I'm actually get paid right now to go back and forth with you on these 20 year old elf sim forums, can you say the same?

Yes , I'm install home alarms, nothing special but it's a living.

A lot of posters seem to be having very strong emotional reactions to Loramin posting is personal preferences on how the server should be ruled.

I guess when pixels are your life, even a single person suggesting that those pixels be shared becomes a dire threat. But whatever the attacks, my opinion is unchanged.

Look, on live only the "top dog" guilds did dominate ToV, for the entirety of Velious ... but that was one year; the idea that only they should keep doing so here is as out of place the number of OT hammers.

It's simple math: just as there are far, far more hammers here than live ever had (both numerically and as a percentage of the population) this server has far, far more raid-capable players.
Logically it should support far more ToV raid guilds.

We've had Velious for three years now; four in August. Luclin was released on live one year after Velious, and when that happened I guarantee the top guilds on your server soon moved on, letting the next tier start ToV. Less than a year later when PoP was released, a month or two later what level of guild was doing ToV on your server? Hint: not the top dogs, or the guilds below them.

Four years after Velious was released on live Luclin, Planes of Power, Ykesha, Lost Dungeons, Gates of Discord AND Omens of War were released. We've had that much time just in Velious (forget about the seven years of Kunark before). It's time to share ToV and let the project better serve it's purpose of letting a lot more people (re-)experience what classic EQ raiding was like.

Or we can let the welfare zerg guild keep shouting about how terrible rotations would be (for them).

Accuses others of getting welfare pixels
requests rotations so he can get pixels

Requests rotations so a much greater number of players on this server can experience classic Velious raiding and earn pixels by killing dragons in challenging encounters ... vs. a zerg guild handing out participation trophies to the warm bodies that show up.

Why don't you earn pixels by showing up? no one is stopping you?

oh what's that? You want dragons to be up for a week so you can have multiple attempts and no one challenging you? That sure sounds like a free dragon to me.

Please go play one of the many MMOs that are catered to casuals (eq live / WOW etc) and stop trying to ruin one of the last remnants of hard games.

There is nothing wrong with being a casual - but stop trying to make games that aren't casual into one.

Thanks!

Your raging boner for everything he says and does suggests otherwise...
