Tanthallas & doraf & "hard-cores" in general
Quote:
Ask yourself - why are we in this current raid crisis? Let me tell you. We're in this dilemma because the casual players, for the most part, are individuals who enjoyed EQ when they were younger (and presumably, had less responsibilities in life) and have returned to re-live that experience. This "experience", for many of us included actually killing raid mobs and actually seeing our own character with their epic!! We could care less that other players out there also have good gear - in fact, many of us probably encourage this kind of result. Alas, the good players of this community have come to realize that this "experience" is not nostalgic at all. Instead, our enjoyment has been obstructed by a bunch of narcissistic, immature real-life bottom-dwellers that regrettably gain happiness from preventing other people from being happy. This behavior is not conducive to the type of server Rogean had in mind. Let me explain something to you (this is directed to the "hard-core" crowd), since I know you don't leave your poop-cave very often. If you're a member of TMO, I have come to the conclusion that you are either: A) A leach to society. That is, receiving some sort of government benefits (wellfare, disability, etc...) or living off someone else (living in a basement eating your mother's home-cooked meatloaf). If this is the case, and I'm sure this applies to many of you, so listen up - you are receiving "free handouts" in real life and have absolutely no room to talk. Take a few hours to mull this over carefully, open a dictionary and find the word "hypocrite" and then come back and start acting like a mature human being. B) Someone who actually has a real job, and in rare (but disgraceful) cases has a family. If this is you, realize that you are legitimately addicted to a video game and consider seeking professional help. Seriously. I could elaborate on this one, but just thinking about people in this category makes me break out in tears and weep. C) A high school twit, in which case please, for the love of god, go back to playing on your X-Box. D) An extremely old person who literally has nothing better to do with their time. If this is the case, then by-golly I apologize for my rant. The world isn't going to explode if other players start getting their epics, competing in VP and killing Trakanon. Quote:

And yes, for the record giving the "casuals" a fighting chance to receive their epics WILL make it better. You probably forgot what this felt like after receiving your 5th epic. Quote:
I think that I'm correct in assuming that Rogean is operating under a utilitarian stance. He is trying to make the greatest number of players on his server as happy as possible. As it stands, TMO/FE/IB represent a minority of the server population. He's more concerned with making everyone else happy than you guys. This is perfectly logical. You're lucky I'm not in charge of the servers. I would send all the "hard core" players to another server where they can battle it out amongst themselves and leave the casual players on this server.

Shit's too long.
Will you just shut the fuck up whoever you are. We're probably going to come to an agreement soon so the hour it took you to type that retarded shit out is totally wasted. Kill yourself. | ||

I actually read it, I want my time back. Can't wait to see what this new raid agreement looks like, I just want to go back to raiding sky every night. I could give a fuck less about dragons that will be insignificant when velious drops, if it ever does drop (servers looking bleak these days.)

The unfortunate thing is that neither the T1 nor the T2 guilds are actually advocating for a classic EQ end-game.
T1 guilds want a no-lifer paradise where the most time-invested players get the most loot, in direct proportion to their time investments. T2 guilds want a communist rotation where everyone is handed a few dragons every so often so everyone can enjoy the end game. What should be is a reversion to classic EQ rules where T1 guilds literally cannot monopolize the raid scene because the rules don't benefit massive zergs or no-lifer trackers enough to prevent competition from T2 guilds that invest far less time and compete with significantly less members. This would allow every guild a fair opportunity at every mob without any hand-outs, but it would also prevent T1 guilds from winning 95% of these opportunities because being the most invested simply wouldn't be that enormous of an advantage. | ||

I kinda of advocated in my post in the raid forums for EQ CLassic style variance (incredibly minimal), but that would require either Clickquest raiding or rotations and we know people don't like to share here so......

Classic EQ endgame is impossible with a single server stuck in the same expansion for 3 years.
