Lol you can misuse the term winning as you will aaron. I meant it in the only applicable sense, as in winning a race to a mob.

The new rules are designed from keeping the top guilds from monopolizing the whole server, and stop anyone really from the R tier from monopolizing raid mobs.

This is Everquest. There's limited mobs and no instances. Mobs can be competed for. For some people, that's part of the fun, especially now that there's 2 levels of competition to choose from.

Competing within the R tier isn't even stretching the rules or going against what was intended by the staff. The staff have never once said they want a rotation or would enforce a rotation. That's entirely a construct and desire of some of the guilds within the R tier. Sometimes people don't agree with you. That doesn't make them assholes.

Personally I don't even know what I'd prefer at this point, to be in a rotation or not. I'm not arguing for one or the other. I just think you people that are trying to impose your opinion on others and being shitty to people who don't agree with you are the ones in the wrong here.

And before you start coming out with bullshit arguments like "why don't you just go join the C tier?", you know full well a guild like Dolj isn't ready for that yet, so please don't come at me with assinine arguments like that.



^ this end of thread and stop crying. It's 2 levels of competition! Not this pussy rotation crap. Just 2 levels of difficulty. Hard: Tmo, fe, ib. Medium difficulty: ag, bda, Europa etc.
and when server gets too populated they will make a 3rd completion level "Easy"

You misunderstand how I play this game. It's not to 'win' 15 year old content.

Hiding behind the veil of competition the moment the lower guilds reach an agreement. Classy as hell. Again, it isn1't against the rules, its just dick. And current members will see it, and potential members will see it, and...Dick,

When has competition EVER been the problem?!? The problem that led to the current state had nothing to do with competition and everything to do with one guild doing everything it can to cockblock the other guilds when it suited them, and creating an atmosphere where the ONLY way to compete was to park alt armies, run a bat phone network and even train your fellow players.

If Bob wants to compete, good for them. The only dick move is the threatening to disregard previously established sky agreements. Sooner or later, some guild would say "screw it" to the unofficial and unenforceable rotation. Good for them. The raid mob vending machine is embarrassing.

ITT: Yendor once again pretending to be a server white knight when hes in fact just as much of an asshole as those he regularly rails against. The reason he's an asshole? The play my way or you're wrong mentality is shockingly familiar. Dude, you don't even play on this server anymore, shut your fucking mouth already and stop pretending like you're the good guy when you're just as biased to your own worldview of how the game should be as the people you claim have been "ruining" the server.

You and the rest of the rotation, WoW carebears ruined the server for all of us, do we get to cry this much now?

Again, complete agreement that Doj has every right behind thier decisions, and we all have the right to call their actions dickish.

Really we have no technical disagreement. It's just a constant public announcement worthy of RnF.
