The only thing worth adding is how TMO went from not being able to break fear and wiping to Draco despite using Ivandyrs Hoops to the top guild. They merged with the former #2 raiding guild (Fusion/Dark Ascension etc) and began to challenge the #1 guild (Transatlantic Rampage/Inglourious Basterds etc) on Trakanon so that they could get keys to VP before it opened since it was delayed about 8 months on this server. More than half a year of mostly equal competition, both guilds were sitting on a 1 week raid suspension handed down by former GM Amelinda.
In the middle of that suspension, without notifying anybody from any other guilds, Amelinda secretly lifted TMO's raid suspension and this enraged the other guild at the time (renamed Inglourious Basterds again by this point) to stop playing on the server.
It was later revealed that a member of TMO (quickfingers aka tiggle) was Amelinda's girlfriend, and it was also revealed that Amelinda had taken bribes from members of the community that were selling things for USD.
In threads such as this TMO will typically try to stand behind their reason of "we had to play by these rules to achieve what we did, and so should you" but will conveniently leave out details such as how they came into being the undisputed #1 guild on the server. Since then they've only grown stronger.
Disregarding all logic for why the current non-classic raid scene inside of VP should be made better and ignoring all arguments for it (because the scene currently favors them and only them).
Just thought that may be worth mentioning as to why the majority of players hate the current raid scene, think it unfair, and believe a change to a more-classic and PVE friendly end-game would be beneficial and the best route.

Amelinda lifted our suspension early because of me and I even told a few IB members that it was going to happen, they didn't believe me. We were suspended because VD tried to KS our inny and put themselves on the aggro list of a train away. Inny died, dropped two eyes, i snagged one and called for anyone else in the group to snag the other eye. Reason? Because the week before we had someone ninja loot and delete an epic piece off CT that wasn't in our guild.
VD chose to park their raid on ours, chose to engage our Inny and add themselves to the aggro list of a train, and chose to hang out on his corpse. Their fraps was so full of propaganda (I had one of their members give me the link) and I showed Amelinda where they knew it was our pull and a raid leader/officer told them to engage.
