IB/FE seem to be above the rules and the bag limits this is unacceptable

If you want lockouts and restrictions, join class R. If you want competition stay in class C. It's really not FE or IBs fault TMO has no buddies to raid with. TMO created FE/IB by locking down the content.

Little confused on the bag limit for mobs on repop...

IB/FE raid together on just about every target except for repops, when they split apart and then get double the bag slots as every other guild. Why is this allowed again?

And if it's condoned, can other guilds such as TMO or Taken, BDA, etc. split into 2 to "co-raid" when its convenient but split apart on instances when it's not (i.e. repops)?
The problem with the argument behind this post lies in considering them as a single entity. The fact remains that they are not separate and everyone knows it. When they join forces..they reap the benefits of alliance (more capable) but also suffer the disadvantage of alliance (splitting loot, harder to manage) The converse is true if they choose to raid separately.

I'm pretty sure all guilds are free to enter alliances if they see a mutual benefit. That's the point. They are teaming up to compete with a much larger force, and that is healthy. They aren't skirting any rules in my opinion.

I can't speak for the GMs, because they will interpret rules how they see fit. However, if it was me, this type of thing does not happen often and can easily be handled on a case by case basis.

When it comes to bag limits, there is merit to reviewing the limit if enough players agree it is unfair and provide logical reasoning as opposed to straw-man arguments. This forum is full of straw-man arguments.

The real issue here is it's in some people's interest to create the same circumstances and thus benefits for themselves artificially. This comes with the rules as they are.

This thread is like a twilight zone episode where only Jeremy is making sense and no one else seems to be able to comprehend what he is pointing out.

Being able to decide when or when not the bag limit applies to you by splitting or jointing is not really fair, you shouldn't have control of how it's applied.

They know it's bullshit yet defend it nonetheless because it is in their interest to do so. The only person here from the other side that has acknowledged it needs to be addressed is Unbrella. Props to him for looking towards doing the right thing instead of being an obstinate moran and provoking a stupid escalation.

IB and FE are different guilds. If they want to join forces to compete they can. If they dont want to join forces to compete, they dont have to. If any guild in any bracket wants to join forces to kill a mob, they can. If they dont want to, they dont have to. The only restriction that is relevant is in the case of joining forces each guild would be restricted by the bag limit. If one guild merely helps another guild pull a mob, and that mob is then killed, then both guilds add one to their kill list.

Stop being idiots.
