I've had guildmates doing groups, have this happen to them, call in reinforcements to drive back the neckbeards. Stole a few solid AE pulls from the top guild's scumbag group who just came in an hour before and did the same thing to some casual group. Karma is a bitch.

I've had other groups memblur and manaburn our named / epic mobs before. Likewise we have timed up some great memblurs and Nukes to KS other groups named mobs who did the same shit.

I've been trained and I've dropped mobs in less than ideal spots.

Not once did firing up a petition cross my mind. Why? Because I'm not some little bitch who needs Sirken to sort out my Upper Guk lack of mobs. Rethink why you're on this server if you feel it necessary to petition for camp disputes. You are what makes the server awful. This behavior permeates into the raid scene and poisoned it completely.

No rules is the best. Yes the fat neckbeards benefit from this but it allows the regular normal people some immediate recourse if they so choose or you can choose to turn the other cheek and not sink to their level. But atleast in a no rules scenario that situation is left up to you. Not some random EQEmu GM and Guides.

I've always been a pretty nice player to others in the game. But it's nice to play on a server where if one person or group or raid decides to be a total shitbag towards you, you can retaliate in kind and make them regret that choice. I never start shit, but I sure as fuck will finish it if you're some dirty neckbeard.
sounds like we have the same mindset sir. i wont fuck with you, but god help you if you fuck with me

You really need to read this with Simpsons' Comic Book Guy's voice in your head the whole time to truly appreciate the implied menace and sheer tenacity behind his convcition.

Yeah, but the logic is rather impeccable. There was some continuity issues because you did not specify which guilds you belonged to, but otherwise, a fair post. If in good condition, I would easily grade is a B-

It's helpful to a point, but too many rules creates situations where the staff has to mediate every little thing which poisons things.

Basically this.

CSR should exist to fix issues with stuck characters, broken quests, rot corpses, and deleted/lost items.

Anything camp or raid based should be handled by the players themselves. As much as you hate on A/A for their driving of the raid scene, if there were no rules you could attempt to muscle them into a rotation. No CSR VP was no problem cause 32k dragons die in 30 seconds. But when you've got Vulak in camp, any little train can mess everything up, and it's going to be impossible to countertrain for the duration of Vulak.

I'd love to see the casual guilds become terrorists and hold vulaks hostage for the ability to raid on their schedule. At the very least, it would greatly improve the state of RNF.

Bubbles, your avatar at a side glimpse always makes me think at first it is MM's boob-avatar. Then I notice, it's not. And I am sad. But, cute ducks. They are ducks, right? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

too many rules also creates incredibly unclassic shit like unrooted dragons, fte, racing, etc. etc.
