Right. There was no competition. There was one guild, and then the rest. Vp on live (and I’d really love to hear input from somebody who did it in era on live) was probably dominated by one guild on 90% of the servers. I guanrintee you a ST raid is a lot more cooperative than in era raiding guilds.
A lot of that stuff came down to knowledge, and numbers. My memories of playing kunark on live was a bunch of tight knit community esque guilds, such as the one I was in from the beginning to end, and we rarely raided. I remember doing vindi while Luclin was out.. and I mean LATE luclin. And I only remember one raising guild from my server. Pak Cafan? I think..?
Also which players from rampage woke the sleeper on eq mac and are now ST? Honestly this is the first time I heard this.
The other point I make is that if EverQuest wasn’t supposed to be competitive, it’s not a burden to its legacy that it became that way. It’s actually kind of bonkers, and a complete ode to the games greatness, that it DID become competitive over 20 years after it went live.
People complain about raiding on this server, and I counter that it’s the most thrilling dragon raiding available on the internet.
If your guild isn’t strong enough, find other likeminded guilds to team up with.
Maybe try to come to an agreement? If coth racing isn’t doing it, maybe try foot races with lockouts. That will give you a decent chance.
ST is banned because phatez acted like a dick. If I had to guess, he’s losing his shit because he feels like the GMs are turning their back on the raid scene because the casuals finally cried enough to get loot. He needs to chill, but I don’t completely disagree with him. There’s better ways to go about this though.
Getting 1 trak for free isn’t going to change anything. Your free trakanon today won’t help you kill LTK tomorrow.

p99 wasnt recreated so one guild can dominate a server. It was created so people can enjoy the experience of the original content. 2nd many servers had guilds that came to agreements to rotate content and took turns raiding the planes etc. to pretend like only the most populous guild on the server has the right to enjoy the end game content is dumb. when one guild creates an environment where 75 percent of the people playing are shat on goes directly against why p99 was created.
