Really when it comes down to it all the problems of raiding on p99 are due to new technologies that allow people to tell the entire guild its time to log in.
On live in classic you just had to wait to have enough people online so it wasn't always attack the spawn as soon as it spawns.
People always equate the raiding and whatnot to "everyone knows the content" that isn't it at all, everything that makes high end the way it is here is due to the batphone. But there is no way to stop it now, its too bad.
So whenever your annoyed at raids, remember, its all the batphones fault.
f u batman!

uhh.. poopsocking is sitting on a spawn until it spawns.
batphone is texting everyone after a pop and mobilzing to kill that mob..
two very different things really.. i would think you would know that brew.
poopsocking justifies batphone
batphone justifies poopsocking
brew!

Even if you're sitting on the spawn, people go afk etc. A mass text just gets them back to the keyboard quick so that you still don't have to sit there watching. meh cellphones!

On the flipside, it means that you can now camp out your main, and go do things that aren't sitting logged in at your computer waiting for named to pop.

technically, even 10 years ago, hardcore guilds, had most everyone phone number to call in people when needed - cel phones were all ready around full swing

It wasn't much of an issue on live because people knew when things would spawn. With the variable spawn times here (too keep things interesting/competitive) it's necessary. It would be the same thing as if they just went through a call list (as has happened on live), it's just faster.

The batphone has actually caused the death of poopsocking. Get it right.

First 15 poopsockers win the dragon do they not?
Why would batphone be more efficient than having the first 15 chillin (poopspsocking) infront of the spawn?
Sounds like a bunch of blues being jealous that 15 players can hold a spot prior and longer.
