Seriously what a joke.

As for Rallyd, seriously your exactly the type of dishonest dipshit I'd never play in any game. You can choose to believe this or not but we're not all asswipes (like yourself) in IB. Oh noes, you know how to play a warrior... can you learn to not be such a numbnut? Probably not. I bet if Trans (for whatever reasons) went down under you'd be the first one to jump off the boat to save your fat ugly ass. So let's stop with the BS, you tried to join the top guild and failed because we gotta draw a line somewhere in terms of getting genuine pricks like yourself.

PS: Go F@#$@ yourself thanks.
PPS: Sorry for the minor derailing of this thread, I support random boss spawns~

Could go back to Nizzarr's old suggestion (which WAS awesome). Rotation, 1 hour to engage & kill upon spawn. If they don't, it's rotated through the people waiting.

Ex: Server goes down, Naggy pops. Divinity shows up and prepares to woop ass. They engage, Rhalous trains spiders & beetles on raid. Divinity wipes (1h has elapsed). IB has been waiting at Trannix spawn (with a group of 14+), run up, engage. Naggy summons clerics because tanks are AFK, IB wipes. Trans comes up next, because they got there right after IB (with a force of 14+). They engage, and kill.

Now.. Naggy goes back to rotation. (omg and we just had CLASSIC competition!).

Imo.. Spawns on server down is 100% classic, and a VERY CLASSIC part of raiding back in the day. (and lets face it, the server doesn't go down once every hour like it used to, so it's not like there will be a TON of spawns)

"Divinity shows up and prepares to woop ass. They engage, Rhalous trains spiders & beetles on raid. Divinity wipes"

ROFL.. Dammit Rhalous, you have killed us on our Naggy raid that we haven't had yet!

[vinx]

spiders and beetles srsly? and IB tanks afk on engagement? rofl where is everybody!

i do like that idea of a random patch day boss in a rotation, or just make ALL the bosses on some random timer where first come first serve comes into play.
would mean you would have to mobolize your force quickly anytime theres a spawn.
(there would be 30 new rangers on the server)

The only modification to the already near perfect rotation setup that I would support, is lowering the FFA timer to 12 hours instead of 24.

I come from Rallos Zek, we had rotation there, on the premiere item loot PVP server. It always worked, very effectively, and was player enforced. Obviously it sucks for the lower guilds trying to get in, but there was NEVER an issue once kunark was released, there is enough content in kunark and classic for several guilds to always have something to do.

Competition is NOT for 11 year old content guys, it really isn't. If you say you came back for competition then you're probably playing the wrong game.

Furthermore, lowering the FFA timer to anything lower than 12 hours would be like basically removing the rotation totally, everyone knows people can kill a boss at 2 in the morning where nobody has the force to get on at that time. This is why they had euro servers, because the time differentials can't compete with each other. that would mean you have til 2 in the afternoon to engage it, and hell let's be realistic here, we're not all 12 years old in middle school anymore.

We have lives, kids, families. If you wanna waste everyone's time waiting for a mob to spawn, then you maybe are still 12; psychologically.

I fully support Divinity entering into the rotation.

Now you're getting the idea! The only reason we needed a rotation was to prevent GMs from intervening due to KSing and camping raid spawns. If there are clear rules about how long you have to engage, then you will be given a fair window to attempt a target uninterrupted before the target goes FFA.

I love the 1 hour idea. Guilds will end up camping the spawn like they did in classic to avoid blowing their protected window, and the guild that can take advantage after that window has passed will be rewarded.

Don't ever play chess. Seriously people need to stop saying this. From now on the people who realize this statement is retarded, just go with "chess" as a response.
