So what you love about classic Everquest is waiting for mobs that could spawn any time in a 96 hour window, even though that wasn't classic? Not trolling but could you please post your /played time?

Here's a little analogy that summarizes for me what is wrong with raiding on this server. Imagine you have a machine that dispenses cupcakes. Every week it dispenses 12 cupcakes, 1 cupcake at a time, at random times in a 96 hour window. Whoever touches a cupcake first gets the rights to eat it.
Now let's say you have two groups of 50+ people wanting cupcakes, and consistently getting the cupcakes less than a minute after they leave the cupcake-dispenser. Because only one cupcake at a time comes out of the machine, it's very easy for these people to monopolize all the cupcakes.
Other people try to get cupcakes, but these two groups stand really close to the machine and make it pretty much impossible to grab a cupcake as it comes out. Also, they're really condescending to anyone who doesn't get a lot of cupcakes, and berate them constantly for being unskilled, so they're not much fun to be around.
If you were a smaller group of ~20 people, wouldn't you get discouraged after a while?
Wouldn't you prefer a machine that dispenses all 12 cupcakes at once?
Wouldn't you prefer to not have to wait 4 days staring at the cupcake dispenser just for a chance at one single cupcake?

I think 1 cupcake over 4 days is fine. Moderation man, are you trying to give everyone type-2 diabetes?
