Re: Why All the Hate?

This is all good stuff! It really is. So lets see if I can hopefully clear some things up. First of all, I think real life analogies work well here. We all wish we had Bill Gates' money. We don't. We didn't take the same risks that he did. Some could even argue he made way more money than he should. In this vien, all I am saying is there have to be ways to deliniate between casual and hardcore players.

I have said in the past that there has to be more to hardcore gaming than just raid, raid, and more raid. I have an example which should be out this week sometime, still working some issues. In Vanguard, there is so much more to a "raid" than just mustering up and slaying dwagon 0711. Not everyone will have the resources to do this.

I also think what Aredhel said is true. Raiding is not all about phat lewtz. It is about doing things to progress your guild into doing bigger and better things.

Again, grouping can be hardcore. However, in my opinion, there is no way to make it as difficult as a raid. I hope to prove that to you all in the coming weeks.

Always Respectfully,
Melchizedek
