scamming was hilarious tho

One time a goon had a live one but didn't have the heart to go through with the basic recruiting scam. I took over, got the money and then felt really bad about it. Oh well, I don't feel bad anymore and I got to keep half the money :)

So I'm still playing this game and I am still having fun with it, believe it or not. I'm one of the goons that rolled east, along with some RL friends who are also goons, on Aranzeb. We've since formed a small guild of just the 4 to 5 of us and have been doing quite well for our selves. We managed to get most of us into varying illustrious gear and recently found a bunch of good, free land in arcum iris. We got 2 gazebo farms and a 16 x 16 and may get another gazebo and a large house spot in the same area. We mostly PVP in hasla, we were in markala for a while and were PVPing there too. This game may have its short comings but ultimately its a pretty okay game in my opinion and its worth my time. Just voicing my opinion here take it as you will.

All I'm going to say is that for all of its (many, many) faults and the lovely publisher, Archeage is the easiest game to troll in I've played in ages.

You'll be wanting vehicles to block/impede people by the way.

One thing that changes in this thread are the page numbers. That's about it though.

This just in: apparently Wicked has :splintered: due to much of the memberbase being unable to see eye-to-eye with the GM (Krogger). Something about FC spies (I hope they were the FC goons) and demanding that the GM step down, which of course Krogger being Krogger absolutely refused to do. I dunno, just what I've picked up from a few dorks here and there who used to be Wicked, I poked them to see what was up.

Even if most of the goons have quit the game entirely, there's a kind of schadenfreude or something that the guild that goons splintered into splintered in turn.

If there's any Wicked goons still following this thread, I'd like to hear your take on things.

The spy was none other than goon hero Nerdkiller.

[edit] Also the story is something like Krogger was groomed by some chick and let her decide who got loot or something through family chat and people got pissed or something.

I just wanted to use the word groomed.

Upon further review of the situation, it seems that Krogger really had it coming. Apparently he was trying to funnel guild poo poo towards some girl he had an e-boner for.

Cripes.

Repeat: are there any goons here with access to Wicked's internal forums? I really want to see if they went down in the flames that everyone is claiming they did.

Fair enough. I just tend to classify boners from their source, not necessarily their actual physical traits.

Didn't he already do that before when we were first allied with them? I thought I remember his established thing was to give guild assets to "girls."

virgin nerds teenagers always do this (to the best of my understanding...it could just be a stereotype)

and it has never, ever worked

right?

I mean, on the one hand, that isn't how attraction and romance and love and commitment works in the real world

on the other hand, everyone once in a while you hear about a couple that met online, in the game, being married (sometimes in NIGHT ELF HAVENSONG CITY or whatever)

so does it actually work like one miniscule p[ercent of the time, in this one particular community of insular dorks (no offense guys), and so, believing this minimal likelihood represents his best chance at female attention, he might actually be acting 100% logically in his case, in that context, doing it game after game until, hopefully, he does the equivalent of flipping HEADS forty times in a row?

Not when there was a real defense. Seeing as how the walls are using 1.8 patch health values and expecting lv 55 players to attack them. And the cannons on top of the walls shoot farther then the ones on the ground do and do a poo poo load of damage.

Their internal forums had nothing on it since they had just finished revamping it and it was a forum for a guild in an mmo so nothing was posted on there anyways. Nerdkiller told Enklaz and I that he was the FC spy for the past four months and told us to reroll east and join FC with him. He released one screenshot of Krogger's family chat where it showed Vendetta getting extremely pissed that someone else was tanking the Kraken and told Krogger to not give him the shield that dropped. Here's some stuff that he revealed.

Nerdkiller also wants to become a goon so someone spend :10bux: and get him an account.
