If you’re thinking “why Anvil Rock? That place sucks” well keep on reading.

So a while back AR was a strong WvW server fielding guilds such as
[ALS] ~ Anvils Last Stand
[TEO] ~ The Epsilon Order
[HoA] ~ Heart Of Anvil
[TFH] ~ The Fluttering Horde
[Zero] ~ Organization Zero
[CRFT] ~ Crafters
[TDME] ~ The Dungeon Masters Elite
[WAR] ~ Warlords of Anvil Rock
[WAR] ~ War/Merc
[KAOS/LPC] ~ Killing as Organized Sport / Lpc

But then we hit a brick wall, by the name of EBay /BP.
These two servers were two horn locked bulls while AR was a calf in the corner. We didn’t have a chance. But somewhere along the way we grew a spine, and we fought back, we began winning some weeks and even holding a strong second. But people got bored. People got lazy and left. AR was demoralized and destroyed. Anvil Rock dropped from tier 5 to 8 in no time. And that’s when we sat there. And sank. We did nothing. So people came and went, hell even I went and I’m AR to the bone. Upon my return I noticed a change in the AR community, they were happy and helpful and full of life. A lot of people had returned from retirement, but I was still a new face.
Now we have guilds old and new, rebuilding and restructuring. These are the guilds we have now.
[TFH] ~ The Fluttering Horde
[Zero] ~ Organization Zero
[ASAP] ~ Anvil Secret Army of Protector
[TEO] ~ The Epsilon Order
[KAOS] ~ Killing As Organized Sport
[HOTS] ~ Hotties
[WoAR] ~ War lords of Anvil Rock
[DC] ~ Dragoon coalition
[TBT] ~ The Black Tides
[Wolf] ~ not sure of the name :/ sorry..

This isn’t a recruitment message, this is a calling to all the old Anvil Rockers. I finished my adventure, so have you, Anvil Rock is returning to it’s former glory and It’s time for you to return home.

It’s ya boy fred.

Crafters and War/Merc are still around and active.

The matchups in Season 1 were mostly close and very fun, except for the weeks we had to face Henge of Denravi.

For the past 2-3 weeks we’ve been taking over everything during the night NA time and playing even or slightly behind the rest of the time. This makes for good fights during NA prime time.

I do not regret for one minute my decision to not quit AR. Even the reason for the exodus has improved somewhat.

Gaming is all about fun. It’s fun being on AR!

As a former AR from beta (left a couple months after the exodus) what I would like to know is, Does AR have a latenight presence between 10pm – 5 am EST ? I ask because I loved AR but because of my play time and the exodus I was left with no one to play with.

Coming back would be nice but at the same point I’m not willing to do it if I’m going to be roaming solo. I would be willing to command during these hours on weekends and 1-2 nights during the week but, if I’m going to be commanding 5 people lets face it, its just not going to be fun.

Only 20,000 Points ahead of a server that can’t field more than 15 upscaled. Oh my.

Why ? why do you feel the need to post this ? Its a recruitment thread grow up. If I was shopping around for a server I can assure you DR would be off the table now.

Seeing as your server apparently needs more player maybe you should help them instead of hurting them by being a exactly what players are trying to avoid.

Same reason they feel the need to post an image of them being ahead of a crippled DR and a GoM that isn’t even fighting.

well the current matchup (6 dec-13 dec) we have the 3rd highest score in na… against SF and Kain and we’re up by almost 60k, just nobody posted a screen shot of that matchup (shrug). DR/GoM was a closer matchup than this one at the end of the week so that should say something about the standings of these respective servers… not taking anything away from one or the other.

that week dr was in full force though, and the pic in question is of AR at ~7am w/ a 600ppt (which is not infrequent the past few weeks) and is probably hold overs from our oceanic group.

Agreed, not sure why you’re harpin on them. Recruitment threads are the place to be positive about a server.

In all honesty, that is the time frame that Anvil Rock seems to be running the strongest in right now. Our N/A is considerable lighter than our SEA/OCE time frames, although it seems to be improving a little during NA prime, it could be better. We actually have seen a few queues here and there as well, which, up to a few months ago, were nonexistent even on reset nights. With the addition of a server wide TS that players are actually using, we are making strides to get on track.

Glad I came back to AR, great bunch of people, new faces and old I’m glad to see AR hasn’t lost its fire.
