Do not feed the troll.
You guys reaslise Samoht would start an argument in an empty room? He puts Alarti to shame.
Have you seen him and Alarti shit up a thread before? Stephen Hawking has a new theory thats where black holes come from.

Sorry, Qani, I'm not sitting this one out, and I'll try to be blunt and fairly cordial. This post should have never been moved to RnF as it is a legitimate server discussion. Idk why some people get so sensitive about it. Communication isn't this server's strong point, that's for sure.

News flash. Some people kill things on their time. FoH and Venerate did a cease fire prior to any negotiations for this last suspension in good faith. Officers ran about to race lines and guild gatherings to say we were interested in working out a rotation for the suspension period. We were mistaken of the extent at which others really wanted to cooperate. Would that frustrate some people? Sure. Any of you who chose to sit on a race line or bring up the fact that things weren't FTEed appropriately are complete tools. I understand your passion for the game, but it's absolutely ridiculous that any person would choose the types of rules in place over being able to be open and transparent with others. I, personally, don't care whether any of you FTEed any targets appropriately for a rotation time. The only reason you have to follow that crap is because Awakened, Aftermath, CSG, and Rustle play into it. When you know that other guilds and players are eagerly awaiting a chance to petition you over a target, it ruins it. That's exactly how you get to a point where everyone is trying to pin point what rules are being met, and petition appropriately. FoH, being newer, certainly didn't bring about this climate.

I don't recall a time Fires actually petitioned anyone. My personal thoughts on that are that anyone who needs rules set it stone in order to coordinate with others in and open world MMO is on some noob status bs. Some people may be joining this server looking for Pick up raids, reliving targets, meeting and playing with friends. Not to join any of your shit sock guilds. As a gamer, it does make me glad that some of you can take Vulak or whatever target with x number of players, and get better at it. Guess what though. So can Fires and Venerate and numerous other guilds. So can people/guilds who have been on the server for significantly less time than some of you. After 3-8 years on this server, all the bragging kinda becomes "cool story, bro". It's not like classic EQ is the hardest game out there. Get 60, get epic, win. You'd all probably be surprised how little you can kill these targets with if you had the mob uncontested. I'm less mad than I am in awe of the attitudes and mindsets towards a simple game. Like people shouldn't be joining Awakened and then talking about "giving out welfare pixels" who someone like me got their epic for. Derp!

Either way. Fires and Venerate are pretty respectful and tight with each other because we can communicate. Think what you want about us, but it's easier to ask. There is no reason other people can't communicate with us, too.

Amen brother. Anything that's not 100% lollipops and rainbows ends up in RNF or deleted depending on what mood the mods are in that day. I made almost identical posts in server chat twice cause the first time it was deleted for seemingly no good reason whatsoever and I re-posted being as polite as I possibly could asking if mods could let me know what rules I was breaking to cause my post to be deleted. They couldn't seem to provide any good reason so I think they had no choice but to leave it up. Once people started getting BARELY controversial it was instantly moved into RNF and merged into this thread.

Over-moderation has been a problem around here for a while now. I miss the good old days of tits and ass threads and being able to say the F word (Hint: Not Fuck) without people losing their minds.

The thread was copy and pasted to server chat for what you said was "more coverage", it was also a rant.

You wonder why it got merged? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

@llandris should have dealt with the replies on an individual basis instead of moving the entire thread to rnf. It was probably too much work.

Under moderation has always been the problem here, imo. Instead of dealing with the trolling, the default response has always been to sweep the whole thread under the RnF rug. It was TMO's strategy for dealing with valid arguments that went against their interests for years. Don't like what someone is saying? Troll it until the mods put it in RnF.

Now for a little light hearted memery and trolling.
