Look at how great the KBI kingdom are.
As they marched to war 2 nights ago, which ended up in sliver skulls losing their keep
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wef6g3r6ozE
you don't see this in darkfall do you :O
as you can see, the population is very much alive from the siege this sunday (13th), even mo has its ploblems, its going to be around for a long time 
it took weeks of prepation on the attackers side 
and it beared fruit :P
EDIT:
BTW THIS IS ONLY KBI KINGDOM (CHT AND WESSEX ,SoM) this is them marching to meet up with the rest of the alies like ascension, ely ASGD etc(Ascension alliance had already secured the keep)
against
SCAR alliance, and BRB, MYRM, ETC
I think the actual numbers was over 200 people when the siege started.
Comments
So where's the video of the attack?
All I see is 15 guys marching in a straight line, and given the information Henrik revealed about using "viral" marketing, this smells just like it. I'd like to see the video of the battle.
Um, ~10 guys on screen and the population is alive?
There's more people online on my guild's Warband server.
You're right I don't see 20 people slowly riding on horseback with a naked woman trailing in their wake in Darkfall.
Here's what you see in DF: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJETzhlMAEE (People actually fighting)
Steam: Neph
Um.. ange.. just a tip, 15 guys walking somewhere to quite loud music isn't as impressive as you might think.. Atleast not for those who are used to games with normal population. As for Darkfall.. Never got to experince it's PvP, but from videos Ive seen they have battles with hundred people or so, when we are talking preparations.
Here, just youtubed on "darkfall PvP" and a video 2 days old. Check around 08:55, there are atleast as many people as in your MO video, however that battle did not take weeks to prepare
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMFk4vtggXI
Oh, y, a bit strong language in that video..
What's funny is... Wessex just recently moved back to Darkfall.
Weeks of preparation to get 10-15 guys and a naked chick together? The porn industry can pull that off in 48 hours.
Honestly.. from the OP I expected to see hundreds of players. I thought maybe this was just one group and they would come over a hill to reveal the real army. Then.. I realized that there was no army and this was about a dozen or two guys that had "weeks of preparation" and that I just wasted a few minutes of my life.

War? Army?
I've seen more people afk mining trees and rocks in DF while there is a battle going on.
I've seen more people guarding one keep door in WAR. And that's almost every night.
come on now.

so negative lol...............this is just one guild that was marching to the keep
and wow, someone can't count lol,
the siege happened later, which consisted of a few guilds, ascension Alliance (AQ,reign,invictus etc) elysium aswell, against BRB and (Scar alliance) (dc,ss etc)
So it was newsworthy that there was a group of players in an MMORPG that were marching to an attack?
Also, many of the negative responses were due to the original title of your thread which has since been edited.
You also compared this video to Darkfall for some reason.. which of course invites responses based on the fact that Darkfall regularly had battles of hundreds (that's PLURAL) of players. I honestly think that MO fans should just stop trying to compare their game to other games like DF and/or EvE because they come out short every time. If you just posted the same video saying "Hey look this is my guild headed to fight!" you probably would have gotten a somewhat less hostile response. Instead you called out other posters and fans of another game...

mate you need to breathe lol, you think everyone here hates darkfall? or eve online, and really you call that a call out? i just said you don't see dudes in single lines marching towards a keep with a british theme song in a video.....
what is that to compare haha, the video is not for hating or comparing reasons, its just there to show what people do in MO.
really man, I am just showing a really cool video of wessex marching to a siege and as you can see the population is very much alive, with sieges and battles still happening.
but say what you want, and bash away at a video of a guild marching to war as much as you want, if it makes you feel better.
Funny you say that.... The same guy from my "Viral Marketing" post is also the same guy that posted the video above. adamchattaway

Coincidence???
Here's the actual battle http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuWSM93otJc after the march.

...but if you spam or abuse the report tool, penalties will apply.
They probably lost but had a whole 'epic' video planned out, and didn't want that time wasted to goto waste but wouldn't show the whole thing because of defeat.
Seems like that's the story whenever we get half/part of something from guilds in any game anyways, they usually lost and are sore losers.

Wow... OK.. first I just have to say that the absolute BEST part of the video occurs at 1:33 when there is a splash screen stating:
"At this point, the majority of our force crashed for some unknown reason and most of them were ganked by the enemy during the crash period"
Then.. someone said 200 people? I think we are about 150-160 short.

200??? More like 2 dozen, not counting the horses.

That makes more sense.. perhaps it was just a typo and he meant 20 but hit an extra zero...

