Furthermore, Chest, I have seen you repeatedly flop trains on people in the Plane of Hate because you thought you'd been trained first.

People don't dislike BDA because it's full of casuals. People dislike BDA because it's full of whiny retards who are too fucking stupid and mad to actually be able to tell what's going on, save a few decent folks.

Jeremy makes some good points here. Thanks for the response to most of my questions Chest, even though the answers were self-important and white-knighting in nature. I'm happy your ranks continue to swell with the prospects of more pixels for your 100% noble, albeit starved returning members.

Lol, like anyone would take the word of anything someone in TMO would say.

People don't disklike TMO because you were on the top of the raid scene. People dislike TMO because its full of greedy selfish loot whores who are too fucking stupid to see what their leaders have done to them.

I was wondering why BDA thinks the raid scene is SO bad when it's really not. Now it all makes sense.

Right there's your competitive raiding experience. Oops I just shit all over every hardcore raiders argument.

See? These guys on red put in twice the effort that anyone else does. They deserve every last one of their pixels. You can't say you have a stake in the raid scene if you haven't tried to compete on their level.

Long story short.

TMO/FE used to fighting over the all of the pie. Even if the pie gets doubled they still want to fight over all of the pie. They're not happy getting to fight over a bigger pie if that means anyone else gets pie. So when BDA says they're not going to accept the burnt crust and they want some pie too, they get vilified.

Remember, Pie only tastes good if you're the only one eating it. Doesn't matter how much total pie is available, it matters weather or not you can deny pie to someone else.

A race to VS from the zone-in as opposed to the pit just means the idiots in each guild are going to train everyone. At least with a camp-out this is minimized, as is leapfrogging since it basically puts people on even footing. It's merely a reduction of your ideal raiding race. A race from Seb zone-in to Trakanon lair isn't fun - it's just going to be a bunch of bullshit trains, or it's going to be FIVE MINUTES OF INTENSE COTHING.

Don't get me wrong - I'm all for de-escalating the camp-out situation (except for Trakanon), but most people don't even really understand the series of events that led up to such a habit.
