Can we at least be the weird druid people instead of the Arthurian knockoffs? :smith:

Since they have this race:


Silverhands

The Silverhands have a long tradition of tremendous sacrifice. When they come of age, each member of this race gives up their right arm as a sign of dedication to the Realm.


I say yes.

List of inevitable occurrences in every mmo with goons:
- launch schism creates a large goon group and a small goon group
- goons find a guild leader pubbie to focus their anger on
- large and small goon group try to work together, fun is had initially
- large goon group has a schism, over pedos, or stealing or some poo poo
- smaller goon group absorbs members, is disliked by those in the other group
- most goons quit
-fauxtool figures out how to win the whole game and make money while doing it, making everyone else question why we play these stupid games

Yeah sans pedo thing, that has happened on literally every new MMO I've seen goons get into. Just add in an off site that is run by someone who goes on a power trip and starts banning people who disagree with them.

I remember one time when we were in a zone on Indar like maybe Abandoned NS Offices? I think?

GOKU was fighting Buzzcut directly, and GOON pushed up and just started making GBS threads on the TR only from across a ridge

pretty funny

I CANNOT HANDLE BEING CALLED OUT ON MY DUMBASS OPINIONS ABOUT ANTI-VIRUS AND SECURITY. I REALLY LIKE TO THINK THAT I KNOW THINGS HERE

INSTEAD I AM GOING TO WHINE ABOUT IT IN OTHER THREADS SO MY OPINION CAN FEEL VALIDATED IN AN ECHO CHAMBER I LIKE

The same exact thing happened in a browser based MMO I played in a goon guild on and in a free everquest shard. Goons want to play games, they just can't do it for too long together.

We need to convince crushboss to make some of his awesome videos for this game once/if it goes live. He made goons look 100 times more badass than we actually were.

We were in the main goon guild until the pedo stuff arose, then we became goonfuckers. Watching the fishing drama from the outside was hilarious, since we were out killing fishers also while using the "something lawlful" tag that made pubbies blame the bigger group.

Also, if you remember when Wicked got really mad that one of the goon officers killed one of their officers and stole a bunch of trade packs, that was us too.

E: it was the defending of the pedos that made us leave. Didn't want it to sound like we were part of the goons who went pirate because they were mad that the pedos got booted.

holy poo poo that Wicked thing was a huge meltdown and I just assumed that it was some goons being goons, its way better that it wasn't even people in the same guild

after that happened I had Wicked officers try to steal thunderstrucks right in front of me at my hidden tree farms and I got on their teamspeak or whatever and made fun of them till I got kicked from the TS server
