A few comments.
TCO -
[Phos] - ALL CLERICS TARGET ME~!
I was in Paradox before I went to TCO, and went back after TCO fell apart (see phos/catarene incident).
Thus the start of the friar craze, and the time of Ninjac. (which is most important).
Also, post that, the Gallandra/Atilla "incident", and eventual decline of Paradox. Paradox certainly let anyone in the guild or in DOTC group, and we tried to make larger groups --> 2-3fg.
"
Along with this new resurgeance, a former zerg overlord decided to try his hand at this '8v8'. Ahamade (aka Xiem) had left <TCO> before <The Feared> was formed and joined <Paradox>. dox/DoTC started running 8man groups, though they didn't adhere to strict 8 much at all back then, though they did attempt it, and it was a start of something.
"
We ran 8 a-team with b-team fills, and on busy nights and keep takes we certainly ran the whole guild together.
Anyone who played some in paradox went to <Dark Valor>.
<Dark Valor> had an "incident", thus <Recoil> was born.
The whole point is there was a hell of a lot of alb/lance drama.
Alb/lance has all the drama.
Also <The Feared> - "We invented the RA dump." <-rofl
