Hi Mkillerh,
KTA is an abbreviation for "Kill Them All". The idea was to find a group of HC players who who wanted to play through Normal, Nightmare and Hell and not rush it. Take the time to kill all the monsters, find all the WP's, complete all the quests and do it untwinked using only the gear found by team members.
We play legitmately using no hacks of any type. We don't trade at all with outside players, instead we just share all the items we find in game with each other.
In reality, we don't actually kill every single monster, but we sure do make a big dent in the monster population
We started first on Europe, and are now up to reincarnation number 8 there. KTAeast started recently, and if you wish to start such a group on West, that would be pretty cool.
Big thing is trying to get 8 or so fellow Diablo'ers who can commit to playing on a regular basis for about 7 weeks. If you play for 2-3 hours, twice a week, this is the approximate time it'll take to become a Guardian.
My personal epxerience with KTA has been great. I have met some excellent people on the Europe realm, and have had a really fun time. Nothing beats playing this game in a co-operative party where you always have someone covering your back and you don't have to worry about PK'ers and such.
I wish you well on getting a team going on West.
Regards
Syxx
