Guilds still poopsock?

Personally haven't seen a full on sock since the window extender change was put in. Only thing close to being socked is VS when there's 5-8 people from guilds there killing or sitting there.

Think there was 25 of each yesterday though but I wasn't there =x

I would love to know the purpose of this change. Nobody I have spoken to cares for it, regardless of guild affiliation.

I like the change because of the possible extreme scenario, but I think it's bitter that that the server is getting less mobs overall. I feel they should balance it with some sort of functionality that provides more early pops at the same time.

I'd like to clarify some misinformation that was provided with the latest patch, starting with the lack of a patch note and then an error in confirmation on my part.

Back when we were discussing changes about extending the window of a mob's spawn when it fell within the last 15%, I wrote some code to show as an example. Turns out that code ended up staying in and I had forgotten about it, and it went live with the latest compile.

So...

Patch Note: Respawn timers that fall within the last 15% of a window will now be extended by a random amount up to 24 additional hours, repeating accumlatively until the window is under 85% for total potential spawn time. This currently applies to all mobs who have any variance at all, but will be adjusted next patch to only include mobs that have a minimum base spawn of 2 days or more.
