In today riot has 16 members RTEing mobs out of window in ST! Is it the koolaid or are they perhaps practicing how to RTE?

The real Wallicker or the real Zipity? We were neighbors and shared toons but he has since beaten Everquest by getting married, upgrading jobs and quitting the matrix. If you really must know, I now have control of his toons and forum account to try and better or worsen his reputation - all is still up in the air.

You know all your old Discord posts are still in Discord servers that you've left? It's a matter of record that your Discord account was originally Wallicker.
Changing the name to Zipity doesn't remove all that context.
And that's how you applied to Riot. You were rejected on the basis of you pretending to be someone you're not.
That's a creepy reason for rejection. As far as I know, you're the only one who has ever qualified for that.

It's just a total coincidence that the culture of elf-litigation lawyerquesting, petitions, and overall pettiness, which was mostly dormant for nearly a year, happened to make a quick and speedy resurgence at the same time that AM 5.0 (now with more <Freedom>!) formed up. Surely, we can't link the two things. We can add to that coincidence that practice of coming to the forums to gloat about being super awesome at a videogame from the Clinton era, and of complaining about how not-awesome another group of elf-nerds is.

I love that you're going to pretend that the last 1.5 years has been some terrific experience on p99 for people who raid outside of Riot. Outside of the first month or two, Riot leadership has let the guild become a toxic entity.
There is another total coincidence that has also correlated with a higher frequency of petitions: Riot, for the first time in its existence, is losing some cycles and are bitter as fuck over it. Instead of the leadership in Riot stepping up and welcoming the competition they are filing 18 page legal briefs for why they have been wronged. I've seen some of them, and I'm still reeling from the cringe.
As always, Riot membership are generally cool as fuck. Riot leadership is failing its members and the server.

I'm not in Riot, and I can say pretty unequivocally that raiding was better after AM fucked off to go on permanent BBQ sabbatical, and has been worse since they've come back.
Example: Post-Green release, during the late fall 2019/early winter 2020, mobs like Eashen, and Ikkatiar were left untouched so other guilds could take a shot at learning the encounters, and even (heavens forbid) get some loot that would otherwise be unattainable.
Meanwhile, the first thing that <guild> did when it came back was trash the first golem race agreement, and snipe the sunday-afternoon Vindi that had been left up for (at the time Stream Team) for months. He's not a raid mob, after all - kiting him around for 10+ minutes to deny Stream Team was a mature, adult, thing to do.
I'm not , pretending Riot is without fault - they're certainly not. The zerg, being hungry, had a tendency to inhale almost everything. They can be condescending. They acted like they were benevolently dispensing favors when they would deign to let someone else have a thing. But the outsider's perspective is that they were more of a good-faith operator than <whatever you're calling yourselves these days>. The fact that in the face of that perception your reaction is essentially to say "no u," is telling.

Freedom has every interest in making this environment a fun and competitive place to play, especially for smaller guilds. I don't believe Freedom competing with you for Vindi has become a regular thing, nor would it. Riot not giving you free attempts at Eashen and Ikatiar is definitely something you should take up with them, however.
If Stream Team would ever like to work with Freedom on anything hit me up. We would love to find a way to mend that Vindi and more. What sort of day time EST availability does Stream Team have?

You are aware that there was no litigation because there was no one competing with you right? As soon as competition arose, you guys have been slamming petitions left and right. We have written like 2 petitions against Riot and they have written about 9 against us.
This is what happens when you get scared and start losing. You then resort to petitioning in hopes that you can rebuild morale with free kills.

Because I'd agree, Riot's reign has been exactly like AM's with the exception that they don't come talk mad shit on this board every week like that. In game its been effectively the exact same situation, maybe felt a bit worse for a while in some ways due to the initial surge of interest in green late last year.

Well, you'll have to ask them that, I'm not in <Lighthouse>. That Vindi was just an early, obvious, example of the kind of behavior I'm talking about here. I don't recall the exact timeline, but memory says that <guild> hadn't even been around for an entire week when that happened. Old habits die hard, I guess.
I feel like you didn't read very well. Riot (and AG, for that matter and for whatever it's worth) did allow for some uncontested shots at mobs in ToV, including Eashen and Ikatiar. The free attempts at the mobs is kind of besides the point, though. It's just meant to be an example which demonstrates why, despite all its many faults Riot's time as the #1 guild was better for most of the server. Pretty sure AG's end of that bargain was to get all of VP uncontested that cycle. What are the odds in the current climate of an agreement like that taking shape again? Pretty bad, I'd say. FFS, we can't even agree on how not to make ring wars awful.
Sure, though. Everyone is equally to blame, of course. It's pure coincidence that these things happen when and how they do.

You have made exactly two specific claims repeatedly. That Ghxst shit all over a Vindi outside of the usual Sunday agreement. Note that this is Ghxst not Freedom and was under very different and apparently less focused and more disorganized leadership.
Secondly that at some point Kittens and other guilds were gifted attempts on a couple NToV mobs, but that appears to have been as much due to the population crash on blue than who was the top raid guild at the time.
I guess you're also adding in rotations now but why the rotations got nuked varies by who you ask. Again, Ghxst were being shitbags with RW and ST and that sucks that it led to the situation that we have now. But Ghxst isn't Freedom they are very different entities which should be clear by now, despite the membership they share. Regardless of the initial catalyst for ditching rotations, it is fully Riot that's currently refusing to consider rotating again as I understand it (not a UN rep or anything).

