An idea too settle this whole skill level dispute thing

[Chanus]

Is it really surprising the top guilds are comprised of mostly shouty asshats along for the zerg ride?

All puffing out their chests and talking a big game, but unwilling to actually get down to it?

Maybe a handful people in any of the guilds actually knowing how to do things properly, but due to the climate of poopsock==win, their knowledge is all but useless?

[Versus]

Don't mind me, I'm just a 25 monk, but here is my 2cp. And note: I don't know the guilds too well yet, but from what I gather, it's IB vs. DA.

Anyway.

Competition? Poopsocking is all part of it. It's about making the rival guild fucked out of content. That is still competition, even if it's lame. It will never be fair. Why would the lead guild want it to be fair? They want to remain the best by any means necessary. However, I have seen the pendelum swing for whatever reason, and the second best guild becomes the premier one. Shit happens, people leave, you never know.

TL;DR - Will never be fair. #1 vs. #2 will always be rivals and do anything to fuck one another.

If somebody wants to have a poopsocking contest on the test server than more power to them.

Personally I think a raid contest on the test server sounds way cooler.

It's a shame you didn't actually read the idea. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That's cuz when it's all said and done, the so-called big elite guilds are nothing but zerg numbers. Raiding 12 year old bosses that were killed 12 years ago in every way imaginable by different combinations and tactics that required trial and error back then is just repeating what's already been done hundreds of times, with different guild tags doing it now. I like your idea, but obviously the pompous wind bags claiming they are better than everyone else can't be asked to prove anything.

You are mostly correct. It is IB / DW /Panth!- Vs. DA

One thing i dont notice much or any of is DW comming in here claiming "they" or there guild got a server first. Lets get one thing straight this was two guilds trying to take out the 800lb gorrilla that is DA. that is all.

Plus Pantheon, aka the peanut butter & jelly in the middle of the sandwich! hehehe

i mean how else do you think we all killed THREE BOSSES IN THREE HOURS!?!?

I read it. And I don't think there is a shot in hell it will ever happen. They are trying to put Kunark on the table. It's too much to make different levels PvP in different zones on PvP nights, what on earth makes you think they will open an entirely new server to play these "instanced raids" games? You're dreaming brother. It's a good idea, but the likelihood is stupid low.

New server? I would never suggest such a thing. The test server is right there for people to use. All the old world bosses are working same as they do on the live server.

Sorry that I thought you didn't read it. It's just that you wrote TL;DR so I took it literally.

[Versus]

nah, I was referring to my own post with the TL;DR.

Either way, I agree with you but it probably won't happen. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

They could always just split into a 3rd power guild and be less powerful. That's a good idea, right? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

i was thinking about going on the test server so that i could have a shot at EVEN VOX
