That happens now, don't kid yourself. It will happen on rotations too.

I'm pretty sure there wasn't a single GM involvement issue the entire time we were in rotation before. There were also several joint raids and general cooperation while people were only required to play a few hours a week for raiding

There's no first to engage rule bs. You can be ks'd in ffa, so there's nothing to enforce.

Indeed FFA means anything goes. No first to engage, no camps, nothing. Players figure out their own way of dealing with one another. Just like in reality. Why do you think EQ in 1999 is an immersion unmatched by the graphics and gameplay of modern mmorpgs? Why did so many return after so long.

The world doesn't restrict your reaction with it and other players. You can ruin your faction with your home city here - in EQ you pick a side and you can't even kill your own guards. You can get faction with races that start out hating you. There is a sense of severity to it all in that one must make serious decisions about the path one takes in the game. This is no different than our interactions with other players. We have factions that aren't measured in numbers in a computer system. Why can't we act on them?

in EQ2 you pick a side and you can't even kill your own guards^^^^

When you had a rotation you cried out for FFA and no GM involvement "let the players duke it out.

You got your wish, now you want a rotation again.

The grass will perpetually be greener.

Where did I say that? Specific people have been screaming for FFA since before anyone was even raiding, nothing has changed there

Man, thanks for bringing this up though, there are some classics buried in here and some I haven't even seen

Well looks like rotation was the original solution. And it also seems to be winning every poll that's posted.

For better or worse that's what the majority seems to be in favor of.

Sadly, good ideas go largely ignored.
