I always wanted to try doing something in Kusari, but every-time I've tried to consider my options I've been massively deterred by the group of individuals who keep a tight grip on all the pixels, whilst contributing little or nothing to the actual environment. I considered joining the Blood Dragons, but it became clear that it's only a parody of itself at this point. The Farmers Alliance were a tempting second option but they're deader than a can of spam right now.
To sum it up, the choices available are either terrible or devoid of any signs of life. Kusari is perhaps a representation of the worst tendencies of the server. So even with Yao flooding my DMs asking me to join the Naval Forces and contribute, which I know I can, the motivation to do so is as nonexistent as the canonical consistency of Kusari. Sometimes it's surprising how a small handful of friends can ruin an entire experience if left to themselves.
