I thought it was a great interview and explained the GM's lack of intervention in the current raid scene.
It is for the server to decide how we want to handle raid mobs, not the GMs. The current mechanics are in place to allow others to compete, if they so want. The fact that the more hardcore guilds don't want to band together and compete with TMO is nobodies fault but their own. FE's recent attempt was a good one, but they have seemed to fall apart recently.
FTE shouts will be a good thing to let everyone know who is currently engaged, so guilds aren't assisting other guilds without knowing until 10 minutes after the mob is dead.
Simulated server restarts will open up raid mobs because the top few guilds can't be everywhere at once. If they fail to position themselves prior to a simulated patch, or fail to down a mob, it is their own fault.
