I don't believe in training cokcblocking or poopsocking.
I believe in mobilizing for raid targets after they spawn.. which is what TMO does... we do not set 15 people on spawns and wait for them..
Not sure who you are referring to but ALOT of servers including most importanlt Veeshan was COMPETITION For raid mobs..
Sounds like you started playing EQ after LDON and instancing came out.. Im not trying to flame you here im just saying this:
Everyone plays the game different.. we arent BREAKING the RULES playing the way we play.. we just all played competitively in classic and for you to tell me my way is wrong is just as stupid as me calling your playstyle wrong(which i have never done)...
best of luck to you and your playstyle.. mine will NOT change.

I'm not one to blame TMO for all the server's woes, but you totally missed the point of Daimadoshi's post. Competition and mobilizing is great but it shouldn't turn into a full time job. Last night there was competition, because every mob respawned at once when the server came back up. We all had advance notice of when the patch was happening, and could therefore get an idea of when it would be finished. Normally when mobs can pop at any time in their insane 96 hour windows, there isn't "competition" in any meaningful sense, because to compete requires spending markedly more time than most casual players have (and also more time than they would have had to spend in classic). I'm not saying rotations are the answer, but rather that casual players WANT to compete, they just can't because the current ruleset encourages anti-competitive behaviour (like poopsocking). If you think it's normal that casual raid guilds get almost no mobs at all on a given week, then you didn't play classic. If you don't think it's normal, then you concede that at least some of what I'm saying has to be right, and that the barriers to competition on this server are unreasonable.
Just to reiterate, I don't think TMO is the evil one here. You guys offered casual guilds free mobs (Gore, Sev, Tal) when you didn't have to and we had some fun times with that. When your suspension is lifted you should consider honouring at least some of Sanluen's post for the benefit of the server.
