Indeed my friend (This is Fringyph, by the way) I know there are more than a few, but this one especially bothers me. It feels like a bunch of children crying because the upper classman is hogging tether ball....or something. Get better at fucking tether ball....know what I mean?

Amen to this. Wish more people saw it this way.

That's a given...and if there really is an OP raid guild that REFUSES, to allow others to tag along, or lets them tag along and then screws them. It should be dealt with. However we have to remember who we are asking to deal with it. These guys aren't paid. They are doing it for love of the game. Asking for a total rescripting of raid scenarios is extreme. I think.

Well none of these rules have to be official. There should be some agreement that all raiding guilds can agree to uphold though and self police.
For instance:

All the other guilds on the server can beg TMO forgiveness for their treasonous behavior recently and pledge fealty to Zeelot, the true and rightful king of the Server. Then you loyal subjects will be allowed to return to platinum mines.

FTE is something new to this server but it means 'First to Engage' in this instance.

The raid mobs have been specially modified to send a zone-wide message with the name of the first person who agros them. This means that person 'engaged it' and his guild now has control of the encounter until they wipe and the mob looses all agro.

There are a few stipulations though, if the engaging guild doesn't attempt to fight the mob toe-to-toe within a reasonable timeframe (basically, running it straight to your raid force) then they're guilty of 'kiting' and something happens (i'm not really clear, since this stuff is usually sorted out after-the-fact).

Once the mobs hate list is completely clear (everyone who had agro is dead, feigned, or zoned) the mobs FTE resets and the next person to agro it now claims the mob.

FFXI did a similar thing except in that game when a mob was engaged it became locked and only people in the group/alliance could perform any actions against the mob unless they specifically called for help. EQ doesn't have that.

The holiday spirit leads me to believe that maybe the 3 week normal competition and leave 1 week a month for more casual folks is a good idea, well leave everything but vp...that should stay highly contested
