Yeah I looked at your magelo profiles, where vindi gear is your best gear lol. I know what I'm talking about. Raid guilds have a core of neckbeards, these people do the majority the tracking and other bs and they are the only ones full BiS or close to it (oftentimes they burn out). Then there is everyone else. Everyone else is ready to log in only when they get a text message saying there is stuff to kill. Otherwise they are off doing other stuff.

There are just as many neckbeards in casual guilds, they're just doing less productive stuff

Let's not forget about the neckbeards in casual guilds who do track, only to have their efforts squandered by poor mobilization.

Yikes.

Any shitter with a 60 who wants to put up with people like you can get better gear, but some people choose not to. Bringing someone's gear into question about their knowledge on the game or how long an average A/A member is online seems irrelevant. Then you wonder why your guild gets so much flak.

Truth is, for every A/A member that only plays 4 hours a week, there's another who does most of the leg work, playing well over 50. Just because some of your members choose to show up for welfare pixels and not contribute, doesn't mean that's the average or even close to. Hence, your lack of understanding.

Never said it was the majority or made any reference to numbers or breakdowns. My main point was that those people do exist and this is the only server that offers that play style.

You completely ignored the second half of what Ravager wrote (even though you agree that "those people" are the minority):

Why enable the tiny fraction of raiders who want to do that to have so much control over so much content?

Simply because "this is the only server that does *any particular thing*" doesn't mean any particular thing is worth doing. Perhaps there's a reason no other server has (entirely unclassic BTW) batphones?

Agreed. Let's make Sontalak the gateway mob.

[skarlorn]

If you kill Sontalak, you are allowed to join the Vindi Rotation!

Where can I sign on Rivervale Vanguard?

Yes, this server does a fine job of catering to that play style too!

I need you to try to remember the Old days of TMO. No mobs were left standing past 30 mins of their spawn times. TMO took no prisoners and if you wanted a Epic you either paid Millions of plat or joined TMO and put in a ass load of work. That left Casual guild begging for mercy all the time.

Now look at now. TMO is replaced by A/A and even worst, farm crews. Now by all means neither of these are totally bad and i admit does bring a sometimes Healthy sense of Competitiveness but the damage has already been done by the Heavy raiding guilds. You can Leave Eashan up for 8 hours and Casuals will still have to think twice about attempting because, And Dont play me, if ANY guild mobilizes for what looks like an attempt, AM would NOT hesitate to Jump over as fast as possible to kill it. Casuals are afraid of raiding bigger mobs because even the slightest bit of effort gets Blocked like we were in Dikembe Mutombo house. Look We have both been in the position of Casuals and now you are in the Elite, BoTB raiding tier tell me you dont feel like TMO? Like you dont control the server because you cant be contested by any entity?

Tell me thats not true. Ill wait.....

Look Im not saying you should End your way of raiding because That wold NOT be fair to you and Awakened. You guys are beast of your own Nature and should have your moments to Duke it out AL you want. What I believe is that WE THE CASUALS should NOT have to compete against A/A Like a Mom and Pop Grocery trying to open next to a Super Walmart. We deserve to see End game content and Healthy Competition. A Class rotation is the Best option for that.
