@ Banzie : I cannot do that, People in FA are free to do what they want, this a democracy ^^, and i know theres a lot of ex- IoJ who just want to go and sit in that BL.
Like i say i could care less IoJ, if i go to your BL preper to see a WP in your garrison.
Wait if its a democracy who is your leader/representative of your server (president)?
IOJ schooled FA tonight in keep defense in EB. Frankly, I’m mostly just proud of IOJ. We were disorganized and running multiple tags most of the night. FA is already in the karma train mentality and is getting soft I think. We had the map queued, and IOJ had (I’m guessing) 30 people on the map? Great job IOJ.
FA could be in for some rude awakenings once leagues are over and we’re at a population disadvantage again.
You seem to be forgetting that this is FA’s 8177168th week into leagues and the only server even close to a legitimately equal opponent we met in battle was SBI. You expect us to take every aspect of these match ups seriously? I don’t expect you to understand, but we’ve been frustrated with how little amount of competition we are getting, I am not an offensive commander, I have never been, yet I was in EB last night attacking a keep, what does that say to you? And that little comment about you being there when we fought BG, but not me? PRO has been in FA since the start, and so have I. I’ve been there commanding in FA BL since we were getting smashed by CD, TC, and YB because we just didn’t have the coverage. I was there before the IoJ transfers that gave us the numbers we needed to stay competitive, and I will be there even when the server begins to die, if it ever does. I admit, I was out of my element, doing something I don’t usually do, but at least I tried and learned from it. I do not, however, appreciate tagless CORE members throwing down siege keeping us from building what we need to get built, you were in our TS, we see your names. And I do not appreciate you making assumptions and starting something when you have no prior knowledge about me or my guild. You can come back with a better attitude about things and try to work as a team, or leave the server because if you can’t then it’s clearly not for you.
Woah. Hold on there dude. No need to get all worked up. Yes its the middle of silver league and we are stomping left and right. But that doesn’t change the fact that FA has gotten a little sloppy. Thats fine. Happens to everyone in matches like this. I’m sorry CORE has been going a little stir crazy but like you said, does it really matter? We have history with IoJ. That happens too.
Vis was making an observation and complimenting IoJ on their defense. They are taking advantage of FA just as FA takes advantage of higher tier servers I imagine.
Yes CORE hasn’t been here long but we are having a great time of it and appreciate what FA has got interms of guilds and community. Its great stuff. So I’m sorry that we have upset you. Keep up the good work.
I can appreciate his forum post, I know they may have some foundation and reason. I was there, I understand. And IoJ did pull off a great defense, there is no doubt in that. I simply do not think his comments and attitude in map chat were warranted.
Sounds fair. And I know he posted first, but please bring it up with him in private messaging first. I understand what a call-out on the forums can bring, but problems are best brought up with the individual or his guild first. Let us just move on from this and cap IoJ’s stuff tonight, if they still have it anyways.
Then remind your ranks that Map chat is not the place!

Nope. The only time I wasn’t on EBay was during the beta and a week on Maguuma before closed transfers. Other than that, EBay exclusive ;O
Are you talking about Shaux Faux? I noticed some Borlis Pass transfer went and borrowed my name, and I’m pretty sure he’s from FA since he knew Brother Alaric (who I scheduled a GvG with way back when).

