Not true. There are some people that "clock more mileage" and see nothing in return for their efforts. That is the REAL WORLD...this IS A FUCKING GAME. You are forced to deal with RL, people play Everquest for ENJOYMENT. That is possibly why you fail to grasp the reality of the problem.
Right so, why not just have a button that pumps out every loot in the game? I mean seriously, everyone is ENTITLED to get their ENJOYMENT. Why do we even bother raiding? Seriously we should just get whatever we want, when we want no?

Right on man..because Anarchy without any final authority seems to have worked well in the past. You are either to young or too stupid to understand the amount of drama/problems that would infect P1999.
I realize everyone's Live experience has been different on various server. I assure you however that there has been servers that managed just fine WITHOUT GM interference... You are either too stubborn or ignorant to base an opinion on something that hasn't even been tried yet on this community.

Are you half-asleep? EVERYONE makes it to 50 at some point. After that the only thing left is to RAID! People are not leveling up just to stand back and spectate the end-game content. They want to participate and be involved. Thus why you have guilds and social networks of players.
Right, cause on live you had 40 guilds competing for the mobs right? This may be a shock to you but there are people who play the game and still enjoy without raiding. Whether it's trade skilling or accumulating virtual wealth via farming. Not everything is about killing smelly dragons. Do you even realize why EQ died? Because it based its model catering to the smallest player base, the hardcore gamer. It pumped out expansion after expansion and introduce new bosses to kill to satisfy its raiders. When in reality the majority of the gamers (the casuals) only played EQ because it was the only game at the time (for an MMO). WoW came in to cater the casuals and look what happened, over 10million accounts compared to what now? I'll say 250K and be generous. Even if everyone on the server hits 50, you are NOT going to see 50 different raiding guilds. So yeah it will be a lot smaller than what your describing.

Seems to me that when the rotation was in place the only ones complaining was IB. Due to their GREED. The server was quite restive and having other guilds added to that rotation was sure to bring stability for a long time. While i did not agree with the execute of the rotation i felt that it offered stability. Something we do not have now.
Yeah, cause the other guilds wanting their shot at bosses is our greed as well. Fixed rotation (old system) is such a short sighted system it's not even funny. So what you get to kill 1 boss every 2months eventually? What about key mobs? Maybe a guild will get to see VP by the time we're halfway through Velious release then.. If everyone manned up and stopped crying and mobilized instead of this "campfest" there would be stability once again. As EVERY guild would have a shot at any boss.

Lets rephrase...IB wants to dominate the server and take everything for themselves. Trans does not want to spend all their time trying to dominate 10 year old content they want to just play the game and get along.
IB wants to compete and raid against other guilds... not like our MO is different than any other raiding guild here. No offense but that's not what you were saying back then, i find it funny that you keep going back to the 10 year old argument. If your not playing the raiding game then why bother giving your 2 cents?

You forget the fundamental reasons why p1999 was even created to start with. It was not created for IB it was created to relive the classic Everquest experience.
You forgot a fundamental reason as well, EQ Classic experience was about competition in the raiding game. Seriously, we had guilds cockblocking each other on key mobs to insure their dominance within their tier content. Do I think it's fair? Perhaps not but that's what the game was in Classic and that's how it should be here. We wouldn't even be having this discussion if there was more content at hand when guilds can move on to the next stage. Accuse us of greed the day you see IB killing a boss to prevent another guild from getting the boss (when we don't need it). We've moved on from Maestro, we'll move on from more as more stuff pops in.

You got this huge chip on your shoulder. That somehow Trans or the server is out to get you. The server population wants IB to see that a place that you work with one another is better served than by leaving up someone FD in PoH/PoF/Naggy Lair/Vox with MQ2 running to send out text notification when a boss spawns.
Wow seriously...this baseless accusation is just retarded. I couldn't believe the stupid shit Trans was saying about us back then (SEQ,MQ,Hacking,GM favoritism) but once people joined us they realized we're just a raiding guild. If you still have doubts ask your ex trans guildies that joined us at the end. It may be hard to believe but we're not the cheating sketchbags you think we are.

Just keep going with what your doing. I have seen the DA roster it is full of old Trans people. People that decided they wanted to fight it out instead of "going casual". I applaud it and i wish i had more time to help but i dont.
I'm sure you can help out by getting a tag and sitting AFK for days on end. It's not that much of a commitment.
