Really?

Since you so politely spoke right to me, I shall respond!

If we're talking what it takes to "beat" the game (we'll define this as kill the raid bosses), then yes, sure. But what I'm talking about is individual skill.

I would go so far as to say that in my day of stomping the lands of norrath, I was THE best paladin (luckily Karsten had quit at this time so I can make this claim~). I understood the mechanics, abilities, and potential roles of my class and was a motherfucker not to be matched.

If you bring people of this skill together, you can do more with less people. But I've reverted to a fantasy world which no longer exists! I sad now.

I agree with you, quality > quantity. Unfortunately, EQ wasn't exactly designed with that idea in mind. Chuck in a 4 day variance and you're taking a massive shit on that entire notion; but i guess that's a different battle.

One thing that I've noticed since playing here, is that everyone who played Old School Live always says they were the best when they played Old School Live. Just an observation. It's cool. I was so bad ass that Sony asked me to solo the Sleeper for beta testing.

"People of this skill" If you mean people who pay better attention, can follow orders, and can mash a 1-2-3-4 more efficiently, then sure. That is really all it is in raid settings.

Our average raid size last week when we got everything but nagafen was less than 30 people. The same lie repeated enough is still a lie. Whatever makes you feel better though.

I just wanted to quote this crap and give some insight on this. Our "AVERAGE raid" lol! I'd be pretty embarrassed if you brought 30+ to naggy, talendor (72 people), vox, inny (44 people) myself. You also bring much more than 30 for VS, Gore, Sev, CT and Trak. You guys bring massive amounts of people to raids these days man.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on that one, Skippy McSkill.

You must have TR confused with TMA.

loving the super nerds calling other, probable lesser nerds, nerds. The nerds who cry and whine (but of course cover up their actual anger and frustration with smiley faces and lols - lol!!!) over other nerds getting pixels ahead of them are quite clearly the bigger nerds [You must be logged in to view images.

This. I swear I've had the joy of listening to every single bozo and their late stepmother bragging about how they used to be the #1 insert_class_name_here on insert_server_name_here.
