You're wrong. I love you, but there are rules that would stop this...2 tracker rule who can't fte etc. All you need at that point is "IF guild has more than 3 players at spawn in zone they forfeit their opportunity".

I'm not saying it's the only answer. I'm saying it is an answer and a very simple (and classic) compromise. Turns raiding into a slot machine but at least then it wouldn't be time consuming.

It's Kunark and it's almost over. We have a system of races now that is the funnest part of the game for most of us. Drop the Variance as much as possible and let people race before Velious releases.

This is true. Can't really complain.

or just do what most servers did on live. new content is FFA. once more than 1 guild is killing new content start it on rotation. lower guilds earn their 'shot' at entering rotation by killing pre determined targets. so easy, no drama, no retardation. then server repops are a FFA race fest.

this psudo competition is pretty silly. it really isnt even competition when you get down to the details of it all.

It's insanity

Not competition

the sock has been going for years on this server. The sock has become this server's worst enemy. It has become this entity, this Thing. It can no longer be controlled, consuming many lives in it's wake. Burning down players left and right. Back when we were creating the sock because of fags and their egos, I knew it would turn into this monster. It's never going to stop. Some ahole always has to find some way to get over on some other ahole and pee in his wheaties. It's just Human Nature.

This server isn't even remotely Classic anymore. It's become this mutant version of EQ where if you don't dedicate your entire life for precious pixels you suck at this game.

Pride/Ego is a helluva drug

This is the fuckin truth. I just don't understand how the class c guilds even remotely have fun spending god knows how many hours waiting for pops. The worst part is they don't even need those drops.

Everyone wants a blood orchid from druu for one toon or another, half of PDs table is fantastic, still have rogues needing RSS from xygoz, still a few monks who'd like bo staff from nex (and it sells well too if you're selling loot rights), my own goddamn warrior needs a shissar and god knows how many people want the boots, and my shaman still needs a PE hammer. Still some select drops that are very good out of these places.

VS legs are still in super high demand as are wizard staves, faydedar shields are hnngg, vox drops prayers, nagafen drops bladestoppers (and cofs are nice :3 ), gore drops prayers, tal isn't a super big deal but it's a long pull and we have OT hammers, sev green scales are always needed, trak has teeth / donals, ct has strings / aon / soul leech / gloves, inny has mage staffs (and eyes, lol), draco has bcg, and maestro has hand but that hasn't really been a priority in a long time given it's a fairly common drop and green scales are less so.

Am I missing anything?

The problem is, we are gearing alt armies. We don't need these things. We are competing for alt armies.
