TMO adds Gorenaire to the endangered dragon list

[snow_man]

For those TMO's that aren't sure if they are a guppy or not... Easy question, were you here when TMO actually had to fight for spawns? I'm not talking about toward the end of IB when TMO moved into Prison, Im talking well before that...
Answer = yes = congrats.
Answer = no = don't post about handouts... your a nobody like me and everyone else on the server. Enjoy your free loots =p

If you think for a second that TMO wouldn't be cleaning up every target they want on consistent repops, you're fooling yourself. They might be sloppy now (when they can afford it) but if you start giving them consistent repops and other guilds want to compete, they are just going to use that opportunity to shape up and call it competition.

I might not play, but even I hear how sloppy they've become lately and how they have changed the guild since the lack of competition. It wouldn't take much for them to get back into a serious atmosphere and crush any and all types of "competition"


The problem with the casual guilds is this. You guys talk way too much about what you could or what would be and don't put out any sort of action. You want everything but want to give up nothing. You will never pull out any sort of consistency with that ethic and thus will never challenge a guild that is built like TMO.

The only hope the rest of p99 has is to work together to spread TMO thin. If you don't work together, you're just going to get stomped and all walk away with nothing. There are a few skilled people in TMO and a great deal of people that generally slack at their roles on raids, get them stretched thin so those actions of the slackers count more and you'll start picking up targets and watch as TMO starts bickering with itself.

I dont know about getting sloppy, if sloppy you mean everyone playing alts and tanking bosses with sk/ranger/monks and stuff then sure. But that's really just to try different things and make it a little more challenging. Like clearing sky with 2 groups etc.

Now i am all for more server reset/repops, would see how thin as stealin puts it TMO can get by running 3 separate raid groups at different targets at once. Generally 15-25 per raid. TMO might look like a huge guild, but honestly its like one player has 2-5 lvl 55+ alts. So to field and balance out those raid groups sounds plausible if 60 or so players log in for those resets. The thought sounds like alot of fun... More resets please

Can use whatever excuse you want to explain why the slop is sloppy.

Also, unless those players with alts can dual box them, they wouldn't matter with what I am referring to.

I think level 55's in vp is a valid excuse =)

Heh, I caught a post in there saying if TMO wanted true competition it would split. TMO as a whole doesn't want true competition, there are too many baby fish swimming in their sea of sharks that wouldn't survive without their elites dragging em around and making sure they got their 3am phone calls.

TMO wants someone from the outside to form up something of competition. Unfortunately until more Euro's start to play, there won't be much competition even if ALL of the major upper guilds formed up, because there still wouldn't be Euro time zone competition.

I am quite suprised that more of the TMO Euro's don't break away just to show they could hold down 50% of the kills if they wanted too...but then again thats the baby fish being afraid to leave the sharks lair.

VD was the guild with the strongest euro pressence and that didnt help them. Speaking of euros in TMO they are enough psychos to stay till 5 am to get in raid mobs .

10 people on the basketball court ready to play, but noone wants to take the chance of being on the shitty team.

Being a raid guild leader in the past I understand why. You have a core that controls it all and makes things go smooth and shit gets done. No matter if your guild is 20 or 100 that core controls the ship. More than likely they will never agree to split because they like playing with each other. They can lose 80% of the guild and still be succesful as long as they stay the same. So unless a core member gets greedy then a split will never happen where both teams do well.

Unless the core splits and decides its more fun to compete that way it will never happen.

Rest of the server simply just does not care. Who doesn't want to poop thier bard epic? The one with a wife and kids that do not like to see thier father sitting for hours staring at a computer screen on a saturday afternoon waiting for trak to spawn.

And thats the way a great bit of the people that play casually on this server think. I envy the loot and you can envy my day at the beach [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
