Wrong wrong wrong. TMO was the exact reason for the poor raid scene on P99 and they were the direct result of all the major issues today. As stated by the staff, "It continues to be an aggravating realization among CSR staff that 10% of the server population causes 90% of the problems. We are all for competition, but it needs to be fair competition. We are also all here for the same thing, to experience classic Everquest. The same guild monopolizing raid content for 2 years that they might not even need anymore is ridiculous, just to block other guilds from the chance of gearing up to take on the same end game content."

That said I find it hard to believe a Taken member would look so kindly toward TMO, when you guys got shit on many times by TMO and IB/FE for that matter because IB/FE were all being dicks indirectly because of TMO shenanigans.

TMO monopolizes raid content end of story. You can't defend that or them. If you do then I feel bad for you as a member of Taken guild.

I'm not 'looking so kindly toward TMO' per se... I am merely being realistic about the fact that the Raid scene on P99 was a cut-throat, winner-take-all-and-fuck-everyone-else scenario long before TMO became top-dog..

I can understand why they would see no reason to be the ones to change that.. Is it selfish? Does it suck? Does it screw up the server?.... Yes... But that's the way it's always been... and not just here... It is the prevailing attitude in any number of MMO's where that kinda behavior is tolerated.

As long as we're making historical references here.. consider this...

Throughout history, whoever had the most powerful military took over everything they could, without pause or remorse. The Romans, Britain, Spain, France, Russia, the Dutch.. etc subjugated basically the entire world at one point or another... and if any one of them could have taken it ALL.. they would have.. it was understood that this was just the way of things. There was no shame in it.. There was no such thing as a fair-shake for anyone. If you weren't doing it to others.... Others would be doing it to you..

But times changed.. and we evolved as a human culture (though some would argue this point).. to the extent that this kind of behavior isn't tolerated anymore....

You can't fault those nations for attempting to succeed in the atmosphere they found themselves born into... change came hard... and slow... but it did come..

This is where I see us now.. on the verge of change.. at least I hope we are.

I'm not somebody who was here on day one, but you are just adorable.

Not everyone plays the ForumQuest, get a clue.

Not to derail a delightful thread about European politics, but so far the raid agreement has worked well. A few key things that stand out in my mind were:

Guilds in VP alerting each other when kiting see invis mobs / moving their raids

Guilds communicating during the server repop

Allowing the first guild there to finish their engage in a reasonable time before showing up

A generally friendly global chat with many congratulatory remarks on downed bosses

I'm glad everyone was holding hands and kissing

TMO didn't really get nuked, they got wounded and Zeelot definitely committed suicide with his post the other day. Definitely Nazi Germany.

IB, however, got dealt a blow by the staff big enough to make them move to another plane of existence. Nuked, son... nuked.

2 week raid suspension, 86 accounts at least temporarily banned, looks like most of the trackers are gone forever, I think that qualifies as a nuke here.

Eh, sounds much worse than it was.

86 accounts temporarily banned, out of what 700? Lol. Anyways we are working on making changes so we can compete without people being such sad pandas. Expect major announcements in the near future.
