As it was said months ago in another thread it appears Taken is to TMO now such as VD was to IB... simply nothing more than a feeder guild who is their little sibling taking advantage of their big brothers way of doing things. Though TMO doesn't have to leave a mob up at all, if they want these other guilds who had nothing to do with VD actually respect them (for improving rather than dismantling the raid scene such as the guild prior) then helping another guild of casual/lower caliber isn't exactly smart because then they are doing the exact same thing IB was doing with VD to try and delegate mobs.

I don't think people are upset at the simple fact that they got involved, just the fact they got involved to the point of picking the guild they wanted to be rewarded when others felt as if they were on a level playing field. Doing the exact thing for Taken (multiple times mind you) that they hate and still hate VD for which was leeching off of IB... seems just a tad bit hypocritical.

The time I snagged sev for Taken, i think TMO might of had 4-5 people on Sev or healing. Taken did all the damage and was free to take all the loot. Not sure how Talendor played out, but it looks like TMO did exactly what it said it would do.

Considering TMO's past workings with Taken and how things work out well between them (without having to do everything for them like IB did for VD) I am not surprised TMO assisted Taken.

When something is spawned and you race another guild, you don't have time to debate about who is doing what with who. You choose what is most likely to work and go with it. Seems the obvious choice would be to work with Taken.

Grats Taken and sorry others feel so slighted. (well not really, couldn't give a shit less if you're sad you didn't get handed loot tbh)

I don't think anyone feels slighted because they didn't get some crappy lewtz.

I think they feel slighted because all the 2nd tier guilds felt like they were competing for something, and wasted how many hours/days tracking, so you could come in and hand the victory to taken.

If you never would have said the mob was being left up, nobody would know or care about this at all, would just be another taken/tmo kill.

It's the tease that is annoying

So you are mad you didn't get the crappy lewtz.

Guess you'd have preferred rock/paper/scissors for the crappy lewtz?

hmm, maybe you'd rather TMO not have worked with any guild and just killed for itself? Slighted because Taken was chosen over another guild (your guild)?

I'm sorry, just seems that you're pissed about loot really.

I think he is saying that he bought into your "charity" and expected other guilds to take turns trying to kill the dragon.


He is upset that you broke your "word", although you did post a disclaimer when you started this charity campaign saying you could break it at anytime.

I'm not sure why anybody would expect anything else heh

The not true was obviously added in by me as can be seen by screenshots... however the other bold text directly quoted doesn't quite match this video Talendor Kill considering it seems TMO vastly outnumbers Taken as it should appear obvious without TMO Taken would not have gotten any loot/kill. There is no problem with this, however trying to put up some sort of facade as if they aren't your version of VD or your relationship with them isn't similar to that of the IB/VD is wherein lies the hilarity of the situation. I am sure your other line will end up coming true as VD begins to try and raid again, the one where you imply that Taken would get all the targets if you wanted it that way.

TMO members have all said it... you don't really need loot and it is going to waste on many kills so you are bound to help stack the guild/players of your choosing which so far is Taken. The exact concept IB used with VD, so let's not pretend otherwise.

IB had a different use for VD. The only people that seem to not understand what it was is some TMO, all of VD (save a few), maybe a few IB apps and the entire rest of the server who was clueless to everything.

TMO doesn't need Taken at all, not even in the slightest. (nothing like the IB/VD "partnership")

I pulled Sev, I was there for the kill and watched as it was killed. TMO had very few in zone and it took awhile for Sev to be killed. Also, all of the loot was had by Taken. Not exactly sure what you mean by "not true, i've seen screenshots".

The Talendor situation is entirely different than Sev. Sev Taken was prepared for and we assisted with the pull and tanking/healing (if any tmo were assisting with DPS it would have been minimal). Talendor, from what i've heard, was going to be killed by VD or with the assistance of VD and that is why TMO did what it did.

Pretty sure if VD had stayed away, then TMO would have as well. The fact TMO gave Taken the loot was most likely due to prior experiences with them being pleasant as well as a few other factors I'm sure.

The only other obvious factor is that people are jealous and upset over loot. If TMO had choosen BDA or Divinity to give the loot to, that guild would be defending while others bitched and moaned about not receiving the goodies.

So, QQ more little short sighted homie.

This ^
IB/VD formed to compete against TMO...otherwise they had no chance... and as it has shows still had no chance. TMO allied with Taken to be friendly and to stop VD from interfering with our "endangered species list"

The point of the endangered species list is to allow the casual guilds, who normally would have little to no access to raid bosses, a chance for kunark/classic raiding.

Whether or not VD has the power/will to compete anymore will be decided in in the coming weeks. However, if any one guild starts dominating the "free mobs" then it defeats the purpose of the idea. Enforcement might be deemed necessary.
