I knew that, what I was wondering referred Troll's mention of 're-joining'. I had no idea Hoku was a BDA elder when Chest got there.

I don't want a rotation, they don't work.

What would have been nice is if an 80+ VP keyed guild stepped out of the old rotation though and stopped pretending they were a casual guild, while simultaneously shitting on casual guilds who wanted to join in.

I sure the hell don't remember 80 people on any VP run I was in. I don't remember it ever reaching even half of that.

But that aside. You do remember why the Gorenaire entry restriction was asked for, right Swish? How come when you rant about the destruction of rotations, you always neglect to mention that guilds were double dipping it, taking their own spot and then "helping" another guild that couldn't do it alone in return for part of the loot?

You always seem to leave that part out.

I didn't say 80 people went on VP raids, I was making the point that BDA and Taken had plenty of keyed characters that could have done VP raids and could have gone to Class C.

The rotation should have had some kind of progression system involved in it. After X amount of Trakanon key pieces a guild should have been required to step out of R and into C.

Why do that though? Better to berate a leveling guild wanting to join the rotation and discourage them from doing so because you want to go for the pixel grab and feed your own zerg guild, right?

And that's where the Gorenaire part came in. Chest and pals knew that you had to (at the time) have a zerg to really get it done...why would a casual rotation require 24/7 around the clock coverage? When that started to be a requirement you can see why casual guilds across separate time zones would help each other out.

What does a casual guild mean to you? To me it means a guild of raiders who aren't in top gear, don't have 80+ VP keyed characters, and don't have 24/7 raid coverage.

The size of BDA/Taken in terms of numbers was ridiculous so they played the rotation their way, and later on got mad that Europa/Omni/AG banded together to keep the pace. That's all they could do.

Also never forget one of the excuses for being cunts about it...

"We're getting ready for Velious raiding guys"
- Chest


aaaaand where are they now? Off the server because they can't compete at the level their gear suggested they could [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
