I don't like the tier1/tier2/FFA rotation, a FFA target is tantamount to giving the mob directly to TMO/FE. We've all agreed that VP is the true endgame so we've all agreed to keep VP out of almost all discussions. Walling off mobs like VS and Inny from the casual guilds isn't fair to the casual guilds, they can be easily killed with two groups, they're special because they drop nice loot, not because they are hard to kill which seems to be a common argument as well (see doraf's posts in the raid forum)

unfortunately how hard a mob isn't doesn't matter to how much people will want to kill it. Gore is a fairly hard mob, but I think most people could care less to kill it, since most of Gore's loot drops off of other mobs, and Gore isn't an epic roadblock for any class. While VS might be easy, VS almost always drops great loot (trade-able, and loot for every class). Silverwing, on the other hand, will most likely drop nothing of any value. However he can drop a few very unique and desirable items. The only reason the server is happy to leave SW to 100% ffa is that he is in a limited access zone.
this can be expanded to so many other mobs. Inny is desirable because many people have a Mage and mage epic loot is rare, as is the necro focus item. While Fay is a druid epic roadblock, since the pod became 100% drop (which was my doing, high end raiders actually try to help the server, you're welcome), its fairly common, so there isn't any huge desire for anyone to kill fay over and over.
