Yeah... so... any rotation would be player not GM enforced and there is absolutely no incentive to let another guild in that isn't causing massive problems for one of the two current guilds. Welcome to fantasy island etc. if you think otherwise.
I actually had to re-read your post a few times to understand what you were saying because it was so unclear. I never argued that other guilds should/would be let in on the rotation. I'm just talking about a rotation between the server's two most competitive guilds. To be honest, I highly doubt a guild other than TR or TMO will be willing to waste their lives poopsocking Trak so you don't have to worry about needing to let another guild in on the rotation.

The result would be the same since both guilds have gotten roughly half of the Trak spawns since TMO and Ascension merged. The only difference is that other guilds can attempt Trak and TMO/TR members don't have to waste as much of their lives staring at a spawn point.
This is so silly, it puts all your other posts into question. If TMO and TR setup a rotation, it just means they're not poopsocking Trak. It doesn't mean there won't be a tracker there that'll notify the guild whose turn it is that Trak has spawned. Trak will die in 10 minutes instead of 20 seconds of spawning.

Guilds like Divinity, Taken, VD still will not have a shot at Trak unless they go out of their way to poopsock both TMO and TR to force entry into the club. I highly doubt any of those guilds have the members willing to spend weeks doing that to cause TMO / TR enough grief to give up spawns.

well into velious.
there will always be need for new alts/apps to key up and gear up

mobilization died with live EQ people! if you havent noticed this server is all about the veterans = a reason to prove yourself or your experience = more drive to endgame

nostaligic play only lasts until your level 50 or so then everyone wants to dominate like they did before or better (prove they actually did) or they want to experience content that they couldnt before and willing to conform to the servers situation to do it.

In a way socking started out as part of the mobilization process..
1) gather pots/clicky gates
*batphone*
2) camp at spires/rings
3) camp outside zones
4) camp at spawn and wait for your party to show up and clear for safe login

steps have been eliminated 1 by 1 until we are left with a full group/guild keeping the spawn area clear = fastest mobilization = most boring method
but get used to it! its not going to change if you want that boss bad enough and have another guild with the same intentions
you will skip steps 1-4

This is what DA did last time. Spam invite, start poopsocking, blame other guild for it, then cry about poopsocking they started.

Learn to mobilize.

dense..
your DA obsession is clearly affecting your umm.. you know what?
your post resembles the nearly 691 other posts you posted, so idk how that is relevant to this or any thread
actually i take that back, half your posts are about vztz so i guess this post resembles 345 other posts you've posted
you have 2 crusades going on and they are both getting.. well this isnt RnF..
anyway,.

Mobilization may work on lesser targets (in your world harrison) but as i stated before everyone in a raid guild here is veterans.
everyone knows what targets are needed/wanted and they know the time it takes to key up a full guild for a zone rich
in dragon loots like VP
so to answer your "learn to mobilize" - you wont ever see trak on mobilization status during kunark.

and to ramble on some about the rotation, a rotation would be very risky for 2 large guilds that want VP access..
rotation = longer key route.
in a rotation you basically open up the possibility for other guilds capable of killing trak (but dont like the poopsock)
so, rotation now means less than the 50/50 that your guild is currently getting..
it may be split that way on the calendar between the two warring guilds, but your still looking at months of work
now your squeezing in another 1-3 other capable guilds in for 1 kill = longer key route for the 2 contesting guilds..
and with the intense rivalry and history of IB/DA (not so much TMO) its very unlikely you will see an agreed upon rotation.
(or one that is sustainable for very long)
so basically, the only real way for other guilds to get keys is to step into some socks and join the slumber party.

I know there are at least 2-3 other guilds capable of trak, but refuse to participate in this sock method,
so talkin about a rotation as if only 2 guilds would be involved is pretty lol
even mentioning rotation will get other guilds to step up and try to stake their claim


on a positive note:
our timeline here is slower then live, so there is a possibility that other guilds start getting trak by velious.

Why would it be a bad thing that more people get VP access? Aren't we all friends here?

I don't understand you people at all.

i think you're playing the wrong game. this is everquest, not ever-oh-hey-can-i-have-a-key-to-the-best-loot-dropping-area-in-the-expansion-too? you need be faster or at least be more diplomatic than the rest.
