I normally don't get my feathers rankled about stuff, but hey...you wanna troll, I'll bite.

Our guild was excited about the chance to get Vox. We maintained a camp there because we wanted a shot at it. When the call went out for Vox...we didn't have near that many people on.

BUT if there were that many that showed up on a Sunday night when most of us have to work...then I am proud of my guild. I'm proud that people care enough to take the time to log in and be a part of what we're doing.

See...this is where you have a misconception about Divinity.

We are not badass. We don't care if people think we're uber or not. We are not a hardcore raiding guild. We're a casual raiding guild.

If people got missed in the pics, that's sad...because everyone who took part was happy, and wanted to be in on the celebration.

It's nice to note that several people were actually wanting to pass on the loot and give it to other members.

You see, that's how we roll. If we have 15 or 100 on future raid mobs, well...that's going to be because 15 or 100 people care enough to be there and play with us.

We knew when we started the Vox camp that some people were not going to like it if we got her, and well...at least one person on this thread so far has proven us right.

But...whoever you are...we love you, too.

I think they did /who divinity chic. I'm pretty sure we had 38 or close to it.

I was able to count 35 in the pic. I think 2 or 3 people were running late and may not have made it all the way to Vox but I'm not sure.

That said, the zerg statement doesn't really hold water. We lost a couple of enchanters early (overzealous mana sieve or tash aggro I assume) and a mage I think due to the TT add/train. It's not like we went in with 38 and had 5 left by the time the fight was over.

And we had 38 show up so what were we supposed to do? Tell some to log off so we could get a bigger epeen?

It was a guild-first kill and people were excited. A lot of people wanted to be there. Simple as that. Last I checked, we had 36 (2 came very late I think?) and IB had 31. So what? Had we failed, and IB killed her, are they a zerg too? We had 30 minutes to assemble and get our first shot a Vox, so people showed up to be a part of it.

Nice troll though, It's amazing that people can find something negative in any situation.

This.

Calling it a zerg because of the number of players that showed up is just ridiculous. Call it a zerg, rather, based on the number of players who died.

Handful of deaths on an AOE dragon != zerg.

:D

Look, All Clayton was pointing out was that there WAS 38 at the kill. There's nothing to be ashamed on downing Vox with 38, but the fact is some of your guildies tried to deny this (by either not knowing the facts or out of pride). That being said it's totally understandable since it would be even more retarded to number cap yourselves for the sake of proving something.

I'm very happy that you guys managed to down her, just unhappy as to how you got to attempt her. Where is the competitive spirit of racing to a mob? I'd hate to toss mud again in Trans's direction but this whole "if we can't race 'em camp 'em" mentality is just extremely lame.

After the whole rotation fiasco, rules were established to "allow" competitive racing. Players however are trying to bend this rule by flatly camping a boss. This is the part where I lose all respect to any camping raiding guilds. I mean why bother with the first to mobilize AFTER a boss spawns rule if your going to be sitting there WITH a 72 HOUR WINDOW?

All that camping for manastone wasn't enough? Is this the next evolution? Let's get random 15 players to sit for a cloak of flames? Isn't it easier and more efficient to setup a tracking rotation and allow the rest of your guildies to go on their lives and be summoned when needed? This is where it baffles me when people accuse us of being "too" hardcore. Seriously, I may be dedicated enough to log on when texted (while not being busy in RL) but to sit there online and willling to wait 72 hours for a Dragon to pop is a whole new level of "hardcore".

If responding to a call of logging on is half retarded then camping a boss is fully retarded. I'm dying to get out of this limited content cluster fuck, Sky will see to that more or less until Kunark comes out. So no I'm not all butt hurt about Div getting Vox, losing bosses to competing guild was a reality waiting to happen. It's just the manner of how we lost is what bothers me and how the future raiding guild will evolve.

This btw isn't an "IB" only issue but something all raiding guilds need to consider. Is mass zerg recruiting and having 15 players in all boss zones 24/7 the next step in raid evolution? Are we going to be doing camp check for bosses in OOC? You might think this is an exaggeration but I can see how all this could unfold within the next 3months or so. My stance is to discourage camping, having boss mobs being reduced to a camp check just doesn't seem right in so many levels. I don't have answers to 'fix' this issue, the only thing I can think of is to REALLY increase the time variance to such a retarded extent that camping would not be viable (that would mean less bosses for the whole server).

So don't think of this post as being all bitter over losing a dragon. I'm happy for Divinity (those that know me online know I'm a reasonable guy). The zerg doesn't bother me, the camp certainly does. I've said my piece so troll away.

2.) We were first in zone with 15 at the previously agreed upon staging ground.

3.) You still ended up calling us a zerg force at the end of your thread. Nice...

4.) The reason we were there en-mass had to do with a an issue that does not pertain to anyone outside of the two guilds involved and the GMs.

5.) Also, I seem to recall another guild hanging out in Permafrost for an extremely long time the last time she was due to spawn and you didn't seem to have a problem with it then.

6.) We did everything according to the rules set up for the server and prior agreements that were made between guilds. If you have any issues, take it up with the guild leaders that made the agreements or the GMs.

