halfway down is the money shot, Vantage reborn and Vendak (venthos alt's name) in the spotlight once again. The article itself is written by some softserve pansy assed mommas boy, but amusing nonetheless.
here's the excerpt of note, sounds awful familier... like this happenned before someplace... OMG it's fucking EQ drama all over again!
The Guild: Vantage. This guild did do some initial growing, and Vendak (the guild leader) is a very active guy. He is good at putting together dungeon crawls and the like, and is a pretty fun guy in general.
The Drama: For whatever reason, the guild didn’t grow beyond a limited size. I don’t know why. I was working nights, so I was a bit disconnected from day-to-day events. But Vantage seemed to suffer from some of the same problems as the second phase of WoG had.
It seemed most Vantage events were organized by either Vendak, the leader, or Chud. The size of the guild was an issue as well. We were on a low population server, which may have affected the guild’s ability to recruit people.
The Bitchfit: Again, no real bitchfit to this one. The problem that affected the guild was that, quite suddenly, Chud left.
He posted a message about his decision on the guild website. He entitled his own post “Chud the Bastard”. In his post, he explained that he wanted to be able to do end-game content. Vantage wasn’t really set up for that. He acknowledged that his leaving might cause a bit of upset, and he apologized for it. Personally, I was never upset with Chud for leaving. I think Chud just needed some like-minded power raiders, and he got tired of running so many events for the rest of us. He left to join some other guild, supposedly composed of power players. His girl Fletcha soon followed.
We hung on in Vantage for a while after that, but the activity level wasn’t great. Chud’s leaving really affected things. Chud and Vendak had, more or less, divided up activities, and led the guild in running instances and whatnot. With Chud gone, our activity level decreased 50%. It wasn’t bad, mind you. It was just kind of meh. And then Elvyra got an invite from her friend Kierae to join the guild Hot Chix.
