When I was in BDA there was a class type raid system. 1 week was non competitive guilds that would work off a list for mobs (this did cause like a million alt guilds and made list long). Then next week would be guilds that would compete for Targets...can we just do that again?

That way people can still race. Maybe give C guilds two weeks or something so they still get more mobs and stay content, and the people who don't want to track or compete for spawns can still raid sometimes too?

I'm not explaining this right but some kinda competitive and casual rotation so all can have fun in end game /nod.

I sure picked a good time to try green, blue seems stressful now lol :p

Just search the forums for all the old threads on this crap, its all been hashed out before 6 years ago, TLDR: we need a system of organised time delayed racing for lockouts. AKA like golems now, but with old 1hr lockout.

I agree with this
Would like for rotations for a week to keep things calm then another week of just contesting
Sounds like a good system! =D

This won't stop the petitions for petty things. We will still need to change the raid rules.

Guilds who want "competition" self-identify and get moved to Red. Now they will have all sorts of "challenge" and true tests of "skill"... everything they ever wanted!@#

The rest can stay and share raid encounters in a rotation, work together to kill, etc. in peaceful harmony.

Solved.

Agreed, make the Red server the "FFA competitive raiding" server with one time transfer of toons from blue, enforce a rotation system for the people remaining on blue.

I find people talking about the joy of "competition" on P99 hilarious, its like Amazon talking about how important competition is as a PR move since they can easily crush any "competition" with their massive warchest.

I don't see a downside to instancing

the other thing i suggested in the UN, is you rotate everything, self identifying "competitive" guilds could share their picks and compete for them however they decide. AG/F get 5 picks Riot gets 5 picks, you have a 10 pick pool to nerd out on and keep score.

Because everything else about this server is classic?

TMO tried this back when GMs blew up their guild and introduced C/R/FFA. They failed miserably, because it never was about competition.
