This poopsock business is killing high-end players. It's killing DA, (why do you think IB is gaining back old members and DA isn't?), it's causing entire guilds to go back to live (hello, WI), and it's causing huge divides in other raiding guilds.

You can argue that there were other reasons WI left, but ultimately, it's competition, and how you have to play it in the end game.

The balance won't last forever. there's not an endless supply of 50's to replace what's being lost at high end.

Even IB played square before they adopted socking. They couldn't refuse to do it like other guilds, because they're ultimately concerned about loot. Given a choice though, between "do you,or do you not sock", IB won't.

Screw the attacks on DA from now on, there won't be any more from me. All I'm asking is you guys is to play a different way. Risk losing the loot in favor of a server that feels there can be real competition.

I won't make this a last post without a final word. I'm not Divinity, but once was, a long time ago. I still have close friends in that guild. In terms of playing honestly, and fairly, there's not a guild on the server that can touch them. They've been forced to do things like log at the ledge, but at least they didn't come up and sit next to DA. They wanted to try to beat them if they weren't ready, and that was the only way to do it.

Of course you won't say anything further. You got called out by Bronson and your guild has told you to be quiet. Where's the same criticism for IB? They poopsocked equally with the old rule set. As did your guild, but it wasn't committed as much as the rest.

Let me guess, you're going to say DA forced them too.
