There's no solution to make everyone happy, but there is a solution to make the majority happy. It really doesn't make sense to cater to a small crowd that makes arbitrary work out of a video game.

Yes catering to the crowds(guilds) who have the people with bunch of free time on their hands to have people constantly tracking or have enough people to always have numbers on hand. This server is NOT a classic experience for most raiders.

i'd be interested to hear your raiding experience on live then if you are most raiders? If by catering to us it means we have to invest a ton of time to get any of these mobs then they can keep their catering...

No one is telling you to invest the time. You are arbitrarily making the work for yourself tracking and zerging. And having no rotations caters to those who would rather track and zerg than just share things like 6 year olds.

yup and because of that we get the mobs. having rotations caters to those who don't want to invest any time yet want all the same rewards as those who do invest the time.

at your job do you get promoted just because you show up or because you put forth the extra effort?

This is a game not a job. You're making a job of it and ruining the game for the rest of the people who just want to play. And grats on Maestro this morning, that was some fine tracking FE did.

There can never be another classic experience in that aspect because we all know the encounters by heart now, how spawn timers work, and have basically a complete knowledge of the game as a whole. Once this happens the only thing that offers a challenge is competition between guilds.

I think you're misunderstanding what raiding actually is. Raiding in and of itself is meant for the "hardcore" crowd. That is the whole point of raiding, the rest of the content is there for people who want to play more casually. You're trying to apply world of warcraft mentality to Everquest, it doesn't work.
