Probably true.

I think as the weather gets nicer and now that velious has been out for a while you'll really start to see people go off and do other things. The raid scene is pretty bad IMO when u get to tov/kael/ whatever crap is hotly contested, it might get a little better with lower pop but who knows. Remember though, the hardcore people in awakened/aftermath don't actually give a shit about getting new pixels or experiencing content, they just wanna feel like they're "better" than people, and that requires excluding you from content AND your "tears". All the raid discussion talks are just ways for them to see what they consider "tears" from the casual guilds and it strokes their ego. If you want to eventually see this content but not have to stare at walls for 10 hours, I think the best thing to do is just pretend that this part of the game is pay to win (fuck yeah station cash!) and just enjoy the free to play part for now and be patient. If guilds keep putting up demands for fixing the raid scene, it keeps fueling that "competitive" fire in AA. But if AA sees that no one else gives a shit, eventually they'll get bored.

All the ridiculous rules you see in place are in place because of <insert whatever iteration of top 2 guilds> doing absolutely retarded things for a video game and then complaining about the other guild. But it doesn't matter how many rules you put in place, since the people who ultimately rule on these things will still have some sort of bias in their decision (you can spin it whichever way you like idc) and you will never be able to lay out specific enough rules to get rid of any bias of human judgement, ever. The rules should be simple with room for interpretation, but since there is limited enforcement and difficulty in proving wrongdoing, punishments should be somewhat severe, otherwise you just promote the lawyerquesting/rulepushing mentality that exists here. Some people like that scene I guess tho, and I doubt it will change anytime soon.
