We all recognize Zorszaul to be at least a great pkiller, and many say a great rper.. and as in most cases, as it did with Istendil among others, people flock. I wonder, why aren't people lining up to join entropy? I suppose they can be, and since only immortals can induct, things may be slowed down. Hmm, I just realize the argument I'm going to make is going to seem like deja vu, but doing it anyway.
Does anyone notice that now that Dhaevor is leader, ragers are now more visible and sticking around? This is certainly true because more than 3 40+ ragers are around at all the times that matter. Now that I've established what I think is the validity of the statement, I proceed to ask why this is so. Is it the same "great char" effect as in the case of Istendil in the past? Or is it what others have suggest that all the opponents of Battle have taken this oppourtunity to roll up a rager and play? If this is so, why would anyone decide to "join the opposition"? I personally don't think Dhaevor is all that special. Maybe he is, I'm not interacting with him all the time, I can't say for sure. One thing I am sure of, and here comes the deja vu, is that most of the elite players know who the player of Dhaevor is. This is by no means a char assassination, unless you think not calling him special is mean. There is certainly a possibility that all these people flocked to rager's side because they know who plays Dhaevor. Bottom line, does this really matter? So the pendulum (sp) swings, who cares? Well, since it's common knowledge that Istendil was played by Nepenthe, what would you do if you found out who Nepenthe's playing now? What would you do if you found out who Llorenthos, Nastavnic's players are playing now? Does the pendulum need to be swung because of ooc reasons? I think not. Is this even a hint to ask Dhaevor to delete, absolutely not. This is more of a message to you losers who flock like vultures just because you know who's playing which leader of a cabal. Then again, the one flocked to can be more discreet as well. *shrug*