Sorry. We tend to view map chat as anything goes and team chat is for tactical stuff.
Aw, looks like the post was deleted… Good thing. DIE being difficult for Mend said more about Mend than DIE.
Still only FA guild I know of that gave us a challenge is CORE, Bomb continually wiped against us the nights I was on, I dont believe we’ve fought HOPE yet in the open field and RET.. Well we’d insta lose to that blob unless we holed up in some tower or keep.
Sucks that both EB and IoJ don’t really have a SEA coverage. Meow would love a challenge.
Your BG “friend” posted a video during off hours , the same time we fight you. Late OCX and EU time slot isn’t the guild group . Everyone clings to their claim to fame, o we wiped DIE. Those who want to fight us can pm and arrange , open field via livestream or gvg via youtube. No forum nonsense needed. But I will address it nevertheless. BG posted those 2 videos after being obliterated all week long and never owning up to a challenge DIE had offered. Here are some of the reasons for their anger.
Now that’s the address the BG relation^ But thanks to your post FA wont get it easy. Still adding captions to RET/RAM/HOPE fighting us 80 v 25 in front of our spawn tower on FABL . I respect HOPE and RAM and they were only about 15 each, where as RET kept coming with 40-50 at a time to side swip us. We held back on playing these games but its all good. INC FA videos
^our first E-bay non DIE +a decent sized DIE guild group .#Ebay2013 . We will stand for Ebay and all this blobing , chest thumping, ridiculous banter towards this great server ends now.
Man. Are we posting EB zerg wiping clips now? Hold on. Let me brush off my set. It’s gotten quite dusty as its sat in the closet. Maybe we can contact some of our friends in SIC from BP to help post some more EB clips.
EB zerg is a shameless excuse my friend. When the zerg consists of all the good guild players from a server… its not a zerg or the disrespectful terms “pug” or “militia” its is a organized force, no different then a guild force , with the only difference being in that it is a bunch of geared/trainined players from various guilds with a added few exceptions playing together.
Also my friend, if you would prefer we can arrange DIE vs CORE. Were fighting fa for 2 weeks back to back, since were so bad and you will wipe us. Why don’t we just go to the same bl for the next 2 weeks and just fight non stop on livestream so everyone can watch u guys wipe us over n over. You down?
Where did all the senseless chest thumping towards MEND ,IoJ, Ebay, and DIE go… you mean you guys don’t want a free livestream to show everyone you wipe us so easily?
I have never posted on the forum, but I was at the IoJ Keep battle tonight, and there was quite a bit of confusion in the FA TS about the trebs in Veloka – we dithered on the ramp as long as we did because we were sure you had them, but when someone poked their head around the corner all we could see was a cata. You have no reason to believe me, but the first I heard about someone glitching and taking out your siege was here. And I am sure I am not alone in feeling mighty peeved someone on our side would do such a thing.
You guys put up a heck of a fight, it was so much fun – I am truly sorry some turnip on my server chose not to play fair.
It was a great fight. I don’t blame all of FA for the actions of a few. I was on the trebs along with Demona and we had them set far enough back to be safe but effective. We took out the catas outside pang, behind veloka and in the open north of the keep as well as the rams on the gate and the zerg there. Basically anywhere FA was within range we could rain down on you. We also had veloka loaded with other siege as further protection.
When the battle changed location and was on the ramp I came over to help. I died by the entrances to the water gate by the ramp and watched the indecision of the golems. They kept going up the ramp then turning and going into the tunnel again. When they went back into the tunnel I wpd back and ran to veloka because I felt we needed to protect the back side of the keep with our trebs which would have kept that wall clear.
When we ran in to our fully upgraded tower the siege was there and no breaches but it was minus two trebs. We were both amazed. My first thought was that it was an illusion from a mes or something or decay but all the other siege was still there and a mes couldn’t get that high and that far back. And the decay on the other siege was like 40 mins or so.
We looked up and saw that FA had all their golems on the backside of the keep which would have been a killing zone but we had no trebs and no supply. Even so, we didn’t lose the keep until later after this initial battle ended but it was demoralizing. Those trebs would have wiped the 8 or so golems with their backs to us. Fighting so hard and being prepared only to have that happen to us. Bad enough we run against multiple 40 man zergs every map we go.
FA seems ok by me and is lucky to have the huge population. We have to play smart and siege and use tactics and to have the treb issue just tilts the balance of the game unfairly. Not all of FA is to blame, that is silly.
@rmprodigy.4679
“its not a zerg or the disrespectful terms “pug” or “militia” its is a organized force, no different then a guild force.”
and that’s why you can’t be taken seriously. The EB zerg is nothing like an organized guild group that plays together all the time, has class comp., is all geared for no rally botting, and has ALL the players in Teamspeak.
I’ll give you credit where’s it due though. DIE is apparently taking all comers and i assume over the next 2 weeks we’ll see GvG videos and unedited open field fights against guild groups (looking forward to the no excuses RET rematch). Never seen you guys tower hug, or full on flee from an even numbered fight. Thanks for making the next two weeks more interesting in the field and on the forums.
LOL, SIC + WET… Where’s my kitten yolo video?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!!?!?! WET, you all just stood around looking at that TC zerg, giving them time to make a decision on what they were going to do. You see what just one person taking the initiative could do?

@MEND, you never wiped our guild rally, I heard from my guild you had fun running against off hour, commanderless havoc. LOL , that’s the time of the day when Craig are me were prob playing Bf4 or chilling. Seeing as too nether of us were there.

First off, I’ve been with FA since launch and have no intention of ever leaving this awesome server. CORE is a great guild with good people and I have welcomed them with open arms to our family.
Second, I had to say something about your post. Everyone on FA is entitled to their opinion and it should be encouraged, but I do not agree with slamming another FA brother in open forum chat for all the other server’s trolls to feed on and to use to their advantage.
I suggest that we keep our “dirty laundry” in house and sort it out internally. Please respect all your FA brothers, thank you.
Been having some great solo roaming fights, some even better 2 v 2 and 3v3 fights, met a cool warrior from [OBEY] but I think it’s time for some sPvP again when 5 FA v 3 IOJ resort to running to towers, using siege and I’m not sure if they called for help or not but about 30s later resorted to this picture.

I found Faux’s magical mythical land of 1v1’s. FA borderland, oddly enough. Made props to some of these [RUN] guys. Just met Henry’s Warrior. Great tank he’s running. Downed me and a thief friend individually, and was then able to take us both down simultaneously. Again, mad props. I’m currently solo-roaming that BL, just seeing what I can get into.

The only fight i remember we lose agasint mend was reset night, i only have 5-10 BOMB with me.
This footage is from reset night. There are around 15 BOMB and 15 other tags there. Everytime we saw you it was with those other tags. I guess it’s an upper tier thing for guild blobs to run together with different tags. That way they can say they only had 5-10 people.

I wouldn’t bother anymore, FA got a solid 10+ people to deal with 3 now

Aw, looks like the post was deleted… Good thing. DIE being difficult for Mend said more about Mend than DIE.
I said they were the only Ebay guild to provide a challenge— I was not on last night so I cant speak for then. A challenge does not necessarily mean it was difficult, it means they gave a decent fight while all the other ebay guilds just go squishys quish squish.They wiped us once, after that we wiped them a lot after that.
Still only FA guild I know of that gave us a challenge is CORE, Bomb continually wiped against us the nights I was on, I dont believe we’ve fought HOPE yet in the open field and RET.. Well we’d insta lose to that blob unless we holed up in some tower or keep.
BTW Mend doesnt run 40+, We run 20-25 nightly generally. The only time we approached 40 was reset night at 37 people online, but many were stationed hills or flipping camps back and forth that were with us, we had ~6-7 members in queue. So I mean that left us at our usual 25ish.
Msg me or drigan and hopefully HOPE can accompany you for some lovely fights tonight MEND
