Try to separate in your mind that two things happened with the raid scene changes: (1) The casuals were allowed a slice of the action under the C/R/FFA regime. (2) And then variance was reduced to 16 hours, and certain rules were implemented that heightened the burden of maintaining adequate readyness. And (3) VP was returned to CSR mode.

The C/R/FFA system is what it is. I honestly don't care if 2/3 of this server sits in line for 1/3 of the end game content. Whatever.

Number 2 has created these stupid races which requires groups of 10-15 of mindless drones to sit at the entrance of vp all day, every weekend, waiting for that spawn to occur, and hoping to God it doesn't happen in that split second of time it takes to readjust your poop sock.

Number 3 has made the petition fest what it is today, among other things.

If there is any correlation between server numbers and raid scene changes, then most if not all will be because of change number 1. Red server has also seen a staggerring resurgence (from 30 at peak times to 300), and none of the above changes affected that server.

I am sure some people out there enjoy coth and VP zone in races. I would hope that they are few and far between.

This guy.

Hopefully you kept a bunch of screenshots from your glory days here-they aren't coming back.

Much brighter days are already here. Though, like the holocaust, it's important to remember even the horrors of the past. Post them to be added to the "Annals of Infamy".

Good catch. They were always allowed a slice of the action. Now it's just given to them.

But again i never really cared about the small scale forced rotation. Probably wasn't a bad solution.

It's the other changes that are so awful. Reading comprehension for the love of God ...

Are you sure? I mean we have people that poopsock the VP pad for repops even when dragons are not in window. I think the biggest change is the sheer number of L60 toons on this server owing to the length of Kunark and Chardok exploits.