You're the only one actually engaging substantively here, so +1. There doesn't appear to be a major different between Ghxst and Freedom, from the outside observer. The denial of this obvious fact is part of the point here. There's a pretty consistent through-line of leadership, and general membership, running from old-AM to the current Freedom. Adding a handful of disaffected Riot leadership doesn't really change that underlying dynamic. You guys still have the old AM guild bank, I presume?
The uncontested mobs that were agreed to at that time also are not the point in and of themselves. It just demonstrates that <R> was, in some ways, better to work with. If and when <F> decides that they are also willing to exercise some forbearance here and there, I'm happy to admit I'm wrong.
It might even be that Riot is the main party preventing a ring war agreement. I know when I've socked Badain they certainly seem content with the current status quo, so it's not like I hold them blameless. What's the <F> proposal for a ring war agreement?

Just so you're aware, the less toxic guild (Riot) you've been going on about is the singular entity that is preventing this. Freedom and AG both support some form of rotation (competitive rotation would be fun, but willing to look into anything). Riot is the reason the most recent agreement was dissolved.

Pretty open really. Something that doesn't involve a ridiculous waste of time click fest above all else. I even think it would be great for the server to occasionally do a fully cooperative ring war. It's a unique event that is actually enjoyable and I see no reason why we couldn't, on occasion, enjoy it together. But click fests? That blame is squarely on the shoulders of Riot.

Pretty open really. Something that doesn't involve a ridiculous waste of time click fest above all else. I even think it would be great for the server to occasionally do a fully cooperative ring war. It's a unique event that is actually enjoyable and I see no reason why we couldn't, on occasion, enjoy it together. But click fests? That blame is squarely on the shoulders of Riot.
You may be right, like I said I don't hold them blameless. They are as greedy and as self interested as anyone, which isn't even necessarily a bad thing in a competitive environment. Flip side: they are at least pretty clear about what their issue with the prior agreement was, and why they backed out of it. My contracts professor used to say that "everything is a drafting problem," and I think that applies to why the last agreement broke down - there were some ambiguities that could be tightened up with another set of terms.
All we have from you guys is the assertion you're for an agreement, but no concrete terms on which to discuss. Really though, ring war should be its thread.

Just so you're aware, the less toxic guild (Riot) you've been going on about is the singular entity that is preventing this. Freedom and AG both support some form of rotation (competitive rotation would be fun, but willing to look into anything). Riot is the reason the most recent agreement was dissolved.
ahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahaha
AG/F was the only entity holding up a rotation proposal by Riot that would give all the casual guilds a shot at every single raid mob on a regular basis. Instead you lobby the GMs into turning every single raid target in the game into a Mario Kart race, which the casual guilds have still yet to participate in, in order to monopolize that content (until Riot comes in with prepared racers, Calm your Tittes)

sure, no reason to push Mario Kart though, can easily make it an actual Everquest encounter, where you kill it in its lair, like Zlandi or whatever. Mario Kart has been, has always been, the dumbest way to contest anything on this server. You could also just make it that the Cothee has to zone in on spawn before COTH.
The only real answer to anything in p99 in 2020, almost 2021 is rotation. A very generous rotation, that still allowed a lot of competition, was put out there, and somehow vetoed by two guilds, that really should be considered one, since Freedom has essentially never killed any mobs on their own.

Actually, if you knew anything, my counter was to remove the ridiculously high number of in Riots "rotation" proposal. Something like 3 or 5 for all mobs. So, Riot is the only guild holding you back from getting 12+ of any and every mob per year.

When it was suggested it be brought more into balance. Riot backed out and began accusing AG/F of torpedoing the deal because "they refused it". But, it was a bullshit deal, that was not at all fair.

Just to make sure we're all talking about the same thing there, I understood the Riot proposal to be:
Each MOB assigned is a value, and once that number of spawn cycles had passed, anyone that had killed the MOB during the relevant time frame would be barred from the mob for a cycle. So, for example, if a mob was a (4), then weeks 1-4, it would be FFA, and in week 5 only guilds who had not killed during weeks 1-4 would be eligible for the kill.
I understand that the values for certain mobs was quite high (Vulak being a 12 for example). But, I fail to see how this would favor Riot specifically versus any other raiding guild. During the FFA weeks the mobs would be subject to the same competition as they are now.

Detoxx is being disingenuous. The Riot proposal was received well by everyone but Freedom, and Detoxx completely rejected it. The way he achieved this was by proposing something that obviously is not going to be accepted. It is like the Dems and GOP in congress right now. Everyone knows the economy needs another stimulus, but the Dems put forward a 3 trillion dollar partisan bill, and the GOP puts forward a 500 billion dollar partisan bill, both sides knowing that nothing is going to get passed, and while the people who need help suffer, they get to win political points with their base.
Detoxx never intended to negotiate a rotation. He only intended to kill it, while every casual guild+Riot was completely content with the Riot proposal.
The majority of raid mobs would be rotated somewhere between 4 and 8 weeks, with only a few high value mobs like Vulak being rotated a few weeks longer than that.
Mind this, Riot proposed this when it still dominated 95%+ of the content. Freedom (thanks to piggy backing off AG's hard work and numbers) are never going to go forward with any rotation proposal at this point. Guaranteed.

You did race in 2017 right? There’s less room for error in kael, tov being in front doesn’t mean you win infact usually don’t. Also If you are locked in to say mir as riot that’s like hour or so they can’t race . Casuals were winning back then.

Of course riot doesn’t, they would get less loot cause locked in and clearing inner dragon while smaller guilds would have chance when spawns overlap. It’s the best way to “compete” and casuals get loot. Put lockout like 3 hours so casuals can gather. They won’t tho, it’ll be some lame excuse even tho system worked and only was stopped cause alt tab jump which no longer works. Once spawns overlap riot will have to decide to race or wait which gives others a chance. They won’t lock a ltk with Vulak in window .
