I just saw this and am processing. You know when you join guilds and look around and know its going to be a good time based on who else was there? Kontra was one of those dudes. Everquest, and the world is a lesser place without him. Miss you buddy.

your guild seems to have a pretty decent organization - close to what I would like ideally - the only modification I would think of making would be to make two nights a week - one is “prime time” which is the content you need a full raid for and thats dkp exclusively , and then the other one is...

So the core crew you would roll out were I to even consider something like this has a strong enough core where failure isn't really a concern. I would actually plan to go hard on launches and expect an extreme level of self sufficiency. This concept would not aim to be #topguild -- and those...

Last I checked U can MQ those items -- but the problem is it gets split by class so much harder to do -- which makes it more difficult. I would be willing to bet most people just camp the minis.

Everyone knows theres hot eq grills u just have no game -- one of my aos boys (not naming names) is on a flight THIS WEEKEND banging a wow chick lmfao - just got the news yesterday

here’s another way to look at that (at least for some of us - I think I have caveated this isn’t meant to be the guild for everyone - But I think it has an extremely strong niche) that’s inflated dkp- very poor loot for you- 3 hours of additional waiting and Travel time - and 3 nights per week...

I havent played on Riz -- but you are 100% correct. I would take it a step further and say not to even clear all AOC content in the "enforced DKP Night" -- and let the rest happen organically with GDKP offnight -- so I think my proposition may be somewhat unique in that sense-- I would go as far...

Thanks all for the great dialogue. I wrote some thoughts and discourse here. In general what I have found is lack of raid selection efficiency and a "clear all at all tims approach" leads to a lot of useless raiding, dkp inflation, etc. I want to make your DKP count with a "No Filler Content"...

I would be interested in playing in a casual raid guild again that has strong real leadership. There are all these guilds on Aradune and other TLP's that claim they are casual but they arent, and this is why TEB and batphone guilds are actually the best for "casuals" ironically: heres why 1...

It will be large lower tier guilds "raiding it" all the time. We used to 6 man all the mini's and trash mobs for armor in an instance. I dont know if this is current -- but you used to get a short general lockout of TOV for going there on instance, but it wouldnt affect your loot lockout for...

There was nothing relaxing of what I did in SG. I had someone show up once to get an invite to the guild and I thought he was invading my camp and we screeched at him autistically for 4 hours. Later on it turns out my ADA Compliant partner on the endeavor had caused the entire misunderstanding.

I raped SG for like 40+ hours straight and farmed seahorse haste belts for an entire raid on selos. That wasn't autistic at all.

airpod pros are actually awesome im glad i bought a pair

So society is a liability to itself, I agree. Maybe what a lot of people want is purpose. In humanity scale infrastructure projects you need a lot of people to build stuff. Maybe those are just resources waiting to be activated towards a better purpose. Think of all the existential crisis...

I view this type of passive resignation and leaning on non-realistic academic solutions as a non-starter. For one the world is a random number generator -- each human born creates a chance for incremental innovation -- reducing the population would slow this. I actually wonder if the pace of...

Speaking frankly I don't really care much about alien life -- I care about human life. I don't think we need FTL to survive and propagate, although it would be great. Quantum entanglement provides promise in that area however. There are a lot of hurdles that do have to happen though the largest...

Bigpapi-gate? I really wanted to race yall joining would have been the easy cop out haha

EQ is still alive? I figured it would die when I left.

Block all applications and stop using smartphones. They are limbic stimulators meant to create soyboys and destabilize societies for technocrats and china to rule

Brevity is the soul of whit and all that, but I think we are generally on the same page. Uploading ourselves somewhere else works insofar as the location of that server continues to operate which is nowhere near guarunteed at our present level of technology.

The "being first" theory is valid as a theory. It bodes better for our chances than the alternative but it may not matter anyways. How can you get society to gain the will to invest in large infrastructure projects.

Where is this value calculated from?

Make no mistake that tech and peoples mental energy is one of if not the largest front in the new warfare. I am not sure that tech even knows what to do with it. Its a pandoras box mentally what we are doing to our brains as people and a society. Going back to planning -- one could speculate...

I don't have all the answers immediately. I'll report back after I have spelled it out more. I am seriously considering spending time on it as well as writing about "New Warfare".

I have not gotten far enough to consider how to wield that beast in terms of governance etc. because I don't feel far enough along in terms of a proposition towards a solution. I dont think its a PAC only, theres more than just that for sure but that would be one arm of that "empire". Maybe it...

So this post comes at an interesting time in my life, I have been contemplating the great filter for about the last year and pondering what I can do about it. At the very least I think a society of people should be formed around this specifically and could form directed investment funds, PAC's...

The degree to which everyone whom understands it A) acknowledges it B) rolls over with no solution is fucking disturbing to me and should be to you too. Comments above about monkey politics and then subsequent resignation are just illustrative examples of why we are doomed the way things are...

A better question I have pondered is this. If you truly believe and understand the great filter -- then you are probably disturbed to the degree of some type of action or desire for action to pass the next filter. I feel like I have a generational burden of thousands of my ancestors scraping...

Great thread. If you get stuck you are statistically guarunteed destruction eventually by the heat death of the sun, a meteor, etc.. So its the same thing. Social media and smartphones is a limbic stimulator and is destabilizing society and may be one such filter. I have noticed a very clear...

Why are we not all apping to pantheon listings yet

That climbing was wild af. havent seen anything like that since assassins creed

I have aspirations to go back and actually play for GOD and OOW and a few of those. Hasn't happened on a TLP yet -- I usually end up touching the sun and burning out due to RL reqs.

I will be interested to see when video game companies start making games for the 40+ niche specifically. Maybe they are true pioneers. Or did candy crush and words with friends beat them to the punch?

For MOTM Mobs monks -- epic + weapon in primary + bare offhand is good for a super long time.

The leaves didnt even shake on the trees last night in HTX. God bless to those east of us.

Houston isnt going to be affected hardly at all. Last night I was much more concerned. I am not at all today. The track has pushed east consistently. West of I-45 maybe 30-50 mph winds.

If your a weather nerd this is my absolute favorite weather source -- its focused on Houston but they track hurricanes in general. AMAZING awarad winning no-hype guys https://spacecityweather.com/

When you got dudes named Cukernaut bowing out, you know it's ugly.

VP Key and Enchanter Epic or min/max RL.... That calculation got made. See you in velious? See you in Luclin? Hope all the TEB boys are doing good.\ Aradune's horrible server performance broke the addiction for me.

Man your gettin it. Nice work. You will probably be the first person to ssf hardcore mode to 50 in eq.
