IoJ takes the lead 
Lol I love all the hate Drgn gets for recruiting on other servers.
1) we have been on CD and FA recruiting way before we dropped to T3, we were trying to get guilds and players to face BG and SoR.(also SoR and BG have had people recruit on IoJ so stop acting that were the only guild that does it, your only mad because its not being done for your server)
2) We don’t annonce were an IoJ guild until someone that is interested PM’s the guy (its the same guy on every server) recruiting. Its not a welcome to our guild, and oh hey! You got transfer to ioj now.
3) As for him joining a guild and trying to steal members when officers are offline, do you have proof this is how it actually happened? Because I know that he has been invited to a couple guilds by accident and he just threw up the message and left. He also joind guilds that were hearing him out on why they should transfer. So if you have any proof he joined guilds to try and take members while officers are offline send it to me because that is kinda scummy.(can’t promise he will stop since I dont out rank him)
4) as I said it other threads don’t get mad at people recruiting from your server, get mad at the people abandoning your server. Instead of complaining, why don’t you try and get ppl from IoJ? I personally would be happy to lose the fair weather players that are willing to server hop.
5) I must state that what I say is not a representation of IoJ as server.
(I’m also posting this on my new tablet so sorry for any typos Im still getting used to it. Happy holidays)
As for ohoni, It’s probably best to go to another server after saying anything like that if we(Crystal Desert) tried half as hard for something you WANT. Might as well use the server transfer and stay where ever you end up. I know personally I don’t want to help you now, after the poor attitude that is being shown. I hear Primordial Dragons is recruiting.

As a member of Drgn, I can say we attract people of the highest calibre.
And we recruit everyone, not just our immediate opponents. We recruit guilds and individuals from people at the bottom of the tiers in addition to the top.
“Give me your tired, your poor
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free”
If they don’t like you and your server, but they like us, don’t hate!

Might want to run some in guild lessons on the downed system, because I just 1v4’d some of your high calibre guildies.

As recruiter for [DRGN], I will make some things clear, for all the haters, that keep posting stuff.
Few points to re-emphasize that make my actions valid, many Muffin covered already:
1) I was recruiting from CD and FA WELL before we moved to tier 3, even before we knew we were going to T3, I’m talking months in advanced, many of you should know that, my efforts were not done out of spite to either server. That said, I will admit I recruited some during the current Live Match up, but will stop and move somewhere else then for now, since it’s upsetting so many people. I will continue to recruit off server for reasons I will state in point 2 now.
2) Anyone that contacts me, I let them know right up front, I’m from another server, and state solid, factual, and true arguments, and let them decide what they wish to do. I put the facts out there, it is up to the individual PLAYERS to decide what they wish to do. If they are unhappy with the server, I provide an alternative. Generally lower tier servers miss out on a lot of WvW has to offer, it’s a night and day difference between lower and higher tiers. I feel Tier 3 should consolidate to push up to Tier 2 together, instead of fighting eachother, FA and CD have very good talent, I will admit. Even better talent then T2 and T1. I have been surprised in that regards. So I have tried different approaches, I not only tried to recruit from FA and CD, but spoke to MANY guilds to try and move over to IoJ to consolidate and spearhead to T2 and maybe even T1, it’s the only way we will move up as a collective. IoJ is in the best position as a home server to move up, due to our dedicated guilds and strong oceanic guilds, combined with FA’s strong North American time players during the weekdays, and CD’s insane weekend crew, we got everything covered to be T1. In another 2-3 weeks if we’re still here in T3, I may come back and offer a solution for guilds to come over to IoJ again to move up tier, and if guilds refuse, I will do what I think is best for Tier 3 to move to Tier 2, by recruiting again for IoJ to consolidate together. Other servers do this, and it can work.
3) I do NOT join guilds and speak to members in private to try and funnel them out of the guild. I only speak to the leader(s), and if they are not around, I speak to the officer(s) to give them a heads up, to consider either merging into [Drgn] or transfer servers to IoJ to move back to higher tier. Show your proof for these claims, otherwise, don’t stir up false rumors against our guild, it’s in bad taste.
4) Our guild accepts casual and new members as well, we are a very patient guild, and are more than willing to teach newbies the ropes in WvW and get better as players. Our WvW crew at the moment probably consists of atleast 1/2 the members at level 60 or below, so congratulations to whoever just gloated about beating 4 of our guild’s members, you probably ran into a group of low level newbs that weren’t sticking with the group, as we still are trying to discipline our initiates. Congratulations to you on that amazing feat
Let me know if you have any other complaints, and I will be sure to address them.
[DRGN] is a very fun, respectful guild and we train all members to be better players and improve, contrary to what most may believe. If we were so low and trashy, we wouldn’t be growing at such a fast and constant rate, and our members would not be sticking around as long as they have.
On that note, I have already left CD and FA. I hope to see you all later, and look forward to your colorful conversations in the future
I’m not sure if this has been brought up before and I don’t want to derail the discussion on the thread but the guild Primordial Dragons [DRGN] has been actively recruiting on FA in Lion’s Arch and all the WvW borderlands for the past 2 weeks. They are an IoJ guild actively recruiting on FA and trying to get players and guilds to transfer over. Seems a little low and is really giving IoJ a bad reputation over here on FA.
It’s good to see Mind Trick representing FA! I’m glad to see Talons and No Heroes have found a home on a respectable server.

