I know it's always fun to talk about how the rotation fell apart, but it took two to tango. Maybe BDA/Div/Taken were being unreasonable, but the smaller guilds weren't making it easy either. That doesn't really matter now though.

I don't think so. A-Team made a tremendously reasonable proposal. In hindsight I don't think BDA and Taken should ever have been allowed to go Class R.

contrary to the bleatings of certain RNF trolls IB/Rampage won.

Just think, if you guys had spent all those hours on a real job, you would have won at life instead of emulated everquest.

I'd join BDA if I played on the Phinny server.

I was kind of mad at Chest about the rotation ordeal, but I was kind of mad at everyone for not playing nice together and compromising in the middle, including the small guilds. I was kind of mad at BDA leapfrogging A-Team on Yael once by parachuting in before we engaged.

Other than that, BDA has always seemed pretty reasonable to me.

I don't understand why you have this hard on for Sirken. I would have done things differently but I think Sirken is the only member of the staff who is actually trying to improve things, and there is only so much he can do without the keys to the repop machine or the ability to alter the game mechanics.

The root problem IMO is simply that P1999 is reaching the end of it's lifetime.

Velious has been out for months, ST was farmed then Sleeper was woken. It isn't reaching the end of it's lifetime, it's reached it..unfortunately.

The feeling of teamwork and accomplishment during raiding did not die with Velious. The competition you seek was always there in TOV before there were Sirken races, but even so success still requires alert raiders and not drooling zombies. Maybe you should come to Fear one day and try for CT.

Also it's really odd to see you eulogizing training half the zone in one sentence and then decrying it as the death of raiding in the next.

Training is Okay and completely fine if you control it. Backwash always hits people in ToV and that's illegal. I could kite fear and old hate for hours until people left the zone. In ToV you have no control. I'm very transparent and very consistent.

Yeah CT looks like a lot of fun. Certainly something I'd love to get involved in soon.

Everyone started class r by default, there was no "allowed". Killing a class c mob is what made you class c. With or without the rotation, the class system worked as scripted.

I've read on rerolled that XP is same solo as it is in groups yes? Making it actually slower to solo? Kind of a deal breaker for those who can't even duo.

Yea solo xp sucks compared to groups. Kind of a good thing imo.

We only did it because it was hilarious.
