I wish people would just shut the hell up and realize there is no solution to this problem. There will always be someone stronger, bigger, faster, more organized than you. Always. TMO was it...may still be it...who knows. Im glad you guys reorganized...for the record. There are lots of very good TMO members, good people, who I have enjoyed knowing, I dont hate your guild. What you are asking though, in a very very generalized sense, is for our VOLUNTEER, guides, GMs, Devs.....the list goes on......to give up pretty much all of their real world lives, to police the state of our raid scene. Without such policing there will ALWAYS be a top dog, because that's the way things work. It's life, and life in pixel form is still life. Can't be fought, can't be worked around. I read all the posts (god there were so many) on the TMO exploit thread.....and all I could think was....WOW. How do you guys NOT believe this will always be an issue. Reduce variance....zerg guilds just camp harder. Increase Variance....zerg guilds just camp longer. Enforce a rotation? Zerg guilds spread their alts into other guilds, new names, same times, same strategy. There is no viable solution. The people who run this server (and I love you guys, you do a damn good job) are volunteers, they profit nothing from the time they put in. Let....Shit...Be. If you want a raid mob, tag along. If your guild wants to co-raid....ASK.
We are all grown people, I think...most of us. This is just a game, we all..or most of us...want to excel at the games we play, I'm sure. Mediocrity is noones benchmark. However, not all of us will be willing to put in the time and ridiculous effort required to hold that top slot. If you are a casual player, be casual...casually ask if you can raid with someone. If you are a hardcore poop in a sock take liquids intravenous player..more power to you, wish I could live your life. Why is this such a big issue. We SHOULD mostly be adults, with lives that matter, in the real world, with real sun and real shade and real fucking Tequila. Play the game, get as deep as you want. If you want to be as deep as TMO, BE TMO...you have that option. For the love of god though, quit crying, quit trying to "fix" it. It's not broken, it's just hard. Be harder, or don't be. That's just my two cents.
