I've read half this thread so far, but all I can see so far is that no one here can agree on a way to split mobs that doesn't give TMO 80% or more of the attempts... Isn't that a monopoly and the whole thing we are trying to prevent? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] This is why I suggested a XASTEN STYLE BAG LIMIT in the other thread. Limit the mob intake.

I think most of those suggestions were to just bring TMO to the negotiating table to begin with, something they never even considered before. But now that Rogean has given the rest of the server the majority rule, I think the monopoly is effectively dead.

It continues to be an aggravating realization among CSR staff that 10% of the server population causes 90% of the problems. We are all for competition, but it needs to be fair competition. We are also all here for the same thing, to experience classic Everquest. The same guild monopolizing raid content for 2 years that they might not even need anymore is ridiculous, just to block other guilds from the chance of gearing up to take on the same end game content.

I don't post much here but this issue is obviously an issue for everybody so I read this whole thread.
My impression is that it is 5 or 6 persons, always the same, who didn't really understand the above quote and seem to be somehow convinced that they are deciding about what will be and what will not be the rules on P99.

Somebody even wrote something in the sense "Rotation will never happen because I don't like it".
On the other hand there are some 10 guilds able to raid and I don't see them giving their opinions and votes here.

My suggestion : create a board section for Guild leaderships ONLY.
For each guild 2 representatives.
The names of the guilds are chosen by CSR for their ability to raid.
That makes about 20 people.
They discuss whatever they need to discuss and vote if some points need voting.
2/3 majority wins the vote.

As we were clearly told : Mods WILL enforce the decisions
This means that if the already mentioned 10% who cause 95% of the problems don't like the decisions of the majority they have only 2 options - either leave or obey.
Should there be despite everything still somebody who willfully breaks the rules decided by the majority, he gets banned.

With that the 10% that would potentially cause problems shrink to 0% within 1 month.
