Some Questions About the UN and Federation

[Zoggren]

0/10 shitpost full of logical fallacies. Why don't you just say what you really want to say, coward.

[Fammaden]

You have no idea what you are talking about and at least half of your post consists of you not understanding the things you are attempting to discuss.

In reality, Seal Team is dominating this server's raid scene and bullying all of their competition and Kunark is only going to make that worse, not better.

I'm glad that Seal Team is around. They are the only guild on the entire server that has morals and standards. You don't just hit level 46 and join Seal Team's raid group. It takes most people months to show that they are dedicated. Meanwhile every other guild on the server spam invites everyone over level 46 without having any clue who the person is or what they are capable of, and then they wonder why their guild sucks dick.

Can you imagine how terrible the raid scene would be if a guild like Black Lotus was at the top of the food chain?

You need to go somewhere with your nonsense. I am in Black Lotus and I promise I haven't wronged you, but your vagrant spewing of slander is offensive in general not even taking up for my guild in this 20+ year old pixel game. You are part of the problem big guy.

Careful, Private First Class Stolen Valor might make more nonsensical posts.

Gotta give him a break, he is posting from an undisclosed forward operating base on 3G from a Getac ruggedized laptop while under fire from enemy paintballs.

Epic trolling to pick on the Joe guy is bullshit also fellas. I have no beef with anyone and I definately don't tolerate bullies IRL nor condone them in pixel quest. Wake up and stop being such shitty people. Compassion is so rewarding but unattainable for minds like like the ones who typed your posts. Don't waste all our time with your posts please unless you have any substance to your message other than belittling ANYONE. Nonsense Recondito Joe whatever regardless stop being douchebags

RJ you cant imagine the kind of slimy, finger pointing train wrecks I've encountered along the way. Maybe you can.

The goal of the UN is to try and regulate things a bit so every single 8 hour spawn isnt a piss and shit fest for the GMs to sort out.

Things are a lot better than they would be otherwise. Don't forget to come to the public raids every month and celebrate classic MMOing with your fellow pals. It's not all cringey WoW xpacs out there.

To me they are true American heroes. How many guilds can say they were founded by Chris Kyle? I've give you a hint: The answer is only 1.

Re: #2 - You miss an important point - 7 day targets - (Vox, Naggy, CT, Draco, Inny, Maestro) are not controlled or scheduled by the UN or the Federation. Those are all "First To Engage" (FTE - race to kill targets). Seal Team gets almost all of those. So for question #2 - ST has those mostly locked down because they track for thema nd mobilize and move in and terminate them quickly when they spawn - and ST is still a member of the UN.

I think what you are referring to is the Federation (Group of various separate guilds that are also in the UN) that tries to pick one or more 7 day targets to race to kill instead of Seal Team. I assume they are not strong enough as individual Guilds to take down those 7 day targets - so have formed this NATO alliance type Federation to get enough numbers and strength for when the 7 days do pop.

So for instance the past 2 earthquake / server resets this past Friday morning and Sunday ~ 5 AM - I believe Federation tried or got one or two of those 7 day mobs - and ST took out all the rest - 2x.

Occasionally - once I've seen - an open raid is held on some 7 day targets - I assume ST just allowed this by leaving them up as a gesture of charity or something.

The schedule that the UN sets up with member guilds (including Seal Team as a UN member) is the "Planar Trash", Tranix, and Phinny. Those are not 7 day spawns - they re-pop every few hours and can be setup on 8 hour blocks by the UN. That content is put on a rotation - by and for - those in the UN.

Those Guilds not in UN are not bound to follow any of those UN schedules and those mobs are fair game for those that camp them and/or first to engage.

Footnote - there is apparently a "local server rule" - not part of the posted Play Nice Policies that I see - that the FTE 7 day mobs require a raid (guild or Federation) to totally exit zone once it pops. The raid must then move into zone and engage the Mob. (Race and FTE gets the fight) So no camping 100 people just outside of Naggy lair waiting for it to pop in its 7 day random respawn for example.

Re #1 - My '99 experience was the top guild locked down the top content on the server and pretty much excluded anyone else from getting a chance- once Kunark they mostly moved to locked that down - but would still take out dragons if available. "Competition" is misleading term when the 2d place guilds rarely got a chance to learn the encounter to even become "competitive". YMMV
