http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...02&postcount=3

So apparently when it's in the rules, and the rules were followed in this case where 24 hours passed and FFA Badain still is up, and it's black and white as you say, they still claimed the rotation is over? Seems to just have been following the rules as they were written?
Wrong again, Misinformed. Want proof? Here you go, example of the lies this guild tells to fill their agenda:

Beginning of the Fraps you can see me say hey guys, we have 20 mins left before its FFA, were otw.

Your response: 15 minutes actually.

Again, heres some more math for the hard pressed:

from when you said 15 mins left, it was 0:01 second into the fraps. You turn in before the fraps is over, which is only 9:29 seconds long therefore making it impossible that you waited until it was FFA.

Try again.

What does a FFA ring war turn in have to do with a VP rotation though?
The reason it was handled is because at my urging I reminded the awakened officers just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

Leapfrogging an already set up raid force shortly after the 24 hour limit passed, while technically allowable, is a dick move.

Likewise, waiting until shortly after the 24 hour limit passed, and teaming up with another guild to do your ring war on a Sunday afternoon, because you don't have the force to do it, while it may technically be allowed, is a dick move.

If you're not big enough to be able to do a Ring War in the 24 hours following a pop on your own, team up with a guild and share a slot, or bow out entirely. Otherwise you're occupying a slot in a rotation you're not capable of doing in a timely manner delaying everyone else's turn in the rotation.

There is a reason those 24 hour and team up rules are in place. Trying to bypass them isn't going to be very agreeable to the other guilds who adhere to them. Especially when even if you follow them, and take an FFA spawn (although in a dickish way) you're still met with QQ.

I'm gone from the server. I just exist on the forums to continue pursuing classic EQ in the bug forums, push for real raid content in the form of Luclin and PoP, and apparently to comment on how dumb this servers raid scene is.

Been breathing for months.

I was 3-boxing Velketor's the other day. Got some solid exp. Before that I spent a little bit figuring out a strategy to 3-box Keldor in Kael. Was some good fun. Especially when your charmable dog pet wields weapons.

Also I did some grouping in Paludal Caverns on a Druid. Man was it boring but also hilarious to see how OP people are at that level with Fungi tunics. The dynamics are really weird with groups too, you just invite everyone because there's no penalty to do so. I think we had War, Ranger, Beast x3, Druid for a solid part of the night. I even saved a Beastlord from purple club at one point!

Sometimes you just need to re-immerse yourself by rerolling on a different server with a different culture/rule set and figure things out again. It's fun.

Just think when you are playing golf, and the group of 4 in front of you who suck at golf are taking waaaaaay to long to play the course. And will not let people who have the skill to play on that course play through. That's what is happening with ring wars.

The people that suck and do let people play through still get to play at their own pace and style of play...
