Or the GMs could just do what I've been advocating in this thread previously, which is a top-down method of deciding things, since this community has proven time and time again they can't be trusted to handle anything on their own.

And from a classic standpoint, many guilds in era pulled dragons across the zone to kill in different spots. It's not a loot conveyor belt. I don't give a fuck about the loot. If somebody did nothing but sit at entrance, it was their choice. Which was a fine choice, because not everybody wants to be a playmaker. And that's true even in the current meta. But classes were not pigeonholed.

Also it doesn't change the fact that regardless of which classes are doing the pull, 90% of your raid is sitting at the entrance waiting for a dragon to be delivered to them. During the era of dragon pulls to entrance, most players never stepped foot past the ToV entrance. That's not how the game was meant to be played, period. That's why as soon as players started figuring out how to do these pulls on live, the devs rooted the dragons to put a stop to it. P99 staff just waited 4 years because reasons.

Again though, this is a huge derailing from the 2 main points I was trying to make. 1. Trains to entrance was not the way the game was meant to be played. 2. It doesn't matter what meta you adopt, the p99 raid scene will always be toxic as long as it relies on the self-policing petition system.

Everybody can make plays without aspiring to be "playmakers" when having to react to the unexpected. Those who are wary of taking initiative will see the spam / hear the call from officers to intervene which is easier to do since the pressure's off and shit has already hit the fan. If you fail, no one will fault you for it and if you succeed, everyone will praise you. When camp has to be on the move, anything can happen. But it's next to impossible to contribute anything when the crawl is taken out of the dungeon. | ||||

1. There were lots of petitions going out back then as well, with trains flying everywhere and not being considerate of others. Why would we go backwards? We've done that before. 2. Where can I sign up to be a Real Time Raiding Ref? | |||

@GM's+
Only 1 GM needs to sit in ToV during a quake and look around for 2-3hrs. Take some notes (Record it), present the problems list up the chain of command, discuss a plan and formulate, provide the guidance back down to the plebes. /thumbsup You'd save a ton of man hours if you just got ahead of it all and lay down your laws in accordance with the direction . | ||
