I disagree. Blizzard's attempt to include a real money auction house in Diablo 3 was a good example of why pay to win does not create a good gaming community. In games where community is important, pay to win should be limited at best.
I don't think that's a fair comparison, the RMAH was an entirely unique animal because the loot was so abysmal at the time. The odds of actually getting something you could use via a self found drop was almost impossible, your only option was to either farm gold for X number of hours or drop some real cash to buy shit off the RMAH.
The fact that the loot was such shit made the community worse more so then the RMAH imo.
If I get a group of appropriate level character and head down to lower guk. If there is some level 60 farming frenzy or w/e I will just push them off camp. No reason for that shit when there are people in zone who want to actually enjoy the game and earn their loot.

You push them off camp? How does that work? Pretty sure you arent going to have a shot in hell at getting the kill on said mob.
Rais joined june of this year, btw. Not exactly a long time member 20? months since FoH shut down. (That is, unless he changed his handle so he could be a snitch and shit on people here.) Upstanding member of this forum regardless.

lol i got a mage in your shitty guild and you are one of the worst clerics i have had the pleasure of grping with
so eat a dick maggot
I have been through all the different mutations of the foh board since I was first part of the guild on live. I was deployed when all the fun drama started, and then the different websites/Rerolled sprung up afterwards. So I guess you can call me a lurker of this board, and after finally getting my account active started to post. So since 1999 with a year and a half break.You push them off camp? How does that work? Pretty sure you arent going to have a shot in hell at getting the kill on said mob.

RMT is just one of the main things that can lead to the server to be shut down. If they don't take an active approach than just a blind eye, it can open that window. I was part of the staff and know a lot of people enjoy it. So I did what I could to keep active in trimming the rmt down so the server can go on. To think posting rmt offers on a open forum from a website that derived from eq players is private, I don't know what to tell you. Having a project you work years on only for it be threatened by people who are making money off your efforts, you will do what you can to protect it.
Overall being part of the staff was fun. I got to meet tons of players I would have never came across as a player and made a lot of cool friendships. I even had a few people offer me better armor/gear than the army issues for my deployment from companies they owned. It really is a cool community outside of the internet trolls, serious drug users and the people who sit there for 8 hrs "tracking" a fucking dragon. So if banning people like Lumie who is doing RMT openly to keep the server going makes me a bad guy, then so be it.
Uh huh, and why don't you say your mage's name? Because you're full of shit and have never grouped with me. You probably should have picked a class that A-team has more than two of. Thanks for proving my point about being toxic, and apparently not too bright, either.
This is the kind of shitty attitude that makes the game not fun for a lot of good people. Your level doesn't make you more entitled to a mob than someone else. A level 60 can equally enjoy the game and earn the same loot. When I was level 60 and trying to afford an 80k spell I'd take any profitable camp I could find, and I didn't care if the mob was level 5.
You can't have competition without drama, and I think a significant portion of P99's raid scene would disappear without competition. Competing with rival guilds is one of the things that makes EQ unique and fun for a lot of people. The GMs mostly acknowledge this, well except for whoever that Rais guy is who went out of his way to dismiss players who enjoy raiding. I'm not sure why anyone who was truly in a GM position would do that.
I have no clue about what you are talking about. Look up all my posts about raiding and you will see that I always stressed that there wouldn't ever be a rotation forced by the staff and always backed it. So I find it hard to believe your claim I dismissed people for raiding. The stupid shit ya, auto fire/ sitting on a fucking spawn for 10 hrs waiting for it to pop, 4am batphones yet staff never did anything about it, because we didn't want to since it was all part of eq.
Good try tho, next time mix in some half truths so it looks good next time.

Well, this is what I was referring to. Tracking and such is part of the raid scene, so you can't say you like raiders and hate people who track dragons, the two things are mutually exclusive. I don't particularly understand your hate either, tracking is basically just pushing a button every 20 seconds while you watch TV or play Hearthstone or whatever. It's a weird thing to hate someone for doing, and even weirder to hear from someone who claims to be a GM.
