I'm incredibly thankful the people in this thread have no ability to change the raid climate

False. GM's can check pretty easily as to who owns characters. There has already been the type of rotation on this server before that I mentioned. It was called Class R. It took very little GM involvement except for them to have a page as to which class could currently kill the mob.
But people still double dipped between classes with alts in different guilds. They even swapped around for FFA's depending on fte. That was with (former) staff approval. I'm sure it wasn't a large scale problem but it did happen.

Class C, Class R, and FFA system wasn't a great system for Kunark due to content drought, but it might be worth a revisit for Velious.

It would be a big undertaking. A lot more content to rotate at varying difficulty levels. Smaller guilds taking spots on the Class R rotation and then helping each other with their kills would have to be addressed.

I doubt it would ever be done again, but it was probably the best attempt at allowing the most people to enjoy raid content.

A rotation would kill the server.... Competition is why most high end raid guilds exists. Here in AM..(Before Tempest was immune to being suspended) it became very boring. After 30 days was up, we got excited to finally have something to fight for.

Like always... IMO

Rotation wouldnt kill the server it would only slightly inconvenience the 100-200 unemployed/losers who have very high RA (kill dragons at 4 am instead of sleeping/working) in top guilds... Every other person would benefit though.

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

The Class system did allow competition on every 2 out of 3 raid mob spawns.

To be honest I prefer character by character association with guilds, rather than players belonging to guilds.
