Can you please clarify which guild on P99 is capable of clearing sky but does not currently have a slot in the rotation?

The guilds who go every week have a reason to. There is no point in holding a rotation slot if you aren't going to use it but once a month. Just set those slots to ffa and then you don't have to worry about people not on the rotation messing with other peoples days

That's your opinion. It is also completely off topic to the point of this thread. Start your own thread.

This thread is about greedy guilds that are Velious-ready (represented so far by AG and Rustle) going up on the nights reserved for more casual guilds and clearing island 1, ultimately disrupting their scheduled raid nights that they are running every week and not leaving sky vacant. So in retaliation, the casual guilds are killing OoAs.

They have no shot at nobles. They don't go up on off-nights scheduled for other guilds, and they don't participate in clicking on empty air in order to get FTE, so they don't have anything to lose.

I'm okay with this. I hope it continues as long as nobles are a luxury reserved only for people like Rustle and AG.

I kind of laughed when I found out hydra was killing ooa, good on em. The funny part is the casual guilds are usually doing the full clears and playing as intended (aside from corpsing, plz remove this for keys and lore items Devs) and can lap back to 1 easily if a noble pops. They aren't doing 2-7 corpse drags. Really wouldn't be a problem if noble was ffa if no guild is up there, but if someone is raiding let em have em.

I mean sky is deserted most nights anyways.

I'll chime in here: I know quite a few of the particulars involved here (including the guy who started the thread) and I don't think any lower-end entity is killing Overseers just to mess with other guilds. In my experience the lower-end guilds on P99 pay very little attention to the politics that exist amongst the high-end guilds. They do, however, know that their members generally need items and there are only so many available targets.

Clearing isle 1 prior to another guild going up sucks, but I don't really blame anyone specifically. It only sucks because of the zone's inherently poor design. Be polite and buy keys if you aren't there for a traditional zone raid. Likewise, if you go up, bring platinum so you can progress even if isle 1 happens to be clear. Plan ahead and fewer problems occur.

The amount of misinformation and lies being spread here is astounding. I'm surprised this thread is allowed to exist outside of RnF.

Do you have any examples of these alleged lies?

Ok, I raid with BHP, but am a member of Azure Guard. I have gone to the majority of BHP raids for fun, alternating between my main and alts. I can tell you first hand what goes on at their raids.

1) The raids aren't lead by AG. A few friends and I go for fun. We do not have any part in the decision making. Whoever started that post is completely misinformed.

2) That I know of, 2-3 total OOA's were killed. After speaking with the raid leader, I'm not sure they fully understand the rotation on OOA's, and I couldn't explain it because all I knew was that most guilds agree not to kill them. I think they were testing the waters to check out if it was ok and if it affected at all. I can't speak for them as I am not the raid leader, but knowing the people, I doubt they will continue to kill them after seeing this post, making the initial points of this thread moot.

What I am interested in is there are 5 OOA's. Does this mean there are 5 linked nobles? Or does the one noble continue to pop as long as 1 OOA is up? I still havent seen an explanation for this.

I also wanted to point out this gem from the Azure Guard recruitment thread:

C. Rules and Regulations
There aren't a lot of rules in AG. AG is a borderline roleplaying guild in that we expect you to not only abide by the PnP, but actively be a nice player to others, particularly lower level characters, and to be a good steward of the blue server. We want to be a positive force on the server, not a neutral or evil one. We're not looking for lawyerquesters or people trying to push the line on what's legal and what's not on P99. This is a social game and if you're looking for pixels at any cost, we're probably not what you're looking for.

Emphasis mine. Looks like they need to do some house cleaning on whoever made the call to snipe island 1 from other guilds and the people defending them in this thread.

At least Rustle has owned their bad behavior, but those guys are sociopaths and have their own issues.
