I agree 100%... That having been said.. I don't believe for a second that TMO is or was responsible for the miserable feel of the server prior to the last couple days..
What shitted up the server was the mechanics, and the culture.. of the high-end raiding game... and that existed long before TMO became the top raid-guild. TMO simply excelled within the culture that was presented to them.
It is naïve to say that TMO is just a bunch of pricks... I doubt that there are many long-time players that don't have a friend or two.. or more... in TMO...
It's very easy to point fingers, and pass judgement... but a lot of the lesser guilds were guilty of doing the very things that they deemed diabolical TMO tactics... perhaps in a smaller venue..
<Takes a breath>
So.. What I'm trying to say is... Perhaps it wasn't the TMO debacle of recent days that improved the server... maybe its just that the TMO debacle forced the GM's... the big guilds... and the population at-large.. .. to take a look at wtf we are all doing here..

Wrong wrong wrong. TMO was the exact reason for the poor raid scene on P99 and they were the direct result of all the major issues today. As stated by the staff, "It continues to be an aggravating realization among CSR staff that 10% of the server population causes 90% of the problems. We are all for competition, but it needs to be fair competition. We are also all here for the same thing, to experience classic Everquest. The same guild monopolizing raid content for 2 years that they might not even need anymore is ridiculous, just to block other guilds from the chance of gearing up to take on the same end game content."
That said I find it hard to believe a Taken member would look so kindly toward TMO, when you guys got shit on many times by TMO and IB/FE for that matter because IB/FE were all being dicks indirectly because of TMO shenanigans.
TMO monopolizes raid content end of story. You can't defend that or them. If you do then I feel bad for you as a member of Taken guild.
