It's a nice thought that the forums aren't indicative of the state of the game but historically that just isn't true and I have no reason to believe that's changed.





As others have said there was very little fighting or competition over raid mobs on a lot of servers back in the day. Many servers had GM enforced raid rotations directly going against the idea of competing as you claim was the intent. Instances were implemented as a direct result of the fighting/competition over mobs starting to get out of control on some servers because..... wait for it... they didn't want pve raiding to be competitive! It's very fucking clearly not intended. You have to do some serious mental gymnastics to argue otherwise. Everything spawns in real time because the game came out in fucking 1999 before instance/phasing technology existed. It was literally the only way they knew how to do things. You're literally arguing that FTE race style competition was intended because they made the game the only way they knew how to do so at the time. That's some hilarious shit :P

P.S. I wasn't banned for any of the reasons you stated. Good guesses tho!
You know yer talking to brick walls and trolls at this point now, right? I kinda concluded(Personally) that the top 1-5% raiders "need" this server the way it is to continue having a reason so why not let them(it's a community-based server afterall) you never know what struggles they have. My only reason for posting was to take wall-staring out of the equation entirely cause it directly affects the persons health behind the screen unbeknownst to other members and the 'possibility of cheating' (Not saying OP is correct) enable other players to try to one-up said person. Also saying P99 is an E-sport needs to stop. This isn't Starcraft or some blizzard ranked game with a ladder system. Anyways eff this thread it should be locked! It was entertaining to me 50 pages of pure garbage.
