I have a feeling you're not the only one with that thought. The problem is, eventually one of you will have to concede the race to a target. Someone has to physically lose at some point, and the reaction/aftermath from that loss would drive future sentiment.

As a child all through out high school and into college I played in some sort of athletic league usually wrestling. (no homo)
When ever we had a meet we tried our hardest to win and/when we lost I never got upset at the person who beat me. Keep in mind this is not sitting at a computer hitting buttons this is some 7 foot mongoloid manhandling you on the mat in front of your girlfriend, and if I ever acted like a sore loser both my father and coach would kick my ass.
Now i'm not saying I don't get mad when we lose Trak and i definitely will call out the reasons why we lost such an encounter but I would never seriously rage at another guild and deny them a rezz or a drag during a CR unless the mob is still in contention.
You don't see professional athletes rage at other teams after games and that how i would like to see this server behave.
Now you might ask "but Tiggles you talk the most trash out of anyone in your guild" And I would agree with you, but none of it is with venom I enjoy the competition and what I enjoy more is eliciting a reaction out of people who think we are sworn enemies.
I did an experiment the other day when I got my sky haste belt.
I linked it to Hasbinbad and called him a scrub and he replied in the same joking manner and when he got his via the GM event I called it Charity Haste. He knew i was ribbing him on and we had a funny back and fourth conversation.
I linked it to Shiftin and he blew up tells/ooc flaming me linking items from his guild and explaining how he passed on that belt 8 months ago and why a RBG is better and i'm a scrub etc etc to the point where the GM who was hidden in the zone mentioned something to me.
I would expect Hasbinbad to drag my corpse if needed but Shiftin would probably drag it under trak if given the chance.
Both guilds have their Hasbinbads and their Shiftins
Who are YOU?
