Celtic Heroes

One last thing, the temporary peace within Resurgence will not last as long as you think. That is not a threat or even my hope. It is just a pattern that I was so foolish not to have seen earlier. People abandon their clan for a better chance at drops and endgame. When the update comes, the drama within clans will increase again as it has happened every single update before that. I even fell into the pattern by leaving celts, using the same excuses that res used, and I regret it dearly.

Obfionn, Tomo, and Bubbles saw the pattern and apparently it takes an experience such as this in order to finally notice it as well.

Welcome back EKG... since this become a Bada resurg Usk topic I'll throw my 2 cents in. Sorry for perpetuating this but I've wanted to say this for a while so here goes. Sorry for the long post it's been on my mind for months... When so many people come up to me and call me a traitor or I can’t believe you joined Resurg Look below: this is why and what I've seen and heard and understand.

You can say all you want about different players and leaders in res but both Smelly and Katz helped me when I was in Uskoci with crests and rings as I leveled up while they were in Bada!!!! And here is the crux of what Bada was doing that caused the split. BADA HAD A DL BANK!~!!!!!!! Yes this meant that they were hoarding DL and as we all know started using every tactic they could think of including over-bolasing when USK had the lock, to keep Uskoci from getting DL. There were other activities as well that were improper that were employed (if you are really interested whisper me). Eventually this became the most important thing in the clan....DESTROY USK! Well it worked in a way (Usk is still around but not the same as before). But the result was not what was intended I'm sure.... as some of the best players of the game, the core of Bada, left to create resurg.

Yeah, I hear players say this is competition but I went to other worlds and the clans that had power only fought DL during their peak hours. There were always times when the other clans could progress. I have heard that some say that USK wasn't as dedicated. This is incorrect there were months of Glass board emails about bosses that I could show you. USk was a multinational clan with people on 24/7. But It's simple also ... groups with DL always can out-lock a group without DL especially if they camp and time every single DL boss every single spawn 24/7. Smelly came to the leaders of USK months before Res formed telling us that Bada's tactic was to destroy USK. He didn't like it. Because he didn't want to play the game of hoarding DL.....he was disrespected along with Katz and eventually Phur by some of the less mature members of Bada. (I was not in bada but this is from what they have told me) So it seemed that the whole point and goal of bada was to destroy USK by getting DL drops and recruit USk high levels with these digital carrots.

SO From my understanding Res was formed by people who were tired of the tactics being used against mature players who had spent time and money in the game. They felt disrespected by less mature members of Bada and wanted a change. The goal was a low drama endgame clan which was intent on pursuing endgame bosses NOT DESTROYING ANOTHER CLAN. The clan rule was basically don't cause drama in the clan, and we were all starting over no matter what happened in the past. This is how Res is...Oh and I was in another endgame clan that was much the same way. Serenity! yeah it was more than just a name the clan was all the highlevels formed to have a low drama clan for killing endgame bosses. (this appealed to me about resurg)

Now I have heard that some have said that people joined res for drops. This may be true but I consider it progression. People are spending lots of money on this game to be the best and to be stopped from reaching their potential because they are not in a clan... Bollocks! Yes resurg battles Bada for DL drops but it is to gear up their members for Mordis. It is not IMHO an overall hatred of a clan and to destroy them. Oh and guess what Resurg doesn't have a DL HOARDING Bank. I just don't see the hate in the clan chat. Now I know there are some resurg that hate bada members and vice versa but the focus is not on destroying a clan it is on End Game....it's on Mordis.

I left Usk because I had many more friends in resurg. I too wanted to progress (I won't lie) but having friends in the clan was the most important aspect. Also the fact that in USK we would camp DL for hours and hours to have drops go to a clan that didn't need them! I knew res would not have the same problem. Still It was a very hard decision. And Loyalty to a video game clan???!!!!! I am there for my friends no mater what clan they are in. Now here's a thing that I had to learn that it would behoove you all to learn. Long ago (way before Bada) I told myself that I would never get upset when someone left my clan. And I have tried to maintain that. I can't say I have done that for every instance but for most I have. In fact there is the one reason for me moving from any clan I have joined and that is I have Joined the clan that makes me the happiest. I have counseled many a player to do this... So if you are joining a clan that you are happy in Awesome!! That's all anyone can ask. TBH Staying in a clan that you cannot be happy in because of loyalty is far worse!!!

As EKG mentioned I am surprised that more people haven't joined Resurg from bada but I know that some of it is about past wrongs and perceptions. I have chosen to move forward. And although I respect the Bada members that formed Resurg we have not always seen eye to eye when we were in competing clans. But that is over....the past is forgotten and I look forward to the future.

OK this is my rant or my understanding...I have no issues with anyone in Bada...In fact I consider many friends. Well unless they kill me on a quest doing a gladiator or kill mobs when I am leveling .... This behavior tends to make me less fond of the particular person. I will not say Bada is full of a bunch of miscreants who disrupt and interfere with other peoples games just because one person does something wrong. I know this is not true. And unfortunately clans today don't kick members for bad behavior so it is what we live with. It is an unfortunate escalation of behavior. It is a "If you do this to me or my clannies I am going to do it to you" mentality. Sad but true. Oh and some Resurg members have taken to some behavior that I would never condone but it is the way they feel they have to play.

Hopefully people will talk in game and come to an understanding....but unfortunately bad behavior gets rewarded and encouraged so I doubt that will ever happen. Oh one last interesting fact... the players that created the aggie cooperation between clans...that worked out issues in the past...that talked when there were problems instead of posting on the forums... Well for the most part the old Bada and Usk members responsible for bringing about cooperation and a set of guidelines for behavior in Arawn... Guess what? They are all in Resurg.

I want to say this to the New Bada. Are you willing to do what we did a year or two ago? (bring about cooperation and a set of guidelines for behavior in Arawn) I know the members of Resurg and from my viewpoint I think they would like to have that and less drama..... Oh and I am speaking as a clannie.. I am not a leader of any sort in Resurg.

Welcome back to this new Arawn Landscape EKG.....Part of my rant and Ramble was to give you my viewpoint of it. Hope to see you around!

Squidly, you say that more times than not Res shows up at DL fights with members already in full DL? Does Bada not do the same? Res is simply trying to as you said about Bada gear its members in DL armor. There is nothing wrong with full DL members hitting DL bosses. Res is simply trying to armor its members as well as possible. The goal being of course taking down end game bosses. You as I am sure are fully aware of the bonuses that come with a full set of DL armor. So, with that being said, we actually have similar interest in mind.. That being gear all members of our clans with full DL.
