middle of an entire ls waiting a few more minutes for stragglers and break your glass usually while insulting the ls you just zone jacked while giving the reason they picked the zone a ls was obviously about to enter or didnt bother to look for a time when the zone they wanted was open aka the rest of the entire day is "i'm in an hnmls."



How often does midgar ddo /shout stuff? it would be nice to see pickup endgame junk happen more often.

[Skaphia]

My linkshell doesn't jack a zone if we see another group gathering. That being said, would it be okay to not utilize QCDN in exchange for not being a dick at trail markings? Or does your community still prefer that all shells use QCDN anyway?

And can you give me a link to this QCDN calendar please?


Edit: You see shout pickups for JP salvage, but not so much with NA/EU. ZNM shout groups happen sometimes, usually for t1-t3. Can't think of much else, sorry.

[DAKPluto]

I think at this point its safe to say all the other mergers are pretty much gonna be a picnic compared to ours....

I've seen a few shouts for dyna-xarc..and like..maybe limbus and salvage..but rarely. Most people are LS events or bust. Not many people trust PuGs due to high probability of gimps..

[pixiehawk]

The resident pedo on Kujata is Ligerzero. He has openly admitted that he got arrested for child porn and is on home detention. Plus he always makes stupid ass shouts in whitegate + tries to cyber any taru characters. I'd wager 90% of the server has him blisted.

oh, yay

So, I should be glad to be a mithra and not a taru?

It would be easier to just use the calender even if it's just posting planned runs.
Basically stat of the month you post what you want/when. Then the mod checks for times when two people are entering at once and informs you guys about it. Then the two ls figure out amongst each other what they wanna do which is usually along the lines of " ill go xarc this time and pick x zone instead and change the next time i would have gone to X zone into a xarc.
Or you could just go look at the day rq to see where people have free. Most of the time most zones are free but with all of midgard coming in dynamis zones may be more packed which is gonna cause trouble.
