Yeahhh, the lower tier guilds aren't going to be devastated that they're going from almost none of these targets to literally zero.
Well if you'd rather not get anything, so bet it. Way to seize the opportunity to guarantee yourselves mobs.

Nah, I believe in rewarding teams that put in effort. But I'm also highly in favor of guaranteeing you guys some mobs. Especially ones you need to complete epics (hint not in VP). I think them locking down Faydedar, for instance, is ridiculous at this point... or Innoruuk/CT.

It's very easy to see me also support the top 2 guilds and categorize me to an extreme. However, I try to remain objective and fair.

Fair isn't raid mobs being left up for 2 days. Try to understand that in EQ, raid content was designed for a top % of the player base. Try to understand you have been in Kunark WAY too long, but, also for a good reason. Nilbog and company have taken time to circle back after adding that necessary extra content to fix a *ton* of glaring mechanical issues/non-classic content.

Maybe a halfway done Velious release that is kind of messed up isn't the worst thing that could happen. If rampage works, fine do it. If you can drag a person who is KOS to claws of veeshan/yelinak past dragons for a little while? Okay fine. But the problem here is the # of players and content. I don't necessarily blame a top guild for trying to secure best in slot loots from the loot pool available. Cast your bias aside and try to realize what I've been advocating.

Top guilds can not compromise on the monopoly they have created with the assistance of modern technology, and lower tier guilds do not understand the philosophy of rotational content/no competition.

Needs more middle ground.

Oh, it's certainly an improvement over the current state of things. I just think you're kidding yourself if you think that the casuals are going to be the ones hurting during an armistice. They've been playing like this for 2 years; what's a little longer?

Beyond that, I agree with most of what you're saying. Believe it or not, casuals like competition. The race during the forced repop was a ton of fun. We're just oversaturated with raid guilds and the fact that casuals are getting stomped by batphoning alt armies for gear that they don't need (in everyone's opinion but theirs, of course) is disheartening.

Designated hitters from each guild have to play a league of legends bracket tournament to decide mob rotation per week. Winner gets first pick 2nd gets 2nd etc until all mobs are accounted for.

Wins losses on a point system for future seeding.
