Asking a favor from the two top guilds on the server

Getting rid of the FTE policy entirely would be a great first step to fixing things around here.

remove variance and eliminate gm intervention except on cases of ninja looting, i guarantee there would be a rotation within month

who would want that tho? peace doesnt make for exciting thread titles and website traffic

if all the threads were about "what class i should make?" or "whats a good spot for a lvl whatever shaman to solo" then this would be a rather dismal place

/tinfoilhat off

I agree this would be a great step after removing FTE, with the exception that training should still be considered something against the "play nice policy" and suspensions should be awarded for breaking such policy(outside of Greifer's Peak of course).

They also should enforce a "raid force" policy, that once you have enough players in a zone that could realistically kill a particular target and they are in position to engage such a target that they should be given first dibs on said target.

This would specifically be a good way to combat a guild like TMO who have many individual players camping multiple alts at different mobs so via batphone they are a click away from adding another player to the force since poopsocks involving multiple guilds can't exist under this ruleset and whatever character that's camped there is camped there for nothing in this situation.

This suggestion of course has been repeatedly ignored even though it's known there are timestamps for how long characters have been logged in and when they enter zones so proving who's "force" was there first is as simple as a GM looking at a zonelog.

People will always find things to flame each other over, don't lose faith just yet.

The GMs did this once with the 15 man policy, and all it really did was promote poop socking. I don't think this is the answer we're looking for here.
