I trained your mom in vp last night!

Deals have been made in the past; training was only allowed because TR wanted it that way, at the time they were top donators.

TMO earned/clawed its way to the top, douchehoff99 is just all about band-wagoning the server vs TMO because hes a cry baby bitch rich kid in RL sick of not getting his way in the elf pixel simulator.

So either move on or get with the program and present a challenge to TMO or petition for a name change and app to join; some how doubt your scummy ass could make it through the app endeavor.

Posted this in the GM Rulebook thread as well. These threads fill up with crap so fast all the post where people are actually giving suggestions get totally buried.




I think if they are dead set on keeping the training aspect in that some sort of rules should be added to it.

Such that if you wish to train a guild that is going to attempt a VP run you have to have your VP raid force outside ready to move in. If you have no intent to immediately raid VP then you shouldn't be able to send in people to stall or grief.

I just think training shouldn't be allowed at all, it wasn't on live. Unfortunately though the guild on top seems to favor a less competitive raiding scene filled with griefers and people who just want to waste time.

Sure, FE and any other guild could band together and join forces against TMO's training-army in VP. But why? Why should folks have to utilize a non-classic raiding mechanic to compete fairly on a server? Why should training be allowed in VP and not in other zones? I mean, the rulebook clarifies Planes of fear/hate/sky as non-CSR as well right? These are questions that a large portion of the playerbase wish were answered and/or addressed.

nothing's wrong except YOU. Rules are already established, they won't change because you're failing. Make a guild with these 250 people and go in VP, earn your pixels instead of whinning on every threads


For you to say that its just one player or guild who doesn't like the way things are here is just ignorant. Sure, server population is up right now but its been at this point before in the past. The same thing always seems to happen, a new wave of players starts and levels up, then they quit when they realize what raiding on p99 has become. Its a never ending cycle that's been going on 2+ years now, and until stuff is fixed/changed it will keep happening until velious is released.

To me, the raiding scene would be way more fair and competitive without the presence of training. It's gotten to the point where training outside of VP is rarely enforced. For example there are hundreds of fraps of one specific person continually training VS pit, admitting to it in /say and laughing about it, and going unpunished. How long should any guild be expected to put up with stuff like this without atleast fighting back by breaking rules themselves or simply giving up and leaving the server like IB (the last guild who was on top besides TMO.)

Stop being ignorant and take a look at the bigger picture here.

I think training should be allowed in VP to prevent people from spawn-socking the dragons there.

Yea training is stupid and shouldn't be allowed... but it is and probably will be left in so there is less work for the GMs. But the griefing that can be done is ridiculous I would never want training to be allowed in other planes because far too many people have access to those areas and if someone just FEELS like being a dick with intention to raid they can just go train a raid that is trying to do work whether it be a fear clear or a Sky raid.

So since this mechanic is clearly here and they don't want to drop it totally then why not find a way to modifiy it without add a TON of extra workload for the GMs. That is why you should have to have a raid outside the zone you are training ready to move in and kill.

So let's say that guild A wants to attempt VP on a server reset. If guild B wants to train guild A they would need a force ready and waiting to zone in and move on the targets in order to train guild A. Guild B would be forced to prioritize VP over any targets that are outside of VP. Yes guild B can split it's force but that would still open up many targets to other guilds who are NOT vp capable as the smaller force that is sent for outside targets "shouldn't" be able to monopolize the enitre raid scene.

with the current situtation guild B can just split its forces and hit outside VP targets while sending a few members to train/kill/delay any force that decides to attempt a VP dragon on a repop day. If no other guild attempts VP on a repop day then yes guild B may still monopolize outside targets but that's because there is no pressure on VP.

You can clearly see who the 9% on top are with the adderal and cocaine earned pixels

and the 91% of the rest of the server that has a normal life
