What this guy said.
It's not that it's about ill-will or disrespect. It's about following a ruleset that is fair enough that you are given a chance. One problem I do find is that none of the suggestions thus far really *DO* offer much to pickup raids or what have you, so I can understand your viewpoint. Unfortunately very little "standing up" is going on from groups that aren't receiving what they perceive as a fair chance. The "fuck you" attitude can work if you have your shit together. I don't know what FB accomplished because I wasn't there at the time.
If you're willing to take the risk of not having anything to fall back on, then more power to you. Abacab is doing it. With the current ruleset it's difficult to maintain a force and therefore his claims to boss mobs aren't upheld. He
is proving a point, though.
Whether we like it or not we are following the rules as they exist today. As many have said, it's not fun. Frankly I'm having a blast chit chatting with people and cracking jokes with some IB members while we all wait it out. I've helped get some gear for some applicants/new members and even got some gear for myself $$$. This doesn't work for everyone and I'm sure it eventually gets boring/frustrating.