Those were the Mind Trick days
When I left for work today I told Jonnyman to take SMC for me.
Drunk scottsman does not disappoint.
Only a 12K difference between us and CD. You guys sure that’s enough to get you through the weekdays?
It wasn’t last week

CD? Let’s kill IoJ as well. I want both of their dead bodies to litter the ground around my feet.

While I appreciate the gesture of no longer recruiting from servers you are facing in battle, I am still at a loss as to why you went from recruiting people in chat, which I had no issues with until we were opponents, to spamming for an invite to small/medium sized guilds? You stopped trying to recruit for a couple weeks at least and instead kept trying to join guilds. Why is that, and why should I not assume someone in map chat was telling the truth? Granted I didn’t see what happened in their guild chat, but I did see you spam chat looking for a guild many, many times and see no legit reason as to why you would be trying to join those guilds.

There were no lowbies in the four and frankly I have fought many lowbies that were much better then those four. It was far from an amazing feat, which was the point of the comment.

Last week? Didn’t help that most of our ppl didn’t show, being Xmas and all. Strangely enough, FA population seemed to swell. This week, same thing might happen for New Year’s day. We’ll see tomorrow.
We’d love to hit IOJ when we can, but when we were seiging IOJ yesterday, FA was doing all sorts of funny things, like blocking our keep wp for fun. One group of 5 went into SMC when the wall went down, only to be wiped by both sides.
FA is like a cat. Every time we engage IOJ, FA wants to play, otherwise they just sit in their towers playing with their trebs.

Nice to see people from Mind Trick, small world!

Been having fun in fa bl but had to go get ready for New Years party. Nice try fa at taking bay back the 5 of us held your Zerg at the outer wall for long time till reforcements came to push you away from inner. Too bad I had to go for round two. In case your wondering I was the asuran necro dropping wells on your ram and fearing you off it
Honest question for US-based FA members: Why are you always camping the eb jp?
Like I get why you do it, all servers do it at some points to get the easy badges and blueprints, but ever since we dropped every time I check the eb jp there is always a significant group of people from FA camping it. Like tonight for example there were 10 right at the entrance and then, from what I could see, 10 more spamming the top of the well; and an unknown amount further on (I assume at least a few on top of arena w/ mesmer portal).
It just kinda baffles me that so early in the wvw week that you would waste so much of your resources (in other words: people) for such a significant amount of time in there. What makes it more baffling is that you’re incredibly organized when you camp! Now let me say I’m not kitten about it or anything; I can buy blueprints and get badges the regular way like everybody else. But why not transfer those resources and that organization and move into the real fight in eb, creating more competition and more enjoyable fights for all servers! And even more important, boost your server’s points up and we can have an even closer 3-way fight!
