There is another total coincidence that has also correlated with a higher frequency of petitions: Riot, for the first time in its existence, is losing some cycles and are bitter as fuck over it. Instead of the leadership in Riot stepping up and welcoming the competition they are filing 18 page legal briefs for why they have been wronged. I've seen some of them, and I'm still reeling from the cringe.
As always, Riot membership are generally cool as fuck. Riot leadership is failing its members and the server.

I'm not in Riot, and I can say pretty unequivocally that raiding was better after AM fucked off to go on permanent BBQ sabbatical, and has been worse since they've come back.
Example: Post-Green release, during the late fall 2019/early winter 2020, mobs like Eashen, and Ikkatiar were left untouched so other guilds could take a shot at learning the encounters, and even (heavens forbid) get some loot that would otherwise be unattainable.
Meanwhile, the first thing that <guild> did when it came back was trash the first golem race agreement, and snipe the sunday-afternoon Vindi that had been left up for (at the time Stream Team) for months. He's not a raid mob, after all - kiting him around for 10+ minutes to deny Stream Team was a mature, adult, thing to do.
I'm not , pretending Riot is without fault - they're certainly not. The zerg, being hungry, had a tendency to inhale almost everything. They can be condescending. They acted like they were benevolently dispensing favors when they would deign to let someone else have a thing. But the outsider's perspective is that they were more of a good-faith operator than <whatever you're calling yourselves these days>. The fact that in the face of that perception your reaction is essentially to say "no u," is telling.
Here's hoping Kunark on green draws you all back for BBQ round 2. |
