Reinstate order and chaos guilds.

[Kano]

Why were these done away with anyway? There are a lot of smaller guilds out there made up of groups of friends who want to war other guilds (but don't know about each other), and NO ONE ever agrees to any kind of serious war. This gives those who wish to war a chance to do so. It's like a simpler factions without having to worry about others coming to interfere. It used to be so sweet. What harm would it do to reinstate this?

Because the number of guilds declined to a point where there was only 17/14 on Atlantic and hardly anyone in those guilds. This is down from around 100 each side just a couple years ago with quite a few players. Almost every other shard had lower participation numbers. It saw less action than Factions. There was just a no reason to keep it in and complicate the new guild system.

If they redo factions, Order & Chaos could be the theme. There are already two "good" factions (True Britannians and Council of Mages) and two "evil" (Shadowlords and Minax).

No, no, no, In Care Bears 101, if you are not lovey dovey, go away.....

When Chaos/order was put into the game, joining one or the other was the only way to get a Chaos or Order Sheild, and at that time, they were the best in the game. Care Bears wanted the sheild, but were not ready to be attacked with out written permission in advance from congress, so they cried.......And thus it was done away with.

After all, it simply not fair to join Chaos, and know that anyone in Order can attack you, at any time, any place, even though you know this when you joined in the first place. Not fair at all.....

This time if we join Order can we get an Order Surcoat matching Lord British's?

Likewise if we join Chaos can we get a Chaos Robe matching Lord Blackthorn's?

This should have been part of the current event, "Choosing side".

Great idea!

In other words, devs are lazy. Yeah, but as you so frequently point out Link, factions suck because people just bring reds and interfere with the factioneers, and faction bases are too trapped to hell to contain any sort of battles. No traps, no interfering parties. It'd be fun again, like it used to be.
