If you would just let CSG play when, where, and however they want there wouldn't be a problem. Is that so hard?

Game is over, Progression is over, banning people preventing them to play the game is retarded and i am sure lots and lots of people are getting burned out.

Again, not my call but just posting my 2cents here, i feel the P99 staff should reconsider the direction they are taking.

I am completely baffled about these opinions of rotations.
Did anyone play on the Karana server 1999-2004 ?
We had the Karana Council of Guilds.
Every guild could sign up for an opportunity on a scheduled time so no one had to leap out of bed at 4am or pull a 72hrs poop sock. It 100% worked. It was enforced by the players on the server who blacklisted violators. Blacklist being those violators would be ignored by 95% of the server. No groups, no ports, no sales, no raids, no help, no communicating to them.
The only result of the above was a guild that formed with ONLY these blacklisted people which in turn caused them to near daily loose people to permanent bans. (They violated PNP at every turn).

This system worked just fine until Pop when it really wasn't needed anymore due to the larger amount of content.
It never stopped working, just faded out, and then died with instances.

Actually yeah I played on Karana during that time. I was named Heebs there too, did we know each other?

But more to your point yes Karana was wonderful. I was in one of the top guilds on the server and there was never any raiding at 3am or staring at walls BS. We would come home from work/school at like 6pm est, pick a spot to raid and by 6:30 we were there. By the time I was raiding it was PoP but I never heard of the kind of crazy stuff that goes on with P99 until I came to P99.

LOL. I was in one of the top guilds on the server

There are no top guilds on servers like that ,numpty.


Im sure it was wonderful. But we dont all want to wait every 6 weeks to kill a welfare Dozekar. Feel free to re-roll Agnarr.
If the GMs here decide we are following in Agnarrs footpath then ripP99

First guild to kill Quarm on the server, so call it what you want I guess. My point was even the raiding guilds on the server never put in the kind of hours / poopsocking sessions you do now. But I guess that's how you get your jollies so whatever, have fun out-neckbearding everyone

That council was really only for Vox / Nag + planes / gods. Trak also? Nothing in Velious and onwards. I remember still pretty much racing for everything.

Also, too many French....
