When we have one poster, lets call them BCB saying...
Quote:
The way to keep a thread on-topic is to not engage with anyone going off-topic. And now I'll take my advice and leave you all to it. If you want to keep this thread on-topic I encourage you not to replay to this post.
Then, another poster, lets call them DSM says this...

Quote:
I disagree. The issue with this mentality is posters like Zuranthium and Samoht will just flood the thread with bad information, as they already have.
This is why it has taken upwards of 75 pages to get to the (correct) conclusion of there are many tiers and many mobs and again many classes, that are arguably imbalanced (only from a solo challenge perspective) that make it almost impossible to equally rate an achievement over another classes.

The answer is Stryker. Kudos. Shammy/chanter/nec can do it too, just differently.
Congratulations, we've discovered we are all different.

Any semi-competitive gamer is capable of replicating these EQ solo challenges, given minimal time to acquaint themselves with the UI. There is no complex understanding of tactics/opponents required, no difficult decision making, and no difficult coordination or mechanical skill. You simply learn the pre-determined behaviors of a few NPC's and then do the 1 ideal thing during the fight, with relatively easy inputs.
Sounds like you should make a Fungi King video and show us how it's done. You still haven't.

Indeed. This thread was flooded by Samoht and Zuranthium. Thank you for agreeing with my quote.

Correct!

Back on topic:

Reposting OP's epic video where he kills Fungi King solo with his monk, no consumables:

It deserves the highest ranking of [S] when following the solo artist challenge wiki page. Please note the wiki page was changed after OP did his video, and the changes are still in dispute. [S+] did not exist as a rank previously.

You'll never guess who has over 250 posts in this thread and is trying to claim someone else flooded it.

It sounds like I shouldn't waste years of my life gearing another character on a dead end game, to do something that was solved long ago. It's not even possible to obtain BIS Monk equip right now, and the fight can already be calculated outside the game to determine if it's realistic or not.

Hopefully ripqueefko doesn't wander into the thread, it's the one time his "you don't got warder loot" trolling would be relevant. Someone should track down a BIS Monk on Green and see if they are interested in becoming the first recorded S+ Monk on spore king.

Yourself and Samoht have 257 posts combined. Cause and effect. If you two didn't post those, there wouldn't be replies. If yourself and Samoht simply said "nice video!", instead of making posts trying to diminish OP, this thread would be like 5 pages right now.

Sounds like there is no point in you posting here then. You aren't going to play a game you think is easy and pointless, and OP clearly doesn't want your opinions. Go to another forum that appreciates your "retired (gaming) athlete" "coaching" and "analysis".

I left this dumpster fire awhile ago, but I just checked in an had to note this: when someone says you post a lot, saying "I post twice as much as you" (ie. as much as two other posters) is not an effective rebuttal.

Loramin doesn't understand cause and effect or basic math apparently. Simply showing post count out of context is not an effective attack. If you look at the post history, I did not simply post 250 times in a row. I created 250 replies for 250 posts. One reply for one post.

The key word is "replies". A post from Samoht, Zuranthium, or yourself has to exist before a reply from myself comes. It is unfortunate that you believe you are entitled to attack other posters freely without rebuttal.

A wiki admin should know not to break forum rules and abuse their admin powers. I am still shocked by your behavior in this thread and over the past few weeks. Fix yourself first please. With power comes responsibility. You need to hold yourself to a higher standard than regular posters.

An exit strategy wouldn't be needed if posters like Zuranthium and Samoht posted respectfully and on topic. Cause and effect. Do not troll/attack people, and the people being trolled/attacked will not post in defense. At least you are not trying to blame me for everything, and agree other posters including Zuranthium and Samoht have behaved poorly. Thank you!

I've been talking to people in this thread (from both sides), and I won't repeat everything I wrote, but I want to emphasize one point to everyone I haven't PMed.

When the lock on the page ends, I expect everyone who edits the wiki, whatever side they are on, to make a good faith effort to improve the page for everyone.

That means anyone simply trying to force their viewpoint ... whatever that viewpoint is ... will risk being sanctioned, the same way I'd sanction anyone for abusing the wiki (ie. editing it for a purpose other than making it better for everyone).

Let's hope you act impartially this time. You didn't last time. Perhaps another wiki admin needs to get involved.
