And a year later...

Call of the Grand Crusade (10 player) We did it all out of boredom. Heh heh. What can I say, my boys are nuts... and drunk /sigh

In all seriousness, around this time last year (as far as I can remember) I would kill to even be in a 10-man TOGC group. I KNEW my last guild only wanted me there cause they needed me, but when they have their core crew I'm out of the picture.

No doubt, I was a far more aggressive player back then than I am now. If anything, I'm too much of a slacker nowadays, it worries me that I am not as into the game as I once was. My dedication to my current guild wasn't any different to my previous ones.

But I am a better guildie now than I was back then. I was a self-centered, egotistical overachiever. I don't talk to officers about how I felt or where I stand on certain topics. Of course, I was usually shut down before I even let out an idea or a concern. But I was a ticking bomb, I just let everything bottled in and relied on impulse on what I should do next.

I say I was reborn the day I transferred to Arygos (Server). New server = fresh start. No old enemies that would bash me on the recruitment forums. No people pre-disposed of thinking that I suck when they've only seen me raid on a laggy laptop when I was leveling. No people inclined in getting rid of me or making my raid experience a living hell because of something minuscule I said in the past.

I have been in at least 5 raiding guilds. But all of them combined don't even add up to how much I like my present guild. Here, I'm humbled to say the least. I actually have to fight for my raid spot even though I am a raider rank. I can talk to the officers about my problems, in and out of the game. I actually trust my Guildmaster (no one tell him that please, he already has a big enough head as it is!) will not fuck me over.

It must be the Green Apple soda and vodka talking at this point... but it's sad when I think about it: I have NEVER been in a guild for more than 7 months tops. That's a scary fact. Of course, I WAS in the Hydraxis fail!server... And I am breaking personal records here in Methodical. Almost a year in October. OH YEAH!!!

Cheers to Methodical. Love you fuckers and I am soo gonna miss you sons of bitches during my vacation. Live long and prosper! (Why did I have to watch the Star Trek movie while writing this?)
