"Since when do casual guilds not put in the same time and effort?"
Casual guilds do not batphone or show up at raid bosses when they spawn. That is the distinction between a casual raid guild and FE/IB/TMO etc. This is a time and effort commitment put in by the players who have the desire AND the circumstances in their real life schedule to be able to put in the playtime to get what they want. For the sake of the argument you can call these guilds "hardcore guilds".
Why don't casual guilds do this? Because many of them have schedules that means they can not be on call to jump into norrath at any moment. Which leads me to:
"the players stay up little past than what they should for work and what not." "Also the game is 14 yrs old! Most of you guys were not even working then, just young guns playing video games for fun and had all the time. Why should one particular force be better just because they have no life?"
There you go. If you can't log in when a mob spawns, then you need to accept it. This is how its been on the server since the start. Obviously you have a schedule that prevents you from committing to a hardcore guild. You are playing a videogame that persists when you are not there. Just because a majority of people can not commit like that does not mean there is a problem. Not everybody needs best in slot raid boss gear.
"Time invested does not mean better rewards on P1999 my friend."
Time is the most important thing to be successful in classic eq. This is a grind heavy mmo where you grind for nearly everything, not an online fps shooter.
These threads have showed up for years and its the same rehashed bullshit.
If your guild can not show up at mobs with numbers and can not batphone, then you need to accept it.
