    Default Any of the AOK guys still around?

    Been a while since I have been around these parts. Any of the old AOK guys still playing? Merlocke, Tab, Zylen, P, Preston, J$, Ishy, Neebs etc? Thinking about making a comeback.

    I can't speak to each of the named, but I do see AOK folks running around on Argo quite a bit.

    Its always hit and miss. I was in an ADQ a while back on my Ranger and one guy for some reason spent the entire raid berating and belittling me (I had said nothing nor typed anything the entire time). Didnt heal me at all either, and I ended up dying. Self healing is fine unless you are silly and get knocked over...

    I rez and loot and get a Green Blade. He then says that as a Ranger I should put it up for roll. I loot it, and my only words all run are to say that Im off to vendor it, and the 5 seconds of silence from him, and laughter from everyone else was golden. Then I dropped the group and put it in my bank for my Sorc/Wiz lives.

    That is awesome. There is no reason to put up with abuse like that.

    As I said its hit and miss. Some have been great. Sure, they joke and swear and rage and whatever, but we all do that from time to time. Others have just gone out of their way to be rude.

    Supreme justice would have been him getting no Green Blade or Torc on his 20th run.

    I was in this run, it is not as you remember it.

    You did not get heals, because you did not stay with the group.

    I was also in this run, and was the only person in party that actually needed that greenblade. When it was asked if you were going to put it up for roll, he was asking for me. We all laughed because we knew you would prove yourself to be a ****** and loot it.

    Nice to see it's come in handy on all those sorc and wiz lives you were claiming you would use it for.

    They all start with Jas. Feel free to squelch them all. Maybe next time dont laugh along when someone is throwing out insults. Are you the one who chose to leave me dead after not healing me?

    Ended up being a great run for one of us, anyway, despite all those who were laughing.

    And the Green Blade went well with the Sorc and Wizard lives. Will be coming back for FvS and Cleric lives when Im done doing melee. But these days with the new gear it only tends to be used for a few levels before being replaced with random loot.

    The best part is that AOK members somehow manage to sneak into Shrouds to click the altars even when none of them are in the party.

    Not sure about all the individuals, but the guild has multiplied. There are now 2 AoK guilds running around.

    For clarification purposes, without the implied bitterness above, both Aces Over Kings and aok are still around and doing well. Aces has been flawlessly rebuilt, moving steadily towards that final guild ship at 85. New guildies have brought a lot of talent without all the griefing and mischief of the players that were previously in Aces. As for aok, I hear they are doing well also and were able to purchase a high level guild with a ship for some plat and rename it to aok. I found it very flattering that while they had the opportunity start fresh and establish their own identity, that they would use the nickname held by the parent guild since creation in March of 2006. Sort of like the Boston Bruins and the Providence Bruins.

    Anyway it is great to see guys like you, Eaux, and Don returning to the game. Feel free to hit me up in game if u ever need a group.

    Its nice to see that having 99% of ones guild leave has had a positive effect on your attitude sir. Hopefully this change applies to those who served and are actively serving in the military, your former attitude which prompted the mass exodus was not popular. It is also refreshing to see and hear that any gender issues you formerly had have been ammended, affirmative action at its finest welcome to the 21st Century Aces! I must say was quite surprising to be booted from a Storm Reaver raid involving Ace's members simply because of my new guild tag AOK given the positive well wishing you have, it was further disappointing receiving negative messages in private tells after the incident. What was not surprising I suppose was seeing the raid suddenly regroup in the tavern outside the quest to restore Hit Points and Mana, hopefully things went better the second time, I was not there to witness as I had changed characters to solo the raid... those Storm Reaver upgrade tokens are nice to have.

    As to the ship of AOK it was not purchased, it was one of several donated (I believe we have 3) by a well wishers pleased to see that so many grew tired and decide it better to give up millions of renown and keep the roster of fun loving rowdy players intact and actually see several old members on break return to join us despite recruitment efforts of other guilds. Its a great feeling knowing it takes less than a year to get back to where we were and still maintain ones integrity. Also it was nice retain our private chat channel so our friends in other guilds could remain in contact with us. Its the little things that make life worth living isnt it!

    The most interesting thing came to light when a former guildy came back, it turns out that all the 2010 football pool Platinum and FRDS thought to be stuck on his good friend and guildy's account while he was on break was actually left in the safe keeping of his guild leader at the time of his departure so that the winner of the pool could get their rewards. I wonder whatever happened to all that loot?

    Anyways congrats on the new recruits, I have played with several of them and they couldnt have found a better guild to join given their playstyle and ability, its a perfect fit!!
