hello i need some infoFollow

PvP battles? or people xping.

Also check out http://www.die-guild.org/. This guild Zergs like hell in every game they play. It makes me sad because i seem to run into this guild in every game i play.

Zerg is from the game Starcraft, which is pretty much a race of aliens and its also a tactic used in any game that is pvp and involves multiple people/units. The tactic is to overwhelm the opposite faction with large numbers rather then skill.

I'll have to agree ith you yet again, Gihja. I've seen them fight and good lord do they ever zerg. I remember seeing the Nurfed vs. DIE round 2 video (both guild versions) and I notice how skilled Nurfed was by holding back an onslaught of alliance soldiers. I do love how they both spined the fight but I had to say I was more impressed with the skill displayed from Nurfed then DIE.

I've never personally seen the DIE guild in action but i have read their posts on the official wow boards and they seem well. . dumb.

I didn't know them at all from EQ, but they've developed a heck of a reputation among the WoW players for being the biggest bunch of lamers around. It's obvious they don't care about their reputation though - or rather that they fight to preserve their poor integrity.

Could be, but I know other PvP-server guilds. I have a friend in Pandemonium, for instance. The striking part to me though is just how much I see of them and their pewp on the Blizzard boards. I didn't read Safehouse or the other prolific trans-server EQ sites, but I at least knew who Afterlife was, Legacy of Steel, etc. It's highly likely I wouldn't know about FoH if I didn't also know who Furor was, though. I had contact with a couple people on the lead guild on ARo, and they were one of the elite guilds across all servers, but I otherwise hadn't heard of them. If DIE was worth anything at all in EQ, with the kind of noise they create, I would have heard of them.

I know how bad DIE is just from hanging around the Blizzard forums. Did you know that when they introduced the first part of the honor system, where it penalizes you for killing people substantially lower than yourself, several of their guildies COMPLAINED? He ranted about how it would spawn an epidemic of "reverse ganking", with groups of lower-level guys cruising the higher level areas-- and the higher levels can't defend themselves because doing so would dishonor them, blah blah blah.

He almost had a point... But his association with DIE led everyone in the forum to flame him to a nice, dark crisp.

"I don't think anyone should judge posts by the guild your in it's very stupid.
Also I agreed with the one of the die posts about people cheating by getting to hard to reach places. That posts was flamed with stupid responses with the common "cry more noob.""

My point was that the notoriety of their guild destroys their credibility even if they have a good argument. If your guild is hated by all for its ganking and you oppose something intended to hurt gankers, no one will listen to you, even if you're right. Call it karma. They reaped what they sowed.

You see, guilds are social groups. Unlike, say, an ethnicity, you can CHOOSE to be in a guild or not at little or no cost to yourself. If you choose to be in a guild like DIE with a terrible reputation, it's something you have to deal with. DIE is known far and wide for ganking. If player X joins DIE, then even if he doesn't gank he'll be known as a ganker. Why? Because he's choosing to associate with gankers, and thus implicitly validating their practices. His choosing to be part of DIE and supporting them is the same as saying that what they do is alright. That's why mercy isn't shown to DIE members whether they themselves gank or not: even if they don't, they're helping other people commit the same sins.

It's too bad that the small number of good ideas DIE has get washed away in the river of flame, but that's what happens when you do things you KNOW make people hate you. Hate has a tendency to override thought, and even those who would otherwise be neutral stay away to avoid the same stigma.

All of which is why it's better to be a nice guy.
