This isn't about CSG. This isn't about Sirken. I actually like the direction hes taking the server. Blue has experimented with changing a lot of things, but this is the closest to original EQ as it gets at the moment.... besides maybe the vulak mechanic not working properly and permitting leashing in that zone too soon /cough


Lord BoB did not have any timers. I spent 3-4 days watching logs in ToV trying to get timers for next week. We were not not expecting to be in North. We killed Ikitar. Lady Nev was up, and when you have 60 people in a pick up raid and Lady Nev is up, you go.


CSG was right in the rule. If we were DQ'd from Lady M, we were DQ'd. We didn't do a good enough job watching track after we saw Ikitar up. Plain and simple.

The only issue with how things played out is how CSG used the same rules they complain about against a pick up raid.

The only difference between CSG and A/A is that CSG is unwilling to put the time in, and A/A is.

You know what? You're right, I can see your halo now.

Halo indeed, rip Rustle. If quakes were more frequent or had come sooner we might have stayed on.

A better system can replace FTE racing. The current server rule set only works for the 1%, i.e. the most hardcore within AM/AWK. It doesn't work for the casuals or even the majority of AM/AWK membership. The rules are very complex. I get how and why the rules evolve but so many are unwritten or subjective. Casual players don't understand it as shown by the Lord Bob raid.

Can you blow up what's in place now as well? 20 days isn't going to phase the top 2 guilds. I think punishments for cheating should be much more severe and levied on individuals rather than guilds. Delete raid loot from cheated kills and repop the dragons in these cases.

I don't think it's really intended to phase anyone so much as the suspensions have turned into P99's version of a rotation.

I have fought for more earthquakes for a very, very long time. But I have no control over, or prior knowledge of Earthquakes / Simulated repops.

I don't claim the raid scene is perfect by any means, and if you have suggestions I'd very much like to read them over. Feel free to submit a forum petition, or shoot a PM.

so much for the tolerant left

It’s almost as if the raiding mechanics of EQ are so primitive that a brittle jenga tower of rules is needed to support basic raiding. These problems will never go away no matter how many rules or suspensions are doled out. In 2020 the top guild will be suspended for stepping in the wrong eggshell.
