Proposal for fixing the raidscene.

[Tiddlywinks]

1.Remove all non-classic implementations such as variance, nerfed items, allowed training etc.
2. Take a more hands-off approach unless a rule is broken.
3. Let the players figure out how they want to handle classic EverQuest raiding within a classic EverQuest ruleset

allowed training

it's funny, because then you say...

2. Take a more hands-off approach unless a rule is broken.

Erm. Pretty sure this is already the way it is. But without allowed training there's going to be a lot more rule breaking going on, imo.

3. Let the players figure out how they want to handle classic EverQuest raiding within a classic EverQuest ruleset

Tried that already, everyone still cried.

This thread is silly. Stop trying to "fix" the raid scene and wait for velious.

oh, i forgot, box is dying, ship is sinking, 1000pop primetime too low for this box. rogean needs to go down with the ship and flip the switch once everyones in the lifeboats.

:D

also, poll is biased, where is mandatory towerz option?

[JackFlash]

I'd be willing to bet most of the "fix the raid scene" posts are by non-raiders.

I pick towers.

[finalgrunt]

Remove variance.

If by "non-raiders" you mean "people who took one look at the pustulant mess you refer to as EQ raiding or even took a shot at it a few times before vomiting in their mouth and turning on their heels to pursue other endeavors on P99", then you'd be fairly accurate.

edit: You pompous douche. As if your "status" as a raider here means anything but that you've an enormous amount of time on your hands with which to monopolize content on a nostalgia server.

Mad because you didn't have the time in 99 and still mad because you don't have it now.

EQ is a time sink. Why wouldn't the people with unlimited playtime have the most pixels? Changing the rules isn't going to help.

BTW I don't raid. Look at the guild tag beardy.

I had a blast with EQ in 99. I eventually landed in a "casual raiding" guild with which I was able to experience a large amount of content... never on the bleeding edge, but I had fun. Here, I can't even believe that people could regard raiding as "fun" with a straight face.

EQ is a time sink. Why wouldn't the people with unlimited playtime have the most pixels? Changing the rules isn't going to help.

Why do they need/want a constant, neverending stream of the same fucking pixels? I can only guess that they relish in being exclusionary. Yes, this angers me. I don't want more rules, I want less douchebags.

BTW I don't raid. Look at the guild tag beardy.

Good for you - I leapt to conclusions based on the snark. Maybe you would raid if it didn't require a 'round the clock commitment. Imagine...

P.S. - I do wear a full beard. And I only shave my neck about once a week.

Get rid of the casuals that ruin the raid scene with these posts. Towers.
