you do realize the yellow text was put in so players could police themselves and behave better upon a dragon being engaged in front of a zerg of guilds. just a graphical representation that is avail to avoid confusion....the GMs still have the power to look up encounter logs and point out who has legit FTE according to the rules.

what occurred last night was the very first instance of a dragon being killed without a 'legal' yellow text, something that has never happened since the autofire/tracker rule update

Your flowchart became null and void soon as new rules were implemented and changed the fact that sometimes a FTE shout is not actually legit FTE.

What occurred last night is far from a novel occurrence. It is no different than if a guild who had more than two trackers got an FTE. If they continue with the pull, they'll be breaking the rules. It takes a strange leap in logic to conclude that since the guild in front of you broke the rules then there are no longer any rules.

The chart is valid. Please consult it next time.

What happened here, Taken?

looks like Noble RNG machine where Cecily beat us

then a Taken warrior dumped a mallet into it for some unknown reason ( tho your warrior should have dumped his mallet already :P ) and pulls aggro

then it falls tru the island like many Sky mobs on our lovely server do, summoning the Taken warrior under the island......then summons the rest of the aggro list off the island

After camping out, resing, and Noble taking years to reset.....Taken did not contest Noble after he returned to the spawn point since you guys had the first engage and we did pull aggro to put Noble in a position where he fell tru ( not intentional of course )

Grats TMO on Noble cycle?

fast forward to 26

listen closely.

month suspension for flippie? I mean... the precedent has been set right? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Simplest solution to any sort of shennaigans is to remove as many variables from player control.

So why not -
Spawned mobs = C/R - no FFA
Earthquakes = all FFA
Bag limits = up for review, I'd say 2-4, altho I probably wouldnt mind none

I mean, classic EQ was all about mobilizing fast, not engaging mobs 0.1seconds after they spawn under heavily controlled scenarios with 2000 rules attached to every buff, movement, etc.

This system would create 3 tiers of advancement - the protected Class R, the mobilization focused FFA, and the instant-engage Class C.

+1

but I like bag limits for our server, I think they have been a big factor in why sim-repops are so much fun for every raiding guild

Agree wholeheartedly.
