Aftermath eating a full 10 days raid suspension

[arsenalpow]

This servers high end raid scene is built with the bricks of shitting on rules, both the actual rules and spirit of the rules. What happened the other day is just par for the course man. Why argue about it?

Because there aren't supposed to be these rules beyond the basics of KSing/Training/Ninja Looting. The game wasn't engineered to have all this player and staff intervention. You're creating an artificial raid environment to try and float more guilds at the top than the game is meant to support.

Emulated non-classic server seeking to replicate a classic experience. Gotta tweak some shit. Stop being dense.

It's not being dense, it's being realistic. I'm not advocating for either of the top guilds - I don't care about either of them. But you can't tell me that every time I/we/they/us/whoever tries to 'tweak' something, it doesn't come with a laundry list of unintended consequences. And, those unintended consequences are a result of us trying to support this artificial raid scene.

Throughout my time here I've come to figure there are only two real solutions;

A) Eliminate most of the rules and let the two largest guilds of knit-wits battle each other into attrition and winner takes all/the server goes back into a dark age where a single guild controls all content, or

B) Rotations (with very high barriers to entry)

And though I haven't actually played blue in well over a year now, I'm not sure which of the two options I would prefer anymore.

I blame Unbrella for the current state of lawyer quest. Back in my day everquest law was a noble practice pursued by only the most respected gentlemen. Now we've got all these big guild lawyers running around with their diploma mill law degrees... its just plain uncivilized.

University of Phoenix

Western Governors

All a fine way to get a piece of paper that means something to few industry companies. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So after everything, you're saying that what Awakened did was worse than what Aftermath? Typical deflection!

No, clown. I was responding to Chest's post in a vacuum. And, you can't come at me in RnF - we're listed as friends on the forums.
