And we formed a line. When someone came in and moved up and sat on the spawn, we used /petition and a GM showed up. Usually it ended in the other ppl coming in leaving. The GMs actually helped. And they had to be called multiple times.

The line was physical, with ppl usually FD on the ground. They weren't at the computer the full time. I was at the computer 12-15 hrs each of those days. But if you wanted an eyepatch, you sat there and waited. And at spawn time, there were 3 or 4 thats showed to try and KS. An SK with a HT or high dps class is a must.

If you want free pixels, then elder beads are over there. They will message you when its ur turn.

I've probably got the timer of 90% of the SFs that have popped since Velious dropped. Ballpark , without checking logs , he is probably averaging between 1 and 2 skips putting him at a very rough average of 45 hour repop.

So lets say there are enough people who live in Grandmas basement to camp this "live style" because thats how you did it when you were a young lad without much in the way of commitments. So we have what , 5 people in a conveyor belt on that hill for lets say , 250 hours waiting there turn once this list forms up?? Really?

And how do you expect people to get added to the list? Everyone knows how SF respawn works and will be afk for 16-17 hours till the next window - meaning anyone wanting to get added has to wait 16 hours to find out where they are or do we fraps/screen shot to show how many people were on the hill when we turn up?

I dont think you have thought this through. Not to mention why does it have an FTE message...


ps: why were you at your computer for 12-15 hours a day when it was ascertained that SF had a small variance and would skip to the next cycle?

This thread is an embarrassment for the staff.
Strongly disagree. More embarrassed for OP and his attempt to snip some "logs" together.

But OP realized that the "logs" where meaningless, so the post ended up being 90% butthurt narration of what he thinks the rules should be. Only to find out he is as wrong as everyone thought.

Perhaps what blue needs is a Stormfeather ticket vendor NPC who hands out numbered tickets and calls the relevant player when it spawns? If he doesn't respond in chat with the correct command in 30 seconds its then passed to the next called out player?

Before anyone slates the idea, it's basically what you're doing without the vendor NPC on a lot of things and obviously there was queue jumping and people not wanting to wait.

I'm trying to save you from yourselves, please consider this.

judging by the rest of the missing screenshots i'd say this is fabricated beyond the 3 screenshots

aaand yep. it is.

[Sat Sep 12 11:59:29 2015] Sirken says, 'and yes, i can more or less do what i feel is best'
[Sat Sep 12 11:59:30 2015] Sirken says, 'including banning your dumbass... deal with it'

unless sirken types more than 180 wpm, that's not humanly possible.
