Also we ought to probably recognize that a charmed mob is equal to 2 DPS players. So that 7 man spiroc kill is more like 21. Too me that seems like a normal engage force.

Forgive me if I don't cream my pants over that.
I mean yeah except you eat a DT and now you have 5 players instead of 6 but yep thats definitely just like having 21 people there.

Like why is everyone treating this like some kind of fucking revolution against the totalitarian BDA when the reality of the situation is we made a proposal, it got rejected, we amended it to be more accommodating, and now everyone is like WE'RE FUCKING OUT OF HERE?
Your amended proposal is the most asinine thing I have ever seen cross the FAP boards. YOU CANNOT POSSIBLY THINK THAT MAKING NEW GUILDS KILL TALENDOR AT 3AM TO ENTER THE ROTATION TO KILL DRACO IS A GOOD IDEA.

Anyway, I think this about my quota of RNF for the day. Good day everyone, and don't let Juevento troll you too hard Elzhi

That was the amended one. What about the amended amended one?

It's most likely due to the fact that it is BDA's first foray into threatening to leave the rotation. They usually just let Taken/Div threaten to leave and then Chest tries to mediate between both sides.

Threatening to leave the rotation in FAP is literally the only way to negotiate rule changes. If nobody threatens to leave, it's just people arguing on the forums without any concrete process to change things.

3am eastern is midnight PST and 3am PST is 6am. Why is the 3am kill a problem for people?

So if this is such a common thing why are we Hitler for doing it? Why all the knotted panties and BDA hate over it? See what I'm saying?

If I had to pick one thing about the proposal that I personally don't "get," it's the elimination of dark periods. I thought dark periods were a great idea.


But that doesn't have anything to do with what I'm asking here, which is how is it that BDA amended the proposal and is clearly interested in negotiation yet we are taking the blame for the blowup of the rotation which it seems to me everyone ELSE is leaving? This sounds a lot like a bunch of trolls trying really hard to make us look like the bad guys so that people won't be willing to negotiate with us and the rotation will, in fact, blow up.

Did you have to consult the Farmer's Almanac to do those wicked time conversions?

So wait until it's a better spawn window to attempt getting in the higher tier? No where is it forcing you to attempt mobs at 3am. Do you think most of BDA answers 3am batphones? Fucking Chest doesn't, that bitch is in bed by 9pm.

It doesn't matter what mob it is that requires being killed to enter a mob rotation - if it spawns at 3am it's still inconvenient.

Probably because RNF has been dead for a while and everyone needs something new to be outraged about.
