Asuryan's Flames

So I was on my private vent last night talk to a friend, who for the most part we have run around on Vortex and now on Skull Throne. We where talking about the fights that should have been taking place but have not. I started thinking on the subject a lot more, around the time that Slototh hit RR80, and for a week there after RVR was the best it had ever been, but now it has effectively died off, well not died off, but destruction has no fight in them.

This leads me to last weekend, Order for the first time on Skull Throne took a fort, and we almost had a second one, but we where finally thwarted at the last moment. Not even a month ago this would be unheard of. I am impressed at how far order has come on the server, but at the same time I am disappointed.

We are effectively back to a big game of musical keeps, with limp attempts to fight back. Now from time to time there is a good solid defense, but that is still few and far between, so what happened. Was Slototh the glue that held them together, or is it that destruction is in a time of transition?

I personally think the latter, in that with the old guard, aka Slototh taking a break, someone has to step up and lead the massive forces of destruction. Until then, there will be just a shell of what destruction had been.
