Funny, why do whats left of hardcore guilds on EQ2 feel the need to defend thier Scumbags?

Low recruitment rates?

Damn, I actually read that entire thing.

You know that's gotta be mangina.

I'd give this thread six stars for irrefutable facts and Sherlock Holmes quality investigation, but sadly, this software limits me to five.

That's shitty... Especially since her new character's name is my real first name. Imagine my shock when I saw it on a thread.

BTW, on the Grotrot drama in the thread - I can confirm the Grotrot would have been wasted on a shaman.

I'm a Defiler, and transmuted mine a few months ago. The problem is the weapon is listed as Great Spear, but does slashing damage. Shaman don't have innate slashing skill. I was able to equip it fine, but when I tried to hit with it, it did use a slashing animation, like I was swinging a sword, but gave me skill based error message on every swing, saying that I lacked the skill to slash or something. It was wierd, I could agro a mob by swinging at it, but never connect. None of the posts I ever made about this on the SoE forums resulted in a fix, to the best of my knowledge. So I finally put the thing to its highest and best use, and just transmuted it. The thing I really liked about the Grotrot was its graphic - damn thing looked like I was wielding a P-38 military can opener on a stick. Too bad it never worked for shaman, however.

I've tried almost every KoS two hander - best for shaman, by a long shot, are the 2 hander from princes with the same graphic as The Wurmslayer, and the Vraksakin Claw Club. The Club is prolly the best two hander in game for any class that can equip it.

Excellent post!

Though I must admit I have been tempted to transfer a toon when I saw a lost soul on crushbone for 5plat and losers on Blackburrow selling them for 100plat.

Then I realized I'd be paying $50.00 to complete a collection quest.

I smashed my face into my keyboard a few times and haven't thought about it since.

she was an app and anyone who goes to that great of a length to track someone down including rl information is obsessive

If there were a nobel prize for flames. This would be a shoe in.

We generally wait to find someone out for ourselves before jumping to conclusions. I'm sorry if your guild is in witchhunt mode. People are generally bitter towards old guildies (not always) take for instance LFG, who it really didn't take much for disso to act like he'd never been a good guildie of theirs... I have no idea if he was or wasn't but from their reaction it didn't take long for them to disown them.

I would think most guilds don't go to such extreme lenghts to track someone down. Generally if someone is a nuisance they will just be glad to get rid of them. No, sir idiot, while we do take care of our own, we don't "defend scumbags," but we do give people a chance to prove/disprove themselves. Maybe in a reversed role you would be grateful for it.

The dude was very quick to point out that he had never been victimized by her tendancy to uh "cyber." I just thought that was funny (the whole post did have me rolling by the way don't get me wrong, but I'm not going to immediately crucify an app based on what another guild says). I'm sorry pheonix elite got taken by her, but really that's your bad for letting people walk all over you and having a crappy loot system if that was such a big problem.
