A modest proposal
Everyone has been talking about variance. Here's a proposal that I think satisfies all sides:
Currently, there are two spawns: First, is the world timer spawns, which are 3 to 7 days for respective mobs, and are split so that 1 guild can stake claim to, and govern their spawn timers. Second, is the "random" respawns that seems to be controlled by GMs, which give a second serving of mobs, not sharing the worldtimer, also not encouraging any pvp competition for Back in the days of Sony, mobs respawned after servers were hard reset, after a patch, generally on Tuesday afternoons. My proposal is that there be a hard code to emulate a hard reset, scaling in 7% increments. For example: Server resets on Sunday at a random time. 7% chance for reset on Monday 14% Tuesday 21% Wednesday 28% Thursday and so on. Furthermore, the resets should be random between peak times, such as 7pm-12am EST, which gives a 5 hour window. I think this is better than to have random spawn timers for individual mobs. I'm interested in hearing thoughts, and please, keep this thread a productive, non-flame thread. I'm asking for moderation in here if people start flaming and get off track. I think this will also encourage people to be online more often, rather than a few days a week where they get to 'choose' the raids they want to partake in.

Maybe I'm wrong and we should do Tuesday patch day repops between 2 and 4pm est like they were on live instead of random hours during peak times on random days. Eurocore would be happy I'm sure.
