I know nobody likes changes, but change is part of life. What matters most is how you weather those changes. In the end, eGO is more important than the houses were, and our loyalties should lie with the clan as a whole. You can still talk with the same friends and still play on the same servers. But maybe now people will feel like they can branch out to the other servers and make new friends.
Either way, I think this is a good idea and, while it may be a bit of a shock right now, this change will only serve to make us stronger as a clan on the whole.
