I've witnessed the Gloradin click-fest a few times now, and I just think it's really unfair to say that everyone who's doing it is being an "asshat".

A lot of the people there competing for it are really kind, selfless players, some of which I've had really great grouping or raiding experiences with. They're not there to screw people over. They're there to compete for the 8th ring in the only way that they can - by being the first person to turn in the Marching Orders to Gloradin.

It's not like some warrior from Omni, or some monk from Divinity, or what have you, can simply just chime in ten minutes before the spawn and be like, "Hey, guys? Can't we work something out here?" I mean, they can, but do you really think every single person there is going to just drop it and go along with some alternative plan?

I am all for working things out and learning to play nice, but look at how these things have been handled by players and staff alike historically - look at things like Eldreth and Ragefire. I just think saying people are "asshats" because they're participating in a click-fest is a really lazy way of assessing and dealing with the situation, and I hope the rest of the P99 staff doesn't share this opinion.
