We had a nice smooth Dain kill over the weekend because Aftermath was forced to concede after snap pulling Dain, getting eaten by a train, thus turning the entire encounter into a disaster. We're playing different games. No one will admit that though.

No one will admit what? That A/A and the rest of the server have drastically different playstyles? That's been said hundreds of times on these forums.
It's the root cause of the issues with the raid scene. Hardcores don't want to give up mobs that they're willing to work hard for and casuals don't want to work as hard for the mobs that the hardcores don't want to give away. Casuals see it as over the top and hardcores see it as a meta game. Being better than the other guy.
So here we are, the new rules that don't fix the problem that the casual guilds set out hoping to see fixed. The only thing they do is increase the burnout factor by needing twice the amount of people to cover all of the bases. I guess that's a win for you guys.
No new rule set will ever fix the issue because the hardcore guilds will always find a way to play harder, inside of those rules, that you guys will (understandably) shake your heads in disbelief and stay away from for the most part.
Both sides think the other side needs to come closer to the other's playstyle but it will never happen. This game and this server is wide open for the taking. If there are players on this server willing to be gross and play EQ to its max then they can do that. Casuals think we're insane and they're right. Nice observation.
