So let me say three things.

First, it is super super easy to get trains in the planes. The aggro radii of the mobs are huge, and then they chain. The reality is no one can really know who trained who without spending a lot of time looking at logs. Remember when you are racing you are doing your best not to clear all this trash but instead get it out of the way temporarily somehow, and that by definition is going to lead to a lot of mobs running around aggro. I don't think TMO does too many intentional trains, but in my experience they don't care about training other guilds either. They just do their thing.

Second, Fisch, racing to mobs is actually kinda fun, although it's not some sort of magical thing that suddenly makes EQ 10x funner to play. What is not fun is batphoning/poopsocking/being on call for 24/7. I find it hilarious that Zeelot says he decided to run IB off the server, succeeded in this, and now TMO is whining that they have no one to poopsock against. The whole thing boggles the mind. Again, 90% of this server is here for a little nostalgia, not to prove our . . . manhood? craziness? by spending hundreds of hours on the raid scene. Furthermore there may be enough crazy players within BDA/Taken/VD/Acyrid to form an uberguild but they are split throughout the four guilds. Again, if you guys want legit competition, you need to be tearing up Rogean's IRC with requests for linked repops at a time known in advance.

Third, I know that TMO got a more or less clean sweep today. I think a lot of it is just tha the smaller guilds need a little practice and such. When I started playing for VD in the fall I did a ton of dumb shit, after the first month or two I basically knew what I had to do. After a few months of simultaneous repops TMO is not going to be getting clean sweeps. Which is why yall are not starting 20 threads requesting this.

You are wrong everyone in tmo would love repops...that's a lot more phara dar's