@ OP
Is this meant to make me want to play MO...
lool, the siege went on for more then 13 hours, with attack in kranesh, a few attacks at the keep over the day-night....looool, you guys can't even see much from that video
, i think the opponents stood at around 40, while wessex alone was like 25, then cht, which was 15 or something, and then SoM, which was say 10 and then there was ASGD, I saw 5-6 of them, then there was AQ, there was like 4-6 of them, then there was ely which was like 20 I think then there was the rest of ascension which was like another 20+ and then there was some randoms hanging around the area like MG electrum who was just standing around, also a few myrm.
so numbers was in their 100's at least but obviously the siege happened over a night-evening period, so people went to sleep or logged off, which may have dropped numbers abit after the siege went on
Like, there was people in kranesh, a good lot, then there was people running around outside the keep, and then there was people transporting boulders etc and people running back to towns to get more equipment etc and there was alot of people in ghost form also waiting to be revieved or just watching the siege.
I stayed up to the keep went down around 3am, but they started sieging one of the houses afterwards which i was not around for, but obviously there so many negative people here, its quite funny and obviously im just letting people know but even if you bad mouth the game or just the video in general, it doesn't make a real big difference, so say what you want people....but who will the people believe? me....dude who plays the game and took part in the siege or someone who hangs in the forum
so you said? 20 people? hmmm looks like more people in the video to me, also you can't see everyone, as the majority of the people was around the catapults, houses, which had not loaded.
the fact is there was soooo many people on screen, people dropped to like 5fps or something and people was crashing who had their settings up so much or could not handle the huge amount........and the server been up and doing great for the last few weeks but as the siege went on it kept crashing because of the amount of people, it was quite funny seeing solo'ers and people not involved demanding the siege to be stopped and done at another time.
And I've taken part in a lot of sieges, but that was a huge battle, mostly one sided but usually the sieges was like 60-90, but one side was like that amount while the other was decent sized but I guess that what happens when a guild goes haywire on a server, being so aggressive against major powers.
Ely is a huge guild, its like an alliance by it self, and ascension has healhty numbers and also teh KBI kingdom is a very strong force also.
the only major alliance that did not take part in the siege or war was chaos alliance.
I am not denying the game has it ploblems, but its far from dead.
Here is the actual battle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuWSM93otJc There is max 30-40 people fighting. And half of them fatal errored during the fight. Which got almost all of them killed. I Love all the players saying "this is gay I am dead and expressing their frustration they can not have over 30 people in one area without it crashing.
Angel10, princereaper, whomever you are. People would not respond with so much hate if you did did not lie so much. Remember you are the one that said the game has no bugs and plays fine for months when we found out you were actually not playing. I would like to ask a question. Are you the same person posting on the ER forums saying MO is awesome and there are no bugs??? If so that is a blatant lie all you have to do is lightly skim the player forums in MO to see that. I agree with some of the other posters if you just posted a video and said hey check this out. People would not come on you so hard.
Also you can never compare DF sieges to MO. I played DF for 8 months and I was involved in a couple seiges. There were hundreds of players, not 10's of players.
All you have to do is look at the political in MO it is the same 15-20 people killing each other in MO over and over.
/thread
Also.. just to be clear here about honesty: Are you (Shogunone) the same guy who has donated the current MortalMarketplace ventrillo server to the community? If so, I would say that gives great weight to your post here (and others recently).

No slapshot I did not donate it I was just promoting it because, Orhalla is a good person and he is trying to push it so I was helping. Orhalla is a good person to follow on the MO forums as well he is not a fanbot and he gives accurate information as to the state of the game.
Yes, Did it work?
Spamming "Post Report" Tool
...but if you spam or abuse the report tool, penalties will apply.
So hold on a moment... You're talking about a huge battle with roughly ~100 people, where most of 1 side crashed and got subsequently destroyed?
And that battle was pretty much the WHOLE of the server getting together for a good scrap, except 1 major alliance? And Ely, a 20-man guild is like an alliance itself.
... Bit of a reality check is needed mate.
Remember: 15,000 subscribers required to break even & continue developing game. Either they lied(not the first time), or they're borrowing money left right & center.
I'm suprised Discord didn't come out to play, it is a PVP game even for GM's judging by his previous track record.
jaipers and orhalla don't even know anyone else who been promoting the marketplace.....and also orhalla is not the one who owns the server, he just a freind.
im the one who is promoting the server and there is no donations for the server as there is no need and there is another project we starting soon.
