Well the staff agreed to a set of byzantine rules to my understanding. I'm sure they could also repeal said rules if they wanted. But an alternative could be worse unless well thought out. Threads like these aren't helpful because they are just throwing out populist drivel (likely from someone who doesn't raid or is a troll) with little actual thought to a workable solution.

Well that's kinda my point. "Competition" in EQ just fosters an environment requiring GM babysitting. A serverwide player agreement does the opposite.

This thread started to get better once casuals start fight with each other. Nice!

Figured you guys would enjoy that.

considering how cancerous the raid scene was throughout kunark, this current one is more than you can ask for or expect. at least the top 2 guilds are willing to entertain a discussion for change; that would've never happened back during the TMO/IB days. also, seeing the rest of the community split up dragons the past month was a beautiful thing. I don't know how much more of a hand-out you want, OP. part of the reason EQ is so unique is because in order to get the good stuff, you have to put in the work. this current system, although it has it's own flaws, will at least give other guilds an opportunity...something that wouldn't have ever happened back in the day.

We're willing to work with you guys. Don't bring the underdog in a holy war mentality with you, though.

CSG and Rustle have been around a long time. Follow their lead.

There were some big time mobs in that offer, and most of others were FFA if you guys were interested in trying to go from a good haul to a great one.

Willing to work with us? AM wanted ffa and they got what they wanted. They would have found a reason eventually to get what they wanted. They went from 12 mobs last agreement to 25 mobs this agreement (proposed), what would it be in the future? 40? all of them? When is it enough?

You may get CSG and Rustle to bend over and take whatever lessening scraps they can get each time. We will just choose to sit it out and let the server see how greedy AM continues to be. You've lost all sympathy on my part in having to deal with AW on a weekly basis. You two deserve each other.

You're just jumping to conclusions here. I'm not going to say much else because it appears to be over-provoking you, but if you trust that we aren't all that bad it might work out for you guys in the long run.

I think the best idea I've come up with so far is some sort of a Bag Limit. Each guild or alliance has a set # per expac, something like 10 (velious)/2(kunark)/1(classic ct/draco/inny/nag/vox)

Just have to keep the top players honest and create punishments for forming separate guilds for alts to get more than their allotment.

This causes the top tier guilds to be selective in what they go after and leaves enough content for the casuals as well.

me bitching about the raid scene two whole years ago

Just go through the raid discussion forum and you can see literally dozens of failed attempts at diplomacy. This has never changed, it will never change. You are literally wasting your time.
