Raid Changes

[Fountree]

See this ^ is what I was talking about. If this pisses you off, please make yourself heard!

By enforcing something like this you're assuming that players are only using the characters for raid purposes and not real "playing". You're telling players that "hey, I know what you're doing with your characters, you're camping them right? I'm assuming you are, so you can only use your characters to do X on this server, not Y." And that's why this is just wrong.

So can you elaborate whether this is actually happening as much as people seem to think?

I suppose I could say that doing that is most definately not classic, but then that might skew your answer right? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There are always top guilds, but whats crazy about 1999 is that the top guild gets 90% of the mobs rather than 50-75%. Think about what is being proposed, Fountree:

* TMO still gets every variance mob, especially b/c other guilds won't bother
* TMO gets 50% of simulated repops
* Everyone gets to have the fun of competing for mobs, only we get to race rather than stare at tracking windows for hours

TMO gets +50% pixels, everyone else gets +300% pixels.

THERE IS NO DOWNSIDE . . . . unless you hate the idea of other people getting stuff. And its really obvious this is how you feel.

This is not true. See my earlier post.
On Rodcet the top guild got 90%+ of the mobs, at least until Velious was released.

In fact there was competition, some pretty stiff competition, but much like P1999 the guilds that were considered competition folded, went thru other iterations (names) and folded again.

History is repeating itself [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The downside is they aren't repopping VP, which they should (unless this changed recently)

Was too!

So Rogean, whats the chance we'll see a post recruiting more content developers for Velious? Fountree is right about Velious being great for the server, and its a huge amount of work for Nilbog alone.
