Shut up about it already. Srsly.
And I would be leeching this, but I have drill that weekend, so no assurances I'll make it in time. But trust me, if I can, I will take at least 1 of those 50 slots and be useless.

First and foremost, I feel the need to apologize to the community.
When returning to the game a few weeks ago, I started trying to get the community interested in Hami raiding again. After a couple of weeks of mixed feedback, someone asked me if I would lead a raid if they got it set up. I agreed, not knowing that he was speaking for someone else. After a couple hours, it was posted on the forums, and I was a little apprehensive because we had not worked towards setting anything up before announcing anything. I spoke to this person ingame about the team leads, and he named a number of people that I've played with and/or heard alot about, all of which are VERY active in the comminity. To say the least, I was extremely relieved that my expectations for the leads we would have were far beyond what I thought we would have. Then there was the scheduling during double xp weekend, which scared me a bit on whether we would have a decent turnout. I noticed that this person was a little too enthusiastic, posting what seemed like every hour about the raid, but looked past that. But these were not big problems and decided to try to make it anyway.
I sent him a PM earlier to get those leads lined up in their proper positions, so I could make sure they were well prepped before the raid, and noticed he was looking for leads on the forums, not having the previous people mentioned lined up after all. I threw my hands up and went to work. With all the problems mounting, I decided to postpone the raid for a bit, until I could get things set up properly. After getting home, I noticed that he has now been cross posting in other threads and pissing alot of people off. And for that, I am apologizing. I never wanted to "attempt" to reign him in, due to looking like I was trying to "steal all the glory", or that I was on some kind of power trip, but I probably should have tried.
So, now I'm officially cancelling the raid until further notice, or at least any and all involvement on my part. Hamidon raiding's future was already in jeopardy, and I don't want everything that's been said in the past few to days to make it worse. I just hope and pray what little life blood might've been left in it, isn't now gone.
I don't want to discourage anyone from attending any raids scheduled by other individuals, but I also don't want people to show up to a raid that fails (not to say that they will), and put that final nail in the coffin for Hami raiding in the future for Infinity. A few people have tried to lead raids before I did and after, and have failed due to not knowing the process, the enemy, or by not being well prepared. I can't claim that I am the only person on Infinity that can succeed, because I know better, but alot of failed raids have SEVERELY damaged the support from the community on this, and I don't want to lose the chance at bringing it back to our server.
If anyone is interested in trying to bring back the raids, or to lend support in any way, feel free to message me here, or ingame to @Cremzen.
Again, I want to apologize to anyone that has been upset or annoyed by what's happened.
Not quite a hero;Not yet a villain
Ok, so theres several postings/threads, the info is getting out maybe too much. SORRY! I put the post out for leaders just in case the ones I planned on would not be able to participate. If its wrong to have more than just six Team Leaders, then so be it. I have always tried to be prepared for the worse. I am only trying to get the info out. How many times have we opened a posting seen theres pages to it and skim them. I only started new post so it would be seen. So with that said I stop here. The times of EoE's farming and Raid are out there, if you want to participate please do. You know how to find me, if you want my help. I am only trying to help make things on Infinity alittle better. Good Hunting...Wolf-ire

Why are you pissed off that someone else is excited about an event?
|
We're not pissed at him being excited, we have our feathers ruffled because he spammed it. That's all. Maybe if Infinity boards were a bit more active, it wouldn't be as obvious, but when you got blueside chatter going on in a redside thread...
....we're cranky old farts. Git offa mah thread!
OK, fair enough. I just don't want us old buggers scaring off the newbs, is all.
Threatening to grief an event just seemed a disproportionate response to spamming, and I was curious if I'd missed some hidden dramz. I'm dense that way, so typically, I do.

No that's just eran. He'd probably leech a raid his own SG led - but he probably wouldn't be totally worthless. I'm sure he'd let his team atleast get vengence off his corpse while he dual boxed a TF or something.

That would suit Eran..... He can't do much else.... Except whine... Here is some cheese for his whine.
I miss you too Eran... You amuse me. Nothing but drivel and whining... it's amusing, just adds to the drama.
dUmb- we grief ourselves
Infinity and Victory mostly
dUmb, etc.
lolz PvP anymore, Market PvP for fun and profit
