Less quakes right now would be ideal
ive noticed this with some of the guilds on green. its the same 3 guilds going after all of the natural cycle targets, while the other guilds "eat from the trash like a raccoon" as someone said earlier.

Confusing comment. What did you expect would happen with non instanced raiding? Natural targets have and always will be contested mostly by 2-3 of the same guilds because they have the size to track/monitor the spawns and mobilize a force large enough to take it down ASAP.

The draft/quakes aren't the reason for this. It's because the smaller guilds simply don't have the resources to contest natural spawns regularly. I don't think you played on this server before the draft/quakes. Natural spawns end up going the same way with or without the draft/quakes. Draft and quakes are basically the only way smaller guilds have a shot at getting anything.

also as said here by others - it was cool when people were gearing up their 1st or 2nd toons. but now on quakes, its about gearing up your 3rd shitter rogue that is just for fun. or your 2nd shaman or 3rd cleric etc.
This comment also seems nonsensical. So are people just not supposed to roll more than one alt? They're not allowed to roll a second or third or fourth alt and enjoy playing classic EQ and gearing that character up? This comment makes it seem like you're just whining because you have one main and don't like competing in DKP bids with someone's alt...but even then most guilds have loot rules on certain drops that don't allow someone to bid on the item for an alt or otherwise require a premium DKP bid such that sometimes people won't bid if it's for an alt. All you do on these forums is whine dude lol.

The irony of someone saying this who has posted some of the threads and replies that you have over the past 2 years. Not to mention the fact that you are clearly evading a forum ban on your last account before this one.

Seems like someone might need to take their own advice a little bit [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Why would I need to go through your history? I've seen multiple threads of yours that you've posted the last few months that are basically all complaining/whining. You also do the same thing in replies to other threads.

Do you have so little going on that you feel the need to post whiney things on the P99 forums (especially after you were clearly banned on your last account, yet still remain here on your new one)?
