As an aside, I've long been a proponent, within the internal TMO dialogue, that we should greatly expand the endangered species list to all targets on a rotating basis excluding Trak and Phara`Dar.

However, I've noticed that when outsiders raise the banner of indignation internal resistance to the idea increases dramatically. This is not to say that the server brings it upon itself. Not at all. This is simply an observation, use it as you will. When we're accused of being patronizing for having the list at all, people want to kill it. When we're accused of being control freaks for only sharing table scrap mobs (say, outdoor dragons), people want to stop the list. When we're accused of being anti-social children for killing every target, people want to lock it down harder.

The more you rally against someone, the harder they'll push back. Every time TMO is vilified (rightly or wrongly), a specific mentality is inflamed. Certain actions and statements, however justifiable, true, or untrue, are adding fuel to the fire.

Food for thought.

You're not really in the position to grace the server by allowing other guilds to get 1 kill a week at your desecration anymore. You guys can't lock down half the targets anymore when you try to. Moot point is moot.
