Made a char a couple weeks ago and there's just no sign of anything going on. Haven't seen one noble in that time and the only events I've heard of were the typical humdrum stuff like scripted militia RPTs. The GMHs are completely silent, haven't so much as seen a Kadian. Guild has one member. Militia seems populated but don't appear to really do anything besides the 20 year old routine. People in bars all seem like newbie nobodies. The hell is happening?

I dunno. Saw 53 people online at 7pm pacific tonight with no mass RPT on.
What are you expecting, exactly? A game wide plotline, or?

I think it's relative to your expectations.
There are a fair number of people on, but most of them aren't doing much... relative to my personal expectations. I've seen the game when it was in it's prime and when "things happening" were more intense, involved more people and the stakes tended to be on a scale that has long since been phased out of the current game. Now, a half dozen people hanging out in the roasting pits is "things happening", or there's the budding democratic process in Luirs complete with anti-racist American standards, you could call that "things happening", too.
I wouldn't, but you could.
Set the standard low enough, for long enough, and people will eventually accept it.
It must be what's popular though, because there are a lot of people on, even if I can never seem to find them...

So, big fat surprise for everyone. A gigantic murder-fest erupted today in Armageddon where half the Arm and two Templars were cut down to nothing but a bloody/burnt pulp. For anyone who still has game access, they can tell you as much.

It's an Arm plot so it must be spiders, mantis, or gith.

Does anyone know what caused the murder fest? Man that sounds fun Actually, here's the rundown. We have three Templars involved in this, and we'll call them George, Nyr, and Girl respectively. Nry and Girl have hated each other for quite some time. On Caravan Road, on a completely random basis, Nyr went on and attacked Girl out of sheer anger. The Arm also happened to be there too, and they happened to attack one of them during the fight. Neither Nyr nor Girl was hurt, but, every Arm member involved in the attack was sentenced to the Arena by a Red Robe (staff). Because a Templar killing a Templar is okay, but a soldier attacking a Templar? That's a big no-no. So, they told George to bring everyone who was involved, including a Recruit, all into the Arena to execute all of them, and he did, and all of the Arm members in there were slaughtered. But for some reason, Nyr went in super angry without the Red Robes' say, and tried to stop George from killing the Arm members. George killed him. Girl was then sent in by the Red Robes to get rid of George, or maybe she went in on her own terms, but anyways. George also killed Girl too. That's the summary I've built up through all the events, but it all may not be 100% accurate. Someone correct me on things just in case.

That's the summary I've built up through all the events, but it all may not be 100% accurate. Someone correct me on things just in case. This really underlines some of the most obnoxious things about Armageddon. 1) I would bet good money that the Arm crew that got slaughtered, was very active, and had some espirit d'corp, and was probably mostly comprised of newish players. Staff loves to find groups like that, which aren't completely cynical and jaded yet, and shitting all over them. This is just my instinctive opinion, after having seen like, thirty identical incidents take place. If it was the typical arm crew, they wouldn't have given a shit about the templars, or else would've more correctly deduced which one the staff favored. 2) It's super ironic, and a kiss of death, to be remarked upon as one of the few active or bright spots on the game, as these guys were, shortly before their doom. Hilarious, but predictable. 3) This is probably why one of the templars didn't want 'George' to kill them. But who really knows when it comes to templars. About 1 out of 3 are good people, and 2 out of 3 are staff alts, or sycophants who've played several templars already. 4) Finally, whenever some kind of mayhem like this happens, it's 99% of the time never allowed to fall out in an organic fashion. It's ALWAYS some dumbass staff NPC that comes in and kills everyone or gets them killed. This has happened more times than anyone can count. But it would be an interesting novelty if arm staff ever learned to not compulsively measure their dick size against their own playerbase.

But maybe nothing in Armageddon has to anymore.

Someone was gonna get executed and that person turned on everyone and it was a slaughter. Then all that was left was two templars one of them killed the other.
