Just as you know your guildmates a certain way, and leaders, so do the members of Transcendence. And you end up sticking up for your own, family first kind of thing. It is your responsibility to support your own, and I do not think anyone is wrong for being outraged, or upset over what happened. You buffer, represent, and express not only yours, but your guilds frustrations and feelings. He, as we feel a certain way about it, and by and large I think there has been little to no flaming, merely arguments over certain points, and morality vs legality arguments. The trolls are the ones trying to inflame this.
The spirit and intent of the rules is clear. When someone tries to muddy it up with technicalities or legalese, you don't need a degree to see they're probably in the wrong from the start with regards to the whole reason for the rules existing in the first place. The end doesn't justify the means, might doesn't make right, and legally right should never take precedence over morally right.
My stance remains the same as most... sitting under a mob's spawn point is just asshattery. It is complete and utter idiocy to be required to do that because people cannot act mature, polite, respectful, or courteous. If I am standing in line and someone tries to butt in line, they are getting put down. They had better be one baddass, or one huge mofo to stop me, I do not abide by that shit. And in essence, that is what happened. We were there first, you tried to butt in line, and that is not cool. It is socially unacceptable, and this is a social game. If you were standing in line, and someone did that to you, you would be like Hey wtf. That is what we are saying. Hey wtf.
Heck they had just gotten CT, and couldn't settle for that, HAD to have both. I am all down for competition, but when you are gaining an unfair advantage when it comes to knowing spawns to the minute, cry me a fucking river when someone gets there before you. This whole logging in a few minutes before CT spawns, or the instant Vox spawns, raid force buffed and ready is insane. Running into the temple when Inny was due.. not an hour earlier, within minutes. That is not fair competition. You want innoruuk? Let Remedy have CT and goto hate.
