In fairness that was like a year ago. I don't know who is the current djinnibagging scum at the moment... Not planarity I guess [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Planarity is just scum for farming KoS on Clue's indefinitely suspended sky day, which is somehow worse than Noble snipers /boggle

My suggestion was 2 FFA days, not complete FFA.

So those in the agreement could continue to have their cake. So to speak.

2 days would be interesting, similar to what I said applies where those 2 days become a shit show of perma farmed mobs by keyed players and most trash skipped. But it's not a bad proposal. Also as Chillwin mentioned, rotating every 3 months would be a viable solution too, though more GM maintenance there, but easily more fair for guilds not in rotation.

Though I'd be interested to know how many guilds aren't in the rotation atm that want to be. Especially if they just want to be in to get a couple epic pieces & haste belts.

Does anyone really think FFA days are going to open up epic pieces and haste belts to casuals?

Originally OP said Sky Agreement prevents others not in agreement from getting epics and such, that's who I've been directing my comments to. Only reason casual guilds get more of these epic pieces and haste belts is because of the agreement, hence all my comments about mobs being socked without 1.

I can appreciate others different preferred experiences, so if he likes FFA for a couple days it'd be worth requesting to GMs if he wants, I just imagine it being a few groups key to 8 and then sock the few named they want 2 days a week. Sounds like other, imo, sucky raid scene experiences that exist.

Based on OP’s stated goals and position, though, I am curious what guilds are currently being denied sky slots that want them, or if OP is part of a farm crew that doesn’t want to deal with the rules of a widespread player agreement that is pretty well liked, as far as I know.

Yet another situation that could be resolved by just being friendly and talking to another human being, but here we are.

[Dithien]

All that needs to be done is to require Sky guilds/alliance to post a notification on the forums when they are not going up. Every week several/maybe as many as half the slots are not used.

Once the guild notifies that they aren't going up, that slot becomes FFA during that period. People going up could just be warned not to kill stuff late enough to interfere with the next slot.

Problem solved.

Is this proposal coming from leadership of OP's guild? If so, which guild? It can be as easy as just typing words to another person to communicate. It's not like you need to set up a conference room w/projector.

Most folks are actually quite reasonable humanelfs.
