What will the raid scene look like 6 months from now? Predictions!

[Melissa]

I would put this in server chat but we all know it'll just get sent to rnf...cause complaints about the new rules are welcome here too

What do u guys think, assuming minor amendments are made to cover the "what ifs" that are being posted, the raid scene will look like in 6 months, 12 months, assume velious comes out in the 12 months portion and 6 months is the period starting this week until velious rolls out.

I'd ask people not to sit here and be like "fuck you chest, bda, casual scum, etc" but what are your predictions?

2 guild disbandings and 3 raid suspensions.

many of these 'casuals' you speak of have been on this server since 2009 when it was created....

So I don't think you will see an inordinate amount of casual burn out that is any different than normal EQ burn out.

Nice try though.

burnout happens from waking up to 4am batphones, not playing casually. insult.

I dunno, I'm pretty damn burnt from logging in once a week to hollar at friends.

I'll be forming pick up raids for VS, Draco, and Faydedar once every 1-2 weeks for anyone that wants to come and random.

Hardcore raiders somehow think that the new rules will burnout casuals. They don't realize most casual guilds raid at least 3 times a week, but now they'll be killing dragons somtimes instead of clearing fear/hate. Basically they're just crying, trying to convince themselves that the server will be dead because the GMs didn't do what they wanted. The Ocean of Tears is filling up quickly.

lol nice predictions, haters

Casuals burn out a lot faster then hardcores, and most hardcore guilds have tons of turn over people who break/quit.

but youll believe what you want
