What I don't get is at this point is it not considered griefing to monopolize content to this extent? If a guild on this server composed of all high level characters made it a mission to go and monopolize every newbie zone in the game insuring that no new character could level up from 1-5 would the GMs not step in and stop them? Or would newbies have to run around trying to FTE rats and bats?

Look I dislike the insane alpha-nerd competition that goes on on this server. But griefing? That's ridiculous. TMO simply designed their guild to play the variance game (a copy of IB's original model, and FE the latest instance). You get a whole bunch of players who really want the pixels, you give DKP for tracking, you recruit worldwide, etc etc. It's not TMO's fault that Velious is going to take 3 years to come out. Do you really expect a bunch of hardcore EQers to just say 'eh, we'll just all go on vacation for 2 years?'

Most recently:
FE downed gore with 33, which is about our average raid force.

Yet when FE gets a kill all loot is used by mains who need, how are we even placed in the same category as TMO? For christs sake they are running a pay to play scheme in VP meanwhile anyone not in TMO will have to wait months after velious is out to even go there unless they pay TMO or spend hours training against their 100 character raid force just to get an attempt at a dragon.


The problem.on p99 isn't mechanics, raid mobs spawn time, or anything thr GMs can change. P99s problem is TMO, has been for years. When people realize this on a grand scale maybe they will join forces and rid p99 of its cancer.
you are furious and cranking your posts up to troll levels of BS can't hide it.

How am I furious? I've seen the way things work here on p99, and the truth is you either join or pay TMO to see the end game. Been happeninh for 2 years or more now, you're just a greedy sheep among many in TMO who are blinded by the loot. Xarz, you haven't even been in TMO long enough to realize how wrong you are.


For example lets say you are a necro in the guild rapture, you just need CT and Inny to get your epic. Your guild is capable of killing both of these mobs but the only way to beat TMO's swarm numbers and training is to just poopsock literally days on end to kill 1 mob for one person. This requires your entire guild to camp out in hate, and keep in mind your guild doesn't have 2 years worth of raid loot to gear multiple toons and trivialize all content. This leads to people burning out or simply giving up in frustration and quitting p99.


But no worries for the fine price of 1 million or more plat you can buy your epic peices from TMO's overlords and finish your epic. All is well right? This seems totally fair, that the only way to complete epics here is join TMO/FE and invest insane amounts of time or invest insane amounts of time to farm the plat that TMO is asking, so this seems fair right?

It comes down to the type of guild TMO wants to be. Are they greedy hogs who would rather collect loot they don't need so they can sell for profit? Well based on history this was the choice they made, why you can't accept the fact that this is the guild you joined xarz? You're now associated with some of the greediest cunts I've ever come across on any MMO. And no, pixels don't make you the best guild, your members do. I see very few TMO in game that I would associate with in any manner. But that's just my personal integrity and honesty. Some of us lack that and are content lying to themselves to acquire pixels by any means necessary.





Really though I just wish people caught on fraps using exploits and training were banned accordingly. Desmo and aiaus should both be perma banned according to sirken's last broadcast about IP exemption exploiting, but both were unbanned despite clear fraps of their offenses.

This shit needs to be taken care of before this latest wave of new players on p99 soon learns the truth about the end game here and quits just like thousands of other players have in the past 3 years.

Don't let chronic whiners like Tasslehof discourage you, OP. A lot of us really enjoy the raiding here on p99!

How much weight do you think your opinion carries? Your guild is single handedly responsible for driving away thousands of players here, you shouldn't even be allowed to post on a thread regarding the dire state of the p99 raiding scene.
