I'm definitely with you on CT. This is one instance where we could have true racing competition. Instead of having to watch the guild with 15 first in zone kill the two golems, make that part FFA.

Doesn't matter how far in they are, a second comes in and beats them to the two golems they get a shot at CT.

I'm sure alot of us are unhappy to say the least when some jerk does something to use to make our game time not enjoyable. The fact is we usually grumble about it, go to the boards and post what happens or just rant in shouts about the scoundrel that did us wrong. Many of use aren't vigilantes we can't just go off and administer some sort of justice on someone else even if they are jerks, all it causes is more retaliation from him/her and their friends and guild mates. You sure don't want some ticked off jerk following you around trying to make your in-game life miserable.

Rep pushed Abacab to nuke his character and account, trust me if you log in and people flame you in tells and refuse to group with you it will affect anyone's desire to play here.

I also don't get the afk for 6 hours rule? I think whoever posted the hadden situation had it perfectly. If you roll up to Hadden and he's spawned but some guy is AFK, why should he get first shot? Go kill Hadden and if the guy comes back from AFK 2 seconds later and is cool about it, be a stand up person and give him the earring. However if you're waiting there next to him and his guild keeps passing off the camp and being afk when Hadden spawns, fuck them.

The rules are too easily manipulated by dickheads, and I'm not even talking about the raid situation.

Again, there should be a few universal rules and that's it. Don't purposely train people, it becomes apparent via reputation and repetition who does this on a regular basis. Don't steal camps, however if someone is being ridiculous (ie going to work and feeling like they should still hold the Ishva camp) by all means take it away. Use judgement here, come complain on the forums to the public instead of summoning a GM at every turn.

And when it comes to raiding, many of you people claim to hate IB and DA anyways. Why not let us fight it out amongst ourselves instead of imposing overbearing rules?

The camping rule is a microcosm of the primary issues on this server in terms of right to content. Those who disagree only need look at Oasis. This is a lower level exp zone with a few named spawns. Those who can kill LJ will fight for it while those who can't will fight for lesser mobs. If you pull near a group they will often try to steal your pull, do you go bitch to a GM or do you man up and beat them? I'm the latter... what are you?

That's the perfect example of someone who will be banned though. Some guy comes in and trains your group because he wants a camp on his 50 necro. Then he's a smug dick about it, go post on the forums and see if other people have similar sentiments. If this is his norm, train the MFer and if he starts to follow you around griefing you, let me know. If the GMs say "it's ffa, do what you will" I would start a guild named "Vigilantes" compromised of 50 monks who make it our sole purpose to train the living fuck out of assholes who grief casual players like you just mentioned. This seems like a much better use of my time than camping a raid mob for 48 hours simply because the current rule system calls for it.

Again, open up the rules and let us play. In fact that's my campaign slogan.

Cyrano for Server President: "If you vote for me I'll train the jerks of the server!"

i dunno about you guys. but last night i just rolled into guk, lord was open, lord was up (no yak), killed him, cleared room, cleared hall, PH spawned, killed him, cleared hall, lord spawns, yak in hand, kill him, clear room, clear hall, lord spawns, yak in hand, kill him, leave guk.

didnt even need to talk to anyone, i just went along, got my 2 yaks then left.

but im bound outside, and i check on all the premium camps every now and then.

magi was also open when i went along.

all this bitching and moaning about guilds locking them out is crap, ive gone along grabbed frenzy like 3 times in the last week, same with magi and lord and king.

and for raid mobs: FFA is bad idea. simple.

[QUOTE=Cyrano;80749] I think it's shitty that going AFK at a camp for any amount of time allows people who want to cite the rules 24/7 can make a valid argument about taking a spawn. QUOTE]

Now you understand the importance of maintaining a poop sock.

You were a very lucky soul then i guess, not to doubt you but who is your toon, anyone can come on here and post a zone is not perma-camped story.

There should be absoulty no GM involvment in raid bosses. Now that people know a GM will be inviolved it only fuels the whinners and crybabies. Simple Fix: GM's never respond to raid mob disputes unless its a bug. Any person that petitions another guild over a raid boss gets a nice lil suspension. If you want people to stop bitching stop giving them reason to and dont allow it.
