Yea actually I know exactly what it means, which is why I used it in my post. When you make blanket statements like "only 3 FTE Disputes ever" the implication is that since there are so few, it must be a good rule. Choosing to jump to a simplistic conclusion based on limited data. When in fact, since apparently this has to be spelled out, there are no more FTE petitions because no one else on the server wants to reduce themselves to the shitbag level of TMO. It may be the easiest solution, and yes, I do mostly believe this was chosen because of its high level of simplicity to the server staff as well as irrefutable "absolute" solution to any situation. That does not make it a good solution.



I never said I know better than everyone, but your implication that I know nothing and you have already had every possible idea that I could ever have and dismiss me out of hand. All anyone not TMO in this thread has said is that FTE sucks, and every response you have is full of seething condescension and self-importance, like how dare these plebs question me?! Frankly I know you are an unpaid customer service rep.. but you do know that ultimately all your "power" here is bestowed in effort to help the server and encourage its growth and success. I don't think you can fix all the problems, however, the entire "not-TMO" population of the server thinks there needs to be some reform, and the staff and TMO forumtards are the only ones that argue against it. India, whoever the fuck that is, in a few responses here kinda implied that the "majority" was only applicable to "the raiding majority" in that case you could posture that TMO is like 90% of "the majority" and hence, this solution is a great one since they are fat happy loot babies. But by everyone else's standards it blows.

Honestly if you are going to say that you have no interest in bringing something more equitable than the current rule set to the server than you might as well take the gloves off and open up training and everything else and let a true competition begin. Everyone talks a good game about competition, let guerilla tactics enter the fray so the underdogs at least have a fighting chance of leveling the playing field. TMO has created a situation that makes competition nearly impossible and is supported by a rule system that perpetuates their grip on power and a staff that tells anyone that even asks about changing it to go fuck themselves.
It doesn't matter what system they put in TMO will still win, and you will still complain.

If you are talking equality. TMO gets kills equal to their effort. This is a very fair system you guys are just too lazy, and to dependent on hand outs.
