I played on live in the "Classic" Era. I was Casual Scum and I was raider. I've never seen anything like this. There wasn't all this poopsocking. Did we park a ranger in a zone to check for spawns? Sure. Usually when someone needed an epic piece, LOOOOOONG after what is considered Classic. On Tribunal, I remember a dragon rotation, so quit whining and bitching that it's not classic. How many people here actually played in 1999-2000? I wonder how many of the people screaming that this or that isn't classic were even around to know what is or isn't classic?
On live you had the guilds full of uneployed basement dwellers, raiding 5-7 nights a week, you had the guild like the ones I raided in that raided 3 nights a week, and you had the casual scum. We didn't call them casual scum. They were just the people that didn't give a shit. They enjoyed the game at the solo or group level and it's social aspect. They weren't here to win. If you wanted your epic, you joined a raiding guild. You didn't join the only guild that could raid your epic loots, you joined A raiding guild. because most of the raiders could handle it. I haven't been on P99 terribly long, but I've only seen one bard epic. How many different guilds have killed trak in the last 6 months?
You dont want every raid mob on a rotation? Put only the epic raid mobs on one.
