CLUB LOYALTY IS NOT ATA'S PROBLEM
I don't know why you people continue complaining and moaning about that for 100 pages now. That is a club/individual problem. And as a PROUD LBH I will tell you there is a lot of loyalty among us with the clubs that consistently welcome us along to their parties, treat us with respect in their clubs, and freely engage in great conversation with us in CC while we party. And you know what happens?
We. Come. Back. To. Help. Out. Again.
Not everyone who LBH is an actual merc, so those who aren't go back to their HC. Those of us who are perm mercs because get this— being a perm member in a club isn't a requirement with playing this game we remember those clubs that treated us with respect, didn't gripe and moan about some pseudo-concept of "club loyalty" and we either visit again often or help them out when they need to.
So get off your high horse about LBH being some sort of problem. You said you realized we're not yet you keep bringing us up anyway. Clearly you have some personal issues against LBH or are jealous that you have to work your butt off to try and get these hunt rewards. Those people who got in Top 200 consistently are dedicated—and I saw plenty with small stats make it—I know because I interacted with them and tried to keep up and couldn't.
But go shovel your HATE elsewhere. We get it, you don't like LBH, probably think they're the scum of the earth mucking up how good PIMD was in the good ole days.
Get. Over. It.
And also take some individual responsibility. Stop trying to completely sideline LBH and say "because it's not fair" when really your statements of "truth and justice" are rotting over with your own skewed bias and hate. LBH is NOT the issue so stop using is as a stomping post to your own soap box.
