A New Alliance on Dragonbrand
Lets go Dragonbrand! We still have plenty of Guilds that want to fight and make this a great server ! Check out the War Storm Alliance!
+1 to NorthStar
As someone from Crystal Desert watching your server fall apart this week, I sure feel for you guys. Those guilds cough TSym cough that left cause of losing this week are trash no better than Team Legacy or even RUIN I really hope you guys can rally and get people to PvP and crush Tier 4 that way we can see eachother again in Tier 3 when we eventually drop down from the “Get facerolled by Tier 1 leftovers” Tier for a week!
I would suggest having only guild leaders on the alliance, and then assigning guilds to handle specific WvW maps through the leaders. Reason being information will be more protected, can be easily communicated.
i.e. 50 guild leaders in the main Alliance Guild — the leaders will then be assigned specific maps for their guilds to participate in.
Assign 20 guilds on EB with specific tasks
Assign 10 guilds on Borderlands 1 (5 guilds go for territorial tasks/expansion — 5 go for orb)
Assign 10 guilds on Borderlands 2 " "
Assign 10 guilds on Borderlands 3 " "
These are all just raw ideas I have, I would prefer the Alliance handle ALL the borderlands while 2-3 major guilds handle EB, mostly because EB requires the most teamwork and communication out of all the WvW maps.
I also just want to add that a dictatorship is the most effective way of handling WvW. Balance is an ideal concept in the battlefield but it is incredibly hard to achieve, imo outright impossible.
Some of you might think this is a ridiculous idea, but when Anet starts actually doing major work on revising WvW and fixing kitten it will all boil down to who has the best leader and how well his world can follow his orders.
But of course, these are just my opinions.
@Disen I get what you’re saying, but i think it’s possible to have that without it being a dictatorship. It’s much better to have leader that people want to follow because they’re wise leaders rather than “follow me or else” mentality. That may take time to work out and establish but in the end all will be better for it.

I think you got the wrong impression from what I was trying to say.
By dictatorship I meant only through the alliance with whom all the guild leaders will follow without second thoughts or doubts. Not exactly inflicting fear through the whole server like you’ve clearly explained — just to clarify.
But of course this requires a player that’s already proven himself in the battlefield as an effective leader and must be nominated by all the guild leaders.
WvWvW this week didn’t even include Dragonbrand.
I hope this Alliance pays off. The more WvWvW Alliances that form, the more competitive play we can all experience in the future.
I agree with both Blackgoat and Disen. What i mean by no dictatorship is that we do not have a ridged hierarchy but a very malleable collection of groups. Leaders will arise over time, but just because you have a blue thing over your head does not mean you should lead. We want it to be organic in growth, and once we settle on a system that benefits the whole server we will set it in stone.
There is a lot going on behind the scenes right now, and it’s looking very promising.

No worries Looks like we’re just saying the same thing different ways. It’s all good

@Disen I actualy agree with you because I know from other games that idea has worked out great. I’ve seen a server follow one leader who led his guild and we were dominating everyday without problems.
It of course does fall to wanting to follow this said person because you have to know you can trust him. Without trust you’ll doubt question and criticize everything he does . doing so will ultimate demoralize others and bring you back to square one.
Vengeance has been trying to work with pugs for some time now, we wanted everyone to be on the same page, we only insulted those who deserved it. I find it’s important that we keep morale and leadership at it’s highest.
I believe in this alliance and I know I will do everything I can to help make Dragonbrand a better server. I’m glad to see some players from other servers showing their support for us to rally back, and I hope we can one day get the chance to prove ourselves against recent servers we’ve fought so poorly against. Not for bragging rights, not for server rankings, but just so they know we weren’t that horrible server they once saw.
So every player knows we can be something more.

That’s the exact mind set we need Eurlin. It may take a little while but this server will be a powerful force.
You folks are better off without em then. If they cut n’ ran from DB, they’ll likely do the same elsewhere when that server has a bad day. The chickenkittens (gawd…I love this filter)
Bout time ANet starts charging for server transfers, I think…say….25 bucks per account / 1 xfer per month allowed. Except for new players who should get 2 free xfers to use within 2 weeks…..that sound fair?

Not going to badmouth anyone who decides to leave. Those of us who are still here needs to focus on enjoying our ingame playtime.

I’m glad you guys over there are keeping your heads up, keep recruiting and working to be a community. People with elitist attitudes really don’t help anyone.
