we cleared kunark before you. we beat all the shit and everyone left. IB today is not IB/TR when kunark was released or classic.

we didn't sit around for 2 years hogging VP from everyone else. We beat that shit and moved on. Seeing all the TMO alts lot on last night with best in slot kinda made me sick. IB never had that, neither did TR.

in b4 we beat vp b4 u. nah u didn't Rogean made us give you those first kills, remember? You probably wern't there.

Sodatroll with the realtalk. Hope you're back for Velious, faggot. <3

1) Ib/FE will be doing this on joint raids, so that we don't take up spots/double up on kills.

2) I would propose that each mob has a stickied Kill timer thread in the "Raids Section" of the p99 forum. If you kill the mob, you post its time of death in the appropriate section.

3) The variance was implemented to prevent people from camping out / socking targets. This has resulted in neckbeards socking targets for their entire window. If you call this server "classic" because it promotes competition, you obviously haven't been raiding here. This raid scene is pathetic and has been reduced to whoever has the most button mashers. Lots of servers on live had rotations.

This statement. There's no reason people can't work together and share. My server had one of the best, and one of the most hardcore, raiding guilds out there, Afterlife. They were at the top/near the top of progression for as long as I can remember yet other guilds, smaller guilds and even casual guilds had plenty of chances to kill other things.

Now, when it came to progression targets, that was a little tough. Afterlife was on that shit. But they also welcomed challenge, if someone beat them to it, they would bow out. Not freak out like a bunch of children who just had a piece of their candy stolen from their giant bucket. They also didn't hoard shit they didn't need just to sell everything at monopolized high prices.

The winds of change are here and I'm thankful.

Technically you're collecting pointers. The pixels are just on the client end.

Holy shit, you're going to make everyone rethink their entire lives now.

Except, aren't you really just collecting database entries?

Rogean, we need to know what kind of database is in use so we know exactly what we're receiving for our time. What's the page size, etc.? Any clustered indexes on this table?

I'm hearing some news... hold. Yes yes, apparently TmoSpy has been nuked. How many characters does he have embedded in the beast?

I agree, there are ways that the raid content can be shared. Like every 5th spawn goes to the signup list. This 50/50 split setup solves nothing tho.

[Tuljin]

dozens of trackers parked in every single zone with guild officer access to account information - not classic

massive SMS messages sent through a computer program - not classic

variance - not classic

ventrilo to bark orders at the legions of neckbeards after they've been batphoned with mass SMS who sit in line and wait their turn for months to get a single piece of gear while they are feeding into the pyramid scheme of providing top pixels only to the alts of guild leadership - not classic

other guild leaders/gms sitting around letting all this bullshit spin out of control for 2 years on the same content instead of somehow, over time, multiple parties coming up with ways to break the neckbeard, basement dwelling, log in at any point of the day on a batphone raid scene hegemony- not classic

Well done!
