Perhaps I was never in far enough to be let in on the ruse. Frankly, Astaroth is a nice guy and pretty knowledgable guy from talking to him. I was in for all of the round 1 WW1sts of VP (yawn) and can say that Ballads derived the strats for Silverwing and Phara, the only things that even required half a brain at the time, based on Beta testing and on the fly repeated pulling of the mob. Every dynamic of the strat was fluid.

The only drama I can add is that Astaroth IRL fucked Laps (former Brig of CL) and Kaasha (head GM) used to fuck Aeralik. According to her, he has an extremely thin penis, referred to in vent as "a pencil dick".

rofl damn laps sure gets around

Another civil discussion on the issue of dev's/GM's locking down their own contested game content in this thread on official forums:

A few people in that thread have suggested that contested mobs should be put on random spawn timers.

That was done in T5, and contested epic mobs are still on random spawn timers today.

If I hit my head on my desk any harder, I would black out.

I think one of the great things about this site is that our dumbest users know things like this.

Did he talk about that? What would bother me more than him doing it is bragging about it.

Idk, 3 people in a row in that thread agree we need random spawn timers, so it must be true we don't currently have them. It's such an important issue that I think the devs should push back the itemization and raid design fixes to allocate the necessary amount of time for this game breaking concern.

I also saw around here somewhere that the devs claim to be starting on the next expansion... what are the odds on them boosting the level cap so as to bury RoK as fast as possible?

Considering March is usually when the patent goes up for the new expansions, I would assume they're working on the next expansion already.

ROFL...yeah that right there is the shit that kills me on the official fourms.. Even trying to have a civil discussion with some of those people. (By that I mean ones who don't come to this site often) Shit like that shows how fuckin clueless some people are yet they gotta add their 2 cents to something..and for some reason SOE listens to them

Actually it doesn't take 24 people to kill avatars. We killed avatars with several people 2-boxing including myself...

It was named billy.

True story !

So what part of that NPU killing contesteds at 4 am or whatever AM or PM is so doubtful that makes u wanna think there is some cheating involved ? I know you guys killed PHH at 5 am one time with them TR's watching

BTW i meant we had 30 members/app not he .. on my one of 5 previous post ..actually there was a times where every member/app logged on at midnight ( was 5am or something ? ) to kill contesteds
