Thanks for the post Mea, totally agree with you on this. Vuldan as well - things have DEFINITELY been "dicey".

Indeed, it feels like we are spinning our wheels by leveling folks up and they just leave to play for some other guild because KGB isn't doing PVP in-game currently. Well that will be changing as we will start taking part in Node Wars again; the folks whom left (yesterday) KNEW that - they just decided to leave anyway (apparently NEXT week just wasn't soon enough for them). *shrugs*

I was not really happy about us merging under Lethality myself; but was doing so for the PVP-centered folks that wanted a larger group to play with. Once again - the folks involved bailed, and then Lethality themselves collapsed. So here we are back to KGB in-game; even thought it is with a smaller group. I suppose on the flip side of this, we are talking with the folks that are still left in Lethality and perhaps they will come join KGB now! Evy is working with them, supposed to find out more about that next week. We will NOT be merging with or subbing under any other guild - KGB will stand on its own or will close out of BDO entirely.

Really all that we need right now is to get some more DEDICATED folks in-game and keep our eyes on the prize. Once we do, and have the ability to go CLOSED faction - the folks whom left will either have to come back to fight under the KGB tag; or they will have to resign:

OFFICIAL FACTION (CLOSED)

In game worlds / servers classified as an OFFICIAL FACTION, you are exclusively a Citizen of the KGB. You must put the goals of the KGB ahead of your own, and put your loyalty to KGB above all else. As a KGB citizen, you must not be a member of any other organization. You will be asked to terminate your citizenship in KGB if you are not willing to comply with the order


Currently, we do have a pretty solid group - really it will just take a few more. In fact we added a few more Knights over the weekend (Supreme Knight Wildcard, Knight Nemhain), and I have been talking with Supreme Knight Vuldan, Supreme Knight Crimthan, and Knight 5050 as well. All of these folks are long-standing KGB members! If we pick up 5-10 more folks, that is really all we would need to carry forward!

In fact, I plan on getting with JetStar and issuing a "Call To Arms" for KGB as a whole; this may very well be the best time to do it in fact. Because without more dedicated folks to join to push things into a CLOSED faction - we will likely continue to loose our best warriors to other guilds (or games) because that PVP action is what they crave. This is definitely NOT something I want to see continue happening.
