The BlackGreed of Requiem 2
Responding to the above:
1) This "downfall of Ki" started from the mouth of KingEgo, the BlackGreed's boss in Episode 2.0. In reality when he was bad mouthing the guild, Ki was the biggest I have ever seen, having 27 members online and 130+ in the guild. Your boss went to our TS, and I explained Ki is a level 8 guild, I am not "trying" to revive it. He was extremely arrogant and pressed on to spread rumors about this. Though, keep in mind: a) Ki is still one of the biggest guilds on this server. b) Having members does not mean I can convince them to go to Valhalla. 2) Yes, I did blame the BlackGreed in my blog for "ditching Valhalla" and causing wipes. Because this scared away people of my guild from wanting to attend these CONSISTENT wipes. Ki is a guild that did 7 v 20, 13 v 30, 22 v 40+ in ISSUS. We are the ONLY guild who made 1300-1500 points in ONE ISSUS on this server. This is what the members of Ki are used to, the older members are fearless power houses and I enabled this. But lets be honest, pushing this created a type of atmosphere where members disliked wipes. If we lost or there was a wipe, some left and joined the winning guild. This is how Ki are, I enabled them, strengthened them and they hate loosing. So your guild doing this, caused my guild to HATE Valhalla, because they thought it will remain the same. They refused to go to Valhalla, and it was a struggle for me to get them just to go to that one Issus... 3) I played the role of a tank from the start of 2.0->2.5, and I tanked for BlackKnights for months in Valhalla+Issus. If I was driven by war points, then I would not have raided with BlackKnights. I would not have tanked, I would not have pulled anything for you to kill. Because, we both know it was just me and two other Ki out there. For months I just went to Valhalla because KingEgo always complained how his amity never goes to Valhalla. This accusation is conflicting, because how can a tank be concerned with #3 spot, if that person: a) Can't make much kills on their own. b) Can't convince their guild to attend mass suicide for "some" points. 4) Me not going to your team speak doesn't equal us loosing the boss. It just means I refused/can't go for some reason or the other. No reason to blame me for loosing a boss, but of course only a greedy person would put the blame of loosing potential gold on some unrelating fact. 5) I'm certain I was questioning the motives behind the BlackKnights in the amity chat here. We all read what this argument was about, I even streamed it live on steam, so there are at least 60 eye witnesses. Let me refresh your memory: a) I mentioned that I had to "lure" Ki to Valhalla with doing the boss. b) I questioned "why we would do the boss, if only to reset it". c) I even agreed I would go to your TS in the future, but muted. d) I had to take a significant amount of disrespect from the BlackKnights in that amity conversation, who were taking some unnecessary outrage on me because "Griefy" told them it was my fault they lost the boss. To answer this, "no" and "no", BlackKnights would have reset the boss and just because there are reds doesn't mean they could not have gotten it, HAD THEY HAVE TRIED. They didn't even try to get that boss, if you saw the replay my group were the ONLY ones aside from the reds who tried. THIS IS THE PUREST example of the BLACKGREED in action, unable to accept responsibility of maintaining the integrity of the boss and SHIFTING the blame on me. I was unrelating to this entire incident, unrelating because I did not go to your team speak, I just lured my members to help you kill a boss. And, what did I get in return? I GOT BLAMED and FLAMED in the amity chat, thanks Griefy, thanks for giving this example of your greed. 6) Uh it doesn't matter if or when we broke this amity or why. I told Kai, Ki would not go to this Issus, and only 2 of us Ki would be there. But, through all of it I was still able to convince 13 members to go, and I have a screen of us at the middle protecting it to the end. Therefore, this BlackGreed title you are getting is very relating and true to your guild. You are just another example of a guild that only thinks of war points, gold and stealing members. Conclusion: You mentioned a lot here how I'm not "accepting being a failed leader" or something like this because some members ran to you. If you didn't know some were asked to leave Ki by members of the BlackGreed, including KingKai. I said it before, newer Ki are enabled players who started as nothing, got used to being something and want more. The older members of Ki will not engage much with newer members, because they are 100% convinced these people only come to strengthen their knowledge/character in the game and leave. These are not the first people to do this and leave, the only thing this behavior accomplishes is a reluctance to engage with newer members. To get to the basics of the matter, our guild symbol is an anchor so it only means I am loyal/interested in the members who have been here for months, older members are the same. But, sure we give the newer ones some chance with the expectation they are just going to leave, because this is just a game, people leave. c;
