I mean... What exactly do you think you put effort into other than FTE races? Did you buy into the exclusive rights to the program coding for ownership of these mobs? In a scenario where FTE races aren't occurring like some people are suggesting, what effort do you think you're putting in? By the basics of the mechanics of the raid targets themselves, you do nothing more capable than any other guild/alliance. STAHP with the "how great are we tho!' No one is telling you to sit at a race line or track targets for an absurd amount of time, bat phone, and feel pressured to mobilize asap except yourselves. That's the whole point some people are making. You don't have to do that so it's a moot point.
Honestly, who gives a hoot if multiple guilds want to work together. Some guilds who want to compete, but wont play on a PvP server, are killing any chance of pick up raid activity or togetherness on a PvE server. You're debating FTE rules, and that's it. Just let people help each other in peace and stop trying to force them to hate and screw each other over or forfeit mobs. Just let the mob go.

If the mechanics of an encounter are all you ever have to worry about then what would be the point? Killing something that isn't contested is nothing special. I don't play on phinny because just experiencing the content isn't the point. If all you're interested in is doing something you did 15 years ago again for the feels then there are plenty of servers where you don't need to compete to do that.
There were some rotations on live but most of them weren't inclusive to the entire server either. I know on xev for instance Ntov went to whoever killed aary, which meant you had 3-4 guilds racing to kill aary. While it wasn't an FTE race it was still a race and a competition.
On P99 being able to beat the mechanics of an encounter is 10% of the battle, securing the mob is the real fight.
