You run into keeps with less numbers right into creep npcs way more often now. Tactically a bad move. Sure you could say it is just all for fun; but most times when freeps got rolled it was due to something like this and pulling the whole keep of npcs.
You stopped moving about, flanking, or doing a lot of your more tactical maneuvers well before I left (trust me I keep track of that stuff). Why? You didn't need to and could still win or the only reason I could think of (since I know you are not a bad or lazy leader) was to give creeps a better chance. Perhaps I am wrong, but I really don't think so. Several times I could see it cost you all a loss on what otherwise would have been an easy victory.
You have been the only freep raid leader (besides wolfie) who I had any respect for. You might not notice it, but you have been throwing advantage out the window for awhile now (or at least you were when I left) and either getting lax or giving your opponents at least a better more fighting chance. The other option was you wren't leading and it was someone with much less skill/experience at the reigns.

No, I said pretty much all along have said classes weren't even close to being even. Skill at this point has little to do with it when you are rank 1-4 and you are fighting classes that are OP to the 'average' creep person at rank 9 (unless you bought all your skills). That doesn't mean creeps are bad or have no skill, just one side is so vastly overpowered they can play sloppy and still kick your butt.
A raid leader that took every advantage freepside, right at this stage of the game, would constantly wipe the creeps all day long. Now if they don't want to use any tactics and rush into your keeps while you have more numbers that doesn't mean creeps can hold their own, just the freep leaders made choices other than to win and beat creeps mercilessly.
Tactics went out the window towards the end (and even now I can look over at my roomies computer while i'm playing rift and can see you all getting your asses kicked time and again). I can see vinny's style has changed or maybe it is as he is saying and someone else with little or lesser experience has taken over which is why you all can win a battle or two out of every 10-15 engagements on average.

But you are right about one thing. The game is broken, but it won't ever be fixed. The game PvMP has been broken since day one. People will always have fun when they play the winning side, but maybe after you are out there longer on the losing side constantly (and by that I mean more than just a few weeks and you start going into years I hope you remember your advice and just leave).

Hey, I have about 1250 POSITIVE posts on the boards.
I think the past 30 posts people could put up with some negativity. If people don't like em meh. Judging from what I heard others say (freep and creep) when they didn't know my other chars were around I didn't have many friends left in the game anyway so no reason to bother with happy go lucky so I just told it like it was.
But I will leave you all alone now. Enjoy....whatever little bit of enjoyment this <shudder> PvMP brings to you.

Heya Jaiyne. I'll be on and off here and there. Sounds like a lot of bleh going on with the need for commendation farming and resets to audacity every season or whatever.
Pew pew you soon
