End of the rotation?

And nine, nine Pixels were gifted to the hardcore raiders, who above all else desired loots. For within these pixels was bound the strength and will to dominate server content.

But they were all of them deceived, for an agreement was made. In the land of Forumquest, in the fires RNF, the players and staff forged in secret a master rotation to control all others, and into this agreement, they poured their fairness, their justice, and their will to regulate all raiding. One rotation to rule them all.

Meanwhile, one by one the free guilds of P99 fell to the power of TMO. But there were some who resisted. A last alliance of casuals and neckbeards marched against the armies of TMO and on the threads of RNF, they fought for the freedom of P99. Victory was near but the power of the Pixel could not be undone. It was in this moment when all hope had faded that Rogean, Lord of the Box, took up his banhammer... Zeelot, the enemy of the casuals of P99 was defeated.

The Pixels passed to Zagum, who had this one chance to obstruct any agreement forever. But the hardcores were easily convinced. And the Pixels have a will of their own. They betrayed old TMO to its death. And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend, legend became myth, and for twelve and a half months, the Pixels passed out of all knowledge until, when chance came, they ensnared a new bearer. The Pixels came to the creature Chest who took them deep into the basement of his mother's house and there it consumed him. The Pixels brought to Chest unnatural long playtimes. For five months, they poisoned his life. And in the gloom of Chest's bedroom, they waited.

Darkness crept back into the forums. Rumor grew of a shadow in the rotation, whimpers of unfairness and the Pixels perceived their time had now come. They abandoned the rotation. But something happened the Pixels did not intend. They were picked up by the most unlikely creatures imaginable: casual scum, Taken, BDA, and Divinity. For the times will soon come when Casuals will shape the fortunes of us all...

This is good. VERY good

The biggest issue is that TMO consists primarily of unemployed neckbeards which gives them "hardcore raider" status some how. So-called "casuals" have lives outside of EQ, while TMO (and their ilk) do not, so I can certainly understand how pixel lust is so important to them: it IS their lives.

No, we're employed, we just get to play EQ at work. Hardcore!

It's actually the opposite we have a large amount of people who work office jobs and/or telecommute so they can log in at work during batphones.

Don't get me wrong we also have a large amount of Junkies and unemployed basement dwellers.

TMO is the only place where you can watcher a Banker, A copyright Lawyer and a Heroin Addict all have a friendly conversation. It's truly a fantastic thing.

Seeing the amount of level 60's and tracking hours some of my guildmates have I don't consider EQ anything other than "The drug dealers house" these Dragons are little clear plastic baggies of joy for these men.

Ok, so lets get this right. You have to kill one of the hardest mobs to get to The easier mobs. How does this work for guilds that want to form in the future? They will be completely unable to gear their members on easier raid targets to take on the harder ones.
and how is it 3? guilds can bully the other 7, they are going against the majority so nothing should change from class r currently. the only thing I would say should be changed is if two guilds combine forces to take out a target both their slots are eaten for that mobs rotation.

There's a conspiracy here, boys.... Chest is led by BDA. Ex-BDA members populate the 99% of all working class raiders in Class C Guilds (TMO/IB). Where did Chest's influence really end? or did he program the people who left with the ritualistic sacrifice of pixels? My guess is that now the rats will be eating the woodwork from within, boys and girls. Watch out for the fucking snakes. Omni is an ex-BDA coalition for abusing the Class R system, and it is well known and supported by inside informants (RIP Metallikus) that Chest/Cloki agreed to a 51/49 split of access to the new pixels for their alts. Enter (for the third time) Hyjal and his guns drawn attitude toward p99 Welfare. He pretends that he's all alone, but really he is Clyde and Chest is Bonnie. Their con to pull the wool over all of our heads has worked. Now they are robbing our vending machines. What does that mean for scapegoat Omni? You're going to be without any snacks or soft-drinks.

This destruction of the rotation has been brought about by the BDA-Lord Bob conspiracy. The second Hyjal took up reign (for the third time), lord Bob immediately starting sniping 99% of ALL mobs from the Class R rotation. BDA pullers who lost to lord bob most recently at draco threw the game by "getting rooted." WHERE ARE THE FRAPS? I say that BDA Pullers just let lord bob take the draco so that Chest could burn down the rotation, reabsorb Omni, assassinate Hyjal, end the rotation, and begin the the Long Goodbye.
This is what I'd call the workings of a meta-psychotic.
