Oh gawd forbid you do something besides raiding in your free game.

Fuck off.

You were the first person in this thread to bring up non-raiding

It seems like you're more angry than rational and looking for someone to blame. The raiding scene on Project 1999 is not the way I'd like it to be. I don't even particularly like to raid on Project 1999. I was in top guilds on live and it's all repetitive for me.

I didn't create the situation. Neither did anyone else in IB, DA, TR, or TMO. If TMO disbands and disappears today, nothing will change. Whoever is willing to put in the hours will get the majority of top end mobs.

I don't think Velious will change much, either. There will be a #2 and a #3 guild willing to camp Dozekar, Lodizal, VP, Venril Sathir. The only way things will change is if GMs establish and enforce something else.

Wrong, just grow the fuck up and do some rotations. It won't kill you to do something besides everquest raiding a few days a week, and if it does then good riddance to bad scum.

Your righteous indignation won't change anything, either, nor will your ill-founded assumptions. This is a systemic problem, not the results of individual actions. Literally hundreds of different people have been in the top guilds on this server. The people willing to put in time and lots of it are rewarded with the top kills. Some others aspire to it and get a few. Everyone else splits up the leavings and wishes things were different.

Incidentally, I'm not a member of any guild on Project 1999. This is an amusement for me, not a priority.

You've obviously never played on live if you believe for a second I'm assuming anything.

So what you are saying is that because a large number of people are being immature twits, that makes it ok?

This does nothing to address the fact that at the end of the day this is a game and the delicate genius raiders are indeed ruining things for everyone else.

Rotations worked on live, it's in the history books, a proven fact. Stop making excuses. I'll give Alarti credit for this and this only, as much as he spins shit out of whack, he's made it very clear that he knows he's a greedy cunt and doesn't give a fuck about anyone else. At least he's honest about that.

Wow, I get to agree with Alarti for once.

Really just fuck off in general Kagatob, you are a bad poster.

Again your assumptions fail you. I had a lot of free time in the early 2000s and I was in #1 and #2 guilds on live. It seems that you are angry that you don't get to kill the dragon and you want someone to blame and you think I am a convenient target.

I tend to be much more pragmatic than idealistic. If you think you can form a movement to change the server, more power to you. I would suggest that any group of fifty or so hardcore raiders who want to dominate the server will render any effort you can produce ineffective to the point of irrelevance. I make no particular judgment about immaturity or selfishness. Things simply are the way they are.

The hardcore raiders did not create classic EverQuest. On live, only a small percentage of people got the chance to kill the top boss mobs during any particular era. That's the way this games work. You seem to believe in some sort of nostalgic tour or EverQuest raiding. If you feel so strongly about that, perhaps you should consider creating that server. That server is not all what Project 1999 is or has been.

P1999 is trying to not be classic now? That's news to me.

+1

Also, how many guilds raided VP prior to velious ?

iirc 5% of the live guilds back then (and thats maybe already too much?). I remember discovering about the zone checking Graffe's wizard pages as someone from AL or FoH posted the robe of Invocation as new found item.

It still amazes me how they figured out questing/raiding back then, and all this with 56k modems lol. It was insane.

Also for the record : weren't there more guilds that had entered PoM at the end of velious than guilds that had entered VP at the end of kunark ? Somehow I have this impression but I might be mistaken (was EQ already getting easier in velious ?)
