BTW, EQ live is in its 15th year and currently has 17 servers + a beta and a test server. They abandoned competition based raiding in year 4 with expansion 6 of 20. Clearly they found that alienating large bases of their population was not fun for the players... Doing nothing doesn't keep people playing the same game for 15 years. Also, More than 50% of p99 agrees that the level of 'competitive raiding' here sucks giant donkey dicks. According to you, it is clear that half of the people trying to have fun don't know what fun is...

Additionally, the raid content in EQ got progressively harder with the addition of scripted events and triggered sequences. The first few expansions were, by and large, tank and spank raid encounters. Many raid encounters further down the line are MUCH more difficult to execute. While the pvp competition was reduced the pve competition blossomed.

Finally, competitive gaming is currently at its peak. The amount of people playing PvP games has never been higher. I don't know how you can dumb down PvP games because you are playing against people, and there is always a winner/loser. My suggestion is that if you want to play a PvE game where you are secretly PvPing by racing, go play Forza or NFS...
Are you all females or something? Jesus christ. Writing me a god damn story book about what again?

1. The "do nothing" plan doesn't work because there's crybabies like you who think they're entitled to a spawn in an emulated video game, rather than just accepting EQ for what it is and always has been, thereby also inadvertently pissing off the GMs by complaining about what's right and wrong on a server that you don't own.

2. Thanks for telling me about raiding.

3. Thanks for missing my point of competition entirely. Were we talking about PVP or gathering a mass quick enough and organized enough to sweep most of the mobs in the game?

Cool
