FWIW Nilbog I totally understand your attitude. People are complaining about a great free service. Rather than take it personally, I hope it just goes to show you how irritating the raid scene on this server can be.
see my post above. and yes end game raiding on this server is quite irritating. I see many people trying out EQC when it drops. I will stay on p99, but I will see how that server is when it drops in 2015. The TMO / FE schoolyard beef has gotten quite aggravating.

Nothing? Sorry that you feel that way.
He's gone off the deep end, but not before bringing up a legitimate point:

The last couple of changes have specifically benefited only TMO/FE.

That's what I'm afraid of. I don't want it to end up as a GM-bashing contest and a bunch of whiny cunts who aren't grateful of the work you guys have put in, but I'd be lying if I didn't have some rather serious concerns that you've ignored for a period of years and the way things have been going as of late.

I don't ever bash GM's, I just see certain degrees of favoritism towards certain guilds on the server that are known for having cheating / RMTing players. They get banned and just reroll character and buy accounts because of the endless amounts of PP these guilds have stockpiled for the past 2 years. And they know about it.

P.S. nothing about this server reflects a true classic experience.
I'm a total snob about classic content and mechanics and they've got quite a bit right here.

And for what isn't right, I think they are at least aware of it now.

The source code they had to start with was.. pretty damn far from classic.

I wasn't aware of the source code being far from classic.

But you're right, at least they are aware of the problems now.

They've been aware of problems before, and these problems in particular, but the only thing that we've seen are changes which are problems in themselves.

I refuse to believe haven't been aware that variance hasn't worked a single day since it was implemented.

Fact: guilds got together and hammered out raid rules that worked for everyone, Fishbait declined(precursor to DA and subsequently TMO)

Do you really expect these cheating lowlifes to do anything that would mean a legit competitive atmosphere?
Harrison, the variance was also hammered out and agreed upon. The players have come together and agreed upon some dumb shit, but yes, there have also been talks that were stalled and abandoned because of a single unwilling party.

I recall it lasting a week before it went to poopsock mode and since then we've had three years what everyone said wouldn't ever happen.

I think if things were really as bad as they're made out to be here on the forums, a couple guilds would have moved to Red and done well for themselves.

Because releveling to 60 is a breeze, right? Not everyone just buys accounts when they want.

Look from a GM point of view. what can be done?

FTE shouts... Harsher penalty for raid interference (train/kiting)... Guild punishments over single player punishments... EVEN LONGER variance or a pre-variance. bout all I can come up with at the moment.
