How did I know this was coming. Not only did we concede 2x each mob for that BUT it was something Rampage/Forsaken used to do every week and because half your mages got banned due to some RMT, you decided you couldn't do it so cried about us doing it (when itd been happening on both sides for months) then stuck 2 mages per target.

I agreed to not do it anymore, conceded 4 mobs for it, proved to you it used to be common practice with Ramp and F/A and you still kept your 34 mages there.

Definitely trying to make the server and raid scene a better place!

Hyperbole, yes. Obviously there wasnt 34 mages parked in ToV at a time, variance and all.

Fair. I just think it's unreasonable to point fingers at Awakened over the coth mage escalation when it was obviously a response to FA gating their mage to doubles, triples etc while each guild had their "allotted 2" watching Vulak (concessions included). It's especially laughable now that it's been replaced with foot races.

I'm new to the server, less than two years in. I still know all the horror stories behind TMO/IB lock down of content, the C/R/FFA breakdown and whatever other silly drama that's plagued this 20 year old elf sim emu. It's not exactly surprising that there's bad blood keeping the top guilds from cooperating.

All this over Hosh staffs too...

The thing I can't get over is how many of the people asking for rotations are the ones who had to get brought kicking and screaming into the Class C/R/FFA rotation.

And you're surprised a guild comprised of, as Speedi has said, ex Taken who were consistently told to get good and compete, is a bit confused when other ex IB/Rampage and ex TMO/AM are complaining at them about not wanting to rotate more mobs now?

Maybe if some of you hadn't been so adamant against rotations 2 or 3 or 4 years ago, and had accepted that maybe during 5 year Kunark you could rotate mobs and let people get epics, a precedent would be set to allow everyone to experience Velious content. But no, you wanted to sock Trakanon with 2 full groups ready to engage for entire Windows with 10 people down there, or with corpsed DA Idol stalls or Hoop2Loot.

Don't worry though if they don't go the custom route I'm sure in 2-3 years Rogean will hear the complaints, enforce a Class C / R / FFA rotation and block out ToV, ST and Kael to Class C. Just like was done in Kunark.

I've consistently been against Takens bullshit, not sure what you're talking about. The only "suffering" I did in BDA was dealing with Takens horseshit and watching their leaders argue each other in the R forums.

The BDA I was in wasn't impacted much by TMO since we simply didn't compete against them. I'm sure there was a time before that where it may have been insufferable, but TMO wasn't even on the radar when I was around.

And yes: I dealt with detoxx's walls of text plenty of times. And I think it's really telling that he's being the reasonable one in all of this.

And now we're just going in circles...

Thats the whole point of this thread.

GuildA: We want to rotate mobs!
GuildB: We dont. We like to compete for VP loot.
GuildA: You're greedy, fuck VP loot.
GuildB: Ok, so don't ask for a rotation if "Fuck VP loot"

GuildA: The raid scene is shitty because of you!
GuildB: And when it was you on top last year what did you keep doing?
GuildA: That's beside the point. It's now and it's your fault.

This server isn't the joke, its these forums. Nothing gets solved on P99 forums and history proves that. Keep QQ'ing here so we have something to laugh at while at work though.

By the way, since we're talking about breaking rotations and all, let's talk about Djones going into the wiki and changing Awakened's established Sky day (Thursday PM) to Rustle without even attempting to negotiate a change with Awakened's officers.

Trying to change the raid scene for the better and all, right?
