It's not classic! Wait, it's not?

[Laok]

People keep saying that playing nice isn't classic. Huh?

I seem to remember a rotation that the raid mobs were put on that every guild followed. There was a web site that tracked whose turn it was on a mob. When that mob spawned, whoever was up had a fixed amount of time to engage it or the next guild in line got it. I want to say it was 24 hours. If I remember right, it was also player instituted and enforced (to a degree).

Why can't something like this happen on P99?

End the piles of shit filled socks!

Take turns!

Epics for everyone!

And it doest happen because a rotation only has a 90% apporval rating from the raiding guilds. Can't have a rotation unless everyone agrees to it like we have for the Sky Schedule.

Tribunal. There's an easy way to get the approval. The devs force and ENforce it. You want an equal playing field? The guilds that can hit those targets but don't have the membership to poopsock need to speak up. Small guilds need to ally with each other and be heard. Rotate and share.

Except GMs can and do get involved when it's an issue. Prior to this, GMs refused to be involved in administering a rotation. Now, we'll just have to see. CSR involvement was the reason for not having a rotation prior to this...but with CSR involvement being so high with the current schedule, perhaps a rotation is in order. It can be administered by the server at large with most raid guilds being in agreement. All that is really needed is for GMs to be the hammer when things don't go according to the server's established rotation.

This would go a long way towards levelling the playing field. "Forcing" people to be nice to each other might cause them to actually be nice to each other. When the bickering and poopsocking isn't an issue because it's against the rules (and enforced) there won't be any more issues, well as far as the raid scene is concerned anyway lol.

On Stormhammer, we not only had a rotation, it was on the official EQ website. But then we were "special"

[kotton05]

[Lisset]

We were the Legends server. We paid a buttload extra a month.
