Join a guild that doesn't win all the time, when you do win it is fun.

The fun in Project1999's raid scene has always been monopolizing mobs then rubbing it in everyone's face.

We have fun.

And that children is why sim repops need to make a comeback.

The only reason people raid is pixel lust - either you have the fever or you dont

Im with you Dald, clearing trash endlessly does get extremely boring. There is a middle ground, however, between the fte train strat and what was previously mentioned. Namely, the dungeon crawl --> getting a bunch of people together and progressing through content. Mobs in raid zones were not designed and placed for the sole purpose of being in a train (I could be wrong about this, I don't know); rather for me, raiding is about both the complicated boss pull as well as raid management throughout the zone.

Problem with the dungeon crawl is non classic variance. You can't wait for everything to pop and do it the way it was meant to be done because someone else will come in and snipe the easy stuff. So you have to be creative in how you pull or you have to clear trash 10+ times as stuff pops. Its pretty absurd.

Yep, and that's why I said that for obvious reasons, the dungeon crawl cannot occur on this server.

For me it's the collective sh^t talking in TS
