In all reality I think they're (Rogean is...) playing a PR game that has to be played with this server. Yes, he knows the raiding scene is ridiculous (he's actually said so himself) but he can't go FTE rules. That would create a TON of work for the server staff with...how many GMs do they have on staff right now? 2? How would this even be possible? There's absolutely no way you could get an expedited response in any way, shape or form when this happens and people would just end up yelling at the GMs.

On the other hand they also can't implement a system that would degenerate into people yelling at eachother (example: GMs say deal with it yourselves...yeah that didn't turn out so well before and things have only gotten worse...). So they have to hold people's hands but they can't use the GMs precious time to settle disputes of FTE, so what can they do?

Come up with a system that uses as much or even less GM resources/time as the current system does. It would need to be a stable system that has the capacity to evolve as the dymanic of the server changes as well as incentivise competition.
