Prepare.

The ultimatum is almost here.  In fact, my egregious actions of posting random nonsense deplore the fact that this actual post was made.  Nevertheless do not worry my brethren, the ultimatum is almost here...prepare.

Z's Personal Update

Hi guys, it's been a jazillion years since I last created an official update via blogspot.
This is one of my more personal blogs in order to fully convey all my information towards those who read this blog and for those who actually still take time to visit and such.
Anyways, without any wait, I wish to post this as an official Fall Season update.

Vindictus:
1. Ignition Update.  This is 90% of the what we're all waiting for.  It'll change the entire gameplay of vindictus.  New HUD, more HP potions, Invinc frames, Jump, Stat boost, Skill boost, did I mention Invinc frames?
2. Guild Update.  Prepare.  There's going to be a HUGE change in the guild once this comes out.
3. Morvan Update.  The new town will hopefully feature enhance/enchant and all other necessities that people find in Colhen to be in a rather tight spot.  That way players will be able to afk and such in Morvan, rather than Colhen.  Morvan is connected to Colhen.  You reach Morvan by going through Colhen docks.
4. Vella.  Female parts that shake.  Must I say more?
5. Hurk.  Some rumors, but apparently this character was "scrapped" when Beta was out.  He's a Two-handed giant sword wielder.  No news yet.

WeTheProud Community:
After contemplating many routes and organizing referendums for several issues, it's in the best interest that the guild tries to cut its numbers.  Summer was extremely hectic due to tons of people floating around and half of which I could personally not get to know.  One thing I do regret is losing several core members due to both inactivity and certain incidents.  However, we all make mistakes and as a result, the proper course of action to proceed with the guild is to simply control the activity.  This does not mean we're going to try to kill the community numbers itself, but rather try to close relationships among each other and build tight trust bonds so that the community can become one as a family again.
Ultimately, it's been fun so far and now that summer has officially ended, the game will proceed to hibernate and many players will quit.  As of now, the guild is in proper control, except for the fact that certain issues are still sprouting about and that we no longer use a main channel.  Albeit, hold your horses because in Morvan, we're going to make a lot of changes to the community.
Overall, Summer has been an interesting experience for us all.

Zokku:
This is probably the first post I've made that is personal and I wish to do so because I believe this is the proper time to finally announce to everyone, including those that are viewing this blog from other guilds that my time is limited.  By this I wish to make no promises nor oaths of the vague assumptions that comes from my statements, but consider that 2 years is long enough in leadership.

Personal rants:
1. Vindictus is a fast paced game, not in the sense of combat action, but in its content.  It's one of those games you play for about a few months then quit.  There's no substance in continuing to play such a game although I'm not exactly one to talk.
2. Evie is just plain out IMBA (Imbalanced).  There's no risk factor at all for this class and devs need to give the class more thrill and danger.  Especially in PVP, hops need to consume STA.
3. In my honest opinion, Kai was a failure as a class.  It has no unique attributes other than spamming arrows, which a certain class does already, but in another shape and form.  It's also one of the low DPS classes out there and cannot solo at all.  Then again, stutterstep needs to be removed.
4. If I could personally fix Vindictus, my number one suggestion would be to open a sourcemod like TF2/CSS.  We need more mods, gameplay styles, and a factor of skill.  Take out the enhance system.  Just give everyone plain weapons and let them duke it out based on skill and timing attacks.  More skills to balance this factor.
5. If I could place breasts on characters, then I'd put some on Lann.  Oh wait.
6. Vindictus is a free game, and as a free game you're going to meet some bad quality people with some bad quality customer service.

Closing statement:
As the community slowly dwindles in its numbers, it's time to say that WeTheProud is taking its steps towards a new form of guild.  It's time that WeTheProud no longer declares itself as a guild or community, but as a Team.

Prepare for Team WeTheProud.
