New guild system

[GeeDee]

So what do people think?

This new system has utterly destroyed SleepingDragons. Now THC have no competition for bosses.
We are a guild of 85 players. We were 100. 15 Players left the guild because the buff was too tempting.

When I log on to do groups, we are lucky to get 10 players. This is at peak time (5pm onwards). This time last week, we were struggling to get players into two groups.

SleepingDragons members do not want to quit the guild, so a lot have just stopped playing the game.
I know people will say, adapt and shrink the guild. BUT really? IS this fair that I have to kick people that have families? Or Jobs? Or real life issues? If i kick those people, they will quit the game, 100%.

People rely on the higher levels for fun boss hunts and leveling hunts. IF they have no higher levels to hunt with, they will not play the game.

I could easily quit SD and just go in a 10 man guild of people who play 15+ hours a day, but i do not want this. Casual players make the game what it is. They make the guild chat more fun, they contribute a lot on hunts and they seem to enjoy playing so much more than us addicts.

We have basically been forced to split up due to the OPness of the guild buffs. 30%? WTF IS THAT?

Should be 15% maximum. Should not be drops gold and exp, only EXP.



I just wondered, is it only me who has seen a massive decrease in players since the update?

I do not want to hear from THC. You guys have EXACTLY what you wanted. You have a guild of 20 people, without jobs, who play 20 hours a day. Before you comment, my response is, stop been selfish and think of the server.

If I could be arsed I'd look up your posts to find one about how SD dominate THC equal numbers blah blah blah.

So much for that......


P.S. According to Lomcn, Zircon currently has 300 players online at 8pm UK - doesn't seem like a 'massive' decrease to me.

I have never said we dominate THC equal numbers? IN FACT i have said the exact opposite on the DMW post.

THC WILL ALWAYS dominate equal numbers because ur all sad, have no jobs, no families, no girlfriends etc. You have a CORE of 20 members who play the game about 15 hours per day. I heard its a NECESSITY for your members to play a certain amount of hours per day.

The only way THC can lose is if they are out numbered, now Jamie has made it so you will NEVER be out numbered ever again.

Money talks.

I've not seen an equal numbers fight since the patch to be fair, I don't think we've ran much more than 10 players since.

HA all thc got 2 screens each of us got a screen tho observer players .. or farm gold

Completely agree.
Regardless of it being our guild or not i would not want anyone quitting the server... NOT even THC as its pointless without competition.
More and more people we know are leaving server or only logging in til their buffs run out. Mir has always been a community game. SD were not the only large guild AAO, Hogwarts and Neworder all have good numbers. No competition if people leave. Mir has always been about the people.

Only thing I’d of said is it should of been 20–40-60 members instead of 10-20-30.

Sleeping dragons should never of been allowed to grow to the size it was/is.

100 is far to high of a cap for the user count, 50 should of been absolute limit.

But then on the flip side other than mass recruiting how can you compete with a guild like thc who never seem to log / donate stupid money

Nobody can compete with them now.

The server count it sadly dropping and its sad for those of us who played all through alpha and has high hopes for the server x

 

[shinsu]

stupid system.....clearly money came up with it :/

 

[Mythra]

100 in guild, 30-35 online, 10-15 active (actual numbers, not made up **** like all of you are doing). Stop spouting nonsense about SD being MUCH bigger than any other guild by a huge margin because our 15man hunting group was made up of 2 guilds.

Only in weekends did we have more players active because SD is not a guild made up of 24/7 jobless ****s like THC is.

I used to lead THC, the core was closer to 10 players and the majority have jobs, families and wives/gfs (myself included) but if it makes you feel better to think of us as you've described then great

SD is not a guild made up of 24/7 jobless ****s like THC is.

See above.....

Only Hells donates a lot in THC.

The new patch seems to have effected the smaller guilds too, I left NewOrder before the change came in, at that time they were 85+ Members running two full groups for each evenings “Guild Hunt”. In the matter of 5 days they have reduced to around the 50-60 mark and I’ve already watched my brother and other friends say they are going to shelf it and take some time out to play/do other things. The server was in a fantastic place no more than a week ago but I’ve barely found the motivation to even login the last few days.

lol what u talk about i seen like 40 SD at tiger today
couldn`t even approach it xDDD

 

[Sedge]

I agree the guild buff is ridiculous and should never have been brought in. The buff is just too big and rewards the smaller guilds. How can you call 10 players a guild when the maximum group size is 15?

 

[Fitz]

unfortunately a lot have lost motivation

 

[Fitz]

Hells we don't have 40 people online in guild right now. We had about 8 during the day today and 25 this evening but not all came. a lot are quitting the server.

If you played all through alpha i'd just like to take a moment to thank you for giving jamie either no feedback or completely dog **** feedback.


I've quit because the server is a mess, absolutely nothing to do with the last patch.

 

[Fusion]

i agree, this new patch not good for the community

the problem i see the time jamie see's people leaving it will be to late..

i would hope he fix this before its to late
