Rotations =/= handouts

[Gwence]

people on these forums use the word competition so much it's lost all it's meaning

newsflash - there is no competition on this server, there never has been any competition on this server. Even before poopsocking was implemented it was simply a very well organized good guild -vs- not so organized and ill prepared guilds. Why do you think poopsocks were introduced at all? The not so well organized guilds had to find a way to give them opportunities at killing bosses. And this template has held true throughout the servers history regardless of which guild is on top.


If anything a rotation is actually more competition based on the traditional definition of the word. It gives everyone an even playing field and the talent will show through or it won't. Not every guild will be capable of killing top end bosses ESPECIALLY in Velious. So you're only competition and really the only competition that's ever existed in EQ from the beginning of the game back in 1999 is the competition within your own guild and your own self to do whatever you can to make you and your guild better.

If it was PVP it would be a different story, but it's not.