I'm very happy that you guys managed to down her, just unhappy as to how you got to attempt her.

I knew this would come up sooner or later, so I'll address it without flaming or trolling.

The truth is, we have been trying to race you guys (All guilds really, but in this case IB in particular) for Vox/Naggy and gods. We have trackers and alts camped at spawns like I'd assume most guilds do. The problem was, me playing my main and logging over to check my tracker alt every hour or half hour was not good enough. IB, along with other guilds too, have trackers and groups camped at the raid spawn 24/7. These guilds know when dragons and gods spawn litterally the second they spawn, and are dead within 30 minutes or so.

We were not able/willing to compete with this.

So instead, we decided after a good Hate clear that we would head to Perma and camp everyone's main there so we could all log in once we found out Vox had spawned. That's when we realized IB saw us doing this, and came to Perma with their own force. We then decided we will suck it up and and win this race to Vox. We had never killed her before, and we were there before IB, so we weren't going to give it away. Last week, we had the first attempt on Draco and when we engaged, the zone lagged and we all died without getting a fair shot. Call it bitter, but we were unhappy and didn't want to lose out on our chance to kill another boss.

I'm the last person that wants to sit around and camp a raid boss that might spawn 3 days from now. I (we) did it this time as an exception because we really, really wanted to kill her. That's all.

Feel free to dispute or flame this post, I'm happy to address any issues anyone has with how Divinity does it's thing. Just know this is not something we are planning on doing for every boss. I considered this very much the exception and not the rule.

1. Why does this need to be in R&F? I thought my post was fairly civil...

2. Look, the 15 itself can be debated. Old prep area, new prep area etc.. you still need to be present AT the area. My post was not about debating who got where first but rather that you were willing to wait 72 hours with 15 people.

3. Ok perhaps that was unnecessary on my part. 38 for a kill IS a zerg however, it's not like I was lying.

4. Once again you seem to be getting all agitated over my zerg comment, this isn't about having a LOT of people at the kill but rather about people SITTING IN AN EMPTY ROOM. Please re-read my post.

5. When trans camped Nag, I raged on the forums about it. Not like I'm singing a new song here. So because I failed to post every time a guild goes full retard means I agreed camping was cool but it's not anymore?

6. I never said Divinity broke the rules, it is completely legitimate to sit in an empty room with 15 people 24/7 to get the first attempt on a boss. I was pointing out the fact that rotation was lifted for the spirit of competition but those rules are being circumvented by going full retard.

If it makes you feel any better, I will retract all zerg comments. Div killed vox with 4 people ok? Gratz... seriously it's NOT about the kill but HOW you got to kill. So if your going to debate my post at least try to refute why you think camping a boss is cool ok? Cause this zerg debate is getting old seriously.

It's cool dude, I just thought it was sort of hypocritical when it was IB that was camped in Perma for a much longer period of time than us last time she spawned. The difference being that we never killed before last night, and you guys have killed her... well let's just say a bunch of times.

Basically it's like Trimm said though. We just want a chance to hit all the content, right? We all have other things to do and nobody is planning on spending 3 days a week in a dragon lair staring at the walls. It was a Sunday afternoon, fun guild chat and good timing. I highly doubt we would still have had 15 in zone an hour later had she not spawned when she did; there were already a few people planning on logging off for the night.
And you guys would have had yet another Vox kill.

We cool?

This server cannot grow, and people will not stay, if raid content is sucked up by any one or two groups of people. Doesn't matter what the guild tag is. Guilds must come to agreement amongst themselves as to what is fair and what isn't... something that surely isn't being accomplished on P99.

Will there be more than one or two hardcore raiding guilds in the future? Yes. But that isn't the case right now. And what is the rest of the population to do while one or two guilds completely dominate the server because they attract people that can be summoned at any given time to a raid call? Make more alts? Forget that.

Like Trimm said, this was the exception to the rule for Divinity. It wasn't something that was even planned. Our 'camp" could have fallen apart at any given time.

However, things must change to allow more guilds to have access to current content. The Devs shouldn't be expected to babysit any of us. How this will all play out depends on guild leadership, and diplomacy.

On a personal aside...If my posts are read, I never said anything about how many people we had in Perma, other than there were less than 5 members missing in that picture Ab took at the beginning of this thread. With me counting 30-33 with my poor old eyesight, and another guildee counting 35 (god knows how) that would be about right. I'm still surprised -and proud - that there were as many people there as there was.

Wow.. just read all the posts here since last night. What Trimm said about people moving their mains from Hate to Perma after the raid is true. Our original plan was to have people camp their mains so it would be faster when she popped. Once we saw that IB's numbers were growing as ours were, we decided we would stick around and try to hold out for the dragon. Believe me we never planned to sit with a raid force til she spawned, it just happened in response to how things went.

