Heh, what's funny is that I talked about this with IB, and they agreed that we should just flip the spawn day to a more realistic raid time (not 2 am) now they are the ones complaining about it =P

Ya this isn't the first time. Either they need better communication or they want to bitch at us instead of their own officers for agreeing to it.

I suspect that within the lives of some IB members they have nothing better to do than to sit around and wait for Everquest raid content to respawn. Call it a lack of acceptance on live or a failure to be a part of a true raid guild. They must now promote themselves(and their prides) in order to experience something they never had. Maybe it is their way of reliving experiences they never had.

OR

They are an embarrassment to their guild. That do nothing but stain the guildtag by trolling forums all day.

So is 24 hours enough time for you guys to kill your mobs this time?

Providing content for the players was not the reason for expansions. It was Money. If Verant/SOE gave one shit about it's players they would not have cut their ENTIRE CS department a month into a game that was so popular they didn't have 1/10th of the bandwidth needed to support it at launch.

Money. That was the basic reason for expansion. There is a reason that RoK took a year to get out and every expansion after was 6 months like clockwork. They were not prepared for the popularity of the game. They did not realize it was going to be a license to print money. Kunark was originally supposed to be content that was provided for FREE (as well as Velious) but when they realized that they could make a buck by selling the continent, they didn't bat an eye. When they realized they could keep making money they jacked up the price. RoK originally sold for $20.00, by the time PoP came out they were selling expansions for $50.00 because they knew people would pay it.

Don't delude yourself for a second that they were providing YOU with content and new experiences and that they gave a flying fluck what you thought. They were providing you with something to spend money on, that's it.

Demand, in business terms, can be expressed as money, which was the intent of my previous statements.

Big, if you were talking to me with your last post, we're saying the same thing man.

AAARRRGGH

Not directed at you. Just have always had a visceral reaction to the belief that game companies put out expansions to provide content for players.

you know whats "a something that is retarded"

The fact that the server is down.

It'd take 7 "8 day rotations (ie just shy of two months) before 2 more pieces of emu loot would be entered into the system under what Karsten just described.

Personally, for me, I'd prefer some form of Gaussian distribution with 1 standard deviation = 1 day with an average expected spawn date of 7 days! Randomness ftw!
