Just wanted to reply to a couple of questions:
A few people have asked why if people want pixels they don't just compete for them?
My answer to this is that I used to but competitive raiding on this server is a cancer which is one of the primary reasons the GM's are attempted to force a compromise. If raiding involved simply logging on multiple chars or clearing to/engaging a target then sure, I would still do it. But it doesn't. It involves logging on and being abused by multiple members of an opposing raiding guild, then getting "accidentally" trained over and over, then getting FTE sniped. It's all bullshit and against the rules and as I understand it's the primary reason BDA doesn't "compete" as you like to call it.
The second isn't a questions but rather a clarification. A lot of the hardcores here like to throw around the stat "we offered you a 20/10 split but you want a 50/50 and we're unwilling to go that far". It's not really a 20/10 split when 20% of the population are getting 67% of the loot. It's also not a 50/50 split when 20% of the population are getting 50% of the loot, so saying that the divinity proposal isn't advantageous to FE/IB/TMO is a bit of a misinterpretation.
With all of these stats being thrown around there's one question I would like to ask: Which raid guild(s) have submitted the most raid petitions in the past year? Aren't they the ones that have driven the GM's to force a compromise as this is viewed as a waste of their time which could be better spent on fun GM events, catching cheaters or even Velious development?
