I do think it is hilarious that a guild that has merged numerous times, raided with 60+ people, and has been farming the same content non-stop for 2 years to the detriment of everyone else on the server is complaining when someone else utilizes a tactic they don't like. As people have mentioned else where, DA, which at least on P99 is the raiding successor of TMO (if I remember right TMO literally didn't have a single kill on the server before merging with DA/Ascension/Fusion) was the guild that popularized poopsocking as a tactic. You guys used poopsocking to get where you are now and "drive IB off the server".. but now it is a lame tactic.

TMO made some scattered efforts to get raid mobs pre-Kunark, but they weren't very successful and they didn't really try that hard. They used Kunark release as their push to go hardcore and managed to put up some fight at times then. TMO didn't become a real contender until after merging with the remnants of DA. Comparing current day TMO to DA or old TMO is totally pointless though, the similarities are few and far between. The overwhelming majority of modern TMO was never in DA or old TMO. The current raid guilds and tactics are a product of everything getting more and more ridiculous on the long term.

Don't really have an argument, I just find it annoying when people don't even know where this all came from. Shit, I've known Zeelot, Loly, Necrious and Fazlazen since long before most (probably 90+%) of today's FE or TMO ever killed a dragon on P99, and all four of them have been around significantly longer than I have.
