A Concerned Citizen Writes...

[Joroz]

everyone has a different view on why they like eq, from tmo's posters they think everyone has the same view and dedication to the game as them. the dedication is great if that's what you want to do, but for the most part the raid game on p99 is just not worth the time to play that style. taunt, brag, humiliate, dramatise, etc that won't change anything at the end of the day, most people are grounded in reality and will remain opportunistic in the game to do things on their own time.

raid scene on p99 is like a sand box. currently its littered with pieces of shit everywhere. some people overlook this and play in the shit filled sand, but others avoid it because their tolerance isn't the same. if a clean patch of sand is seen they may jump in and play for a while. eventually the pieces of shit will be removed or new sand will be added. but the sand box is only so big so it will fill up with pieces of shit again as long as people keep taking shits in the sand.

My only beef?

Not having the opportunity to pick and choose ANY raid target, since it's under the control of one guild.

That is all.

This about sums it up. TMO wants people to play in the shit-filled sandbox with them but everybody recognizes it's wise not to play in the shit. Either more sand or less shit should remedy the problem (more raid mobs or less hardcores)

Y'all need to stop rationalizing that the only reason you aren't smoking the shit out of VP every week is because you don't want to put that much time into the game and admit that although it doesn't take a videogame virtuoso to play p99 well, it takes a hell of a lot more than raw hours /played to do what TMO is doing.

I play maybe 3-4 hours a week and keep about 35-40% attendance.

Says the new recruit that joined tmo for there loot rots... Maybe if you were with them from day 1 your responses would be reconigized, until then, shut your mouth and stop talking like you earn loot.

I don't even know why I'm replying to your troll, but:

1. My time with TMO is not relevant to my discussion of the "time is all it takes to get raid kills" argument that people throw around on these forums all too often.

2. If I had joined TMO just because I wanted loot, I probably would have sold my account the second I got my epic and then twinked out another character with the proceeds.

3. I actually joined TMO because it was the best place to accomplish my 3 p99 goals (make level 60, see all the raid content I missed on live, get my epic) and because I got to know Kelendil and he suggested I should apply.

4. I entertain no delusions of granduer of my position in TMO, I just try to level when I can, track when I can, and attend raids when I can, and the loot council decides whether I'm deserving of loots, rot or otherwise.

Myyystrooo, come on. We lack bards..Are we not supposed to pimp the living shit out of a new member of that class. Not to mention he earned them by having a stellar tracking history and put in more work in a month than some in half a year. Granted he was not there from day 1 but he has at least a view from how TMO works from within and can reply to people's assumptions better than any of the many forum theorycrafters.

First off, my comment wasnt a "flame" or "troll" or whatever the term is these people use, I don't fly like that.

Second, it's good to hear he's doing work and not just leeching like some/most people do. But let's not make posts about how to progress a guild or tell people how to progress a guild and do things when he's a app For a guild that has already finished end game content.

On another note, I'm Glad to see another TMO bard doing work, Looking forward to beating you to the dragons once were up and running full force again!
