What's your point? My experience with EQEmu was relevant as to how I got to this forum since a lot of people seemed to think I just stumbled upon it somehow. Then I was specifically asked.

If you'd really like to point out some truths maybe start by telling us why you're so upset and we can go from there.

I'm furious

I'm not proud enough to admit I actually agree with you 100%. Most EQ players wouldn't survive in high end WoW, and especially not competitive WoW PVP. Anyone who thinks so is in denial or just ignorant due to not knowing what it takes to be competitive.

I have to laugh that you're looking to be some sort of savior on these boards for pointing this out. Shits been known for a long time. This is an old debate. I do have to laugh at you for thinking you were the first or believe you posses some sort of superior insight.

You're wasting your time bub because nobody here cares. They're still going to continue farming fear golems in 2018 and continue to believe they posses some great skills.

Some sort of Elfsim West Side Story?

Sure, why not...

Maybe right off the bat, sure. But being successful in basic WoW raiding only requires watching a few YouTube videos on boss mechanics.

Nothing these poop-socking neckbeards can't handle.

I will say WoW often gets unfairly criticized for being too easy.

Yeah, getting to level cap, dungeons, and LFR are all face-rolling easy but Mythic+ and higher end raiding can be difficult. One person can essentially wipe the group if not careful.

I think he is just trying to point out the elephant in the room that you came here to tell people they need help, which most do. But, in doing that, you've also revealed you came here to help these people, while stalking the forums since 2011. You are also involved in 5 or more shit projects that seem like they had very little social interaction. You've done this several times over with little success - the definition of insanity.


If you're upset people aren't joining your custom content and prefer Project1999, you might want to ask in a less condescending way.

Fucking epic OP :)
Nailed it completely. This is not a skill contest, its a who has no life and can log in at 4 am to kill random 20 year old target contest. Even later xpacs on real eq servers where one person can wipe the raid is trivial with gina and tools like that. The only hard part was figuring that shit out 17 years ago with no instances and actual competition for a chance at attempting killing shit that you didnt know how it worked yet. If you arent in the overwatch league or some other professional organization, you probably should not hang your hat on your video game laurels