I can promise you that we didnt keep people from being in the screenshot. Hell Divinity didnt even take that screenshot, Abacab did. Is he in on the conspiracy too Clayton? If people want to call us a zerg guild do you honestly think that means anything? If having 38 people there to have fun killing a dragon and only losing a couple chanters makes us a zerg guild then so be it. Clayton if you need to be impressed by fewer people downing Vox go solo her on live with an 85. Divinity didnt do all we could to kill Vox just to impress any of you, we killed her for the fun of it. We are playing a game here people.. you are supposed to have fun, thats the whole point. Yes I know there are going to be disagreements and drama is going to happen no matter what.. but seriously, dont forget to have fun playing eq or find that fun elsewhere.

Clayton, first who the hell are you? Are you the forums police? Oh noes, we must discover how there is a crime here because too many people had fun and Clayton weren't one of them. Dude, go push some kid off his bike... see if that makes you feel any better.

I personally love project 99, the people who made it and keep it running, a TON of the people who play on it and the whole idea of revisiting something I enjoyed 10 years ago. Yeah the drama I didnt miss but the fun of having a group of friends do something together is to me, the point of an MMO. Obviously guilds are going to have issues with each other from time to time.. but when people try to create huge drama out of normal issues you need to know that you arent helping, you are making things worse. Maybe some people dont understand this and feel everything they have issue with needs to be brought to the worlds attention... maybe some people needed more hugs from their mom.

Play the game, enjoy it the best you can. If thats impossible dont waste your time with it.. find something you can enjoy.

Everyone is making this into so much more of a big deal than it should be.

Nobody hates Divinity. You guys are cool, and it's awesome that you guys got a boss kill without breaking any rules. Let's just all go ahead and agree that Humerox (and only Humerox) made a very silly attempt to misrepresent the number of people who were/were not in the screenshot and at the raid force in general, and we can all go back to talking about how neat it is that Abacab tried to pickpocket a DRAGON that doesn't even have pockets.

What was Vox going to spend that money on anyways?

You imply a maximum of 29 people [25 people in the photo + maybe 4 outside] when it's well established that there were 38. Divinity, please let this guy tank Nagafen next time you guys get him, because his Ancient Defiant Pants on Fire have siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick fire resist on 'em.

Nobody said that you guys were incapable of downing Vox without such a large raid force. I'm glad everyone was excited enough for a kill that they all came out for it, but for some reason, either Humerox finds the number to be embarrassing or his old and bad eyes prevent him from counting.

I just wanted to thank Divinity for a chance to be a part of their guild.
Regardless of how many people we had there, we did an excellent job, worked as a team and all had fun doing it.
My experience with the guild so far has been mostly chatting and being in good company. ( which is priceless )
Now i finally got a chance to go raid with the guild and it was more fun than i could of imagined.

I also want to add that when i played live, i was a late bloomer around mid kurnark -- early velious times.
I really felt like i had missed out on classic content raids and such.
In fact i'll sadly admit i never played beyond a 52 war before i sold my accounts and only ever got to do a few small raids.

This ONE raid of Vox ( no matter how easy people say she is ) was so much fun and rewarding that i feel i have made up for all the classic raids i missed in the last 10 years! Even the feeling of missing out on MS and Rubi BP on this server is starting to melt away in light of "having a GOOD time"

Thank you Divinity for being a great guild with great people and accepting me as part of it.

Thank you to any and everyone else who supports us, or even was just nice enough to say grats. A few words go a long way.

Edit: Yes a few words go a long way, but PICTURES go even further! its not often i can say i TRULY laughed out loud at something online

Maybe late to this thread... but as many have said: you (in the plural form) just don't really understand what Divinity is about!

I've been with Divinity since I'm in the teens. That was so long ago I've watched so many passed by because of my play schedule (working at a hospital does that to you....) The guild chat is as laid back an atmosphere as you could ever have hoped for. The people? They're family to me. My GF plays the game, sitting at level 32, and people would run 4-5 zones to throw rezzes. I know they are probably not doing anything, but it still takes a crazy amount of dedication to make that commitment to run while most would've just AFKed. It's not as if she was asking either; it's just the fact that she mentioned about a group training her and 2-3 people are on their way....

We're not the type of raiding guild that really gets angry over petty things. It's a social guild that loves raiding as much as possible, and we take whoever would like to come in any way possible without sacrificing our position. I'm still sitting at level 47 after all this time, but they take me like a regular at EVERY raid that I could attend, no questions asked. The welcome you get when you say hi is unbelievable and the drama is being kept as low as possible. Sure, we've had people that left before, mainly due to the fact that we weren't in a position to raid back then, but I just don't think there's much more of a close-knitted atmosphere as you could find in Divinity!

I'm just glad to have been in Unrest at the right place, in the right group, at the right time. D4L!

Don't even know you guys but <3 for you ya. That's a true guild right there. Take care of your own and others around you. That's how I ran my guild in DAoC. The Dragon Lords. I played as a Armsman back then. I remember running a newbie clear down to do a quest from Camelot to the swamp. Then ran him back just cause I had love for the game and had time on my hands. The guy started asking me questions about my guild. So I told him a bit about us. He said do you have any of your officers on line right now? I think he fainted when he found out I was the GM and I just walked him around doing quests with him. Lol he wasn't even in my guild. /shrug that's good stuff there.
