Epic for Ninik!

sounds like a sufficient draco force to me and more than 8 people with some of your explanation indicating a vague number.


Either way regardless of the "fiasco" and all that jazz as it is for those involved and their own personal skill, my topic is more or less about the GM's words and the "behavior" that occurred from a suspended guild in which she warned/suspended yet still happens to make a mess causing her and her new guides even more issues.

it was maybe a sufficient force with 2 clerics but not once they gate as soon as they see draco. The clerics both gated and told everyone to wipe.

The rest was bad luck. In terms of the "behavior" you speak of. From our perspective this was our behavior. Having some fun in an empty zone, we aggrod a mob. We gated and wiped. The rest was out of our hands. Besides from a damage shield or some random pet responding to AoE, I trust that not a single member of the expeditionary force that was there tried to actually damage draco.

We know we are raid suspended--do you really think we would risk anything further ? On our list of things to do last night, train the shit out of BDA and ruin their night and have them try to get us banned was not one of them.

Dear Ex-Taken member & new Bad Kids member - i thought you and I were friends. Why are you *SO* *FUCKING* *MAD* at me?

If you are bitching about inconsitancies then how about this - maybe i'm fucking tired. Ever consider that? Maybe i'm exhausted and worn down and when I try to take a break I get messaged in IRC or my guides need me so they text me. Or I walk past the computer and see some tom foolery going on. I have the right to take time outside of the game but people don't fucking understand that and that's why i posted sets of rules today. So quit Dissecting everything I say, Laminin.

Sick to fucking death of people ASS uming they know what the fuck is going down. Messages from people complaining about Peruns punishment. How do you know what his punishment is. How do you know I didn't change my mind on what the punishment is? since friday it has been non-stop messages from people who are crying about their banned accounts (2-boxers) or people who are crying about being suspended or raid suspended. and people crying about shit that is just flat out none of their business. it has been ABSOLUTELY non-stop.

and i've said it several times on the forum here before. My dad JUST got out of the fucking hospital and i've been taking care of him and taking care of the server when i can. He had emergency surgery the saturday before last and he came home this past saturday. HE is my priority - not you people. And you need to quit assuming that everything i say is a broad fucking sweeping statement. If there are inconsistancies then maybe, just maybe, I'm fucking tired. Or maybe, JUST MAYBE, you are nitpicking shit to death or reading something wrong.

And do you realize how dumb you are being "OMG they were in the wrong place at the wrong time FUCKING SUSPEND THEM"

Jesus fuck. let it go.

that is the dumbest damn argument i've ever heard TBH. until i receive fraps that SHOWS Me that they were actively DPSing Draco down and raiding then i'm not going to punish them. They were in fear and Draco spawned on top of them. They did their very best to get out of the zone and not interfere with other raids.

IF they buffed a raid or helped a raid by kiting for them during the kill or killing their trash etc. or engaging the mob then i could see it.

*editing to add* yes. i'm being a bitch here. I'm sick of being attacked.

So, to get this straight.. You're saying that I can run around and lower a mob down to summoning level (in order to make it summon kiters) drag it to the zone IN.. And "gate/die" once it's there (on top of a guild that zones in).. And then have my sister-guild go in when it's clear and kill the mob..

As long as I make up a nice story about how "oops, I went linkdead while I was standing in the wrong position"

Got it.. Thanks.. That sounds perfectly reasonable!

Who sends an entire raid force through the Fear portal without having intel on exactly what's on the other side and whether it's safe to have everyone zone in or not? Regardless of whether IB was just goofing off, or actually had the perceived malicious intent, BDA could have avoided ALL OF THIS by sending in a FD scout like everyone else does, and letting the rest of the raid force know when it's safe to zone in.

Even if you have just cleared two hours before. CT could have re-popped the zone. Some trash that had been killed before you came into clear may have respawned. You don't know, so why risk zoning your entire raid into an unknown situation if you can help it?

Instead, it's easier to point blame and create conspiracy theories, am I right? Again, not trying to be a dick... but send a scout into Fear ahead of your raid force. Always. This is why.

Oh, you mean the same reason that VD had no trackers in zone, but Mysteriously knew exactly that draco was up?

HRMMMM WONDER HOW VD FIGURED THAT OUT GAIZ? Anybody have any idea? I certainly don't..

Oh, not to mention the fact that the competition plays by shitty "First to engage" rules and acts like bitchy little girls over crap loot that always requires gms to spend at least a month trying to figure out what exactly happened?

Why would anyone zone their forces into a raid zone while those rules apply.. I haven't the foggiest.. I mean seriously guys.. WHY would someone zone into a zone to kill a raid mob when that's the way the server handles raid mobs??

Not to mention, Why IB was in a zone that has pretty much nothing but raid content anyway? I mean.. I could understand dicking around in KC, or say.. EJ, or DL, Even Seb, or Permafrost, or solb.. or any of the other zones that raid mobs just so happen to spawn in.. But fear? Most guilds I know bring at least 2-3 groups to fear..

Because this is the first time ever in the history of Everquest that one guild has told another guild that a mob was up. I didn't realize sharing information was unethical or wrong? No one was sure complaining about TMO sharing all the raid target window information with anyone, right?

Um, do you mean, the server raid rules by which we're all bound?

The rules of engagement for raid bosses on Project 1999 are First to Engage (FTE) in any situation that is not covered below.

It takes ten seconds to zone in someone that can FD in advance of the raid force to make sure the zone-in is clear and nothing fishy is going on. Come on now.

The raid content of CT and Draco were not up at the time they were dicking around. Some classes can SOLO in Fear, especially if there's only a few mobs up as it is.

Seriously, stop looking for conspiracy theories. We didn't go apeshit on you when you trained Trakanon on us while we were recovering from our first attempt. We knew that was unintentional.
