oh, and on a side note, the stones werent as a result of "getting lucky on a lottery" each group that participated received a stone. most groups lotto'd it amongst the group. we didnt.

Yes I was expecting (atleast hoping for) a reply. And I was rasing the point because I was curious how such a bullsh*t comment could be defended tbh.

Well, you challanged me to continue, lets continue then, Blood worked for those gold, it was his gold. You went and won a lottery and won HIS gold.

Respec stones should go to people who really need them, even those who cannot afford them. Respec stones are rare, platina is relatively common.
To ungimp the most gimped players is worth tons more for midgard than bringing up a bunch of new crafters IMO.

You asked for it, and besides this post it's in the original spirit of this thread!

bullshit is in the eye of the beholder, I dont feel it's such.

No, as I stated, we didnt win a lottery. the group was given a stone, as one of 45 groups, there were 50 stones. so by your reasoning, we should then have given this away to someone who needed it? why exactly? so they could think about using it after mis-roling their character? how will that benefit the realm? it'll benefit them certainly, but the realm?

Sorry, but I disagree, if someone needs a respec, then they should have to work for it, not be given it.

So one person gains, and a guild loses, yes, I can see where you're coming from here. Had a guild member needed the stone, it would have gone there. Had one of TR been gimped so badly they needed a respec, then we would have sorted that out, but as no one needed it, we put it to better use, Blood is happy, we're happy.

I agree :) I like a good argument as well as the next person, but as always, it comes down to viewpoint. theres no way I'm going to convince you that my viewpoints better than yours, just as theres no way you can convince me that we should have given this stone to someone not known to us.

How can TR getting more high level crafters help Midgard?

Simple, the more of high skilled crafters there are the more competition there will be, resulting in lower prices. If we as an example only had one legendary armour crafter, that person could demand what ever he wanted by having a monopoly. So in a sense TR have, by adding more high level crafters, reduced the price for crafted items.

Ok the Facts

TR had one Stone (which members of TR could use)

the stone can be used once and by only one person

So you are telling me that the stone being used is of more value that the stone being used and 7.5plat of money sat in someone inventory is not greater use??

Stone used is greater than Stone Used and 7.5plat of stored money now being used..

If you agree with that statement then you can only be one of the following:

A) A forum Troll

B)Someone suffering from Sour grapes or envy that you or one of your friends did not get to use the ston for yourselves..

C)Someone who dislikes Blood or TR and are just here to cause trouble

D)a sanctimonious self important Moron that enjoys Whining , moaning and Causing desent in Midgard..

E) Not a member of Midgard and only here to cause trouble..

HOW many times do I have to say this we could have used the stone, some of TR would like a Skill stone and others Realm stone..

But these people gave up stone to benefit ALL of guild when we were offered what we were offered for stone...
SOME people play the game for the benefit of others not worry how leet they are ..


Read posts and comprehend them before replying its called Intelligence!!!

I assume warders did not get enough of the stones they wanted? as most of the guys Whining here are Warders or friends of Warders..... (except Blue Ix who has a meat fetish it seems :) )

None of the guilds that had more than one group there declined the extra stones to give other guilds a chance to get stone they wanted.. If you have a problem with how loot was lottoed then take it up with the hunt leaders.. not whine here like little kids that did not get the latest toys when they wanted them...

I did read it and it didnt change opinion

This is not about the guildleaders. If you want to profilate yourself as hero of the realm by saying you do everything for the bigger purpose, you might as well have left the stones for someone who was gonna use it WITHOUT having any financial extras.

and as i mentioned in another thread, i'm standing up out of principle. I did nor do need any stone or item that dropped.

Aerran Does not try to be a Hero of the realm only people with ego problems do that..

Aerran plays the game to have fun, Help his friends that play his guild and his realm...

He is not a Glory hound , he is not someone who whines here at the slightest thing wrong, he does not think he is Leet or a Realm hero...

and the Intelligence thing does seem to have gone over your head.... draw your own conclusions from that... :)

I know I will not change any of the die hard whiners and self righteous morons that post here. All of the People and guilds I respect in game have no issue with what TR did and that is all that counts..

klav you are either a forum Troll or a self righteous moron.. Your not a very good troll as your comments have no founding on what was written in the posts and are very weak at most..

Why would anyone be jealous of the self proclaimed "leet" members of DAoC , some players are actually Over 12 years old in mental age and play the game to have fun not to be the Leetest Dude in town...

have you been hit by the stupid stick too... ?

I will say it slowly for you......

Members of Talons Reach could have used the Stone and other could have used a realm respec stone..

So we did not decline being in lotto.. we got a stone , we got offered some thing that could better the guild as a whole and took that...

Including all the organising and travelling to and from places Aerran spend around 5-6 hours on raid and lotto..
How much do you think he could have made in DF in that time...??

Was there 8 people from TR at the raid, levels 45+?

If you had a fg of 45+ you actually deserved the right to be in the lotto, and all is well. Can't really expect a DR lotto to be like a guild raid where you don't roll for a drop that you don't need, just to sell it. The stones are a treasure since we've only had one dragon raid yet, which is why some of us are getting upset. After a couple of dragon raids, not only will everyone roll for them, they will also be seen on the trading boards selling for everything between 3-8p or so.

TR didn't bring a full group, but the remainder was filled up of PWers. And as we in PW felt they deserved the stone - bringing the majority in the group, we said the lotto in-group could be skipped.

So if anyone in Midgard should feel "slighted" about that sale they then did, it should be us.
Funnliy enough, we don't see it as a problem at all.
There will be more raids, so more chances to get a stone.

My point excatly...
We did not go into lotto to sell item but in the end selling the stone made TR stronger than using it ourselves...

TR Worked just as hard as the rest of us, if they whanted to Shift+D the danm stone, it is there choice.. don't go whine about some one using there game time in a different way then you.

TR came and did their job and got paid by a stone, that you think you/someone else have greater right to the stone is your problem.

Personally, Id rather more high level crafters than a respecced Warder who wont group with anyone else. With the amount of tailors that are actually quitting, I think its of much greater importance.
