Harrison I'm going to play this one objectively, because I seem to be someone here that can do that.

IB appears to have had the cheating upperhand and a brave TMO member (allegedly, I'm not sure on this) decided to bed the red headed land monster in an attempt to fight fire with fire.

The results appear to have been that a cheating guild was run off the server or was otherwise done with farming content (probably valid honestly) and didn't feel like continuing a now "even footing" war of attrition.

So... Harrison, being a good problem solver it would appear someone needs to find a way to do the same. It's called winning. Now, when you go this route, sometimes things can backfire.

For instance, you discover the source of the exploit and out perform the other guild in replicating it. Then, one of two things happens.

1- you become the new guild in charge and it is some how swept under the rug with the other guild leaving
2- the GMs slam you and not the other team for current/prior offenses and you take the server population down with you

Either way, make sure you get your runed mithril tunics on the way out.

Have fun trying this shit with Sirken. He will grumpy cat face the shit out of you if you try to buy him out or bang him.

I find it amusing that some people think I have no blue history.

[Hasbinbad]

Oh god I love you Shiftin.

[Hasbinbad]

You've reaffirmed a little bit of my faith, and my heart grew three sizes this day.

[Hasbinbad]

I've been doing my best y'all. :P

We absolutely went and got hoops after the first time tmo hooped, and we got the next 2-3, but we did not start it.

I have no dog in this fight...but did feel like responding to a few of the things I breezed over.

IB didn't exist during actual live. Many of some of their original core that I knew of were in a guild called Inner Circle on Xegony, though, including Xzerion. They did well, had some server firsts for sure though I couldn't tell you which because Alliance (VS/IS/SoA) had a majority of them if memory serves including Vulak and AoW. I could be wrong, I was young as shit.

As far as the 'hooping' goes...sounds remarkably similar to the clusterfuck of DA idol camping when sky was being cleared for the first time through the massively tactically and utterly skillless combination of mage pets and sitting while invulnerable. Whorish, skillless item exploitation isn't novel.

Howling Stones worked pretty well when I beta'd it. Much better than the other zones I was in, actually. If you want to whine about mob HP level vs. exp mod, that's another argument, but it was functional. CoM and Karnors were clusterfucks.

And that was with resist poison and shadoo stacking etc? Oof.

When're we gonna see Trak Touch porting invuln players? Would be tite.

Jeremy, despite my position of owning your ass repeatedly, I'm not your daddy, and you don't have to ask my permission to point out anything. Acarer was an app though, not a core member.

And then he brings up the compass.

Shit doesn't sound classic to me, I highly disapprove.

And I know you weren't using the tinkered one before you say anything.
