There is no solution.

BDA has neither the interest or ability to compete for raid mobs. That is a simple fact. While BDA may be numerically similar to TMO at a given time, the difference is only a fraction of the guild are raiders, a much smaller percentage are 60. Moreover due to the rolling spawn window situation, TMO has the capacity to camp out entire raid forces at multiple mobs near the end of window and play alts or whatever. I'm not complaining about these things... its ofcourse the best way to guarantee winning them. But calling it "competition" is a laughable misnomer. Its like saying "BDA you get this stick, now go fight TMO's sherman tank." Oh look the competition is over and TMO won. BDA gets mobs if its in window during prime time and we sock them for a few hours and get lucky. The other 99.7% of the time TMO gets them.

That being said, the truly surprising comments on this thread are from the GMs, who essentially have said we don't give a fuck about how this situation impacts the server. Rotations will never work in reality, it requires too much give on TMO's end and there is simply no reason for them to give away loot when they are a guild founded on loot acquisition. I don't expect TMO to act in any way other than their own self interest, even if it is detrimental to the server because this is human nature. But the staff should be somewhat more far-seeing than this and attempt some sort of a compromised solution.

Essentially as long as Sirken has decreed that this archaic and retarded concept of the first person on the aggro list has loot rights the raid scene will continue to be a shitstormy mess.
