BDA private member forum screenshots <NSFW>

I rarely venture into rants and flames because honestly it usually settles nothing. However I was pointed to this thread via our guild chat and would like to clear a few things up. We were going to attempt Tal yesterday... NO GUILD (Focus on those 2 words) stole anything from us. Our Bard went to check out Tal and got in his aggro range and died. We were still waiting on a few numbers to show up or log in to have a reasonable shot at Killing Tal. We may have tried it with the numbers we had if we were buffed given the situation of the 2 other guilds running in...But we would of died because we were completely unbuffed at the time. Which means it was us not being ready that lost us the target and not the fault of any guild running into the zone.

I personally correspond with several BDA and TMO members a lot before we attempt things as a guild and they are usually very helpful with information or encouragement. Simple thing about that situation was....We weren't ready to engage and we had plenty of time to engage before any other guild showed up. We simply lacked the numbers to do it. This makes it our fault for not engaging given the time we had. Not TMO's and not BDA's. Thanks.

I appreciate your post... but it was obviously TMO's fault.

Good luck in the future. A suggestion I might have is during future repops maybe send a tell to a TMO officer on your intentions so we can avoid it like we did Inny.

Obviously this doesn't apply to things like trak/vs/ct etc stuff we still need on alot of mains.

But he it wouldn't hurt we purposely saved fay and Inny for last since we knew other guilds were going for it.

Never said you needed to read anything, just that you do. The competition BDA provides is as fair as you, TMO, make it; as Chest pointed out about Fear. Boasting about "wanting competition" and then training another raid proves how hollow your words are.

I've read your post about three times trying to understand your reasoning. Are you really suggesting that TMO is responsible for the fact that you can't kill anything?

I don't see much arguing over pixels. What I see is TMO bragging and BDA making excuses. Before I was in BDA, I thought there were two sides to this story and maybe TMO really was full of cheating jerks. After seeing it in person, I realize that BDA has many unskilled players and weak leadership. In my guilds from live, leadership would be trying to improve player skills and making replacements if necessary, not blaming the other guys. BDA's membership is indoctrinated to claim that it was TMO's fault even if they have no idea what actually happened, even if they weren't even there.

Oh, there's that matter of getting level 60, too. Most people reading this probably don't realize that BDA only has a handful of level 60 characters. At any given raid, 80% or so of the BDA turnout will be blue cons.

Let's get a couple things straight:

1. BDA is still mostly casuals, and will remain that way.
2. BDA isn't as hell bent on getting raid mobs as TMO is, so yeah, we miss a lot of kills.
3. I'd consider myself a fairly active member of the guild, and I don't even remember you being in the guild. So take that for what it's worth.
4. I don't understand why you feel compelled to jump all over BDA every time you get the chance. Sorry things didn't work out with you. Lots of change going on in the guild for the better, and we've had a few unfortunate losses as a result. Hope you weren't a victim of that.

maybe it was during your 2 week break?

Oh and good luck with your changes(seriously). If people in your guild listen to you over people like anthrax BDA will have a shot at competing.

Hello random_troll, I am suggesting that TMO says they want competition, but acts like they want control. I can say this over many months of pulling dragons, kiting fear, and poop socking against them. How much experience do you have with or against TMO in the raid scene? You are vastly similar to the knixs and nietches of this server, so eager to talk about something you have no experience with.
