Oh totally. I think the reason that there is so much animosity is that there's a lot of competition that "means" more than it should. When Awakened was on their 14+ day ban, I was sitting in ToV entrance watching Aftermath pulling things as they popped the first week. They were not sure that Eashan and a few others would stay untouched, so the first of the two pops during the ban, they just sat there pulling them.

I asked one of their monks why they were doing that since we told them we didn't want to compete on those. The monk said "I'm bored otherwise. To be honest I foresee this as about to be a very dull two weeks." He went on to say how the ones who really deserve pixels have them at this point and that he doesn't really play the game for the pixels anymore, just the competition.

However, during that 14 day period we were also able to work out a situation that on mobs we were FFA (yeah we divvied some big ticket items up so everyone left happy) we would respect First in Force for a single attempt and no one would stall that out. No need for mindless rules, just be adults. We both respected that.



TL;DR: Two mega guilds built on competition will always dictate that the server needs to compete that way. Possibly neither of them is really a tool by themselves?

Holy shit dude you just wrote a book in RnF. Get a fucking life.
