Nah. Lots of characters camped at raid targets, tracking, and FTE kept TMO alive for so long. Duping, RMTing, and whining took us down.

Fixed that for you
Duping, RMTing, and whining did not keep TMO alive for so long. 2 people duped, 2 RMTd (that I'm aware of) in our history. Those are individuals, not the entire guild. People paying crazy prices for BPs and loot made the guild banks rich, it had nothing to do with any duping. If we had unlimited plat, our guild bank would have been buying whatever we wanted for our alts. We had a lot of PP, but not unlimited.

I have never understood the competitiveness of people on this server. Aside from the fact that its a video game, this is a reroll. An emulation. If your guild cleared Velious first on Live, I would call that an accomplishment. There was scope for creativity. People had to actually work out the quests. Figure out the strategies. Now? We know it all - it's just a matter of showing up more than the other guys.

We get it, loraen. It's an emulated server. People like you push so hard for classic, but only if it's benefitting you. I don't know about you, but i clearly remember one guild dominating content in classic. Why do you think instancing was made in the first place? And before all you people say OMG there was rotations on live, those were rotations when velious, at the least, was already in place. A time when there was more than 17 raid mobs.

I posted waybacks of my server's planar rotations in the Kunark era a week or two ago. False.

Strange post to me.

First, it's not clear to me that I'll get more pixels in a TMO-less world. Quite a few things I never managed to buy from you guys.

Second, if I'm an asshole because I push for classic policies like no trains in vp, no variance, and repops that happen to benefit me, what does that make you? You are pushing for non-classic policies like variance and trains in VP because they benefit you. So I think you are on shaky ground there.

Finally, the idea that we have to change the mechanics until we can get a dominant guild is just beyond dumb.

I also remember back in 2000 when my batphone would wake me up at 4am to log on my third raid alt and kill the dragon! Even at the time, I knew it was classic.

Rogean can do whatever the hell he wants because it's his server. If you can't deal with that please go play elsewhere.
