Ask the other guilds, and ask the GMs who have had to deal with zero raid drama... the TMO raid suspension was a glimpse of how the raiding scene on this server *could* be. Every other guild is willing to share and work together and rotate even high priority targets like Trak and VS. We're /randoming on stuff in VP between three different guilds, for crying out loud. Could that even happen if TMO were not suspended? No. Because they have deemed the rest of us have not "earned" those pixels or the right to those encounters. Somewhere along the way, they crowned themselves gatekeepers of all the loot and have taken it upon themselves to decide who is worthy and who is just "getting handouts."
The ONLY guild on the server who thinks "competition" at the level they pursue it is "fun" is TMO. The rest of us don't find that fun at all. Yet, because one guild isn't willing to work out a rotation, they inflict their will against all other guilds. What gives them that right? Because they have the most players willing to "do what it takes" and risk getting raid banned time and time again in order to get pixels? Again, nilbog is right... we all have the power to change it. If TMO wants to treat the rest of us this way, then boycott them. Guildleaders... mandate from your guilds a strict refusal to group with them, and their alts, and all the people they have tucked away in Enraptured all sneaky-like. Stop talking to them. Stop buffing them. Stop buying and selling from/to them. Just stop interacting with them all together. When their membership no longer finds it fun to log in for their trinkets and then log out because no one else on the server wants to have anything to do with them, maybe they'll put the appropriate pressure on their leadership, if they're not already doing so in response to the poor-decision making that led to their two week raid-suspension to begin with. Oh, and if you do the FTE shout thing, re-define FTE as "the first guild to do X amount of damage to the mob" and check for that. That'll make kiting mobs a thing of the past as well as GM intervention after the fact to determine who had FTE and potentially having to re-distribute loot. Then you can't just put AFK people there to get on the hate list first... you actually have to engage the mob with a KS group and with enough of a raid force where you plan to win. The FTE shout will let the opposing guild know they can pull their forces out and let the FTE guild try their luck with whatever they engaged with.

everytime i read a comment from active TMO people in this thread, it reminds me of how frustrating and stupid it was to be on top of the server. Cockblocking people to feel better about yourself. I did it all a year ago, and now that I have some distance to it all I can see what a sad thing it truely is.
What you (and by "you" i mean the people on this server that are not in TMO) need to realize is the mentality of these people. They feel they "deserve" every dragon and raid mob in the game, because they PUT IN THE TIME AND EFFORT. Therefore, if you can not compete with 24 hour per day tracking, and being able to mobilize 40 people within 15 minutes, YOU CAN GO F*** urself. You dont deserve ANYTHING. If it was up to them, they would still be cockblocking every single raid mob in the game because they CAN. You dont deserve it. Thats the bottom line. Now I moved to AK. I didnt rejoin TR because tbh I didnt like my time there very much. It didnt remind me at all of how classic everquest used to be. There was always competition, but it was NEVER like it is here. On P99 theres a unique metagame, that is only reinforced by the horribly retarded forum community. Thank god some people started cleaning up a bit. I hope it is not too late. The earliest I saw people starting to cockblock to slow down others progression was after PoP launch, because you NEEDED to keep the other guilds out of the EPs so you could progress on to the Plane of Time, through flagging - It was a flagging bottleneck so you needed to slow the progression of other guilds or they would catch up . Anhow, TR fits in perfectly in the new server, they get along with everyone - Despite some TMO forum trolls going on a riot on the AK forums to try and get IB/TR kicked from the server, they raid there, silently, without any drama, sharing the content with numerous other guilds. Even Lron has given them a break. Back to topic: IMO just dont compete with TMO. By the time you beat them you will hate yourself for what you have become, it is simply not worth it. Let them have their little E-Win, they all sacrifice so much for it. And most of all donīt let them troll you by believing that you dont deserve "their targets". I am sure theres plenty of old school TMO around that would agree that what they used to be was way more important and fun than what they are now. If youre casual and want to see some content, get a mac mini and join us here on Al Kabor. It is truly a classic Everquest Community with awesome content and 2 guilds that are dedicated to do real progression. TR and vintage are both still progression locked at velious, AND theres also Luclin and PoP for all those who didnt actually hate it. Both of the expansions had a lot to offer, and you will be able to play the game you like without classic nazis telling you how you should and shouldnt play this game [You must be logged in to view images.
