I refuse to lower my standards and let Bot guilds into the Sins Alliance or allow alliance members to use bot programs to obtain faction (or anything else for that matter). Because of this, Sins will not be competitive enough to even take Altrumm Ruins. If ANET decides to do anything about the bot infestation in Lutgardis, I may consider getting back into faction, but its not likely. Sins new focus will be on all PvE titles (including Kurzick), and starting a PvP program (most likely GvG). We will still hold some faction I'm sure for our members working on their Kurzick title, but there will be no faction req.
We will be taking in Guilds that share our new focus starting Monday September 8, 2008. GL's can whisper Abaren Valens if you are interested in joining the Sins Alliance.
