what stops those casual guilds from raiding areas during the mobs window for a chance of spawn, beyond contrary belief every tmo/fe/ib do not have all their characters with epics....I see your standpoint, but these guilds aren't even trying, how often do you see them tracking, im not saying for entire spawn, at least to check if is up? the point of my argument is that im trying to encourage them to put forth the effort of making this a more competitive game.....if rotations were to be done, that would kill off tracking...people would join guilds with better reputations or where their friends are and guilds would get away with loot council on everything to gear up officers or friends before community, dkp shows merit and the value a member puts forth for their guild....and god forbid, A-Team would have their epics

Did you see any mobs left up while tmo was suspended? A lot of guilds got into the action.

He thinks T2 guilds don't use DKP; pretty sure he lives in a bubble.

don't see the relevance of DKP to guilds showing plenty of effort when the raid scene isn't being dominated by questionable tactics.

Nor do I, but chickmagnet seems to think using DKP increases poopsock willingness.

when there is no competition joroz , im the first to admit the hugue delay in velious have a impact in how the server developed.

i mean is very easy to blame , ib, tmo fe and bda in the end the truth this clusterfuck is due to lack of new things to people.


A prime example of this is my own guild tmo, at some point we lacked competition (wich started when tmo was FE and tmo was ib)and we turned into farm mode , people got bored and they levelñed alts, those alts of course are even more fun if they twink, so loot went to alts.
slowly guild decays but since remains realy uncontested guild get bloated(tmo never stoped to recruit, something hurted back in the IB).

Time pass and my guild only joy is competition if u look at the uncontested period pre FE tmo didint even half the strengh it had prior the froovy dupe and the following suspension.

suddenly FE rises and TMO is again in full road , good or bad the truth that kind of things keep the guild in motion.


whats the problem?FE suddenly have to deal and compete with alot of alts with good gear raid and motivated people , so its not like the TMO/IB first raid contest.


yes there is drama there is shit btw 2 guilds , im the first to admit i bashed people like tasslehoff and other FE members... list goes on.


but the thruth is suddenly we got cornered and when suspension was lifted fe ib tmo whre sittin at vp doors in a new scenario of competition, how it would have worked?.

i got no idea would have been fun to dicover once the 3 guild zoned into vp.


Now the drama is wich direction is the server rogean going to take . because there will be a fallout whatever rogean decision takes.

Quite a bit of Kunark is new to many of the players on this server, though they don't even get the chance to get bored of it because of all the players that say it's stagnant and old, yet still play it all the damn time anyway.

If this content is so stale that the only way you can enjoy it is by making a competition out of it, why not play red and let other people enjoy what you're not having fun with?

Actualy ravager u have a great point in that sense is a good idea , but there is alot of people who dont like pvp.

i mean i love everquest i love to raid but i love to group aswell and i love the sociala spects of the game.

if back in 2010 when i begin to test server there was a red server i would have probably attempt it (was guilded with alof of sullon zek ex pvpers). since there wasnt one i did attemp the only class i never played in live a necromancer.

If you don't like PVP, why is tier1 shoving it on the rest of the server? You realize this competition against other humans (players) for "fastest jav in the west" is player vs. player? On the blue server, competition should be "player vs. environment", regardless of how "old & stale" the environment is. That's the argument of casuals, PVP is for Red99, where you can turn around and attack that monk vying for "fastest jav in the west".

You're wrong

on blue, the other players that go against you are the environment.
