The vast majority of the player base would abide by it, and even then, if a group was missing 2-3 people that would be there for an average 'take down attempt', an incoming group would standby and wait to see if guild A killed it, wiped, or didn't have the intent of killing it.

Then again, most of Quellious was also nice enough to talk to each other about the intent of a raid in a zone, and see to some sort of agreement. When I was working on my rogue's epic, our guild zoned into Kedge at the same time as another, but instead of racing to the end for the robe I needed and hoped we killed him first, our guilds joined forces to kill him. They had a bard that needed the spine, I needed the robe. A win for all sides.

Would that we could live in a more perfect world, eh?

This is how Tunare was for the most part. It sounds like alot of you grew up on very immature and greedy servers. Tunare, just had a mutual unwritten law, first to be in zone clearing with a force had claim, simple as that. I only recall 1 leapfrog moment with Ssra Emp and a GM just came and checked logs of who tagged the first trash to lay claim.

Just to clarify.. this has to do with a mob that is already spawned. We have a plan in place that we are announcing shortly that will deal with mobs that haven't spawned yet.

Probably not much help to you Rogean, but on Rallos Zek the raiding guilds were pretty much left to there own devices. there was diplomacy and it worked well. but in the event some guild decided to "leapfrog" a raid target the GM's would tell us to resolve our own problems through the pvp mechanic enabled on the server, simple as that. to be honest most things on RZ were resolved using the pvp mechanic, might made right there, and i kind of miss that.

We aren't speaking in regards to poopsocking. This is a blast thread itending to solicit opinions/ideas on how to handle leapfrogging.

Let's say on topic. Obviously this is not a pvp server and pvp solutions are pointless to post here, I've already deleted one post about it.

We're talking about a mob that's already spawned. Don't worry about a mob that hasn't spawned yet.

If there is a plan for future spawns it should apply to an already spawned mob as well...

I fail to see a reason why you shouldn't apply whatever new rules are coming to the current situation. If they cant deal with a spawned mob what CAN they deal with lol?

I believe Rogean was talking about whether a mob was literally "spawned" as in up/alive versus poopsock camping.

Stay on topic. This post contributes nothing but your opinion.
