You admit to the fact that you don't like the variance and expect skill in the form of a mob kill when it's been stressed over and over again that there are MULTIPLE raid guilds on this server, way more than live, that have all the information to engage a target, diminishing that concept.
You claim skill doesn't come from rushing your opponents from all corners of the world in attempts to buff up, setup up a pull spot, and engage the mob with haste without wiping.
To me, you are shooting blanks, bud. FTE exists in the current state. You want more of a dice roll, because there are multiple guilds willing to go to great lengths to beat you out on loot even in your ruleset.

aadill, not only have you been completely wrong before (a la poopsock) but you're incredibly wrong again. Your notion of raiding here isn't everquest. It's unnecessary p99 behavior. You've raped raiding so hard that if you were to take a time machine back to your original EQ server you wouldn't know what they hell they were doing. you'd point and laugh and call them pussies because they had free time on their hands and planned their raids a week in advance.
What the fuck is wrong with you? "There are many raid guilds on this server" isn't a viable reason to keep a massive fucking window. That's an excuse that says: I like the way my assembly-line of a guild has operated since early last year and I don't like the idea of competition from various angles by various guilds in the spirit of classic. I'm not shitting on competition. I don't want a rotation, i don't want poopsocking, but let's at least open your eyes and see that the raiding scene here is the furthest thing from the classic experience as there is on this server, and it has nothing to do with how many guilds there are that can engage and drop a target.
As I've said before, if it's not classic it's not my job to explain why something that IS classic should be put in, but rather why something that ISNT classic is left in. If you want the answer for two-boxing you're welcomed to use the search feature, as i'm sure there are already half a billion threads and explanations on that one.
