I'm actually kind of flabbergasted that so many people can't see the overt racism in this thread.

Dude makes an absolutely classless parody name about African Americans, gets gkicked, and immediately comes to the forums and starts railing against...black folk?

BRUH. It's EQ and we all old now but don't be so goddamn obvious.

server had to autobalance teams in the culture wars, the people who were mad at "learn to code" are now defending our healthcare system and AI

Is it just me or did castle fall off hard? Went from fielding 100+ to having to team with Safe Space to get 80-90 and being the smaller of the two forces.

Also funny they are allowed to team and FTE multiple mobs during quakes while using each other's bots (both tags on multiple targets at once) and still be treated as 2 seperate raid entities.

Why would the bots thing be an issue? That's how it's always worked

You don't see an issue with having multiple guilds on the encounter logs of multiple FTEs at the same time? One guild isn't allowed to have multiple FTEs at the same time and I think its generally expected by both players and CSR that when guilds team up that they are treated as one entity. If Castle is engaged on a mob and Safe Space tagged toons are on that encounter log I think the overwhleming majority of people would agree that counts as an FTE for both CA/SS and they are treated as one raiding entity as they chose to combine resources.

Furthermore there are paremeters set for engages to make things an even playing field so for example should a team of guilds be allowed to have 4 coth mages when a single guild is only allowed to have 2 mages on a coth race meta? And then they ultimately team up having doubled their chances of getting the FTE by pretending they are not one raiding entity?

Take it out further and it incentivizes every successfull guild of splitting their tag into multiple smaller entities so each smaller entity can get draft picks and FTEs and then they just combine raid forces to kill the mobs or share resources to double the amount of content they consume. With the umbrella Castle already has that means that Castle, Safe Space, Ancient Blood, and whatever 3 other guilds I can't even name off the top of my head can now have 6 FTEs simultaneously? Even though its really all the same pool of resources and players kill the mobs.

What is this? Logic? I refuse to accept this in RnF. I expected better of you, Warpath.

Are you talking about FTEs across zones or are you talking about using bots from multiple guilds to get FTE on a specific target? The latter is permitted, the former my understanding is that it's generally frowned upon so if you have an issue raise it with the staff.
