Swish, agree or disagree: a spot in a rotation should only be held by a raid force capable of beating the target.
As for what BDA wants, I have never heard it ask for a rotation now. BDA would work with any agreement the players make if it is fair. Racing, rotation, lockouts whatever. What BDA no longer has the patience for is sitting a dozen people for FTE and more for tracking for sixteen hours where one second distraction means all that time was wasted, over and over. Its neither fair nor sane to ask members to do this for pixels, especially for the smallest of the five raiding groups. If that is what Sirken thinks is reasonable effort for elf pixels then the best option is simy not to play until someone with for of a clue becomes GM. Over a hundred nearly two hundred man-hours for a single mob? The amount a normal person works in an entire month? Only Sirken and the drooling neckbeards of AM could think that is even remotely reasonable.
As for the white knight here, the important thing is that YOU believe it. Maybe Maner will sleep with you once you prove your love, right? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] |
While long variance and making life sacrifices for pixels is ridiculous, history shows us that even if the casual guilds work something out... within that a certain guild will probably tow the line for a while before thinking "actually, we can get more for ourselves now that this has been set up".
So in essence, give the dog a bone and it won't share for longer than necessary.
Of course the guild in question should be able to take down the target, but what the server has no consideration for is patience, to let these guilds learn encounters in order to beat them.
That's where Moonlight Crusaders and Supremacy met their end. BDA decide that casual guilds who can't already do the content aren't worth keeping on the rotation...and therefore you get a stale raid scene with the same old same old guilds (with their ex-MC/Supremacy apps), same old raid leaders getting the same old pixels.
What would be good for the longevity of the raid scene on blue is letting the leveling guilds who want to raid.... raid.
You sadly can't trust the top end of the casual guilds not to dick on smaller "true" casual guilds, and that's why a rotation won't work.
