Not to long ago we had a good amount of activity here on siege but where did they all go? we are back to our basic people again i love this shard but we keep loosing our new comers i personally dont understand why, well not true i guess, i understand some of the people leaving.
Newer people, they ask how the shard is doing and we always have someone from here saying" its dead" and "dont get discouraged if ya never see anyone we all stealth" and always someone brings up "diablo" personally i dont think any of these comments are good for us, why do we say them?
We do tell them about NEW which is a great idea but then when the new comers decide to give the shard a try and we get them into NEW all they get told about GIL and showed all the GIL locations. Basically NEW is becoming a starting point to for the GIL alliance (not saying anything bad about GIL just gotta prove my point about NEW). Ive watched an emissary of NEW show a player around and instead of showing them the shard i watched the NEW emmissary take them to GIL vendors tell them about GIL and the hub and that was the end of there oriantaion to NEW. I thought NEW was to introduce them to the shard not prep them for GIL. We have other non-faction guilds out there other then the GIL alliance dont we? Well hell even our factions guilds should get mentioned to new comers we have O-S, VNTY, I4NI, and hell personlly i think even diablo's guild should be an option shown to them(im sorry if i left anyone out) . NEW emissaries should stay nutreal when showing NEW the shard.
after typing this out i guess its more of me venting but im gonna post it anyway i wanna hear the comments
