Decrease variance so guilds can fte mobs and get on with their lives (some people do need this intervention).

Sounds nice in theory, but in reality it'll just lock to your computer for a series of short windows (playing more) and massively increase competition per spawn (for less loot). I don't think you'll have very much fun.

Cecily unleashes a flurry of posts.

I really dig earthquakes, but I also really really like resets. For a casual guild like ours, having the added time of 45 minutes or an hour to plan/talk with allies/prioritize targets is really a major benefit. We aren't really hampered by the problem of tracking / organizing trackers. The smaller guilds have issues with batphones and just having the coverage 24/7 to log in a couple full geared tanks and enough clerics/rogues to get the job done. We have proven ourselves with the ability to do certain mobs/get close to killing certain mobs with really low numbers or weird compositions... but it doesn't matter how good you are as a player if you aren't big enough of a guild to field 24/7 bat phone coverage. Guilds with large sizes, and a clutch set of hardcore players, i think take for granted the depth of their roster and the multiple characters/accounts people have. To reiterate, its not the windows/tracking that hinders smaller guilds, its strictly a numbers game of how many people you have to pull from that are pre-parked for a target.

i understand all sides of the issue though, and I don't hold it against anyone for doing what they can do to get their people their pixels. It does sorta feel like people should be given a shot to progress as a guild without needing to deal with the absolutely massive time sink for potentially little to no payout. The problem ( and maybe it isn't a problem) is that as soon as you get to the point of wanting to make a go at any of these mobs, you aren't casual. The raid scene is not for casuals and hasn't been since removal of a rotation. The raid scene is above all else "take everything you can get as fast as you can get it".

Earthquakes are a SUPER fun raid dynamic in my opinion. It promotes actual tiers of priority and raiding, involves mustering and getting places ASAP ( also really fun ), and promotes alliances for smaller guilds because taking the mob asap is always better than waiting. My dream scenario would be frequent earthquakes balanced between euro and US.


and no, were not merging, plz stawp.

Reading comprehension never was strong in your guild. Let me rephrase. You're for a change that makes your average camp time for a raid mob on par with ones that drop 2k 3k items. What's worse is that sounds reasonable. Please consider red and get off my beloved server.

BDA aren't a casual guild though, its just a word said so often by them it loses its meaning.

If you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth.

Exactly, and if there are any definitions of true casual guilds its those like Kittens Who Say Meow...not many would put BDA in the same category :/
