It is hard to say, but lately I have noticed that the number of players online in Celestia is reducing gradually, wich means that Celestia is fading.
Not only Celestia, but I´m affraid my guild is fading too. In MF usually more than 10 players are online simultaneously everyday around 10 o´clock PM (in Brazil), but nowadays I barely see 2, and one of them usually is AFK in some corner of any city bored with no party. The ones that become Trans 9X/5X, 6X seemed to lose the passion to level up their characters, most of those are playing DoTa in Warcraft III FT waiting some decision of MF leaders or are playing because are bored with the RO work.
I know that MW is a bigger guild than MF, and plays in other servers, other games and the like. I admire that, it is very cool to see a group of friends like you. But I don´t know for how much time people of MF will keep logging there, now that some are looking for another server believing that Celestia will end sooner or later. I talked with some that are searching server, and they told me that they´re looking for an active server, with active GMs, with much more events (not only MVP oriented events and the like), with GMs that punish KSers, botters and the like, and with a interesting WoE.
They recognize that WoEs with MW are special because MW is a honored guild with amazing players, loyal fighters and good friends, also they recognize that both guilds (MF and MW) are doing their best, even with few characters against might alliances, and we are doing great WoEs, but they are tired because our enemies are the same, the main WoE strategy for any guild, even changing cities each month, is becoming the same every weekend, and the main expression that I´m seeing in their faces is: "Boring". I lost permanently a player that doesn´t wanna play RO anymore, and our guild if full-RO oriented, because the girls from MF doesn´t like other games and others too.
I know that all of this can be just a dark phase that Celestia is passing through, but the main reason of MF members´ behaviour is the number of players in Celestia, that loses everyday at least someone and they aren´t observing new celestia players.
I need to say this, we came from Evo-RO, and the same happened there. One guild left, so, some weeks after, another, and after some weeks another 3 guilds, and suddenly an entire alliance moved, and so on until one single alliance rest in the server, until they didn´t fight in WoE because there wasn´t enemy (that´s why some guys that saw the server end told me). Those that are complaining, are using this argument, and I´m not blind and I´m observing people leaving, which makes me sad, we fought so hard to build up an entire alliance, and now, everything is fading so suddenly.
But to be honest, the worst thing of the end of Celestia, is the "end" of our alliance. Since 2005 I´m the GuildMaster of Moriquendi Federation, and since that, they all follow my steps, or we plan the way to walk through. Everyone in MF agree that there isn´t a guild better to ally than Multiworld, and they really care about this. In other servers, we build up our guild, build up our army, strategies and many other things that a guild should do, but actually even with allies, we barely received any help of them, in most of cases MF did some great WoEs fighting alone against alliances of 2,3 and even 4 guilds. But in Celestia, I am sure that our teamwork (MF + MW) made the good results that we got, and you guys can be sure that in any server that we meet, you can count with us.
I´m very thankful about our friendship, and I know it can be a bit early to confirm this about MF, but 2 years is a considerable period of time to know well my guildmates, and I´m sad to say this, but they are leaving.
I wish best luck to all MW members, from Celestia, from Ethereal, from WoW, any game, if you are from MW, you are our friends.
Thanks a lot guys, specially Hildegunst (gvs), Crow and Fooh. I hope this isn´t a farewell, but something like "C ya sooner, brother".
