Well you can Dald, you can get 6-7 in a row before AM loses their minds and starts pulling blatant raid interference and then stamps their feet so both guilds get suspended. Staff just want everyone to play fair and unfortunately have to make examples of those involved in that raid scene.

Until AM learns to accept the loss and improve instead of fighting dirty we will continue to eat suspensions.

What part of your guild was suspended for training another guild don't you understand?

Somebody had a good idea on one of these threads, and I think I agree, that the GMs should adjust the loot and time investment aspects of raiding to 'fix' the endgame.

Even the devs of Pantheon said, when asked how they'd prevent top end raid content from being completely monopolized, that they would keep server populations in check and make sure that there is simply too much content for any one guild to do regularly. I think they should do the same thing here. Make the bosses in ToV permarooted so you can't conveyor belt dragon pixels, make them drop 4 or 5 pieces of loot each kill instead of their current 2 or 3, and make (some of) the trash leash to them. Make it so you have to spend time clearing the trash instead of just sending in a few monks to train everything.

The idea being, you spend the same amount of time getting about the same amount of loot, but you do it killing maybe half as many targets. This leaves more targets up for other people. Your raid also doesn't have 90% of its players stare at a wall while the pullers do everything, thus ensuring more active gameplay for everyone.

I also think it would really help cut down on the trains, since training mobs would no longer be a viable strategy for securing pixels. It would also make it very obvious if someone trained and deserved punishment since there would be no legitimate reason to be training half of ToV around.

Or we could just keep doing the lawyerquest / raid ban thing, I guess.

This is why the dragons were rooted in Luclin [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Whoever Tayyy is.....that’s one salty, biased, and possibly retarded person. I don’t know Henrique well...but it was hilarious seeing Kelz tell him to stfu in ToV.

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope we take this time to enjoy RL, but also find the good and common interests in our enemies.

I, for one have been enjoying pleasant conversations and exping with several Awakened gents.

Thats the thing isn't it. Outside of the raid scene, so many normal A/A members get along fine and have a damn good time, and are normal and generous ppl! This counts for many many other ppl in csg or Ps or venerate or para or whoever that play with you guys in the grouping scene.

When you guys gonna learn that your leadership is toxic to the core ?

I get it, w/o them no pixel conveyor belt. And thats a problem ;P

I feel bad for AW and even AM because honestly, not everyone is in on the shenanigans.

People like to make generalizations, even I do it for effect but it's not fair to label all of AM/AW as pixel frenzied freaks that do anything and everything for said pixels.

There are some very nice people in both guilds.

That being said I wish there was a big shakeup on the server regarding guilds and the raid scene. Maybe more people would partake if it wasn't the way it is now.
