Single accounts and target specific suspensions need to eventually increase to guildwide raid suspensions. A single person can take one for the team and lose an account and it does not affect anything because of the accounts that most people have stacked up. This isn't a classic issue because back then Jeremy wasn't going to pay for 8 accounts, here he can have as many as he wants and park them wherever he wants. Losing one account is not an effective deterrent, the reward of loot outweighs the risk of losing one person from the zerg. Even losing a single shot at a mob isn't enough. It needs to scale up to losing the mob for month and then to full on guild suspensions.

1.) I have no problem with this. If there's something f*cked up about a whole raid and we cost someone else something intentionally, sure, suspend us from that mob for a week or all mobs if it's bad enough. There's a precedent out there for that, it has happened for various reasons in the past. I think it's up to the GMs to decide where that line in the sand is and make sure everyone is clear on it, but you also can't always punish everyone for one person's behavior.
Last nights Vox was truly accidental and a cockup. We rushed, we lost, then you went in and we stood back and watched. GG.
2.) I appreciate your desire to say Zerg and peg TMO as some big machine. I've been around a long time and we do have a lot of members, but we also do a lot with a few. I've killed numerious VP dragons with 18-20 people, which is far from Zerg. We have a lot of toons and a lot of alts, but yeah, I don't think defamatory verbiage helps the conversation. There's a lot of good people here.
3.) As with previous comments, FRAPs everything and let the GMs do their honest best to help guide and prevent cheaters, sploiters etc. They do their best but can't be everywhere. I can't tell you the number of times I've been FD in a zone and been blamed for trains on Flippie when I haven't even moved. Shit happens and I use FRAPs as a defensive tool more than an offensive tool these days because people always assume the worst.
To the topic of the thread: ultimately, I believe there's a lot of people at the top with no expanding content (at this point) and Velious would help. I also believe that having a random simulated repop on some day every two weeks would be awesome. TMO can't be everywhere at once and you see the most "distribution of wealth" on days when there is a repop. Plus, then there's NO tracking for like 5 days, how f*cking sweet is that?!
Just don't make it every Tuesday, make it a random day so different player bases can experience it and 99% of all the nonsense goes away. (IMHO)
