The Glass is always half-empty on server 62.
... and half full on server 57.

It appears s62 burned its bridges. Took over all 9 cites, became a 1-guild server, and what happened?
LOW POPULATION.
Meanwhile s57 didn't. They kept the competition alive, which they chose to do. And what happened?
HIGH POPULATION.

Now s62 is whining.
THEY HAVE MORE PEOPLE!! (translation: they didn't kill their server)
WE CAN'T RECRUIT PEOPLE!! (translation: our server reputation sucks and no one will join us, even though we have the power)
THEY'RE GANGING UP ON US!! (translation: they're being wise in how to take down a more powerful guild)

Suck it up Buttercup.
