The question we are all ignoring is:

Who will become the next ST?

All that has been done is the removal of the top predator in the ecosystem. Now the coyotes or potentially coywolves will move in. The beginning of the "top-down trophic cascade has started." Governments never can properly managed anything...

Does Kingdom become the next top dog and take all the Trak kills creating the exact same scenario? Or do we go full AOC/socialist and have Kingdom handout free loot to everyone even though they put in all the effort to gear, level and kill the mobs?

When will they be eradicated like the wolves of Yellowstone until there is nothing left, and the elk graze the shrubbery down, destroy the river and harm the overall ecosystem?

The only true fix is the rfeintroduction of wolves.

I for one am happy to receive some free Trak/VP gear. Please twink all my alts before you can gear yourselves. Oh also, please give me VP key components on all my toons, but you need to farm them for me. Just PM when it spawns and let me get there for it then I can log back off. How do I get GM guarantees that I will receive my equal share of the top 1%'s wealth?

Someone clearly doesn't understand what they're referencing at all. Seal Team weren't wolves, and their affect on the server was nothing like the wolves in yellowstone. Also, calling a business insider story a scientific article? Chamon. Don't make references to shit you don't understand, it just makes you look stupid.

Now, I get the point that you're trying to make. You're trying to say that the way Seal Team behaved will be no different than the guild that replaces them, that the 'shape' of the ecosystem won't change. Frankly I don't think that's fair. ST behaved incredibly poorly, I think that yes, one 'most competitive' guild will likely emerge, but I doubt their behavior will be close to as toxic as ST was.

ST leaving the raid scene isn't going to cause a trophic cascade, they weren't keeping the server healthy. They were a fucking cancer, and I don't think anyone outside their ranks and DMO gives a fuck that they're out of the raiding scene. We'll see how they do trying to prema-camp keys (and I'm sure keep other sought after spots perma-camped) goes for them, classic cancerous move.
