Hey man, if you wanna hold someone's junk while they pee then more power to you, but I don't see what that has to do with this discussion.

I find it odd that you claim to understand the definition of inductive reason, however you can not recognize a metaphor.

I don't understand the raid rules, mechanics, or metagame: Even my raiding adversaries would disagree with you here.
I deserve top-end loot: I have a goal to achieve my epic and a primal spear (or rather, any spear with the Velious 1-H spear graphic would do). I do not have any other gear aspirations, neither do I feel I "deserve" any gear. I have been passed over multiple times for Trak guts for bards that have since quit and yet I am not upset. I figure I'll have to wait until Undead Bard for my guts, I have time. I have actually donated my scales to others that could make use of them for their epics now. I also dinged 47 in banded with a vendor horn and drum. When I won an RBG and Cloak of Piety in the same day, I returned the RBG to the guild.
I'm spouting off about all of it: Besides the TMO bards, I'm the oldest bard in the raid scene still played by the original owner. I know what I'm talking about.
Read what you wrote. It doesn't even make sense.

Bard epics are uncommon. Who would award it to a sub-60? Congrats on giving away the pieces; that'll help you achieve your goals. Do you think trying to snipe FTE will get you a primal or even inside ST? Congrats on giving away your RBG. I have no idea what that has to do with anything.

Wiping in Hate and Sky is not being "in the raid scene."

Sure but it won't get anywhere.
Exactly my point.

You have clearly demonstrated in the past a lack of understanding of the raid scence, of raid dynamics, and raid mechanics. You continue to do so. To say you know what you are doing because you have played a bard for so long is asinine. There isn't a connection there.
With respect to FTE, I am correct in that it matters more than the kill. For instance, 2 Traks ago Foolonius (FE monk) was looting the Trak corpse, but Ephi claimed Biggslipp (TMO) had FTE, therefore TMO got Trak even though Foolonius got the exp (and Lexigan (BDA warrior) got the kill hit). Please explain where FTE matters less than getting the kill? For instances where only one guild engages, FTE determines which guild can rightly engage for the kill, again making FTE more important than the kill for determining who gets the loot. You, and Alawen, are both making the blanket statement that I don't know raid rules/mechanics/metagame as replies to my accurate assessment of raid rules/mechanics/metagame.

FTE is all that matters for the way this server is run. You don't want them getting raid mobs, stop killing their targets for them. If you are dumb enough to kill a mob you don't have FTE on, you deserve to lose that mob.
This reminds me of a certain TMO Trak where they had 19 in Sebilis, 5 able to engage Trak, and were still awarded loot for FTEing a VD engage. VD was told "get better at FTE LOL" by TMO. This is just me telling TMO to "get better at FTE LOL", which I'd hope you guys already know. Jokes lose all their fun when you have to explain them.

You are arguing a concept that wasn't in contention in your post. Your post said any guild who who dps'd someone elses FTE is stupid. When in a majority of the case the only reason to know who got FTE is with a GM. Your post lacked insight into actual raid dynamics. If you wish to demonstate knowledge and understanding of those dynamics maybe you should refrain from making posts like that in the future.

Yours is the informal fallacy of hasty generalization. In some cases, FTE is a deciding factor. However, showing up with an inadequate raid force and having your bluff called makes FTE irrelevant, as demonstrated at Noble Dojorn. Lacking a competent pull team on an outdoor dragon will prevent an opportunity to compete for FTE at all, as demonstrated at Talendor. Being unable to find your way to the raid spot without dying will also preclude a chance for FTE, as demonstrated at Nagafen.

FTE matters. FTE is not the only thing that matters. Stating a claim that only FTE matters compromises your credibility. From my perspective, it looks like you've been drinking BDA Kool-Aid a little too long. The raid rhetoric in that guild is utter nonsense. Tracking the TMO tracker? Really? You honestly believe that's a route to victory?

Could have been a joke based on an odd metaphor choice? Probably not, though.

You're absolutely correct. I literally want to hold their penises while they urinate and then give them homemade baked goods. Hey, don't judge.

What you found on this forum is a lot of people better informed than you, who disagreed with you, which you don't like. In response you have been nothing but a willfully ignorant, asinine, petulant, narcissistic simpleton who avoids, neglects, evades, or scorns any bit of information offered by anyone who doesn't worship the mud scraped off your tiny, pixelated boots. You do not have an informed opinion. You do not have a defensible argument. You, in fact, do not have a brain. You're a mindless, thoughtless, lulling, salivating zombie vomiting misinformation and stupidity. If you were dug up you'd be classified as a freak of evolution and not a single phyla would claim you as their own. You feel the necessity to aggregate a macho persona for yourself on the internet which impresses no one and embarrasses those unfortunate enough to be close to you for any extended length of time. And this is the last thing I have to say you to: if you do not apologize for this debauchery of a forum thread, I hope after you die you're reborn as a cross-eyed gerbil.
