Really easy for the staff to just make a forum post that says raid content is now rotated. Sign up for slots here.

No headaches, except for the people with pixel withdrawal.

P99 is inherently flawed and there is no perfect system, nor will there ever be.

Not sure why the raid question even gets brought up anymore.

A CSR got fired so now a bunch of nerds came out of the woodwork to discuss how it makes perfect sense to overhaul a combination of the programming and rule set of the server. Pretty simple, really.

I thought it was to loosen up the current neckbeard agenda.

It does appear that way at first glance but if you look far ahead into the future it's definitely not going to be the case.

I think Getsome was the one that started it in the Raid Forum.

Could I join AM, be casual, open my mouth and have a silver spoon of pixels force fed into my mouth while i just sit afk/ logged out until someone else plays the competition game (fte/pulls/batphone)... Sure. But that sounds boring as hell. That sounds WORSE than rotation/instanced content to me. Could i be a competitive member of AM/Tempest? Sure... this game is more about game knowledge and time investment than skill. Anyone can do it. I just have a job/life and can't be on call 24/7 for elf pixels.

I might as well continue in a casual guild filled with friends and actually be a part of learning the fights, competing when we have time (with healthy boundaries for things like jobs/wives).
Currently only able to play that way seeing a small % of the content in the game (AM is still 24 hour socking CLASSIC raid mobs? really guys??) because A) I don't wont to be a cog in a dumb zerg guild and B) I'm locked out of the other content because i'm not up at 4 am in tov with 200 people logged out ready to pounce.

Current system is a joke, being defended by sickos (the "hardcore" people who want to compete by un-classically pulling dragons sometime in their unclassic 16 hour dragon windows [seeing who can track mobs 24/7 all day and night isn't being good or winning a competition, it's being mentally ill] ). Current status quo is also being defended by the warm bodies who see other guilds getting a chance at content a threat to their free pixels.

If there's not a change in the raid scene on this server then the majority of people in the top guilds [not the sickos] will continue to be do-nothing warm bodies happily content with being spoon-fed 20 year old content, smaller guilds with real lives will continue to be locked out of most of velious content. Could i go play another server if i don't like it here? Sure, point me to a server that is classic everquest/velious and has healthy raiding... I'm not sure one exists yet.

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.
