Scout Roll: Can roll for others?

Is there actual proof of this working? Anyone have a video anywhere?

IDK, maybe it's true? But I feel like it just replaced the "they're using auto fire" complaints, probably because GMs told someone that winners weren't using auto fire.

I had 0 problems winning click fest w/o auto fire or macros or messing with files.

Me either since I learned the strategy of how to do it.

I'm willing to take Naethyn at his word, he's a very experienced player and knows all the dirty tricks.

a video would require the offender being dumb enough to fraps themselves cheating...

I feel like I needed to break down your post one-by-one, and offer rebuttals. So here we go:



Will never happen because there is no way to truly prioritize "who most deserve."



These "assholes" are people who keep the spirit of classic alive, which is the key founding element of this server.



And what stops this from happening during the classic click-fest? Besides the people who feel like they're entitled to loot because they can't EQ as well as other players.



There is no definite way to figure out whether or not someone is doing the fight for themselves. So this point is about as sharp as a spoon.




If you wanted a roll rule, then it should be only ONE roll per GUILD. This was a suggestion by a dude a while back at Scout that didn't make much sense to me at the time, however, based on OP's complaint (amongst other compliants, similar, from other players), this is probably the most logical player agreement that could be made. I say this, because it prevents Asshole Soandso and his band of 10 to 30 dingleberries from tipping the scale in their favor. It would make a fair chance across the board, and people could still assist in the fight. And at that point, if a guild wanted to decide who the loot would go to, they could without other people being salty about it.

Buuuuuuuut, people on this server don't understand logic, so it'll never happen. Therefore, I stay in favor of the click-a-thon.

I mean...thats what it feels like to me. I could be wrong though.

Anyone who doesn't think this is going on hasn't experienced the end game of this server where every tiny advantage is exploited to its fullest. In many ways this is pretty cool, eq game mechanics pushed the furthest, but sometimes it is just cheating.

This didn't start at scout.

So...sometimes it's cool and sometimes it's cheating? Got it.

I'm arguing in bad faith? How's that? I'm pointing out how dumb statement sounds exactly that: Dumb.
