What once was started as a breath of fresh air, wonderment, and nostalgia has turned into a Costco version of EQ. Everything is bigger here; the bankrolls, the number of max lvl toons one owns and the egos. It will b hard to reverse Costco the server bc lets face it Costco is a successful business bc it puts in alot of effort. Some people have been here over 3 years, and possibly now they r getting a taste of that insatiable appettite of "winning EQ", which is something not easily given up once obtained. Sadly Velious should open up Kunark table scraps for others but whats the point of that?
If the raid scene had one more poopsocking intense guild then 3 would b a crowd for both FE n TMO so that eventually something would get changed but with such big rosters those guilds have its hard to create this 3rd guild as most would rather wait in thier soup lines in the zerg. Both sides make valid points, one hand the big guys invite others to try to compete w them while the small guys just view it as a waste of time.
Rotations work, there is no refuting this, the problem is who decides who is in this rotation and how do prove you are worthy of rotating X mob. No easy solution here but if u have enjoyed playing here for even one week id say the goal of the Project has been met, the rest is up to the community how Norrath should b as keeping the spirit of EQ should b a big part of this game. Hopefully there will contine to b more posts like my first link than the second.
