Yeah! So there!... When I was young raider we had to go to and from raids uphill, with no lunch or potty breaks. If you had to pee, you either wore diapers or pee'd in a cup.

You young'ens have it sooooo easy now.

If something is a flame or a whine is always a matter of perception.

neither will often reach the goal they are intended for.

Pissing into the wind usually doesn't reach its goal either.

When I raided 5 nights a week on Befallen I was working 75+ hours a week and had a newborn neither of which has changed. It's not about flexibility, it's about priorities. The raid comes before anything not constituting an emergency.

When I was at the Height of my Hardcore Raiding in Second Dawn, I played no more than 18 Hours a week.

You could clear instances in 3 5 hour sessions, then add in maybe 3 hours +- for contested.

Hardcore Raiding Doesn't need lots of time, it needs flexible time and commitment.

And most guilds do cash split, so people don't need to farm $$ for shit, this isn't wow.

Your wrong, get a clue, period. Also, the good raiders are just better players a lot of the time. Like you for example, I know Im better than you just from reading your posts.

Heres some more facts for ya Pookie! I play 25+ hours a week. ATM, I am not in a raiding guild I am considering rebuilding one. I am retired military so yeah I can shut up and color with the best of em.

Yes you are oh so much better than me! Able to subjugate your immense ego to the minions of the dark. You crack me up Ishbu, always have. I used to love to read your bullshit posts on SOE forums to see how pathetic you could be, and by the gods, I think you have exceeded even that monumental stupidity here.

Yes Ishbu, you are better than me, but at what is the question. I await your next missive with the anticipation only previously felt for anal leakage.

So you play 25hours a week and cant kill half the stuff I do in less time? What was the point in bringing that up?

All I can find in your post here is, you calling me pathetic because......well...you dont have a reason.

If you would look back, I clearly said MOST OF the time raiders are better players. Its true, they generally know more about their class and how to maximize it than non raiders do. Its the nature of the beast and again your a moron who is only fooling yourself to think its not true. There is a reason we are often refered to as mix/maxers, its not just a flashy title.

So now not only have you evidentally condeded the fact you were dead wrong and are giving up your original arguement that all casual players can be raiders (wich you should because it was just plain incorrect), but now your upset that you made such a foolish comment so your going to call names with no backing on them.

BTW since this obvioulsy is something you cant realize with your limited understanding, a guild that raids does not make for a guild full of raiders. There are plenty of casual gamers who do some dabbling in raiding, that doesnt make them a raider. There are days where I dont log in or play less than an hour, does that make me a casual player? No, it doesnt. A raider actaully raids, they raid all the content, they raid first and foremost. A raider is not satisfied by not raiding the best stuff because that is what raiders do.

This game is great in the respect it lets non raiders get a taste of the raiding scene. It is extremely friendly in the regards that non raiders can put very limited amounts of time towards killing a few instanced raids mobs to get some nice pieces of gear. But just because that is available does not make people raiders.

EDIT - Oh and what am I better than you at? This game. Thats not really argueable since i can kill everything you can and more. Thats the only non opinion based thing that someone can do in game. You can say your better because your guild is about being friend first, thats an opinion and doesnt matter at all to me. The only thing that is compareable between guilds that is concrete is what they can and cant kill. I can kill more than Bane, period.

Thanks for the anal leakage, more of your crap. Anyone can be a raider in this game. You are living proof of that. And by the way its min-maxers isnt it? I love raiding, I am not defined by it.

I certainly hope you can "kill" more than Bane, especially since we stopped raiding at EOF release. We have about 6 active members right now so bully for you.

Praps you should go post in that special section of the board you want for others. Oh, and to reply in the tone of your posts. Nyaah nyaah, nannie nanny boo boo, I am so elite.
