Raid Scene
It continues to be an aggravating realization among CSR staff that 10% of the server population causes 90% of the problems. We are all for competition, but it needs to be fair competition. We are also all here for the same thing, to experience classic Everquest. The same guild monopolizing raid content for 2 years that they might not even need anymore is ridiculous, just to block other guilds from the chance of gearing up to take on the same end game content.

I was thinking to myself the other day and I came to ask myself.. Are we providing this server to give people the arena to compete to such bitter extremes that it has resorted to taking every absolute measure to be victorious, or are we here to provide a classic Everquest experience for everyone to enjoy?

A lot of you make fun of it in your own terms, but it really does come down to fighting over very old content.

Either way, we're tired of the constant bickering, the training, the ninja looting, and all the other bullshit that's going on. So here's what we're going to do.

Starting today and then evaluated when Velious is released the CSR staff will be keeping track of how the raid guilds are treating eachother. If we do not see a significant improvement in the behavior of the raiding guilds and how they treat eachother, Velious will be released without raid content. To be clear, we want an enjoyable raid scene for everyone, not just one or two guilds. This means working together to figure out a compromise when racing for mobs, and working with smaller guilds to let them have a chance at mobs you don't absolutely need for gearing main characters.

Don't think that this means you can continue shitting on each other and just not petition, the staff will still be watching.

I would like to request the complete removal of RnF. It contributes just as much to the shit show. If people want to rant and flame let them do it on their guild forums.

People can't rant in RnF now.

Sorry, some people are pissed that TMO has not only monopolized content for the past 2 years, but have been duping platinum and RMTing as well

This has got to be the worst post I have ever read on these forums.

This is really shortsighted.

Removal of RnF creates headaches for moderators because RnF is a convenient sequester for BS most people don't care to read, and RnF spills into the other forums if it isn't allowed to happen in a designated place.

Sorry, RnF is practical and makes sense. Banning alcohol didn't prevent people from drinking themselves stupid; just guaranteed that violent criminals made money from selling it instead of honest people.

So much win in this post

It is a post in response to what Rogean has asked us to do as a community to improve the general atmosphere of the server. Has nothing to do with TMO at all. We have to work to improve things z d RnF is festering cesspool. That is my Opinion and you are entitled to your vote/opinion as well.

RnF has turned into an excuse to not moderate conversations and flaming a thread has become a tactic to sweep worthwhile conversations under the rug to maintain the status quo.

Think of RnF as a dumpster. Why do you give a damn if there are feces in the dumpster instead of normal garbage?

There are many people who post threads on these forums. There are 530 people logged into this website this second.

It's impracticable to expect that a handful of moderators would take their time to comb through all posts if RnF was removed.

RnF...

Nevermind.

Think of a thread as a party. If one jerk ruins the party, do you throw everyone out on the street, or just the guy causing problems?
