This isn't rocket surgery folks

They don't want to give up a %, and nor should they
R doesn't want to give up a %, and nor should they

Keep the %'s identical to how it is now and figure out a system, fuck

It puts in perspective the reasons, and saying the reasons makes you think about them consciously.

E.g. Currently a class C guild gets 10x of a mob for every 1x a class R guild gets. I would like to hear from class C themselves if this amount is really what they as individuals think is appropriate, rather than saying C/C/R or "we don't want to concede mobs" which obscures exactly how much more they get. This is beneficial for both class C themselves (they actually see the effect they have) and those who are trying to come to an agreement, to see where they stand. I bet that actual amount would cause some dissonance within class C ranks, they are people too after all, most of them good [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Here's my back of the envelope math crunching the numbers

While I appreciate those calculations, I think it's harder for people to put time into processing that. That's why I'm sort of after a simpler consideration. I would really like the class C members to think about that sincerely; their guild gets 10x of a mob for every 1x a class R guild gets. (This agrees with your numbers, 2*39/2 ~ 40 per class C guild if class C gets all FFA, 39/10 ~4). Do class C members really feel this is where the server should be? Not class C guild gets 5x of a class R guild or something more along those lines? That seems still like a ton more to me.

the percentages are that Class C gets about 75-80% of the mobs in a given month, if we moved to the new plan they'd get something between 65-70% of the mobs in a given month. That decrease is what they are arguing against. They want to maintain that ratio of 75-80% or if we went C/C/R just to eliminate the overlap in classes they'd get even more.

the only other proposal that they've considered is changing coth races to foot races which again does not change the culture of poop socking.

This server needs fundamental raid reform, not swapping one poopsock for another.
