Except it's more like' how can we get TMO in trouble so that we can have a week of free raiding.'

The whining to GM's comes from other guilds. TMO rarely petitions raid disputes; any GM would confirm. The only petition I've sent in months is when sev was being actively kited.

That was not the point of my post at all Zeelot. The EQ designers looked at the griefing clusterfuck known as Ultima Online and decided to create a PVE world. Their goal was a giant multiplayer version of DnD. But when the world isn't big enough for everyone to get a decent share of the pie, people start competing. And without actual PvP code this competition takes utterly retarded forms (batphoning, poopsocking, FTE sniping, plausibly deniable training, kiting, tracking etc) and then (fine, only the non-TMO) whining to GMs about everything because the rules aren't enforced by the game.

I suppose any game is fun if you win but I just don't understand how anyone enjoys the raid scene on 1999.
