That's not the smart move. That's the shady move. At least Dolj are fuckin' men and made their intentions clear from the start.

Moving from class R to class C is not shady; it is encouraged by the staff.

Pardon, but the issue I have is that I don't like it when one guild or group of guilds shits on another guild. I didn't like it when TMO did it to FE/BDA/everyone else, and I don't like it now.

I'm speaking my mind in this particular instance because I find it unfair that Doljon is getting called out for not acquiescing to the play-style of guilds like bda, taken, and ag, when their entire argument during these raid talks is to not force play-styles on others.

BDA/Taken/AG/etc didn't want to be forced into competing with TMO/FE/IB because they were unable or unwilling to do so. Why is Doljon suddenly the exception, just because they won't conform to the more casual play style?

I never once defended Doljon's actions in sky outlined in this thread. I didn't even speak to them.

I really hate RNF, and the only reason I even read this thread is because 1) I can't turn RNF off (opted out...multiple times...but it never goes away) and 2) the GM intervention in this discussion.

Derubael, the entire reason why I liked (and fought for, against the petitions of many) the 1 1 1 plan is it allowed for both diverging gameplay sets equal footing, and anyone between the ability to do what they wanted.

Lord bob isn't forced to do anything they don't want to do, period. There is no GM enforced play nice rotation in any way, it is entirely a player construct so that:

1) The smaller guilds have a shot at the mobs that they can kill but would otherwise be blocked off from them

and

2) Individuals and guilds that had no want to track for hours on end for even a chance at engaging a mob didn't have to against their personal desires

This is the entire point of this argument - I do not want to stop Lord Bob (actually I hope this title isn't inflammatory to you guys, I honestly have no idea how to spell this name and would have to look it up every time, if it is inflammatory to you I would be happy to look it up and type it out) from playing the way they want to play the game, but that's the entire point of the distinction between "Class C" and "Class R". Class R is restricted for a reason - we are accepting restricted mob access because we do not have an interest in competing the way the competitive class wishes to.

I have not talked to Lord Bob, so I do not know their exact reasoning for things, but I would be more than happy to work with the guilds and make a spot with them in

1) the sky rotation

as well as

2) the raid mob rotation

but only if they wanted to. I will not force them into a style of play they don't want to be into, but they can do what they want to incentivise competition in the competition class, hence the name of the entire class.

That being said if they choose to stay in Class R and purposefully hinder the restricted and play nice atmosphere in the name of competition this seems entirely contradictory from the entire point of the 1 1 1 plan, because there's an entire class dedicated towards competition that do not want to play nice.

What I'm most concerned about is the GM intervention and assumptions of information displayed in this thread as if every class R guild felt like shitting on Lord Bob from the start, which I can assure you is entirely incorrect and a misguided assumption.

Due to some helpful PMs in response to my other post about Lord Bob, I am now 99.99% convinced that Lord Bob is run by Acarer and his crew of sketchballs.

Because we once again have a minority forcing a majority to play a certain way.

"Majority" of course meaning BDA as always. Pathetic how the largest guild is always trying to push everyone around all the time.

[Pheer]

i feel like all the Class R guilds are treating lord bob like a way huger threat than they really are

Sure they sniped your sky day, but how far did they even get in sky? island 4 at the most?

I might start taking threads like this seriously when they actually kill something noteworthy

What's so funny? All you did with a screen shot of the guild classifications to date, is confirm it. They don't want your rotations, they want to compete. BUT...they're smart enough to know that they can't yet with FE/IB/TMO. So they'll practice on the carebear mobs for now, steal some of your designated pixels, and take a shot as us later. Good for them.

Collecting loot on a schedule and then moving to class C isn't going to work. You need to level up as a guild, and that includes learning how to race people that are close to your current abilities.

I've asked it before, and still don't have an answer,... why is it that you guys live in a world of extremes and think that the entire spectrum of raid options is comprised of only schedule loot pick-ups and shitting in socks? There can be gentlemanly competition.

Is it okay to hate on them now then? I'm confused.

They aren't a class r guild because they haven't killed any class r mobs.

We'll let Detective Jeremy decide their fate.
