这只是一个愚人节玩笑!
在3月31日晚,《魔兽世界》全球第一公会Nihilum(欧洲)会长Kungen宣布,由于对暴雪在太阳井中的种种不合理设置,让其公会成员对游戏产生不满,最终决定解散公会,不再为副本进度奋斗。
>>关于Nihilum公会
该消息一出,在魔兽界引起了很大反响,Nihilum作为《魔兽世界》全球副本进度最快的公会,不仅仅在玩家心目中有很高的声望,并且其也对暴雪的设计产生了一些影响。很多人担心他们的解散会让《魔兽世界》的PVE进一步削弱。
由于消息发布的第二天就是4月1日愚人节,因此很多人也猜测该任务为Nihilum的愚人节玩笑,但是很多人在登陆Nihilum所在的服务器后发现,很多Nihilum的会员已经退会并且加入了其他公会,种种迹象表明Nihilum的解散是真的!
Nihilum的主力们都退会加了其他公会:
就在大家为Nihilum的解散感到万分惋惜的时候,4月2日,Kungen再次在Nihilum的首页发表了新的公告:这只是一个愚人节玩笑!
下面是Kungen发布的公告原文节选:
别担心—Nihilum依然在!之前的消息吓到大家了,非常抱歉。
我们之前发布的“Nihilum解散”的消息只是一个愚人节的玩笑,为了确保真实,我们甚至在游戏里面让会员退会并加入其他公会。非常感谢大家对此表现的关心和对我们之前成绩的赞赏,我们都没有意料到有如此多的朋友在关心着我们这个小公会。我爱你们!我们这个网站将会回馈给你们更多东西,我们将发布更多更酷的东西,比如关于太阳井的消息,敬请期待!
退会的会员都已经加回了公会:
随后,Kungen还表示,暴雪在《魔兽世界》2.4版本的新副本“太阳井”中加入了开门的设置,是一个非常愚蠢的举动,这使得一些进度快的公会在率先击杀了副本前几个BOSS后,还要等待其他公会赶上,才能继续击杀后面的BOSS,这对于进度快的公会是非常不公平的。同时,Kungen还呼吁,各PVE公会要加大自己的呼声,让暴雪知道玩家们真实的想法。
最后,Kungen强烈要求暴雪去掉新副本中的开门限制。并将副本中的门比喻成“柏林墙”:里根曾对戈尔巴乔夫说:“拆掉这道墙!”这也正是我对暴雪的恳求:“拆掉这些门!”

APRIL FOOLS!
Don't worry - Nihilum remains. Sorry for the scare everyone! :o)
Hi all,
The "Nihilum quits" story is an elaborate April fools joke that we tried to carry out as realistically as possible, hence the /gquit in-game and people joining other guilds. We're very thankful for the attention and appreciation that people have shown us, we had no idea that so many care so much about our little guild; We love you all too! - This website exist as the means for us to give back to you guys, the community. You can expect a lot of cool stuff for you all to view and read throughout Sunwell.
Regarding the Gate Locking system
We however do feel that the gate locking systemBlizzard has put in place is plain out stupid, even though this April fools joke wasn't intended as a means to "whine" about the issue, we do feel that as a PvE guild we should raise our voices regarding these "walls", and we hope that other PvE guilds feel the same. As an old school raider from all the way back in Everquest, I have to say that including a system like this is extremely discouraging and basically ruins the whole spirit and essence of PvE for guilds that follow the old school ways. PvE races have been in the nature of MMORPGs since the dawn of time. Why do Blizzard want to ruin that?
As Ronald Reagan said to Mikhail Gorbachev: "Tear down this wall" - Such is my plea to Blizzard: "Tear down these gates".
The right and proper way would be that when you kill 1 boss the next one is available to you. Remove the gates. Allow guilds to have their fun and enjoy MMORPGs as they were always intended in PvE guild terms. This change wouldn't ruin anything for casuals or anyone at all who plays the game.
The current state of PvE racing in World of Warcraft is basically like if those in the lead in, for example, Tour de France had to wait for everyone else to catch up several times on a stage before being allowed to proceed. How can this be fair or even a reasonable and logical approach.
"TEAR DOWN THESE GATES!"
