There should be nobody on this box that played classic Everquest claiming that this atrocity of an end-game is anything close to classic Everquest my Louisiana brethren.

Not all classic servers were the same. Some servers had GM enforced rotations according to many ppl. Some had first in force type rules. I remember guilds getting warnings from GM's for leapfrogging on my server back in the day. Not every server was a FFA cesspool.

Name a classic EQ server that had 16 hour variance windows with multiple guilds tracking for the entire duration and racing to FTE it the second it spawns by any means necessary. Whether its CoTH, TL Box, Rilespam, Strafejumping, Lev rings, Selos/SoW, Nets/Mallets or using RAM drives to zone faster or running 3rd party scripts/autofire (and getting banned for it) or whatever other dumb thing we abuse to win the FTE race. None of this shit existed back then. If it did I guaran-fucking-tee you Verant/SoE would've done something about it and that something wouldn't have been make rules about footracing from the zonein.

And you guys know the reason why we have both the foot races and variance, right?

How about we implement some type of mechanic that restricts looting of corpses (for a defined period) to members of the group that defeated the mob?

When did all previously named asgard members adopt old tmo mentality? Was Art the only casual in that guild?

No, I just find it funny that when our guilds do something for the betterment of everyone, people still find a reason to cry. I still love everyone equally, but that love is fading fast.

It is a fascinating case study. They basically let Forsaken do all the work for them, yet act completely entitled to the results. They are the 7-10 guys. They get some playing time but not when it counts. They'll get the rings. People know them around town, but everyone knows who brought home the banner.

I think we should ban the use of any item or spell that gives one player an advantage over another. Unless every person on every raid has access to the exact same pieces of gear, none of that gear should be allowed. That is pretty much where we're headed, right?
