To FE/IB: poopsocking dont pay!

[arsenalpow]

So FE/IB sit at VS on their characters but TMO awaits the batphone to log on their characters that are also sitting at VS. You're both tethered to the computer at the mercy of the all hours batphone. You aren't going out into the real world, you're trying to convince yourself that being on an alt, or tabbed over doing something else is conceptually different/better than being in game. The bottom line is that whatever else you're doing you will IMMEDIATELY drop it to login and face roll your keyboard to "compete." Your primary task is always to login and slay the monster for pixels, just because you're on an alt, or netflixing, or cybering a man doesn't change anything - deep down you're still poopsocking but please keep arguing semantics.

It's six of one, half dozen of the other. You're both idiots and this will only fuel an escalation of tactics, fire and brimstone coming down from the sky, rivers and seas boiling, forty years of darkness, earthquakes, volcanoes, the dead rising from the grave, human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria.

Chest, we know you're fucking stupid, but cmon. The same principle for covering tracking applies to covering attending raids in general. We have lots of people from all over the world, so no one person needs to make every raid.

Yes, I understand you have a large roster of no lifers to pull from, I will not dispute this.

The definition of poopsocking is sitting on the game, waiting for a mob to spawn SO MUCH SO that you must in fact...poop in a sock. Camping a character and going to work / school (in my case) means that i am free to poop in a bathroom. GG

FE/IB camping characters in game is no different than what TMO has done to the rest of the server. We've taken raiding to a more ridiculous level by actually having a raid force on hand, which is probably how other guilds view TMO. You guys track mobs and camp out raid forces, which other guilds don't. I'm sure they'd like it if you didn't camp out your raid force at mobs, just like you'd like it if we didn't camp a raid force inside VS. Sometimes it works for us (as shown by our numerous kills recent) and other times it doesn't, like with VS today.

I do think it is hilarious that a guild that has merged numerous times, raided with 60+ people, and has been farming the same content non-stop for 2 years to the detriment of everyone else on the server is complaining when someone else utilizes a tactic they don't like. As people have mentioned else where, DA, which at least on P99 is the raiding successor of TMO (if I remember right TMO literally didn't have a single kill on the server before merging with DA/Ascension/Fusion) was the guild that popularized poopsocking as a tactic. You guys used poopsocking to get where you are now and "drive IB off the server".. but now it is a lame tactic.

Poopsocking was happening long before DA was around. TMO had kills prior to the merger including a VS kill. Stop defending poopsocking it isnt healthy for either guild/any guild.

TMO made some scattered efforts to get raid mobs pre-Kunark, but they weren't very successful and they didn't really try that hard. They used Kunark release as their push to go hardcore and managed to put up some fight at times then. TMO didn't become a real contender until after merging with the remnants of DA. Comparing current day TMO to DA or old TMO is totally pointless though, the similarities are few and far between. The overwhelming majority of modern TMO was never in DA or old TMO. The current raid guilds and tactics are a product of everything getting more and more ridiculous on the long term.

Don't really have an argument, I just find it annoying when people don't even know where this all came from. Shit, I've known Zeelot, Loly, Necrious and Fazlazen since long before most (probably 90+%) of today's FE or TMO ever killed a dragon on P99, and all four of them have been around significantly longer than I have.

Gets vs first time in weeks, makes a thread.

Merkk is losing it.

[Rellapse35]

I have great memories of poopsocking VS.

I encourage poopsocking anything that gets a grp of nerds together to have some laughs.

Sitting camped out with toons spread throughout the world does not appeal to me.

EQ is bout dem pixels and peoplez

Sadly majority of Tmo hates Eccezan and Alarti and probably other annoying non factors so they choose to just play an hour a week.

It doesn't matter really because chest is not relevant to this conversation.
