Algunos miembros abandonan Method y forman nueva guild

Hace un par de días:

Hey guys,

I have some exciting news. I have decided to go full-time into streaming alongside co-managing the Method organisation. Many of you are aware that previously I was working in the Finance sector for a large US Corp, and while the money and things were good I had always found myself in a conflicting situation. Trying to juggle full-time work, streaming, WoW, the Method organisation, and then every other normal IRL activity meant my focus was very divided and time was always an issue. I have been at a cross roads for a long time, the internal battle between deciding if I should drop the gaming/Method and focus on my Finance career or vice versa. It was a really big decision for me, but in the end I knew where my heart was and I really wanted to give the streaming and Method organisation a chance and see where it leads. Worst case scenario I suppose I am back in the Finance sector 1 year from now with a renewed focus, knowing I tried and without regrets.

To talk a little about the Method organisation which I co-manage with Sascha “Rak”; Method is no longer just a WoW PvE team. Method has branched out to incorporate WoW PvP, Hearthstone, CS:GO, and individual streamers playing under the Method name. Good progress is being made and we are continually working towards the end goal of establishing Method as a recognisable eSports team .

When it comes to streaming, I need to lock down a schedule but right now I am thinking 5-6 nights a week, so you will be seeing a lot more of me from now on! Will probably need to find some other games to play alongside WoW (open to suggestions!) but we will for sure be doing 1-2 sub/viewer runs a week.

Thanks for your support up until now towards both me and Method, long may it continue (I hope!). See you guys on the stream

Y hoy:

Hey guys,

As you are probably aware already there are big changes happening in Method. There are a lot of issues at play that caused this, some more complex than others – a psychologist could probably write a novel on the situation. There has been a pretty bad atmosphere and strained relationships in Method, and while in the past the unified goal of pushing for world first has kept the guild together this is evidently no longer the case. In short a very basic summary of issues that caused separation;

• World of Warcraft, and more specifically hardcore raiding is in decline. There is a lack of competition; 2 Horse race versus Paragon each tier. The effort required to raid at a hardcore level (locked away for 2-3 weeks) is not necessarily enjoyed as much as it previously was.
• People are motivated to play by different factors and at various levels, as always external factors like money are involved.
• Lack of leadership. To state it plainly; the member’s faith in the officer team’s ability to lead due to motivation and drive wasn’t at its strongest. Over time there has been a ‘transfer of power’ between the officer team and the members. For example raid leading was done by Kuznam and certain other activities was being organised by members.
• Different views on the Method expansion inside and outside WoW.

These issues have split the guild over time and various cliques have sprung up along the way damaging the ‘one team one dream’ nature. Unfortunately key people such as Kuznam (raid leader), Pottm (organised a lot for T18), and a few others have decided they would rather start afresh in a new guild alongside those they closely associate with. The remaining members are left with a choice and to cut straight to the point, many members will obviously follow the raid leader which is understandable.

In regards to the future for Method; there is 0 intention of letting the Method guild die. We will use the resources at our disposal to rebuild the guild. I have already been speaking to people externally and I have no doubt we will get something good going. The approach to expansion release and next tier will remain hardcore raiding and while world first will obviously be a stretch depending on how many core members we lose, we will still be aiming for the highest rank achievable. With the way the current raiding scene is at the moment, we are also investigating the possibility of streaming the entire progression. Will let you guys know more when I know more. Thanks for your support.

#3 Relaciones varias que echaban chispas, gg wp, cya nerds

Esto me acerca más a Method, voy a lanzar apply. Os actualizo con el resultado.

#7 porque ganaba mucha pasta con la organización y la publicidad como para ser worth, y como es el que lleva el cotarro, pues se pillará un buen pellizco xD

Lo cuál no tiene nada que ver con que lo que diga es verdad, la "carrera" en el WoW era entre method y paragon.

Nihilum esta haciendo lo mismo. Ambos tienen dos equipos (mediocres todo hay que decir) de CSGO en USA y quieren meterse en los eSports que ya se está manejando una cantidad considerable de pasta.

#16 Soy de Cádiz, tiendo a exagerar, no te ralles. xD

#22 He pensado lo mismo nada más leerlo xD

que bien redactar
