Sadly crying won't earn you sympathy here on the forums. Shit happens like this every day in real life such as good-hearted small business owners working their whole life pouring their heart and soul into a business only to be shut down by greedy corporate fat cats that just care about profits. Sure these small business owners get some support from their community but at the end of the day money and power is all that exists and your experiences mean nothing unless you possess the two.
And to the poster above, of course TMO will be nice to your face - they have no reason to be angry. They get whatever they want ten times over at the expense of everybody else on the server that play for other reasons than "kill every raid mob over and over to get all possible loot and feel awesome".
The greatest mystery remains why anybody would feel any pride or power dominating an emulation server of a 10+ year old game. I feel as people in TMO are the people that were in the runner-up guilds on live in the classic era and have a bunch of pent up rage over never being #1. Or perhaps they were in the #1 guilds and it was the only time in their life they felt like they were awesome and good at something and they're here on P1999 trying to reclaim that feeling.
Either way it doesn't matter. There's always that kid in the sandbox trying to ruin the fun for everyone else. Unless GMs enforce some rotation or more civilized system then there will always be stories like OP around. Sad, but reality.
