Well that sucks... Mercs are bad...

That does kinda suck, why merge with a guild that has 100,111,9999999.9 members that never play the game?

Santon and the other officers in Mercs have always been respectful and kind to me and my guild mates.

Well all the best to you guys, though a bit disappointing.

I have played a few MMOs and this is the first time I have ever gotten this close to others in a game. The people I have grown with over this past year will forever be a part of me. Fare thee well my dear Free Companions, until we reform again to tread the lands of Hyboria! I am always in your debt for the experiences we have had together, - Fearless Leader

Why would you pick the Mercs? They have 4500 Members... and 20 active....

The Mercs leadership have always been kind and respectful, as I said above. But to add to that, they are out to have a good time, and not at the expense of others. It is harder to build people up than to tear them down, which is why you see so few people do it. Santon helps build people up. That is the character of the person I want as a guild leader.

While I am writing, I would like to give an honorable mention to Ragnarx. He and his crew have also been respectful to me and my former guild members. I favored a merger with Mercs over Red Nails because most of our members know them better. I did post his game mail about a merger to our officers along with Mercs. I wouldn't have done that if I didn't have respect for him and his guild. I do and I appreciated the offer.

The only issue with this is now the server looses one more guild... This seems to happen everyday. People make a guild, start doing well, then give up on them selfs. Nothing worth having comes over night. It is so easy to try and jump ship to something thats already established and coast. I really wish you guys would have given it a few more months to see what you could get going. But all is well, I understand being a leader can take alot out of you and sometimes is funner to just show up and play. Which might be why Jak1BR didn't make it. And thats understandable after all, if your not having fun why play?.. anyways best of luck to you guys!

You are right. The issue was one of time. My time is more limited now unfortunately.

Thanks for the well wishes. Good luck to you and your new guild too.
